[jbpm-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBPM-2828) ContextInstance.deleteVariable() does not delete the variable from the database

ContextInstance.deleteVariable() does not delete the variable from the database ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBPM-2828 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPM-2828 Project: jBPM Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Affects Versions: jBPM 3.2.8 Reporter: Martin Putz Assignee: Martin Putz A call to ContextInstance.deleteVariable(name) does not actually delete the variable from the database. Instead, in the VariableContainer.deleteVariable() method, only the references to the process execution are removed, and a new log entry is added. This can lead to orphaned records in the database. The applied fix removes the variable instances from the database *if the logging service is disabled*. With the logging service enabled, the variable cannot be deleted right away, as the new VariableDeleteLog instance holds a reference to the variable. These records will eventually be deleted upon process instance deletion. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
