Java Activities cannot be be async when the method takes an argument (at least on the spring context). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBPM-2394 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPM-2394 Project: JBoss jBPM Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Affects Versions: jBPM 4.0.CR1 Environment: java-6-sun-1.6.013. The app is a unit test set up after Andres Inze's examples here http://www.inze.be/andries/2009/05/24/spring-integration-part-of-jbpm4-tr... Reporter: Robert Moskal I have been testing the spring integration code in the trunk, though I think this has nothing to do with Spring. If I run a test that simply starts a process that has an async node with a bean with a method that takes no argument it runs to the end just as yuo would expect. <process name="TopTake2" xmlns="http://jbpm.org/4.0/jpdl"> <start g="69,143,48,48" name="TopSubFlow"> <transition to="entryNotifications"/> </start> <java expr="#{notificationService}" g="169,146,80,40" method="notify1" name="entryNotifications" async="true"> <transition to="end1" g="-49,-22"/> </java> <end name="end1" g="296,144,48,48"/> </process> However, if I change the description a little to call a method that takes an argument, like so I get an xml validation error saying that async is not allowed to appear in element java (the trace is below): <process name="TopTake2" xmlns="http://jbpm.org/4.0/jpdl"> <start g="69,143,48,48" name="TopSubFlow"> <transition to="entryNotifications"/> </start> <java expr="#{notificationService}" g="169,146,80,40" method="notify1" name="entryNotifications" async="true"> <arg value="hi"/> <transition to="end1" g="-49,-22"/> </java> <end name="end1" g="296,144,48,48"/> </process> org.jbpm.api.JbpmException: xml validation error: cvc-complex-type.3.2.2: Attribute 'async' is not allowed to appear in element 'java'.
