I found more details on the situation. After a workflow is loaded from an xml storage, the workflow is verified:
$workflow->verify(); in which is applied the visitor pattern with the "ezcWorkflowVisitorNodeCollector" class, that re-orders the ID's, there by loosing the Id defined in the XML. It would be nice to attach a "oid" property to the node, a static identifier. i'm working around this. 2010/1/26 José Moreira <matrixowns...@gmail.com>: > I found the reason.
