Chemsseddine,

Take a look at the User Guide's Section about Event handlers.
It highlights 3 different methods of adding event listeners:

through configuration
engine-wide listeners at runtime through the API
and listeners added through specific process definitions

Use this as a starting point, but please come back if you have any further questions

As far as I understand, the event listener is listeneing to general event like ( task completed or Variable created) is it possible to make the event listener on specfic event like specifi task completed or do I have to use the task listener , I really like the event listener and the possibility to throw an event back in Alfresco process services but I want to use it for specfic event
