The Workflow Way (e-book)

Workflow Foundation brings a new programming model to the developer's arsenal. Like any new programming model, starting from the good old procedural programming that provided as with methods and function, to the modish parallel and functional programming, the Workflow programming model requires some shifting in the way the developers thinks and designs solutions. In addition to that, WF of .NET 4 is completely redesigned and one of Microsoft's main concerns is to make it a standard part of every developer's toolkit.

To help in this endeavour, Microsoft published a free e-book called 'The Workflow Way'. In the 25 pages of this book you can read how you can employ the Workflow Foundation and get the best things out of it.

The workflow way does not include state machine workflows in it's path.
That's sad...

WF4 does not include state machine support as part of the core framework. There is however an official Microsoft open source project in codeplex for state machines (and some other goodies). The current version is CTP1 and you can find it here: http://wf.codeplex.com
