[jboss-user] [jBPM Users] - Long-running tasks and async continuation

[petitgitan]

Hello,

The documentation frames "asynchronous continuation" only within the context of automatic activities.  Async is useful when a process shouldn't block the thread and/or transaction while an activity is being carried out.

This is great, but how about long-running human tasks?  They are not automatic activities, and there surely is a benefit in handling them asynchronously.  I couldn't tell from the documentation whether tasks are considered async by default.  Are they?  If not, is there a way of making them async?

Regards,
George
