Jim Beam [https://community.jboss.org/people/jamesbeam] created the discussion "Is Drools/JBPM Tooling for Eclipse broken with JPAKnowledgeService?" To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/802472#802472 -------------------------------------------------------------- I am trying to use the Drools/JBPM tooling to test a simple program with jBPM 5.4.  I tried this in Eclipse Helios and Juno. If I create the ksession using kbase.newStatefulKnowledgeSession() the drools views work as expected - the process and process instances show the correct information (after I click on the ksession in the variables window of course).  However, this does NOT work if I create the the ksession using the JPAKnowledgeService. Is this a known issue/limitation?  Am I missing something? code:     KnowledgeBuilder kbuilder = KnowledgeBuilderFactory.newKnowledgeBuilder();     kbuilder.add(ResourceFactory.newClassPathResource("Test.bpmn"),ResourceTypoe.BPMN2);     Environment env = KnowledgeBaseFactory.newEnvironment();     env.set(EnvironmentName.ENTITY_MANAGER_FACTORY,emf);     StatefulKnowledgeSession ksession = kbase.newStatuefulKnowledgeSession(); *  <-- THIS WORKS FINE*      --- BUT --   StatefulKnowledgeSession ksession = JPAKnowledgeService.newStatefulKnowledgeSession(kbase,null,env);*  <---THIS DOES NOT* Note, when I use the JPAKnowledgeService, my app does function correctly (I see the session being updated in the database, etc). Also, I tried creating the first ksession above first (calling it ksession2) and then setting ksession2=ksession, and everything works until the assignment, then the tooling stops responding. Any thoughts on how to get this to work with -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/802472#802472] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
