How to create a simple waiting workflow

How to create a simple testing workflow in jBPM5/BPMN with a simple wait state, waiting for my explicit signal to continue.

The simplest solution possible.

Reason: I am learning jBPM5 and I want to play with things like ksession.getProcessInstances() etc. but so far all my workflows run through before I can do any run time inspection on them.

What is the closest to jPDL State node?

I have something like this workflow in my mind:

I tryed "Wait State" from my jBPM plugin palette, as is on my screenshot above, but there is no documentation to it. By probing workflow source code I found it maps to BPMN intermediateCatchEvent and it expect some Drools (?) condition. Angain, there is only a little documentation to it.

 

Any help welcome!
