Hello,I have an Activiti deployment with form enum properties. One of these properties is for countries, I would like to add new countries without redeployment (I have already 7 versions of this deployment).How can I do ?ThanksJean-Pascal

Hi Jean-Pascal,

The DynamicBpmnService would be an interesting way to allow for form enum values to be updated dynamically. We do have support for updating service task class names, user task assignment and a couple more options already. But right now you can only redeploy the process. You could also use an expression to resolve the countries from a database table via some Java logic as well.

Best regards,

Hi Tijs,

Can I redeploy the process and modify table ACT_RE_PROCDEF to delete the previous deployment and update new deployment row with ID_, VERSION_ and DEPLOYMENT_ID_
I have noticed a field called REV_. So is it possible to redeploy the same process with a new revision ?

Thanks
JP

No, when you redeploy, there will always be a new row created.
