[jbpm-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBPM-2712) Ability to add timer to transitions in <custom> activity in the same way that they can be added to the <state> task.

Ability to add timer to transitions in <custom> activity in the same way that they can be added to the <state> task. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBPM-2712 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPM-2712 Project: jBPM Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: Runtime Engine Affects Versions: jBPM 4.3 Reporter: Martin Porter It should be possible to add a <timer> as the child of the <transition> element contained within a <custom> activity in the same manner that it is for <state> activities. If a custom activity executes a waitForSignal() inside the execute() element (as is the case in our use case) then we need to be able to put a timeout on this activity such that if no signal is recieved within a specified period the timeout will fire and action can be taken. This is possible in a <state> activity but currently not in the custom activity. We tried to do this by changing our <custom> with a <state> and this worked for the timeout but the signalling then failed (see JIRA JBPM-2711) so currenty we can find no solution to this issue. -- 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
