1. Re: ending process does not end tasks
tom.baeyens Jun 4, 2008 3:51 AM (in response to kukeltje)anyone else got an opinion on this ?
ronald, you currently have the majority: 100% in favour of ending tasks :-)
can you update http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/JbpmJpdl4 to reflect this. if this thread would switch to leaving tasks open, we can always update it again :-) -
2. Re: ending process does not end tasks
jbarrez Jun 4, 2008 4:53 AM (in response to kukeltje)I vote in favour, too.
In current implementations, I'm adding a "processInstances.end not null" when I need to retrieve a task list.
So ending the task automatically would speed up these queries a bit ;-)
But conceptually it seems only logic to me that tasks are ended when the process ends. -

I also think it doesn't make sense to have open task instances for ended processes. Only in rare cases maybe, therefor it would be better to add an attribute for don't ending tasks...
By the way, there I have some thoughts on task management too, but I open up another thread... -

i'll try to compile a list of topics that would be good to discuss in dublin. -

6. Re: ending process does not end tasks
kukeltje Jun 4, 2008 7:01 AM (in response to kukeltje)Do we change this behaviour in 4.0 or in combination with the 'end-process-completely' attribute in 3.2.x as well. Not a lot of people seem to use this attribute and I already have a patch.

tom.baeyens Jun 4, 2008 7:58 AM (in response to kukeltje)i don't think it's good to change the default in 3.x.

8. Re: ending process does not end tasks
kukeltje Jun 4, 2008 11:30 AM (in response to kukeltje)no, not the default of a plain end-state, but only if one uses the end-process-completely attribute. A non-documented feature, that is not in the xsd, nor in the designer, nor in ......
Should not be a problem then... right? otoh, I have a patch that we can use locally, so it works for us now.
