Retrieve error code from boundary event (Java Api)

[gribas]

Hi folks,

I am a newbie on activity engine, I searched if is there a way to retrieve the error code in Java from a boundary event but I didn't find anything.

Basically I have a process similar to this (it's a reduced format of the main one):

Is there a way to know the Error code that has been thrown and it goes to the error start event? Is there a way to store the error code easily on the process?

I would like to know the error code because then I can present an error message to the user.

I checked the runtime service but there I didn't find anything for check the errors.

Thanks for your help,

Regards,
Gerard.

Don't you need to mention the error code in your catching part, either error start event or a boundary event to catch it in first place ?
It means you will know the error code, becuase it is activated.

Hi,
I have the same question. The problem is that boundaryEvent returns workflow (for example) to previous user task and I can't find any built-in support for getting error code from user task.

Not sure if I'm following here. The fact that the event was catched, is the information. You could set a variable using a listener if you need it later on.

Yes, I need to save the error code (or anything else about the error) for later usage and was wondering if Activiti do it itself.
Will do it with listeners, thanks
