Save not required on jbpmContext operations ------------------------------------------- Key: JBPM-961 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPM-961 Project: JBoss jBPM Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Engine Affects Versions: jBPM jPDL 3.2 Reporter: Jeff DeLong Assigned To: Tom Baeyens Priority: Minor Save (or ForUpdate methods) do not appear to be required on jbpmContext operations. In the javadocs for JbpmContext it says ...do your process operations... // in case you update a process object that was not fetched // with a .. ForUpdate method, you have to save it jbpmContext.save(processInstance); ... "All of the ...ForUpdate(...) methods will automatically save the loaded object at jbpmContext.close(); I have verified through JUnit tests that indeed saving of ProcessInstance and TaskInstance is not required, the state will still be persisted.
