[jboss-user] [JBoss jBPM] - Transient variables disappear when signal into end-state

here's the background to my problem: I have the following process definition START----->TASK-NODE----->NODE(with custom action)------>END here's the code to the custom action class: | public void execute(ExecutionContext executionContext) throws Exception { | //check if TEST mode is one | ContextInstance contextInstance = executionContext.getContextInstance(); | String testMode = (String)contextInstance.getTransientVariable(JbpmConstants.TEST_KEY); | | //TEST MODE OFF | if(null == testMode) { | executionContext.leaveNode(JbpmConstants.TRANSITION_GO_NEXT); | } | //TEST MODE ON | else { | | //set node name in as both key and value | contextInstance.setTransientVariable(JbpmConstants.NODE_UPDATE, JbpmConstants.NODE_UPDATE); | String exceptionFlag = (String)contextInstance.getTransientVariable(JbpmConstants.TEST_UPDATE_EXCEPTION); | if(null == exceptionFlag) { | //no exception | executionContext.leaveNode(JbpmConstants.TRANSITION_GO_NEXT); | } | else { | throw new Exception(JbpmConstants.TEST_UPDATE_EXCEPTION); //test for exception | } | } | } | } | and here is the code for my junit test: | . | . | . | _token.signal(); | _activatedNode = (String)_token.getProcessInstance().getContextInstance().getTransientVariable(JbpmConstants.NODE_UPDATE); | assertNotNull(_activatedNode); | assertEquals(_activatedNode, JbpmConstants.NODE_UPDATE); | The idea is I want to test to make sure my custom-node is activated after signalling from the TASK-NODE, and I'm using transient variables to test this result. So far this has work with other workflows where a signal of a task node leads to another task node (i.e. not end state). However once I signal from a task-node into an eventual end-state, I find that all my transient variables are gone. I've also tried to print out all variables (transient and non-transient) after the signal() call, but both maps are null. Does anyone know why this is so?
