TerminateEndEvent terminates the whole process tree (since 5.18/5.17)

[benpr]

Hello,

with the activiti engine 5.16.1 the terminateEndEvent terminates only the current process. Since 5.18 (or 5.17) this event terminates all processes in the whole tree.

Exists a new (or other) endEvent to normally end only the current process?
The normal endEvent doesn't work in my use case because there are catchEvents in the current process. In 5.16 the terminateEndEvent works fine for this.
Or exists another best practice way for this use case?


Thanks for your answer,

Ben

"Is it planned to re enable the old terminate end event functionality (terminate only the current process) as option in an end event?"

We're looking into it. There are a few users noticing the very same problem.
Thanks for the bpmn processes, that helps.

Do you have a Jira Ticket for me, to stay up to date?
Exists a release plan and/or a release date for the next version?

Just created this one : https://activiti.atlassian.net/browse/ACT-4080

No release date yet, but we're thinking about a 5.18.1 release, which would contain bug fixes. That probably is 2-3 weeks away.
