Hi Paul,
This is because CompositeEntity.getEntity(String) assumes an relative input
name. So if you want to start your search from the toplevel, then you can omit
the toplevel name. I assume, in your case, this would be
"parameter-writing-sample-1".

Here's a newbie question. I haven't been able to figure out how to use
CompositeEntity.getEntity() by passing anything other than the simple
name of the entity.
E.g. When I parse the attached workflow and ask for
toplevel.getEntity("Expression6") I get back an entity. But, when I ask
for the entity using the full name of the entity
".parameter-writing-sample-1.Expression6" I get nothing back. Is there
any possibility that "Expression6" won't uniquely name my entity? I
assume that yes there is a possibility and so that's why I'm trying to
use the full name of the entity instead of just the simple name.
