Interface Route

All Known Implementing Classes:
Route.Default, Route.Flag, Route.Num, Route.Tag
@Experimental public sealed interface Route permits Route.Tag, Route.Num, Route.Flag, Route.Default
A value on a workflow edge, and the value a node emits to select which of its outgoing edges are followed. An edge fires when the value it carries matches one the node emitted.

On the wire a route is a bare scalar (a string, integer or boolean), and Route.Default is the DEFAULT_ROUTE_SENTINEL string.
