Usage
This activity is typically used to output debug information like variable values, object properties etc. during the execution of a workflow.
Once your workflow runs smoothly, consider removing the DebugActivities you used during design. They are lean but they still consume resources! |
Example
Output the number of MetaClasses that derive (direct and indirect) from the MetaClass of a given object.
