Method Detail

createCaseInstanceByKey

CaseInstance createCaseInstanceByKey(String caseDefinitionKey)

Creates a new CaseInstance of the latest version of the case definition with the given key. The new case instance will be in the ACTIVE state.

Parameters:
caseDefinitionKey - the key of the case definition to instantiate
Throws:
NotValidException - when the given case definition key is null.
NotFoundException - when no case definition is deployed with the given key.
ProcessEngineException - when an internal exception happens during the execution of the command

createCaseInstanceByKey

CaseInstance createCaseInstanceByKey(String caseDefinitionKey,

Note that a business key MUST be unique for the given case definition WHEN you have added a database constraint for it. In this case, only case instance from different case definition are allowed to have the same business key and the combination of caseDefinitionKey-businessKey must be unique.

Parameters:
caseDefinitionKey - the key of the case definition to instantiate
businessKey - a key that uniquely identifies the case instance in the context of the given case definition.
Throws:
NotValidException - when the given case definition key is null.
