[Design of JBoss jBPM] - Re: jBPM Classloading
by camunda
Hi Bjoern,
did you use the proposed solution in your project?
I wanted to use it for an own problem with classloading (and I can also commit it back to jbpm after it works correctly) but have the problem, that this is leading to and endless loop, since the classloader is already needed to load the jbpm.cfg.xml in the JbpmConfiguration (InputStream jbpmCfgXmlStream = ClassLoaderUtil.getStream(resource);).
Exception StackTrace:
| at org.jbpm.util.ClassLoaderUtil.getClassLoader(ClassLoaderUtil.java:50)
| at org.jbpm.util.ClassLoaderUtil.getStream(ClassLoaderUtil.java:83)
| at org.jbpm.JbpmConfiguration.getInstance(JbpmConfiguration.java:279)
| at org.jbpm.JbpmConfiguration.getInstance(JbpmConfiguration.java:257)
| at org.jbpm.JbpmConfiguration$Configs.getObjectFactory(JbpmConfiguration.java:418)
| at org.jbpm.JbpmConfiguration$Configs.hasObject(JbpmConfiguration.java:426)
| at org.jbpm.util.ClassLoaderUtil.getClassLoader(ClassLoaderUtil.java:50)
|
How did you solve this?
Thanks
Bernd

[Design of JBoss jBPM] - Re: Expression Evaluation in ActionHandler Properties
by brittm
(I've posted this against the JIRA issue, but I'm also posting it here for any who might be searching/following the thread.)
I have a fear that automatic expression evaluation for ActionHandler configuration could interfere with the ability to solve some interesting problems. I'll provide an example below.
A recommendation:
Rather than hard coding the expression handling logic, provide an example of a base class that users can extend if they want to take advantage of expression handling/syntax in any of their Handlers. With a base class, users can take advantage of expression handling when they want to, customize it if they need to, or intentionally ignore it. Below is a class that I use consistently--if you like it, just re-brand it, re-write it or whatever you like.
As an example of customizing the handling of expressions, this particular class provides a specialized 'concatenateEL' method--for instance, if you want to assign swimlanes to a particular Sales queue based on Market, in your AssignmentHandler configuration you could write <group>Sales-#{market}</group> which would evaluate to something like "Sales-London". The stock JbpmExpressionEvaluator doesn't provide for this type of evaluation (and I really don't know if it should.)
No, this is not completely automatic for the user, they have to call one of the methods from their Handler, but it does allow them much more flexibility.
