Umar Ashfaq [http://community.jboss.org/people/umarm] created the discussion "How to read external parameters from within a process?" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/641043#641043 -------------------------------------------------------------- Here's my code that starts a process: StatefulKnowledgeSession ksession = kbase.newStatefulKnowledgeSession();  Map<String, Object> params = new HashMap<String, Object>(); params.put("doctorsDecision", "L1"); ksession.startProcess("MyProcess", params); And here's how I expect this variable to be available in MyProcess. This is the Action of one of my script tasks in MyProcess: System.out.println("doctorsDecision: "+doctorsDecision); Is this the right way to access external variables from within a process? P.S. When I run my application, the process definition is never added to knowledge base because jBPM doesn't seem to recognize doctorsDecision variable. How can I tell jBPM that this variable is external and it's value will be provided on runtime? I am using BPMN2 files. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/641043#641043] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
