I have a process that is largely an orchestration of services. Human tasks are involved only when service tasks fail. So, I want the runtimeService.startProcessInstance() call to block until the process completes or a human task is created. Is there a way to do this?
You're lucky, this is the default way how activiti runs processes. A call to startProcessInstance will execute the process in the calling thread until a wait-state (user-taks, receive-task- is reached OR when the process reaches it's end.
