In-flight process modification

Hi,I hope activiti provides support for this feature, but unfortunately I couldn't find any. I have requirement that business user should allow modify process definition and use it for the rest of flow for the in-flight instance.Thanks

This is almost never a real requirement but an indication that the user does not really know what his own process looks like. If he did you would be able to model it in most cases.

There are some things you can do though to "manipulate" the execution path of a process instance. For example you can dynamically add a subprocess and use callActivity with an expression to execute it.

And you can use 'ad-hoc' tasks

How do you add an ad-hoc task when the process has already started? thanks

I would start by searching the forum…. very recent posts about this.

Could you point us to some. That would be helpful. Once I write an example, I will post it
