Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  Users of WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus v7 and Business
  Process Manger v7 and v8 who make use of subflows in their
  applications
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  When a user attempted to deploy and run their application a
  NoSuchMethodError exception was seen in the log and the flow
  failed to build. This was caused by the Node.getNodeProperties
  method having the wrong definition at compile time.
  

Problem conclusion

• The code has been changed to ensure that the
  Node.getNodeProperties method has the correct definition at
  compile time and the flow builds without error.
  
  
  This code fix was targeted to be included in the following fix
  packs:
  
  7.5.1 Fix Pack 3 (v7.5.1.3)
  8.0.1 Fix Pack 4 (v8.0.1.4)
