Hi all,
I want to call a java class method form a workflow.
For that i have used a handler tag in decision to point to a Java class that implements the DecisionHandler interface.
The decide() method of the handler class should performs the logic it needs to and then it should returns the name of the transition to take.
I have added the jar file of my java class at ..\Alfresco\tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\lib folder.
But when workflow reach the decision state it is not calling the java class decision() method.
The procesdefinition.xml file is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<process-definition xmlns="urn:jbpm.org:jpdl-3.1" name="wf:adhoc">
<swimlane name="initiator"/>
<start-state name="start">
<task name="wf:submitAdhocTask" swimlane="initiator"/>
<transition name="" to="adhoc"/>
</start-state>
<swimlane name="assignee">
<assignment class="org.alfresco.repo.workflow.jbpm.AlfrescoAssignment">
<actor>#{bpm_assignee}</actor>
</assignment>
</swimlane>
<task-node name="adhoc">
<task name="wf:adhocTask" swimlane="assignee">
<event type="task-create">
<script>
if (bpm_workflowDueDate != void) taskInstance.dueDate = bpm_workflowDueDate;
if (bpm_workflowPriority != void) taskInstance.priority = bpm_workflowPriority;
</script>
</event>
</task>
<transition name="" to="CheckAvailability">
<action class="org.alfresco.repo.workflow.jbpm.AlfrescoJavaScript">
<script>
if (wf_notifyMe)
{
var mail = actions.create("mail");
mail.parameters.to = initiator.properties.email;
mail.parameters.subject = "Adhoc Task " + bpm_workflowDescription;
mail.parameters.from = bpm_assignee.properties.email;
mail.parameters.text = "It's done";
mail.execute(bpm_package);
}
</script>
</action>
</transition>
</task-node>
<decision name="CheckAvailability">
<handler class="com.sample.decision.sampleDecisionHandler"></handler>
<transition name="trDeliver" to="completed"></transition>
</decision>
<task-node name="completed">
<task name="wf:completedAdhocTask" swimlane="initiator"/>
<transition name="" to="end"/>
</task-node>
<end-state name="end"/>
</process-definition>
and my java class code:
package com.sample.decision;
import java.io.BufferedWriter;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.Writer;
import org.jbpm.graph.exe.ExecutionContext;
import org.jbpm.graph.node.DecisionHandler;
public class sampleDecisionHandler implements DecisionHandler{
public String decide(ExecutionContext executionContext) throws Exception {
// Code to create a text file
System.out.println("Hello Inside sampleDecisionHandler ");
Writer output = null;
String text = "Inside Workflow - This is a decision";
File file = new File("C:\\Alfresco\\write.txt");
output = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(file));
output.write(text);
output.close();
System.out.println("Your file has been written");
// Go to transition trDeliver
return "trDeliver";
}
}
