SET TASK NAME AND DESCRIPTION DYNAMICALLY FROM THE bpmn20.xml FILE

[chilopoda]

Greetings good people!

I have a requirement to allow the user to dynamically change the existing task name and task description.
So far from this post: http://forums.activiti.org/content/list-all-user-tasks-bpm-file-0 , I'm able to list all the tasks in the bpmn20.xml file.  I'm only able to see type and name of the respective tasks and no task description.
Anyone with idea on how to change the task name displayed here?
I also checked on this post: http://www.manning-sandbox.com/thread.jspa?threadID=48416 which recommends using SaveTask() method but seems this method only saves the task id and not the new task name.

Any help is highly appreciated.

Hi,

You should be able to update the task name like this:

<blockcode>
task.setName("Update name");
taskService.saveTask(task);
</blockcode>
