TaskHubClient.CreateOrchestrationInstanceAsync() called within an orchestration seems to hang

Hi,

So, I’ll explain my scenario. I have an orchestration (let’s call it ValidationOrchestration) that does some validations based on an event received on the service bus (my application sends a request event on the service bus for another application and is expecting a response at some point in time). If the validations pass, I create another type of orchestration (let’s call it ProcessingOrchestration) using TaskClient.CreateOrchestrationInstanceAsync(). I am doing this because I want to seperate the validation code from the processing code. I thought it would work but it seems that the ValidationOrchestration instance is waiting on the ProcessingOrchestration it started to complete. I would be expecting this behaviour with CreateSubOrchestrationInstance. I want the ValidationOrchestration to start the ProcessingOrchestration and then complete. Did I do it right?

Thank you

@cgillum So, to give you a feedback, I used a TaskActivity to wrap my call to CreateOrchestrationInstanceAsync() as you suggested and it worked. Thanks again for your help.

It is clearer now. Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation.
