Programmatically add an execution listener

jorell — Tue, 22 Oct 2013 22:49:53 GMT

I need to send out a generic notification every time a process ends. I dont want to require all my users to add an execution listener to the end event and call my java code. Seems very redundant. I would much rather do that on my side. Ideally if I can have a generic listener for the engine to call

Hi Jorell
have a look on org.activiti.engine.impl.bpmn.parser.factory.DefaultActivityBehaviorFactory#createNoneEndEventActivityBehavior
you can register your own factory.

Hi,

I'm facing the same problem. I'd like to get notified whenever a process is finished, but I don't like to add ExecutionListener to the bpmn model. I already had a look at DefaultActivityBehaviorFactory, but didn't figure out how to use it, since there is no documentation available. Furthermore the posting is 2 years old, so there might be a different solution now. Any suggestions?

Using an execution/event listener is indeed the way to go there.

DefaultActivityBehaviorFactory plugs into the ProcessEngineCOnfiguration. You can inject your own subclass of it.
