Assigning a task to pooled-actors via context var

asaf sh Dec 12, 2007 4:52 PM

Hey,

In creation time of a process instance I set a variable (lets name it 'username'),

Then in the middle of the process I have a task node with a task which I want to assign to an actor based on the value of the 'username' variable which available in the context,

I tried something like:

<task name="usertask">
 <assignment actor-id="#{username}"></assignment>
</task>

But I guess this is not the way to extract context vars,

Asaf.

it is 'a' way, but not all attributes support EL, this one might not (I'm not sure). You can see in the source if it does

huh?
It's just a simple string var I outjected (via seam) into the process instance,

I can see the var within 'variableinstance' table of JBPM

(type string, simple string value... etc...)

there must be an easy way to do this,

isn't ContextInstance somehow available within the process itself?

Thanks.

Try this
<assignment expression="variable(username)" />
