Activiti validation

[foxter]

Hi

Does Activiti engine have some validation methods for bpmn model (BpmnModel class, BPMN 2.0 xml-parsing and others)?
Checkup flows directions and objects/process settings (tasks, gateways etc).

Yes: the bpmn xml is checked against the BPMN 2.0 xsd for obvious xml errors and then there is validation on sequenceflow reaching a correct target, correct boundary event connections, etc.

You could use the BpmnXmlConverter class. It has a validate method.

All validation is in the BPMNParse, obtained from a BPMNParser. If you can get hold of the BPMNDeployer(), you can get the BPMNParser and request this to parse. After parsing, all "problems" are exposed on the BPMNModel that rolls out of it.

Hi,

how can I call validation from BpmnParse? I have an xml file I want to validate

[jbarrez]

processEngineConfiguration.getProcessValidator().validate(bpmnModel)

Hi. I think i have related question. What if i want to validate certian FlowElement. If somebody changes FlowElement properties from UI i want to validate only this FlowElement. As i understand we can validate only entire BpmnModel. What can i do in my case?
