Is it possible to prioritize executions in activiti?

[sushantmahajan]

Hi all,

I have a usecase where i want the various process executions to have a certain priority defined for them, so that higher priority executions could complete before the others. Is there a way to define priorities for the threads used by activiti?

Hi Sushant.

Process instances do not have execution priorities. If you want to implement execution priorities I would suggest:

1. to make steps (or sequence of steps) in the process definition asynchronous,
2. implement your own job executor which will take priorities into account.
