Re: [rules-users] Question about signalEvent method
Daniel,
Yes, the event parameter is the data associated with the event. If you
want to access this data in the process instance, you should set the
"VariableName" property of the event node that is responsible for
catching the event, that will then make sure that the data is copied to
that process instance variable when the event occurs.

Quoting Daniel Miller <dmiller(a)versatile.com>:
Alright, I feel dumb posting this question, but I can't seem to
find
an answer anywhere.
When I use signalEvent, I know I'm passing it the event I want to
fire, but then there is the "Object event" parameter. What exactly
happens if I fill this parameter? What I'd like to do is the
following:
Get a running process id, and signal an event on the process -- in my
case "AttachAudio". However, the AttachAudio is going to be
proceeded
by an action, which will be responsible for actually attaching my
audio object to a running Alert in my system.
So, obviously I need to inject the audio object into my process
instance. Is that what the "event" parameter does on signalEvent?
And if so, how does it know what variable to inject the object into?
If not, how can I do something like processInstance.setVariable
("audio",audioObject); processInstance.signalEvent
("AttachAudio",null); ?
Thanks for your help in advance.
