I can't find any documentation on how to dinamically create a task instance at runtime. So the code below (and in previous post) is fruit of hours spend in trying ... I achieved something that (seems to) works. And this is the result. Maybe this is not the correct way, so any help needed!! <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | | <process-definition | xmlns="urn:jbpm.org:jpdl-3.1" name="Interpello"> | <swimlane name="startingUser"> | <assignment expression="user(admin)"></assignment> | </swimlane> | <start-state name="start"> | <transition name="" to="inizioInterpello"></transition> | </start-state> | <end-state name="end1"></end-state> | <task-node name="verificaFinale"> | <task name="verifica finale" swimlane="startingUser"></task> | <transition name="finito" to="end1"></transition> | <transition name="ripeti" to="inizioInterpello"></transition> | </task-node> | <task-node name="inizioInterpello"> | <task name="inizio interpello" swimlane="startingUser"></task> | <event type="node-leave"> | <action name="actionIstruttoriaInterpello" class="it.unict.interpello.IstruttoriaInterpello"></action> | </event> | <transition name="Convoca Interpello" to="chiusuraInterpello"></transition> | </task-node> | <task-node name="tCompDoc"> | </task-node> | <task-node name="chiusuraInterpello"> | <task name="Chiusura interpello" swimlane="startingUser"></task> | <event type="node-leave"> | <action name="actionChiudiInterpello" class="it.unict.interpello.IstruttoriaInterpello"></action> | </event> | <transition name="procedi alla verifica finale" to="verificaFinale"></transition> | </task-node> | <process-state name="process1"></process-state> | <super-state name="super1"></super-state> | </process-definition> as you can see in the xml, I created a node-leave action handler, and I call the same class (for testing purpose only) on leaving InizioInterpello and on leaving ChiusuraInterpello. Below you can read the code of the action handler. When I execute the InizioInterpello task the code is executed: I can see the output (System.out) and when I show the task list (context.getProcessInstance(processInstanceId).getTaskMgmtInstance().getTaskInstances()) of the process instance I see a task for every user. But If I execute ChiusuraInterpello I can't see no output, no new task instance were created ... it seems that my action is ignored at all. But the task is closed correctly. package it.unict.interpello; | | | import it.unict.consulta.ManagerBeansProxy; | import it.unict.consulta.driver.data.IDocente; | import it.unict.consulta.driver.manager.IEducationManager; | | import java.util.Collection; | | import org.jbpm.graph.exe.ExecutionContext; | import org.jbpm.graph.exe.Token; | import org.jbpm.graph.node.TaskNode; | import org.jbpm.taskmgmt.def.Task; | import org.jbpm.taskmgmt.exe.TaskInstance; | import org.jbpm.taskmgmt.exe.TaskMgmtInstance; | | public class IstruttoriaInterpello implements org.jbpm.graph.def.ActionHandler | { | ManagerBeansProxy mbProxy = null; | | public void execute(ExecutionContext executionContext) throws Exception | { | System.out.println("qqqqq***********************************************************************"); | System.out.println("*** I can see this only when leaving InizioInterpello, but nothing is shown when executing ChiusuraInterpello ***"); | System.out.println("***********************************************************************"); | System.out.println("***********************************************************************"); | System.out.println("***********************************************************************"); | System.out.println("***********************************************************************"); | | mbProxy = new ManagerBeansProxy(); | IEducationManager edu = mbProxy.getMEducation(); | | if (edu == null) | throw new RuntimeException("EducationManager non disponibile"); | | try | { | // determine the sets of users | Collection<IDocente> lDoc = edu.listaDocenti(); | | if (lDoc == null || lDoc.size() == 0) | throw new RuntimeException("Nessun docente"); | | // for each user creates a personal task instance | for (IDocente d : lDoc) | { | String uname = d.getUsername(); | createAndAssignTask(uname, executionContext); | } | } | catch (Exception ex) | { | System.out.println(ex); | createAndAssignTask("admin", executionContext); | } | } | | public void createAndAssignTask(String user, ExecutionContext executionContext) | { | Token token = null; | TaskMgmtInstance tmi = null; | TaskNode taskNode = null; | | try | { | token = executionContext.getToken(); | tmi = executionContext.getTaskMgmtInstance(); | taskNode = (TaskNode) executionContext.getNode(); | | // create the new task instance, a clone of tCompDoc | Task doCompilaDocumento = taskNode.getTask("tCompDoc"); | TaskInstance tCompDoc = tmi.createTaskInstance(doCompilaDocumento, token); | | // set the name of the task, the actor that this task is assigned to, and set the creation date | tCompDoc.setName("consulta: convocazione " + user); | tCompDoc.setActorId(user); | tCompDoc.setCreate(token.getEnd()); | | // build a variable | tCompDoc.setVariableLocally("XXX"+user, ""); | // bind the newly created task instance to the task. | tmi.addTaskInstance(tCompDoc); | // print some outputs | System.out.println("***********************************************************************"); | System.out.println("creato: " + tCompDoc); | System.out.println("***********************************************************************"); | } catch (Exception ex) | { | ex.printStackTrace(); | } | } | | } | What you say about the fork is correct, I think. But Actually I don't know how to bind the newly created task instance to the rest of the process. Infact the code that create the task doesn't do this. Any idea on this?
