Is there a way to turn jBPM  autowiring off, at least for specific classes? -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/533369#533369] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
