In this lesson we are going to understand the concepts to work with a state-machine workflow. Some specific activities like State activity, Event Driven Activity and Set State Activity are used to work with state-machine workflows. We are going to learn how to use them creating the workflow to our Page-flow solution. The workflow to the page-flow solution will be a workflow to create an order and selected the payment type, with that we are going to use the concepts of state-machine workflow.

Windows Workflow Foundation is part of the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.
