        <entry key="services" value-ref="ServiceRegistry" />
        <entry key="sequenceUtil" value-ref="sequenceUtil" />
    </map>    
</property>

    <property name="customTypes">
        <list>
            <ref bean="activitiScriptNodeType" />
            <ref bean="activitiScriptNodeListType" />
        </list>
    </property>
    <property name="customPreBPMNParseListeners">
        <list>
            <ref bean="activitiParseListener" />
        </list>
    </property>
</bean>

Hello,

Have the same problem. Following Nick Smith's slides, it should be enough extending the BaseJavaDelegate, but it's not…. still facing the same issue. Hope the Alfresco 4 release (not the beta one) solves this problem….
