Since this is a recurring question. I checked the docs and indeed the text for this part is really confusing. sorry :-)
So here's the meat of that crappy explanation: * The actorId denotes the person to which this task is assigned. If a task instance has an actorId, that task will appear in the user's personal task list. * The pooled actors denote the candidates for the task instance. This means that the task is offered to many users and one has to take it into his/her personal task list in order to start working on it. Taking a task means that the given actor will put his id in the task instance's actorId. * Now here it comes: a pooled actorId, can be a reference to a user OR a group OR a system. * So to fetch all the task instances for which a given actor is a candidate (= the user's grouptasklist) you need to do the following: Make a collection that includes the user's actorId and all the ids of groups that the user belongs to. Then search for task instances that are not in a personal task list (actorId==null) and for which there is a match in the pooled actorIds. The motivation behind this is that we want to separate the identity component from jBPM task assignment. jBPM only stores Strings as actorIds and doesn't know the relation between the users, groups and other identity information. is this better ? then i'll replace the original with this in the userguide :-) regards, tom.
