Alan Lenton is listed twice in the second paragraph of the acknowledgments. Remove the first because "Alan Lenton" is correct after "Gregor Hohpe".

I'm missing the reference [Brooks74] in the references section.
On page 286 there is only BPMN, BrownEllis04 and Butek03; the reference above isn't cited.
Note from the Author or Editor:
Page 9: Replace [Brooks74] by [Brooks95]
Page 286 (References): between [BPMN] and [BrownEllis04] add:
[Brooks95]

The sentence says "Its purpose is to provide interoperability (connectivity, data mapping, and routing) combined...", but it should be "...interoperability (connectivity, data TRANSFORMATION, and routing) combined..." as noted on page 48 and on page 296 glossary: ESB.
Note from the Author or Editor:

The BPEL example uses invalid XML comments (they should start with "<!--" instead of "<!-"). This happens 4 times!
In addition, the 7 occurrences of dots ("..."; with and without quotation marks) are all placeholders for concrete stuff so that a proportional font such as "..." would be better for them.

Of course, the service should have the customer id as an additional parameter, which has to be used internally to identify the customer.
Thus, the code should be as follows
(custID 5 times with or without comma added)
:
string changeAddress (custID, newAddress)
{
oldAddress = backend_1.getAddress(custID);
status = backend_1.changeAddress(custID,newAddress);
if (status == failure) {
return "couldn't modify address in backend 1";
}
status = backend_2.changeAddress(custID,newAddress);
if (status == failure) {
// compensation: restore old address to keep consistency
status = backend_1.changeAddress(custID,oldAddress);
if (status == failure) {
fatalError(...);
}
return "couldn't modify address in backend 2";
}
return "OK";
}
In addition, use proportional font for the ellipsis (...) in the listing.
Note from the Author or Editor:
please care for exact indents.
Keep them just as they are.
Just add "custID" or "custID," 5 times.
Just use proportional font for ellipsis. |

Note that Figure 18-13 is a screen dump by me (the author),
