To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/548693#548693 -------------------------------------------------------------- Hi All, I was using the "*SubProcessDocument.jpdl.xml"* and "*SubProcessReview.jpdl.xml*" from the "examples\src\org\jbpm\examples\subprocess\outcomeactivity" given in the jbpm-4.3 examples. In my sample program I have done *ProcessInstance processInstance =**+executionService+**+.startProcessInstanceByKey("SubProcessDocument");+*+** + *+assertNotNull(processInstance.findActiveExecutionIn("review"));+*** *+processInstance = executionService.signalExecutionById(processInstance.getId());+* +*executionService*+ *.findProcessInstanceById(processInstance.getId());*+*assertNotNull(processInstance.findActiveExecutionIn(*+ +*"next step"));*+ ** +So the transition is happend from *"review"* to *"next step"* instead of waiting for the output from the *SubProcessReview* subprocess.+ +Is this an expected result ?+ +or whether the main execution should not be able to transition from subprocess state to next state untill and unless the subprocess execution is completed?+ -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/548693#548693] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
