How to get data from Multiple-instance subprocess node?

created by Evgene Ostapenko in jBPM - View the full discussion

I have a Multiple-instance node for which i have specified CollectionExpression and VariableName parameters:

 

CollectionExpression: list

VariableName: item

 

After starting a system creates several subproceses. Each of them can access its own element from the collection by using a variable given as VariableName. I pass an Object elements in collection and use such parameter mapping:

 


Sub-process variableProcess variable
username                    item.username

 

 

It works. I can use "username" in the subprocess. But when i tried to return its value to the main process and set a result mapping

 

 

Sub-process variableProcess variable
username                    item.username

 

i get the message at start of the application:

 

There is no ID/IDREF binding for IDREF 'item.username'.

 

After executing a subprocess, exception happens:

 

ould not find variable scope for variable item.username

when trying to complete SubProcess node Sub-Process

Continuing without setting variable.

Could not find variable scope for variable item.outcoming_doc_id

when trying to complete SubProcess node Sub-Process

Continuing without setting variable.

java.lang.NullPointerException

How can i write a working result mapping in this case?
