i am using activiti version 6.
i created a bpmn process from activiti-app
then i want to strart that process from activiti-rest.war using the api
http://localhost:8080/activiti-rest/service/runtime/process-instances
request body : { "processDefinitionKey":"cep_dispatch_process", "businessKey":"myBusinessKey", "returnVariables": false}header :Content-Type:application/json
as i see in the LOG process is being started in tomcat threads.
refering latest github code:
Activiti-activiti-6.0.0\modules\activiti-rest\src\main\java\org\activiti\rest\service\api\runtime\process\ProcessInstanceCollectionResource.java
when i see method
@RequestMapping(value = "/runtime/process-instances", method = RequestMethod.POST, produces = "application/json") public ProcessInstanceResponse createProcessInstance(@RequestBody ProcessInstanceCreateRequest request, HttpServletRequest httpRequest, HttpServletResponse response) {
i can see process is being started and not waiting for process to complete , http response is 201. i can understand request is not being hold for process instance to complete
instance = processInstanceBuilder.start(); response.setStatus(HttpStatus.CREATED.value());
please refer the log snipped below, i can see process is executing in server thread and request is waiting till process completed
