Update hibernate-type process variables via form template --------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBPM-2615 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPM-2615 Project: jBPM Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Affects Versions: jBPM 4.1 Environment: JBoss 5.0GA on Windows Reporter: Mark Roy In the Freemarker template attached to my task node, if I have a form field that references a process variable of a simple type, String e.g., [input type="text" name="stringProcVar" value="${stringProcVar}"] the process variable stringProcVar is updated on form submit. However, if I have a form field that references 'objvar', a process variable that is of type 'hibernate entity with a string id': [input type="text" name="objvar.property" value="${objvar.property}"] the properties of 'objvar' are displayed correctly in the form. However, updates to the value (input field on form post) do not update objvar's properties. Instead, a new process variable is created: (server.log) DEBUG [org.jbpm.pvm.internal.model.ScopeInstanceImpl] (http-127.0.0.1-8080-5) create variable 'objvar.property' in 'execution[ESP-9]' with value 'abc123' It would be *nice* if the form processor would update the 'property' on the existing variable 'objvar' and then update (persist) objvar. -- 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
