How do I know which one to signal. I want to retrieve exactly where I am in a overall process at any one time i.e. which nodes I am at in all execution threads of the process. I am currently performing something like this | Token token = processInstance.getRootToken() | String nodeName = token.getNode().getName() ; | Obviously though this is only any good if there is only one route through the process. I would like to return a list of tokens and the associated node name they are currently at. The reason I am doing this is as follows. I have a client/server setup. The server component is an EJB wrapping the jbpm in a command pattern. So for example the client would send a SignalProcessDTO holding the transition name, processInstanceId etc to the server. The server will detect the type of payload and run a signal process command. The signal process command will use the info in the DTO to get the process instance and then perform the signal. I am delivering an adapter jar to the client (a web app). The adapter makes the interface to the server simple. Through the adapter the client is exposed to a very simple API. Essentially it allows them to say one of two things - Can I make this transition. - Perform this transition. . Hence the reason I want to pull back the list of tokens, to determine which "actions" in my adapter can be performed given the currrent state of the process.
