Import external script file from repository [SOLVED]

Hi,How do I dynamically import a javascript file from the repository into an activiti script task? Using JBPM I would accomplish this as follows….<action class="org.alfresco.repo.workflow.jbpm.AlfrescoJavaScript"> <runas>admin</runas> <script> <expression>

Hello,

I haven't tried that one yet, but I would think that using the ScriptTaskListener / ScriptExecutionListener in Activiti with the same approach should work just as fine.
As a side-note, I really dislike the current way of import handling using non-standard tags inside of JavaScript source - I am currently preparing a contribution to enable a cleaner import mechanism.

Axel,

Thank you for your reply. You're right. It does work. It was the Eclipse Activiti design tool that was translating my import statement incorrectly into the process xml file. After modifying the xml file manually so that the import statement appeared exactly as in the JBPM process, it worked as expected. I wish you luck in your efforts for the URL import tag. I agree that the current method of importing an external resource is somewhat inelegant.

Thanks again for your comments.

Regards,

Eric
