Ok i have lookd at this for a while and maybe i am just not getting it. thought i was .... but i cant seem to get the tasks to show up.

I have this business process definition -

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<process-definition name="TicketingSystem">

 <start-state name="start">
 <transition to="waiting"/>
 </start-state>

 <task-node name="waiting" end-tasks="true">
 <task name="task-assignment" description="Tasks waiting for assignment">
 <assignment pooled-actors="ticket-user"/>
 </task>

 <transition name="cancel" to="cancelled"/>
 </task-node>

 <task-node name="working" end-tasks="true">
 <task name="task-working" description="Tasks are rassigned to be workable">
 <assignment actor-id="user"/>
 </task>

 <transition name="done" to="finished"/>
 <transition name="done" to="finished"/>
 <transition name="cancel" to="cancelled"/>
 </task-node>

 <end-state name="finished"/>
 <end-state name="cancelled"/>
</process-definition>

I have this code creating my process

 @Out(scope=ScopeType.BUSINESS_PROCESS, required=false)
 long ticketId;
 @Out(scope=ScopeType.BUSINESS_PROCESS, required=false)
 String owner;

 @CreateProcess(definition="TicketingSystem")
 public String createTicket() {
 log.info("TicketSystem - create - #{ticket}");
 log.info("Using actor - #{actor} ");

 // ticket is not complete cause we just started it.
 ticket.setTicketComplete(false);

 em.persist(ticket);

 // save the fields
 ticketId = ticket.getTicketId();
 owner = ticket.getOwner();

 return "/ticket_list.xhtml";
 }

So i login .... set an actor id to "user" ... then submit the ticket.


and i have the xhtml ...
