[jboss-user] [JBoss jBPM] - JBPM Timer Problem

[avivstav]

Hi 
I try to creater simple flow including Timer:

<process-definition name="testprocess3">
  | 
  |   <start-state name='start'>
  |     <transition to='wait' />
  |   </start-state>
  | 
  |     <state name='wait'>
  |             <timer name='reminder'
  |                  duedate='5 seconds'
  |                  repeat='5 seconds'
  |                  transition='time out'>
  |                  <action class=MyActionHandler' />
  |             </timer>
  |             <transition to='wait2'/>
  |     </state>
  | 
  |     <state name='wait2'>        
  |          <transition to='end'/>
  |     </state>
  | 
  |   <end-state name='end' />
  | </process-definition>

And run it from My Test class as follows:

public void processTimer() {
  | 
  |             JbpmContext jbpmContext = jbpmConfiguration.createJbpmContext();
  |             try {
  | 
  |               GraphSession graphSession = jbpmContext.getGraphSession();
  | 
  |               ProcessDefinition processDefinition =
  |                   graphSession.findLatestProcessDefinition("testprocess3");
  | 
  |               ProcessInstance processInstance =
  |                   new ProcessInstance(processDefinition);
  | 
  |               Token token = processInstance.getRootToken();
  |               assertEquals("start", token.getNode().getName());
  | 
  |               token.signal();
  | 
  |               token.signal();
  |             }
  |             finally {
  |                 jbpmContext.close();
  |             }
  |       }

The action class is implemented as follows:

public class MyActionHandler implements ActionHandler {    
  |   
  |   public void execute(ExecutionContext executionContext) {
  |       System.out.println("Inside Action handler...");
  |   }
  | }


The first signal() advance from start to wait state which suppose to activate the Timer task every 5 seconds and run the Action class
It looks the Timer is never activated at all.
Any Idea why? 
How exactlly Timers works, is it forked from the main process?


I add to jbpm.cfg.xml the following entries:

<jbpm-configuration>
  |   <jbpm-context>

  |   </jbpm-context>
  |
