[Ronald van Kuijk (JIRA)]

    [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPM-613?page=comments#action_12367822 ] 
            
Ronald van Kuijk commented on JBPM-613:
---------------------------------------

This should either also include a type like 

<variable name="documentType" access="read" value="RTF" type="String"/>

OR a different format like

<variable name="documentType" access="read">
new String("RTF");
</variable>

in bsh format or something like that.

> Hi,
> The JPDL variable element can be used to share info with a new process instance created in a process-state. Sometimes, it is interesting to set the value of a variable in the JPDL, for example:
> <process-state name="cms">
> ...
> <variable name="documentType" access="read" value="RTF" />
> ...
> </process-state>
> Currently, we have a ActionHandler that has been defined in the node-enter event. This ActionHandler puts the values in the variable map of the parent process instance, but the new feature can simplify it.
> Best regards.
