Hi, I have a start state with a task and some variables (see below). However I want to set the initial values of the variables. That's what I am try to do in the action called "SetupSuspiciousTransaction" using the task-create event. i.e. I'm trying to do some initial setup in my start state when I first create this task. The problem I'm having is that the call to processInstance.getTaskMgmtInstance().createStartTaskInstance(); doesn't seem to fire off the action. I assumed that during the creation of the start task my action would be called. It is getting called but I think it's getting called on taskInstance.end(); How would I do some initialisation before starting the task on the start-state? | <start-state name="simulate suspicious transaction"> | <task name="Simulate Transaction" swimlane="Fraud Investigator"> | <controller> | <variable name="transaction value" access="read,write,required"></variable> | <variable name="account number" access="read,write,required"></variable> | <variable name="transaction status" access="read,write,required"></variable> | </controller> | <event type="task-create"> | <action class="com.nr.tms.workflow.objectservices.actionhandlers.SetupSuspiciousTransaction"/> | </event> | </task> | <transition name="submit" to="check transaction"></transition> | </start-state> | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4128417#...
