[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss jBPM] - swimlaneInstance overwritten when creating startTaskInstance

[yoyoyoyo]

confused in TaskMgmtInstance createStartTaskInstance:

  |   public TaskInstance createStartTaskInstance() {
  |     ...
  |     taskInstance.setActorId(SecurityHelper.getAuthenticatedActorId());
  |     return taskInstance;
  |   }
  | 

this will overwrite any (if there is any) initialized swimlaneInstances related to this taskInstance because:

  |  /**
  |    * (re)assign this task to the given actor.  If this task is related 
  |    * to a swimlane instance, that swimlane instance will be updated as well.
  |    */
  |   public void setActorId(String actorId) {
  |     setActorId(actorId, true);
  |   }
  | 
  |   /**
  |    * (re)assign this task to the given actor.
  |    * @param actorId is reference to the person that is assigned to this task.
  |    * @param overwriteSwimlane specifies if the related swimlane 
  |    * should be overwritten with the given swimlaneActorId.
  |    */
  |   public void setActorId(String actorId, boolean overwriteSwimlane){
  |    ...
  |   }
  | 

in our application we have to initialize all swimlaneInstances at processInstance creation time, in order to do reassignment dynamically before the start of a process. 

So would it be better if the code looks like this:

  |   public TaskInstance createStartTaskInstance() {
  |     ...
  |     taskInstance.setActorId(SecurityHelper.getAuthenticatedActorId(), false);
  |     return taskInstance;
  |   }
  |
