timers: JBPM_TIMER or TIMERS ?

[mennen]

Can anyone tell me the difference between the tables JBPM_TIMER and TIMERS in the database?

Which one should contain the timer that I declare in the processdefinition.xml ?

And can anyone tell me how I can create a timer so that it appears in the database? I read in the forum something about saving the process instance before being able to find the timers in the database.
I found this on the forum:

GraphSession.SaveProcessInstance()

and i also found this on the forum:

session.getGraphSession().saveProcessInstance(pi)

But where exactly do I do this? Do i have to create an action that i call from within a task?

Any examples would be welcome and very very appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Mennen

Mennen,

TIMERS is not a jBPM table (all jBPM tables are prefixed with JBPM_).
