I am working on jBPM 4.3.
I wrote a converter to convert one of my classes into a Long (it's coming from JPA with the Long being its key).
I added it to jbpm.variables.types.xml and using the following code I add the variable to my instance.
 
Map<String, Object> variables = new HashMap<String, Object>();
 
          variables.put("dataEntity", dataEntity);
 
          ProcessInstance instance = processEngine.getExecutionService()
 
                    .startProcessInstanceByKey("dataEntityProcess", variables);

 
The converter gets triggered and the variable is converted to a Long.
In my process I have a java task:
<java name="activateAccount" expr="#{dataEntityProcessDAO}" method="activate">

          <arg>

               <object expr="#{dataEntity}" />

          </arg>

          <transition to="end" />

     </java>

As soon as my process reaches the task I get 
org.jbpm.pvm.internal.wire.WireException: method activate(java.lang.Long) is not available on object com.hre.portaldb.crosscommon.base.processes.DataEntityProcessDAOImpl at 40b11a9f (com.hre.portaldb.crosscommon.base.processes.DataEntityProcessDAOImpl)
     at org.jbpm.pvm.internal.wire.descriptor.ObjectDescriptor.invokeMethod(ObjectDescriptor.java:206)
     at org.jbpm.jpdl.internal.activity.JavaActivity.perform(JavaActivity.java:76)

 
The revert method of my converter is never called and it tries to use the Long on the method that takes DataEntity as input.
What am I doing wrong?
 
Thx
Jochen
