How to send a message to a receiveTask

[farrukh_najmi]

It appears that a receiveTask currently can only accept a signal (string) via the RuntimeService.signal() method.

IMHO, this is a fairly major limitation. I did not see an issue in JIRA for it so I have created one here:

http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ACT-250

What are the current plans for this feature? I will be glad to help with its design/dev/test.

Huh! Can you be a little more specific please. And also can you please identify yourself?
I see that you joined the forum < 24 hours ago. I am not sure if you are really from the dev team or a prank.

Farrukh: whats the use case ? What would you be passing ?

Note that the current impl of the receive task is just a wait state.

Hi Joram, I am replying and moving this thread to dev forum where it seems to be better placed… Please follow it here:
