    taskInstances aren't persisted when persist a processinstanc

    juangiovanolli

      Hi:
      i'm having a rare problem. when i persist a jbpm processinstance, the related taskinstances aren't persisted. the code is shown below:

      ProcessInstance pi = new ProcessInstance(SOME_PROCESS_DEFINITION);
      pi.getRootToken.signal();
      jbpmContext.save(pi);
      


      viewing the taskinstances collection of the taskmgmtinstance related with the processinstance through the display console of eclipse (god bless that thing), i view the taskinstance created, but is not persisted. Why? Any ideas?

          they are saved when the context is closed or when cmt is used the transaction is committed there.

            what did you mean with "cmt" ?

                okay, now i know what's cmt, jejejeje. but i still have a problem: i don't know yet how to force the saved of the taskinstances, because i need them in the database in the next sentence. can you help me with that?

                • 6. Re: taskInstances aren't persisted when persist a processins

                  Are you closing the context???? If you don't, it won't work.
                  If you're using cmt, you still need to close the context to flush the cache, I think.

                    i'm using the sentences in the order shown below, and i get the follow exception. any ideas???

                     jbpmContext.save(pi);
                     jbpmContext.close();

                    • 8. Re: taskInstances aren't persisted when persist a processins

                      If you look at Services.save(), which is where the action happens, it reads:

                      public void save(ProcessInstance processInstance, JbpmContext jbpmContext) {
                       Iterator iter = saveOperations.iterator();
                       ...
                       while (iter.hasNext()) {
                       SaveOperation saveOperation = (SaveOperation) iter.next();
                       saveOperation.save(processInstance, jbpmContext);
                       }
                       }


                      The list of operations that it's using is set up here in the Services class:
                      defaultSaveOperations.add(new CheckUnpersistableVariablesOperation());
                       // first we save the runtime data (process instance)
                       defaultSaveOperations.add(new HibernateSaveOperation());
                       // then we insert the logs cause the logs can have references
                       // to the runtime data
                       defaultSaveOperations.add(new SaveLogsOperation());
                       defaultSaveOperations.add(new CascadeSaveOperation());


                      The nodes are saved in CheckUnpersistableVariablesOperation());

                      If you're setting the list of operations, you missed that one.
                      Otherwise, this may help you figure out where to look.
                      I'd definitely be debugging into the jBPM code if I were in your shoes.
                      It doesn't look like anyone else has seen it, although you're looking for a quick turnaround where occasional visitors to this forum may never have seen your post.
