Improve variable support ------------------------ Key: JBPM-613 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPM-613 Project: JBoss jBPM Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Core Engine Reporter: J.Enrique Ruiz Assigned To: Tom Baeyens Priority: Minor Hi, The JPDL variable element can be used to share info with a new process instance created in a process-state. Sometimes, it is interesting to set the value of a variable in the JPDL, for example: <process-state name="cms"> ... <variable name="documentType" access="read" value="RTF" /> ... </process-state> Currently, we have a ActionHandler that has been defined in the node-enter event. This ActionHandler puts the values in the variable map of the parent process instance, but the new feature can simplify it. Best regards.
