Re: [rules-dev] Drools Flow in EJBs

However, I am in a EJB where I obtain entity managers with a @PersistenceContext annotation, and the transactions are managed by the container, whereas in the example an EntityManagerFactory and a TransactionManager are used. Could I configure Flow in a direct way to be used by my EJB? Thanks very much, tizo Ok, looking at the code, I guess that Drools flow is not ready to work with standards EJBs. The reasons are the following: * The JPA annotations are not standard JPA annotations, but hibernate ones. For example "CollectionOfElements" in ProcessInstanceInfo class.

* Transactions are managed by Drools, as opposed to some EJBs where transactions are managed by the container.

As for that, I will probably modify the codes, so Flow could be used in our EJBs. I would like to know if someone could guide me on what should I modify. I will post the modifications in case they are of interest to someone.
