--------------------------------------------------------------
The results of a WorkItem Handler are usually used INSIDE the process. If you need them outside of the process you can basically follow 2 mechanisms:
1. Create your external mechanism that the WorkItem Handler will use: i.e. pass a List to the constructor of the WorkItem Handler, the handler then will populate the list (no need to put the results in the resulting map since you are not going to use the value in the process) and then retrieve the value from your app.
2. Put the result in the map and pass it to the process (this is automatically done when you complete the WI), in the process definition you have to map the result to a process' variable. Then, when the process is completed, you can get the value of that variable using something like:
((WorkFlowProcessInstance) process).getVariable("nameOfTheProcessVariable")
