Hi,This is a follow up to the post for http://forums.activiti.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3798&p=15043&hilit=CDI+javaDelegate#p15043I'm having trouble getting the Delegate to wire up using CDI. I've tried using @Named but it doesn't seem to be working. Regardless, I would have expected

Just to follow up, I've been reading more online, and I would like to get a little clarification of the difference in support for CDI between plain Activiti and the camunda fox version. Should these examples work in vanilla Activiti? I haven't yet downloaded the camunda fox version to play with.

Hi joshb,

please take a look at this example:
https://bitbucket.org/camunda/fox-showcases/src/7dacdfb55b38/versicherungsantrag

it has two maven profiles, one to work with camunda fox and one to work with "plain activiti".

(unfortunately it is only available in German)

Daniel,

thanks for the reply. I was able to get it up and running..doing a little debugging, I was able to determine that it wasn't using the CdiResolver. Checking with the example you gave, I was using the programatic config and was using the JtaProcessEngineConfiguration instead of the CdiJtaProcessEngineConfiguration.

A follow up question - is there a reason that the plain Java Class type / JavaDelegate doesn't work? I like that in the designer it allows you to "select class", and it is the way I would have expected it to work with CDI. Now that its working though, I am a pretty happy camper.

I have looked at several BPM options, and Activiti is the first one that I really think we could use. You have done a great job, and keep up the great work!
