sub-process name is not resolved upon deployment with ant-task(DeployProcessTask) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBPM-2481 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPM-2481 Project: jBPM Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Reporter: Toshiya Kobayashi Assignee: Alejandro Guizar If you omit binding attribute for <sub-process> in <process-state> and deploy the process definition with org.jbpm.ant.DeployProcessTask, resolving sub-process will fail. When you run the parent process with jbpm-console after the deployment, jbpm-console will show -- "org.jbpm.JbpmException" was thrown. The message is: can't create a process instance when processDefinition is null -- DeployProcessTask calls jbpmConfiguration.createJbpmContext() after parsing and before deploying. If jbpmContext is not created before parsing, sub-process won't be resoleved(the call to DbSubProcessResolver.findSubProcess returns null.). So the default behaviour of binding attribute(parse time resolving) will fail.
