public class DecisionGateway extends MultiDecisionTask
Chooses a next element in a `Process` by evaluating a series of criteria against the `Process.state` and choosing the element associated with the criteria that matched, or a `defaultElement` if none of the criteria match.

  - ### setCriteriaMap

    public DecisionGateway setCriteriaMap(Map<String,Criteria> criteriaMap) throws IllegalStateException
    Deprecated.
    In favor of `decisionList` as of SmartGWT release 12.1
    A Map from `ProcessElement.ID` to Criteria that will cause this ProcessElement to be chosen as the next element if the criteria matches.

    If no criteria is matched the next element is `defaultElement` or the workflow is finished.

    Data values in this criteria prefixed with "$" will be treated as dynamic expressions as detailed in `TaskInputExpression`. Specifically, this means that for simple criteria, any property value that is a String and is prefixed with "$" will be assumed to be an expression, and for AdvancedCriteria, the same treatment will be applied to `Criterion.value`.

    Note that dynamic expressions starting with "$input" are not applicable for an decisionGateway but "$inputRecord" can be used for direct reference to `Process.state`.

    This property supports `DynamicCriteria` - use `Criterion.valuePath` to refer to values in the `Process.ruleScope`.

    Parameters:
      `criteriaMap` - New criteriaMap value. Default value is null
    Returns:
      `DecisionGateway` instance, for chaining setter calls
    Throws:
      `IllegalStateException` - this property cannot be changed after the underlying component has been created

  - ### getCriteriaMap

    public LinkedHashMap getCriteriaMap()
    Deprecated.
    in favor of `MultiDecisionTask.getDecisionList()`.
    A Map from `ID` to Criteria that will cause this ProcessElement to be chosen as the next element if the criteria matches.
    Returns:
      LinkedHashMap<String,Criteria>

  - ### setDefaultElement

    public void setDefaultElement(ProcessElement defaultElement) throws IllegalStateException
    Throws:
      `IllegalStateException`
