topic Manning Book Ch5 example - creditCheckOk var not created in Alfresco Archive https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/manning-book-ch5-example-creditcheckok-var-not-created/m-p/178026#M131156 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>So in the Loan Application example, there are 4 variables declared at the start then the first task is a script task that does the following:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE><BR />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;out:println "Checking credit for " + name;<BR />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;creditCheckOk = false;<BR />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;if((income / 2) &gt; loanAmount){<BR />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;creditCheckOk = true;<BR />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;}<BR />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;out:println "Checked credit for " + name + " outcome is " + creditCheckOk;<BR /><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN></CODE></PRE><BR /><SPAN>Then there is a Java Service task that tries to look at the value of creditCheckOk. When I ran the example, the Java Service Task failed because it couldn't access it. I added creditCheckOk to the form and now it runs successfully, however it also appears as a checkbox in the start form which I don't think is the intended behavior.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>It would seem that the introduction of an undeclared variable in a Script Task is supposed to cause it to be created in the process context, however this didn't seem to happen.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>As the example is based on a several-years-old version of Activiti, I am wondering if the behavior has changed. If so, what should be done to correct this?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks!</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 01 Jul 2015 00:51:22 GMT jemmerling 2015-07-01T00:51:22Z Manning Book Ch5 example - creditCheckOk var not created https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/manning-book-ch5-example-creditcheckok-var-not-created/m-p/178026#M131156 So in the Loan Application example, there are 4 variables declared at the start then the first task is a script task that does the following:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;out<IMG id="smileytongue" class="emoticon emoticon-smileytongue" src="https://migration33.stage.lithium.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-tongue.png" alt="Smiley Tongue" title="Smiley Tongue" />rintln "Checking credit for " + name;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;creditCheckOk = false;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;if((income / 2) &gt; loanAmount){&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;creditCheckOk = true;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;}&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Wed, 01 Jul 2015 00:51:22 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/manning-book-ch5-example-creditcheckok-var-not-created/m-p/178026#M131156 jemmerling 2015-07-01T00:51:22Z Re: Manning Book Ch5 example - creditCheckOk var not created https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/manning-book-ch5-example-creditcheckok-var-not-created/m-p/178027#M131157 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Yes, we've added autoStoreVariables as an attribute that needs to be set to true for variables to be created automatically.
