I want to create jbpmn as an standalone service.

[ankitgr8]

I wrote a main method and try to run simple bpmn process with out any presistence and transaction and any jboss. Below are the sample code I have written

KieHelper kie =  new KieHelper();

        setupWorkFlows(kie);

        ksession = kie.build().newKieSession();

        setUpWorkItemHandler();

        ksession.startProcess("Customer.bpmn");

setupWorkFlow = this method add the resources in the knowledge base

setUpWorkItemHandler - set the handler to the associated task.

This always give me following error

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown process I

D: Customer.bpmn

That's because you need to add the bpmn2 file to the kie container. And then you should start it with the process id no the file name.

I am doing the same when I Said setupWorkFlow = this method add the resources in the knowledge base..below is the code ---let me know if i am missing out something

private void setupWorkFlows(KieHelper kie){

        List<String> bpmnfiles = findBPMNFiles();

        Map<String,ResourceType> resourceList = new HashMap<String,ResourceType>(bpmnfiles.size());

        for(String bpmnfile :bpmnfiles){

            System.out.println("file name " + bpmnfile);

             kie = kie.addResource(ResourceFactory.newFileResource(bpmnfile));

        }

    }
