some generic comments: - just post normal code with normal java comment and use [ c o d e ] tags (without spaces) for this - how can we know WHEN the 1,2 and 3 variable instances are created? You could have a process with an actionhandler that just creates independent variableinstances? I'm not saying you do but it could be and we cannot determine that. - post your processdefinition and use code tags for that as well I bet you can determin when they are created. Process instantiation time, task creation time? so please be a little more specific. Also use debug to find info. anonymous wrote : who later the o to follow ahead with the process remain thus? What do you mean by this? View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3965603#...
