Hi

I start a process with variables like this

Map<String, Object> variables = new HashMap<String, Object>();
variables.put("logNumber", logNumber);

ProcessInstance processInstance = ProcessEngine.getExecutionService().startProcessInstanceByKey("myProcess", variables,businessKey);

after that, at some other point of my application i want to find if there is any execution that is running and has a specific value in some of the variables; ritght now i have this:

List<ProcessInstance> instances = ProcessEngineProxy.getExecutionService().createProcessInstanceQuery().processDefinitionId("myProcess").notSuspended().list();
if ((instances != null) && (!instances.isEmpty())) {
     for (ProcessInstance processInstance : instances) {
          processInstance.???????
     }
}

but i am at a lost here; how do i retrieve the variables from each processInstance object ?? there seems to be no method to recover that map

please help, i am really new to this jbpm stuff

thanks
