So the current implementation of jBPM 4 based on the single-thread scenario could simplify many problem and easy to achieve.  if you really want to achieve a Multi-Thread solution,  please consider about these. Good Luck. :) -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/550901#550901] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
