creating new process instance from console fails to set process variables properly

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      When creating a new ProcessInstance from the jbpm-console, the integration code fails to set process variables (eg. from form template for start activity) properly.

      The offending code is:

      ,-- ProcessManagementImpl.java, 265, 266 –

      Execution exec = execService.startProcessInstanceById (definitionId);
      execService.setVariables(exec.getId(), processVars);

      `--------------------

      Setting the variables after startProcessInstanceById() is pointless, as this starts and runs the instance.
      Easily fixed by supplying the variables to startProcessInstanceById():

      ,-- fix –

      Execution exec = execService.startProcessInstanceById (definitionId, processVars);

      `-------------

      regards,
      Marko

          Bug - A problem that impairs or prevents the functions of the product. JBPM-2471 Params submitted via a taskform tied to the start activity cant be referenced in expressions till a task halt has been added to the workflow

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
