    Action for reading the task variables and the task instance

    aroeder

      I try to write a custom action class to read the variables of a task and also the task instance id. So basicly I did that:

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


      In my action class I can read the variables with:

      executionCtx.getContextInstance().getVariable("title");
      


      But I also need the task instance id, but when I call:

      TaskInstance taskInstance = executionCtx.getTaskInstance();
      


      the TaskInstance is already null.

      Is there a way to find out the task instance id?
