[esb-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBESB-2239) StartProcessInstanceCommand: Return token id/process instance id

[Kevin Conner (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBESB-2239?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12443504#action_12443504 ] 

Kevin Conner commented on JBESB-2239:
-------------------------------------

Unfortunately, just because something exists doesn't mean that they should exist.

The reworked integration was intended to remove many of those including the, extremely broken, signal command.  Unfortunately this did not happen.

If someone creates a jBPM process then it is the jBPM process that assumes responsibility for control, that is the whole point of the orchestration.

As I said earlier, this is not a discussion forum.  Take this to the forums and we can discuss the requirements and *then* decide to create JIRAs.
