Implementing Ad-Hoc workflow with JBPM

[hashir]

Hi,

We are evaluating JBPM. It looks nice but can we also implement Ad-Hoc work flows with JBPM? Have any body tried that before? or have any idea regarding that?

thanks,

Hashir.

The things that imo constitute an ad-hoc workflow can be done with jBPM. But to prevent disappointment please describe in more detail the features you are looking for

I'd define an ad-hoc workflow as the one that would allow me to undertake many changes in the processes (even in their definition itself) without having to restart them.

This feature'd allow me to dynamically solve any problems found (or enhancements) without having to restart every process.

Is jBPM capable in such a way ?

Thanks in advance,
Jorju

you can 'change' running instances this way, e.g. adding an additional task. But you have to do this for each running instance. Besides, new instances to not use this. For that you need to change the processdefinition and that is not what I call ad-hoc workflow.
