[jbpm-dev] [jBPM Development] - is async execution considered inactive?

Hi guys, I have a (pretty hackish) process definition with custom task activities implemented as java classes, these activities basically just create a default task, the relevant part of the process definition looks like this: | <custom class="net.package.CustomTaskActivity" name="custom01"> | <on continue="async" event="forward"> | <mail class="net.package.CustomMailProducer" > | <field name="tmplName"><string value="templatename"/></field> | </mail> | </on> | | <transition name="forward" to="custom01"/> | <transition name="toCreateBusinessKey" to="custom02"/> | </custom> | the forward transition is supposed to be a loop just creating the same task activity for a different user, this is handled in a custom task implementation. The Problem is when i take the "forward" transition I get an exception telling me the Execution is not active: | org.jbpm.api.JbpmException: execution[ChangeRequest.15] is not active: async | at org.jbpm.pvm.internal.model.ExecutionImpl.checkActive(ExecutionImpl.java:999) | at org.jbpm.pvm.internal.model.ExecutionImpl.take(ExecutionImpl.java:447) | at org.jbpm.jpdl.internal.activity.TaskActivity.signal(TaskActivity.java:140) I checked the code and according to my understanding it all boils down to the implementation of the ScopedInstanceImpl.isActive() method: public boolean isActive() { | return Execution.STATE_ACTIVE_ROOT.equals(state) | || Execution.STATE_ACTIVE_CONCURRENT.equals(state); | } | My question is: Why isn't there a check for Execution.STATE_ASYNC? Is an async continuation considered to be not active? View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4259092#...
