I am studying jbpm(v3.2.2). I made a simple process as following.To capture who kick start a instance of it ,I set a swimlane in the start-task. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | <process-definition xmlns="urn:jbpm.org:jpdl-3.2" name="webflow"> | <swimlane name="initiator" /> | <start-state name="start-state1"> | <task swimlane="initiator" /> | <transition to="waitDecision"> | </start-state> | ... ... The following is the test code to create an instance of it ... ... | context.setActorId("john"); | GraphSession gs = context.getGraphSession(); | ProcessDefinition pdf = gs.findLatestProcessDefinition("webflow"); | ProcessInstance pi = pdf.createProcessInstance(); | pi.signal(); | ... ... As the code above shows,I set the actor to "john". After run it,I find jbpm do create a process instance in database.but another test code of // pi is an instance loaded from db. | pi.getTaskMgmtInstance().getSwimlaneInstance("initiator"); get null ! The expected result should not be null,and the pi.getTaskMgmtInstance().getSwimlaneInstance("initiator").getActorId() should be john. Why ?
