Not able to access a multiInstance variable of a subprocess in errorEvent flow within the same subprobess

[onlyhemant2410]

Hi,

I want to write an error handling flow in which I can fix the individual element(user task) of a list based upon error in a sub process.

AS per the example, I have created a su process which has multiInstance loop and has local variable "name". at a specific condition I throw and error and will be caught by an EventSubProcess within the same sub-process, raising and catching of event works perfectly but when I try to access the same variable "name" using form property in the 'Fix Name' user task, I can't, please help.

Please let me know if you need further information.

Thanks.

Hi,

Documentation says (http://www.activiti.org/userguide/#bpmnSubProcess) that variables should be accessible.
Could you create jUnit test for it please?

Thanks Martin, this is my first time posting a question on activiti forum and I must appreciate the community, incredibly fast turnaround time, thanks.

I don't have a junit but this is how I was executing the code. Let me see how could I create a junit for it (need to look at documentation.)


Map<String, Object> properties = new HashMap<String, Object>();
String[] names = {"Jerry", "Rajeev", "Vijay","Hemant"};
properties.put("names", Arrays.asList(names));

runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey("InnerLoopEventProcess", properties);

please let me know if this is helpful, thanks again.

Unit tests are easy: https://github.com/Activiti/activiti-unit-test-template

As Martin said, variables are available in an embedded subprocess.
