event type="task-assign" doesn't fire

[aroeder]

I'm using jBPM 3.2.2 and my task node looks like that:

<task-node name="INDEX_DATA">
 <task name="enterIndexData" swimlane="INDIZIERUNG">
 <controller>
 <variable access="read,write,required" name="title"> </variable>
 <variable access="read,write" name="agentNumber"></variable>
 <variable access="read,write,required" name="type"></variable>
 </controller>
 <event type="task-assign">
 <action name="de.firstdata.jbpm.action.LogTimesAction"/>
 </event>
 </task>
 <transition to="process_end" name="next"></transition>
</task-node>

But the event type="task-assign" never gets fired, when I assign an actor by:

TaskInstance task = ctx.getTaskInstance(pTaskInstanceId);
task.start(actorID);

What am I doing wrong?

I rechecked it again: I'm using jBPM 3.3.1 not JBPM 3.2.2. Sorry!

what if you set the actor explicitly instead of via the start method?

[aroeder]

I found the solution, it has to be:

<event type="task-assign">
 <action class="de.firstdata.jbpm.action.LogTimesAction"/>
</event>

The jpdl designer created a name instead of a class attribute. Now it works.

[kukeltje]

hmm... I think you filled out the name attribute instead of the class attribute ;-). The GPD does not fill in anything afaik.

[aroeder]

You were right. I was mistaken. Sorry!
