How to persist the variable

[zicongwang]

Hi all,
   I want to persist some variables into database,Does activiti provide any feature to do that
eg,

RuntimeService runtimeService = activitiRule.getRuntimeService();
Map<String, Object> variableMap = new HashMap<String, Object>();
variableMap.put("name", "Activiti");
‍‍‍‍

I want to get the value of variable name and put it into mysql database,Does Activiti 5.2 provide any feature to do that such as JPA, and How to do that

Thanks in advance

For regular variables: runtimeService.setVariables() -> all these variables will be stored in the database.

For JPA, see userguide http://activiti.org/userguide/index.html#N1140A
