WorkflowForge

A powerful, extensible workflow orchestration framework for .NET applications. WorkflowForge enables you to build, execute, and manage complex workflows with support for dependency injection, logging, resilience patterns, and comprehensive observability.

What's new in 2.2.0

  • WorkflowForge 2.2.0 — see CHANGELOG on GitHub.
  • All packages ship a single netstandard2.0 lib asset.
  • BREAKING: IWorkflowExecutionContext.Services (IFoundryServices) is a new interface member. Custom IWorkflowFoundry / IWorkflowExecutionContext implementations must expose it; return new FoundryServices().
  • BREAKING: IWorkflowForgeLogger.IsEnabled(WorkflowForgeLogLevel) is a new interface member. Derive from the new WorkflowForgeLoggerBase to inherit an implementation.
  • BREAKING: the foundry now disposes only what it owns. Reset() / Dispose() no longer dispose caller-supplied operations or middleware; register foundry-owned disposables on Services.
  • BREAKING: removed the undocumented WorkflowForgeLoggers façade; use ConsoleLogger, DI, or Serilog/MEL.
  • BREAKING: PropertyNameConstants and WorkflowLogMessageConstants are internal.
  • Fixed: retried operations no longer bypass inner middleware — timeout, logging, validation and persistence were all skipped on every retried attempt.
  • Fixed: LoggingMiddleware is no longer inert under default options; UseLogging() emits again and failures are always logged.
  • Fixed: WorkflowTimeoutMiddleware now cancels the workflow instead of waiting for it to finish.

WorkflowForge 2.2.0 (2026-09-15)

BREAKING
- IWorkflowExecutionContext.Services (IFoundryServices) is a new interface member. Custom IWorkflowFoundry / IWorkflowExecutionContext implementations must expose it; return new FoundryServices().
- IWorkflowForgeLogger.IsEnabled(WorkflowForgeLogLevel) is a new interface member. Derive from the new WorkflowForgeLoggerBase to inherit an implementation.
- IFoundryServices.DisposeAll() is a new interface member.
- The foundry now disposes only what it owns. Reset()/Dispose() no longer dispose caller-supplied operations or middleware; register foundry-owned disposables on Services.
- Removed the WorkflowForgeLoggers static facade, and the public PropertyNameConstants / WorkflowLogMessageConstants (now internal).

Added
- WorkflowForgeLoggerBase: optional base class supplying a MinimumLevel-driven IsEnabled.
- Foundry-scoped Services bag with dispose-on-lease-end semantics.

Fixed
- Retried operations no longer bypass inner middleware (timeout, logging, validation, persistence were all skipped on retry).
- LoggingMiddleware is no longer inert under default options; UseLogging() emits again and failures are always logged.
- WorkflowTimeoutMiddleware now actually cancels the workflow instead of waiting for it to finish.
- All extension packages ship a single netstandard2.0 asset again, so ILRepack-merged libraries and their declared dependencies can no longer disagree.
