Create Forms for tasks

[buetti]

Hi everyone,

I don't know how to create Forms in Activiti. Could anyone shortly explain, how to create it or give me a hands on example?

Thank you
Benjamin

I'm sorry, I'm not not so almighty as you are. Thanks for your response. If anyone else has a useful hint for me, maybe she/he could write it down here…

Thank you

There is a example shipped with Activiti that shows how to use forms. Look for the vacationRequest example.

I need the same about forms.

In the example there are the forms and a java-class TaskFormsTest.java.

Is this the class how is important to involve forms in the process?
Do i need the whole code of this java-class?

And the variables are declared in the .form?

Thank you for your answers.

Bye

No, that Java test is to programmatically test the API, which is not needed:

Please see the documentation  here: http://activiti.org/userguide/index.html#taskForms

There is an example form shown there, and also how you link it into a process.

Thanks.

I would like to run the VacationRequest Example.

How do I run it?
Could I run it by explorer or eclipse?

But if I run the javaclass TasksFormTest.java I couldn't find the vacation request process in explorer or activiti probe?

sorry for my question…. i don't find something to start this example for dummies

thanks,

bye

Hi,

Alternatively, you can run the vacation request process as Grails application. Please find out more from URL below:

HI,

I tried to replicate the same vacation request example.
I am unable to display the form in activiti explorer.Please help me out with the process.
I built the project using ant,this created a bar file for me and then i uploaded the .bar file in explorer.The form does not display in the explorer.
Please let me know where i might have have went wrong/or missed  out anything.

please do not abuse almost 2 year old topics and certainly not if you already posted a fairly similar question in another topic…which was also just slightly related
