Option to Not Signal a Sub-Process in the Process-State Node
------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBPM-770
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPM-770
             Project: JBoss jBPM
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Core Engine
    Affects Versions:  jBPM 3.1.2
         Environment: Feature request.
            Reporter: Jed Danner
         Assigned To: Tom Baeyens
            Priority: Minor


I've found a case where I'd like to start a sub-process from a process but I don't want to signal it immediately. There is an external source which will handle that signalling. I've made some modifications to the ProcessState.java file, as such:

Added a new class member:

protected boolean signalProcess = true;


Added a check in the read method:

    String signalText = subProcessElement.attributeValue("signal");
    if (signalText!=null) {
      if (("no".equalsIgnoreCase(signalText))
           || ("false".equalsIgnoreCase(signalText)) ) {
        signalProcess = false;
      }
    }


Added a check in the execute method (right before the signal):

	if (!signalProcess)
	    return;


Added a new method:

  public boolean getSignalProcess() {
    return signalProcess;
  }


And updated the jpdl-3.1.xsd and jpdl-3.0.xsd files (wasn't sure if I needed to do both).


What I see is when the process is deployed, the read method see my new attribute and sets it to 'false' as I want. But when the process comes along and I get into the execute method the value of signalProcess is 'true'. 

I'm thinking there is another step I need to take but don't know what it is. If someone can take a look or provide a pointer (And finds this feature request useful) - it'd be great to have it integrated.

Thanks!
