Hello,Just started playing around with Activiti and am having trouble getting a timer to fire off multiple times.I have a startEvent with a timer in my bpmn20.xml file:
<process id="TimerAutoExec" isExecutable="true">
<documentation>Timer Auto Exec</documentation>
<startEvent id="start">
<timerEventDefinition>
<timeCycle>R3/PT1M</timeCycle>
</timerEventDefinition>
</startEvent>
<sequenceFlow id="flow_start" sourceRef="start" targetRef="retrieve_data"></sequenceFlow>
<serviceTask id="retrieve_data" name="Retrieve New Data" activiti:class="gov.nasa.jpl.analytics.AutoRetrieveData"></serviceTask>
The serviceTask class is just creating a dummy file in my /tmp directory using the current timestamp as a filename.Only one file ever gets created…but it should be firing off 3 times total, once every minute(for three files).I've verified that the AsyncExecutor is enabled and activated in my config file so I think I might just be missing some easy "go" command to actually kick it off?This is the entire content of my main method in my java code:
ProcessEngine processEngine = ProcessEngines.getDefaultProcessEngine();
System.out.println("AsyncExecutor isActive: "
+ processEngine.getProcessEngineConfiguration().getAsyncExecutor().isActive());
String process_name = "TimerAutoExec";
String proc_id = processEngine.getRuntimeService().startProcessInstanceByKey(process_name).getId();
System.out.println("Spawning Workflow " + proc_id);
while(true)
{
TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(60);
System.out.println("Minute has passed, go check tmp!");
}
Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!-Celery
