Hi all,
I have an application - Spring+Hibernate.
All transactions management described in spring config:
<bean id="transactionManager"
class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.HibernateTransactionManager">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource"/>
<property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory"/>
</bean>
<!-- enables the configuration of transactional behavior based on annotations -->
<tx:annotation-driven transaction-manager="transactionManager"/>
So in code we just use:
@Transactional(propagation = Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW)
public void handleEvent(Event event) {
List<EventAction> eventActions = event.getEventactions();
for(EventAction action : eventActions) {
actions.run();
}
}
So all actions runs in one transaction. Now we want to use JBPM process to run such actions.
We create some jbpm process com.example.process and rewrite our code to :
@Transactional(propagation = Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW)
public void handleEvent(Event event) {
List<EventAction> eventActions = event.getEventactions();
Map<String, EventAction> actions = new HashMap<String, EventAction>();
for(EventAction action : eventActions) {
actions.put(action.getDisplayName(), action);
}
Map<String, Object> params = new HashMap<String, Object>();
params.put("event", event);
params.put("actions", actions);
ksession.startProcess("com.example.process", params);
}
The main Idea to run each actions in order depending on some specisic order (by DisplayName). So my diagram of the process consist of sequential Service task which hadler looks like:
public class EventActionHandler implements WorkItemHandler {
@Override
public void executeWorkItem(WorkItem workItem, WorkItemManager workItemManager) {
String displayName= (String) workItem.getParameter("DisplayName");
Map<String, EventAction> actions = ( Map<String, EventAction>) workItem.getParameter("actions");
try {
(actions.get(displayName)).run();
System.out.println("run "+displayName+" done");
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception "+displayName+" : " + e);
}
workItemManager.completeWorkItem(workItem.getId(),null);
}
...
}
So each Service Task has it display name and this display name defines order . All works fine. I even can debug it. But now I want to see current status of the process -which one Service Task is executing now.
I what to use for it JBPM console. I have configured all war-s from jbpm-installer_5.3.0 to use my Oracle schema. And I can see my process in JBPM Console -> process-> Process Overview .
But I whant to see current instances of such processes. As I understand (to store in DB nessesary data for process instancess) I should do steps described in :
jbpm-5.3.0.Final-docs/jbpm-docs/html_single/index.html
h2. 19.3. Spring
After words :
The following example shows a slightly more complex example, where the session is configured to use persistence (JPA using an in-memory database) and transaction (using the Spring transaction manager).
I've done it and my configuration is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:jbpm="http://drools.org/schema/drools-spring"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.0.xsd
http://drools.org/schema/drools-spring http://drools.org/schema/drools-spring.xsd ">
<bean id="entityManagerFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource"/>
<property name="persistenceUnitName" value="org.jbpm.persistence.jpa"/>
</bean>
<bean id="JPAtxManager" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager">
<property name="entityManagerFactory" ref="entityManagerFactory"/>
</bean>
<jbpm:kbase id="kbase">
<jbpm:resources>
<jbpm:resource type="BPMN2" source="classpath:Events.bpmn"/>
</jbpm:resources>
</jbpm:kbase>
<jbpm:ksession id="ksession" type="stateful" kbase="kbase">
<jbpm:configuration>
<jbpm:work-item-handlers>
<jbpm:work-item-handler name="Event Action" ref="eventActionHandler"/>
</jbpm:work-item-handlers>
<jbpm:jpa-persistence>
<jbpm:transaction-manager ref="JPAtxManager"/>
<jbpm:entity-manager-factory ref="entityManagerFactory"/>
</jbpm:jpa-persistence>
</jbpm:configuration>
</jbpm:ksession>
<bean id="eventActionHandler" class="com.example.events.EventActionHandler">
</bean>
</beans>
As you can see I use the same datasource as used in my application .
My persistance file is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<persistence version="1.0"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_1_0.xsd

http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/orm_1_0.xsd"

</properties>
</persistence-unit>
</persistence>
When I launch JBOSS I can see:

So what should I do with it? Looks like problems is in two dirfferent transaction managers. How can I configure in spring to use one TM for both application and JBPM stuff?
Looks like <jbpm:configuration> has only <jbpm:jpa-persistence> tag inside ? How can I configure my application in right way?
