I am trying to invoke a simple sub process from a main process using the below mentioned code using *jbpm-jpdl-3.2.3*:

public class TestSubProcess implements ActionHandler{
Token superProcessToken = executionContext.getToken();
ProcessDefinition subProcessDefinition = ProcessDefinition
                              .parseParZipInputStream(zipInputStream);        
ProcessInstance subProcessInstance = superProcessToken.createSubProcessInstance(subProcessDefinition);
subPorcessInstance.getRootToken().signal();
}

I have a very simple sub process mentioned below:
<process-definition xmlns="" name="user_sub_process">
      <start-state>
            <transition to="CustomComp" />
      </start-state>
      
      <node  name="CustomComp">
            <action class="com.cts.action.CustomAction" />
            <transition to="end" />
      </node>
      <end-state name="end" />
      
</process-definition>
 
This my CustomAction class in sub process .
public class CustomAction implements ActionHandler {
      /**
       * long serialVersionUID
       */
      private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
      private static final Logger log = Logger.getLogger(CustomAction.class
                  .getName());
      public void execute(ExecutionContext executionContext) throws Exception {
            log.info("executing custom node:::");
            executionContext.leaveNode();
      }
}
It executes the custom node (that is it fires the sub process) and then gives the exception.
*ERROR [GraphElement] - action threw exception: couldn't signal without specifying  a leaving transition : transition is null*

It seems that jbpm is trying to force a transition after reaching the end state.I am not sure that why it is trying to signal after reaching the end state.
*The same thing works if I do this in the main process that is by using process state:
*<process-state name="process-state">
            <sub-process name="user_sub_process" binding="late"></sub-process>
            <transition to="end"></transition>
      </process-state>
I am not sure that what am I doing wrong out here.
