Method Detail

startProcessInstanceByKey

ProcessInstance startProcessInstanceByKey(String processDefinitionKey)
Starts a new process instance in the latest version of the process definition with the given key.

Parameters:
processDefinitionKey - key of process definition, cannot be null.
Throws:
ProcessEngineException - when no process definition is deployed with the given key.

In this case, only Process instance from different process definition are allowed to have the same business key and the combination of processdefinitionKey-businessKey must be unique.

Parameters:
processDefinitionId - the id of the process definition, cannot be null.
businessKey - a key that uniquely identifies the process instance in the context of the given process definition.
caseInstanceId - an id of a case instance to associate the process instance with a case instance.
variables - variables to be passed, can be null
Throws:
ProcessEngineException - when no process definition is deployed with the given key.
AuthorizationException - if the user has no Permissions.CREATE permission on Resources.PROCESS_INSTANCE and no Permissions.CREATE_INSTANCE permission on Resources.PROCESS_DEFINITION.

getActivityInstance

ActivityInstance getActivityInstance(String processInstanceId)

Allows retrieving the activity instance tree for a given process instance. The activity instance tree is aligned with the concept of scope in the BPMN specification. Activities that are "on the same level of subprocess" (ie. part of the same scope, contained in the same subprocess) will have their activity instances at the same level in the tree.

Examples:

Identity & Uniqueness:

Each activity instance is assigned a unique Id. The id is persistent, if you invoke this method multiple times, the same activity instance ids will be returned for the same activity instances. (However, there might be different executions assigned, see below)

Relation to Executions

The Execution concept in the process engine is not completely aligned with the activity instance concept because the execution tree is in general not aligned with the activity / scope concept in BPMN. In general, there is a n-1 relationship between Executions and ActivityInstances, ie. at a given point in time, an activity instance can be linked to multiple executions. In addition, it is not guaranteed that the same execution that started a given activity instance will also end it. The process engine performs several internal optimizations concerning the compacting of the execution tree which might lead to executions being reordered and pruned. This can lead to situations where a given execution starts an activity instance but another execution ends it. Another special case is the process instance: if the process instance is executing a non-scope activity (for example a user task) below the process definition scope, it will be referenced by both the root activity instance and the user task activity instance.

If you need to interpret the state of a process instance in terms of a BPMN process model, it is usually easier to use the activity instance tree as opposed to the execution tree.

Parameters:
processInstanceId - the id of the process instance for which the activity instance tree should be constructed.
Returns:
the activity instance tree for a given process instance or null if no such process instance exists.
Throws:
ProcessEngineException - if processInstanceId is 'null' or an internal error occurs.

    createProcessInstanceModification

    ProcessInstanceModificationBuilder createProcessInstanceModification(String processInstanceId)
    Define a modification of a process instance in terms of activity cancellations and instantiations via a fluent builder. Instructions are executed in the order they are specified.

    Parameters:
    processInstanceId - the process instance to modify

    createProcessInstanceById

    ProcessInstantiationBuilder createProcessInstanceById(String processDefinitionId)
    Returns a fluent builder to start a new process instance in the exactly specified version of the process definition with the given id. The builder can be used to set further properties and specify instantiation instructions to start the instance at any set of activities in the process. If no instantiation instructions are set then the instance start at the default start activity.

    Parameters:
    processDefinitionId - the id of the process definition, cannot be null.
    Returns:
    a builder to create a process instance of the definition

    createProcessInstanceByKey

    ProcessInstantiationBuilder createProcessInstanceByKey(String processDefinitionKey)
    Returns a fluent builder to start a new process instance in the latest version of the process definition with the given key. The builder can be used to set further properties and specify instantiation instructions to start the instance at any set of activities in the process. If no instantiation instructions are set then the instance start at the default start activity.

    Parameters:
    processDefinitionKey - the key of the process definition, cannot be null.
    Returns:
    a builder to create a process instance of the definition

    createMigrationPlan

    MigrationPlanBuilder createMigrationPlan(String sourceProcessDefinitionId,
                                             String targetProcessDefinitionId)
    Creates a migration plan to migrate process instance between different process definitions. Returns a fluent builder that can be used to specify migration instructions and build the plan.

    Parameters:
    sourceProcessDefinitionId - the process definition that instances are migrated from
    targetProcessDefinitionId - the process definition that instances are migrated to
    Returns:
    a fluent builder

    newMigration

    MigrationPlanExecutionBuilder newMigration(MigrationPlan migrationPlan)
    Executes a migration plan for a given list of process instances. The migration can either be executed synchronously or asynchronously. A synchronously migration blocks the caller until the migration was completed. The migration can only be successfully completed if all process instances can be migrated. If the migration is executed asynchronously a Batch is immediately returned. The migration is then executed as jobs from the process engine and the batch can be used to track the progress of the migration. The Batch splits the migration in smaller chunks which will be executed independently.

    Parameters:
    migrationPlan - the migration plan to executed
    Returns:
    a fluent builder

    createModification

    ModificationBuilder createModification(String processDefinitionId)
    Creates a modification of multiple process instances in terms of activity cancellations and instantiations via a fluent builder. Returns a fluent builder that can be used to specify modification instructions and set process instances that should be modified. The modification can either be executed synchronously or asynchronously. A synchronously modification blocks the caller until the modification was completed. The modification can only be successfully completed if all process instances can be modified. If the modification is executed asynchronously a Batch is immediately returned. The modification is then executed as jobs from the process engine and the batch can be used to track the progress of the modification. The Batch splits the modification in smaller chunks which will be executed independently.

    Parameters:
    processDefinitionId - the process definition that instances are modified of
    Returns:
    a fluent builder

    restartProcessInstances
