[jboss-user] [JBoss jBPM] - Transient variables between process and subprocess II

Hi, why is there not the same functionality for transient variables as for persistent ones when copying variables from a superprocess to a subprocess (process state)? I have seen this thread http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=70407 The proposed solution as seen in jira http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPM-399 is implemented in jbpm 3.1.2 that I am actually using. I think this solution is simple but does not fit for the most common case, that a superprocess calls a common suprocess and the subprocess does not know anything about the superprocess. More specific, there could be different superprocesses with different transient variable names. These superprocesses may call a general subprocess... Using the present solution forces the subprocess to know about all possible variablenames of all possible superprocesses - that's really bad! What can we do? Is it difficult to implement similar code for transient variables as you did for persistent ones? | // loop over all the variable accesses | | Iterator iter = variableAccesses.iterator(); | | while (iter.hasNext()) { | | VariableAccess variableAccess = (VariableAccess) iter.next(); | | // if this variable access is readable | | if (variableAccess.isReadable()) { | | // the variable is copied from the super process variable name | | // to the sub process mapped name | | String variableName = variableAccess.getVariableName(); | | Object value = superContextInstance.getVariable(variableName, superProcessToken); | | String mappedName = variableAccess.getMappedName(); | | log.debug("copying super process var '"+variableName+"' to sub process var '"+mappedName+"': "+value); | | if (value!=null) { | | subContextInstance.setVariable(mappedName, value); | | } | | } | | } | | Should I open a jira issue? Please give me a hint for a good approach to solve this problem.. Best regards Harry View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3974445#...
