FYI, I've poked around for about 6 hours looking for an answer before posting. ---- I'm evaluating 4.0 for a handheld project where a user's current task list is downloaded for the day (ie. all their tasks are viewable). I've modified Jeff Yu's jpbm-helloworld process to include 5 tasks. It deploys and functions correctly, ie I can step through the tasks in the jbpm-console. The task tab only shows a single current task not the 5 from my process. I further investigated the API and found these TaskQuery methods. TaskQuery processDefinitionId(java.lang.String processDefinitionId) - only select tasks that are associated to the given process definition TaskQuery processInstanceId(java.lang.String processInstanceId) - only select tasks that are associated to the given process instance TaskService TaskQuery.list() execution returns a single task (the current task) for both TaskQuery configurations. So I opened the jbpm database and saw that a single row exists in JBPM_TASK table (the current task). So it appears that startProcessInstance doesn't create all process tasks, the engine only creates one at a time. So my question is, can I start process instances where all tasks are created (ie inserted into JBPM_TASK table)? If not, can this be done in jBPM 3.x?
