How do I get a pointer to the root token in jBPM4 ?

[francis1972]

Hi all,

as I stated in the subject, I'd need to get a reference to the root token. In jBPM3 that was quite easy but in jBPM4 the only useful

method I've found is:

Execution executionInA = processInstance.findActiveExecutionIn("NodeName");

What if I don't know the NodeName.......is there a safe way to get a pointer to the root token ?

thanks a lot

Francis

In v4 the process instance is coterminous with the root token. Tokens are called executions in v4. Therefore to get the root execution you simply call execution.getProcessInstance()

Hi Alejandro,

thanks for your reply. So, as far as I understand,  there is no equivalent in JBPM4 as processInstance.getRootToken() but you have to either specify a node name or retrieve all the executions :

processInstance.getExecution("node")

processInstance.getExecutions();

thanks
