[jboss-user] [jBPM] - Sharing variables across jbpm processes

Richard Evans [https://community.jboss.org/people/r3vans] created the discussion "Sharing variables across jbpm processes" To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/737909#737909 -------------------------------------------------------------- Hello there. I want to define in one place a setting that is used as input to timer events in many processes. The value will change from environment to environment so I want to localise it. I guess that global variables should work... I defined the setting in the timer - Timer Delay: #{statusPollInterval} I then tried to set the global variable.   - kSession.getGlobal.set("statusPollInterval", "2s") didn't seem to work   - kRuntime.setGlobal.set("statusPollInterval", "2s") gave me an *unexpected global* message - The following spring config also give unexpected global. <drools:script> <drools:set-global identifier="statusPollInterval"> <bean class="java.lang.String"> <constructor-arg value ="2s"/> </bean> </drools:set-global> </drools:script> Q1. Is a global variable the best approach for shared settings like this? Q2. If so, what am I doing wrong? Do I have to declare the global in a drools:resource? I have searched previous discussions on globals but have not managed to get the answer. I am new to jbpm so would be grateful for anywone with the patience to assume little prior knowledge. My configuration is currently all in spring config.
