Hi guys,

I'm using jBPM 4.3.

I instantiate an object using a factory and then I need to set its properties and pass it as an argument to another method. The problem is that i can do this in 2 steps:

I Get the class instance with:

<java class="jbpm.demo.MyClassFactory" method="getMyClass" name="init" var="myInstance">
          <arg>
               <string value="MyClassName"/>
          </arg>
      <transition name="to execute" to="execute"/>
</java>

and then I set the properties and call the method with:

<custom class="jbpm.demo.Executor" name="execute">
          <field name ="classToExecute">
               <object expr="#{myInstance}">
                    <property name="name"><string value="John Smith"/></property>
                    <property name="City"><string value="New York"/></property>
               </object>
          </field>
          <transition name="to end" to="end"/>
</custom >

I'd like to merge <java> and <custom> task in one step, but i don't know if it's possible and how to.

<object class="..."> is not possible to use because I instantiate the class with reflection and the class name can differ from case to case.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
