Can intermediate catch signal event's name be dynamically changed by the local variable of process?

[c00823ue]

I'm now using bpmn2 file. I use

ksession.signalEvent("signal_name", "111");

to signal an intermediate catch signal event. Is it possible to set signal_name by local variable of process? Can intermediate catch signal event's name be dynamically changed by the local variable of process? Moreover, Can intermediate catch timer event's time duration be set by local variable of process? THX!

Hi,

For Human task we can assign USER and GROUP dynamically using "#{ActorID}" but this approach is not working for Signal node. I dont think we can  change signal name dynamically. Feel free to open feature request for this.

this is not defined as part of  BPMN2 spec which defines signals in the process definition. So you cannot change the signal dynamically. For that sort of work you could leverage send and receive tasks that are backed by work item handlers which can be implemented according to your needs and take into account dynamic nature of signals it will send or wait for.
