Hi All,
In my JBPM approval process, I have a requirement that, if at any point of time
JBPM exception happens during the process work flow., the control should
delegate to a separate TaskNode called Admin node, and the normal process flow
should stop. Inside Admin node the admin user decides , from which task node
now the process should continue, and accordingly the flow continues
Taking into consideration this requirement I designed a admin node and a
exception handler as follows..
| <task-node name="Moduladministrator">
| <task name="AdministratorInteraction"
description="Moduladministrator-Interaction">
| <assignment
class="com.sample.action.AssignAdminAction"></assignment>
| </task>
| </task-node>
| <exception-handler>
| <action name="TravelExceptionHandler"
class="com.sample.action.TravelExecptionHandler" ></action>
| </exception-handler>
|
|
The Exception action handler is ass follows , which transfer the flow to Admin
node and creates the Taskinstance at Admin node
| public class TravelExecptionHandler implements ActionHandler {
|
| private static Log log =
LogFactory.getLog(TravelExecptionHandler.class);
| private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
|
| public void execute(ExecutionContext executionContext) throws Exception
{
|
| log.debug("#################### ERROR HANDELING
##################");
|
log.debug("========================================================");
| log.debug("#################### ERROR HANDELING
##################");
| try {
|
|
| log.debug("Error comes from --" +
executionContext.getNode().getName());
| log.debug("Error is -- -- --" +
executionContext.getException().getMessage());
|
| Node targetNode =
executionContext.getProcessDefinition().findNode("Moduladministrator");
| log.debug("Admin node is--" + targetNode.getName());
|
| TaskInstance faultyTaskInstance =
executionContext.getTaskInstance();
|
| if (faultyTaskInstance != null) {
| faultyTaskInstance.setEnd(new Date());
| }
| TaskNode targetTaskNode = (TaskNode) targetNode;
| targetTaskNode.enter(executionContext);
| TaskMgmtInstance taskManagementInstance =
executionContext.getTaskMgmtInstance();
|
|
taskManagementInstance.getTaskMgmtDefinition().setStartTask((Task)
targetTaskNode.getTasks().iterator().next());
|
| log.info("Now Controll is with " + targetTaskNode.getName() + "
node");
|
|
| } catch (Exception e) {
| log.debug("Error---" + e.getCause());
| e.printStackTrace();
| }
|
| }
| }
|
This above code part is working find with creating the taskinstance at admin
task node.
Now after the task is assigned to a admin user, the admin take decision from
which task node the process should start, again.
The code i am using to delegate the flow from admin node to any desired task
node is--
| String faultNode = (String)
contextInstance.getVariable("ErrorOriginatingNode");
| Node faultyNode =
processInstance.getProcessDefinition().findNode(faultNode);
| Collection col =
processInstance.getTaskMgmtInstance().getTaskInstances();
| int cnt = 0;
| ArrayList arrayLst = new ArrayList(col);
| log.debug("Total task is- " + arrayLst.size());
|
| for (int i = 0; i < arrayLst.size(); i++) {
| TaskInstance taskInstance = (TaskInstance)
arrayLst.get(i);
| log.debug("-----TaskName = " + taskInstance.getName() +
"----TaskId = " + taskInstance.getId()
| + "----Is task active-- " +
!taskInstance.hasEnded());
| if
(!taskInstance.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("AdministratorInteraction") &&
!taskInstance.hasEnded()) {
|
| log.debug("-----Task = " + taskInstance.getName() +
" is ending ");
| taskInstance.setEnd(new Date());
| cnt++;
| }
| }
| log.debug("Total "+cnt+"tasks got ended");
| List nodes =
processInstance.getProcessDefinition().getNodes();
| for (int i = 0; i < nodes.size(); i++) {
| Node tempNode = (Node) nodes.get(i);
| if(tempNode instanceof TaskNode)
| log.debug("TaskNode " + i + "---" +
tempNode.getName());
| }
| log.info("Error Occurred in work flow.Entering Admin Node
-- -- --");
| log.info("*********Please provide any of the above Node you
want to proceed with**************");
|
| String node = conInput.getConsoleInput();
| log.debug("Selected for TaskNode--" + node);
| TaskNode targetNode =
(TaskNode)processInstance.getProcessDefinition().findNode(node);
| Transition errorTransition = new Transition("to" +
targetNode.getName());
|
| targetNode.addArrivingTransition(errorTransition);
| faultyNode.addLeavingTransition(errorTransition);
|
| errorTransition.setTo(targetNode);
| TaskMgmtInstance taskManagementInstance =
processInstance.getTaskMgmtInstance();
|
taskManagementInstance.getTaskMgmtDefinition().setStartTask((Task)
targetNode.getTasks().iterator().next());
|
| adminTaskInstance.end(errorTransition);
|

Unfortunately, I am not able to achieve my requirement. The problem I am facing
is even the control is delegating to admin node, still the process continues to
move forward with the selected transition from the node where exception occurs..
So basically , I am not able to stop and resume the work flow from a desired
Tasknode, as a admin.
Please suggest how to achieve this ..
As per the JBPM document 10.7. Exception handling
anonymous wrote :
| Note that the exception handling mechanism of jBPM is not completely
similar to the java exception handling. In
| java, a caught exception can have an influence on the control flow. In the
case of jBPM, control flow cannot be
| changed by the jBPM exception handling mechanism.
So then , how to achieve my requirement ..Any work around is there?
Please suggest..
Thanks in advance for your valuable reply..
