[jboss-user] [JBoss jBPM] - Re: How to Generate ad-hoc Task, activities & process ??

[rogerofyan]

Sure, this is definitely ok for jBPM4.
faisalgeek, I suppose you means generating task, activities & process at run time, not only at the process definition(jpdl), don't u?

I use to have similar requirement, and I found few documents about the internal jBPM api. So I had to read the source code of jBPM4. 

I can share my code of generating task & activity at runtime.

  | 				.getDestination();
  | 
  | 		// 1. creating an activity
  | 		ActivityImpl newActivity = fork.getProcessDefinition().createActivity("提交副导师信息1");
  | 		TaskActivity ta = new TaskActivity();
  | 		newActivity.setBehaviour(ta);
  | 
  | 		// 2.creating an outgoing transition
  | 		TransitionImpl outgoing = newActivity.createOutgoingTransition();
  | 		// outgoing.setDestination((ActivityImpl) join);
  | 		outgoing.setName("至教学服务中心审核");
  | 		join.addIncomingTransition(outgoing);
  | 
  | 		// 3.creating an execution
  | 		ExecutionImpl newExec = execution.createExecution();
  | 		newExec.setActivity(newActivity);
  | 		newExec.setState(Execution.STATE_ACTIVE_CONCURRENT);
  | 		newExec.setName("viceMentorExecution");
  | 		newExec.setTransition(outgoing);
  | 		newExec.setPropagation(Propagation.UNSPECIFIED);
  | 		newExec.setHistoryActivityStart(Clock.getCurrentTime());
  | 		dbSession.save(newExec);
  | 
  | 		TaskImpl task = (TaskImpl) taskService.newTask();
  | 		task.setAssignee(assignee);
  | 		task.setName("提交副导师资料1");
  | 		task.setExecution(newExec);
  | 		task.setSignalling(true);
  | 		taskService.saveTask(task);
  | 
  | 		HistoryEvent.fire(new TaskActivityStart(task), newExec);
  | 		newExec.waitForSignal();
  | 	}
  | }
  | 

The code looks ugly, but it just works for me.
Take it as a reference.
