SubProcess not ended when signaling its state node from main process instance ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBPM-2874 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBPM-2874 Project: jBPM Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Affects Versions: jBPM 4.3 Reporter: Maciej Swiderski Assignee: Maciej Swiderski Fix For: jBPM 4.4 There is a potential risk of wrong usage of sub process execution that seems like it was not tested. Please consider following scenario: - there are two processes (main and sub) - both of them have states somewhere in the execution - subprocess goes into wait state - user wants to signal it but there is no reference to it available via public API - user tries to signal using main process instance - no exception is thrown Potential misuse would be to call signal method using main process instance which will in fact move on with execution leaving unfinished sub process instance. Solution to this issue could be as follows: - expose method getSubProcessInstance on Execution (public API) - disable direct signal on sub process activity from the API when it is in active state - create an example and document it in user guide I have already tested that and it seems to work properly. If no objections, will finish with docs and examples and put it to repository. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
