Interface PvmScope

    • Method Detail

      • isScope

        boolean isScope()
        Indicates whether this is a local scope for variables and events if true, there will _always_ be a scope execution created for it.

        Note: the fact that this is a scope does not mean that it is also a sub process scope.

      • isSubProcessScope

        boolean isSubProcessScope()
        Indicates whether this scope is a sub process scope. A sub process scope is a scope which contains "normal flow".Scopes which are flow scopes but not sub process scopes:
        • a multi instance body scope
        • leaf scope activities which are pure event scopes (Example: User task with attached boundary event)
        Returns:
        true if this is a sub process scope
      • getEventScope

        PvmScope getEventScope()
        The event scope for an activity is the scope in which the activity listens for events. This may or may not be the flow scope.. Consider: boundary events have a different event scope than flow scope.

        The event scope is always a scope.

        Returns:
        the event scope of the activity
      • getFlowScope

        ScopeImpl getFlowScope()
        The flow scope of the activity. The scope in which the activity itself is executed.

        Note: in order to ensure backwards compatible behavior, a flow scope is not necessarily a a scope. Example: event sub processes.

      • getLevelOfSubprocessScope

        PvmScope getLevelOfSubprocessScope()
        The "level of subprocess scope" as defined in bpmn: this is the subprocess containing the activity. Usually this is the same as the flow scope, instead if the activity is multi instance: in that case the activity is nested inside a mutli instance body but "at the same level of subprocess" as other activities which are siblings to the mi-body.
        Returns:
        the level of subprocess scope as defined in bpmn
      • getActivities

        List<? extends PvmActivity> getActivities()
        Returns the flow activities of this scope. This is the list of activities for which this scope is the flow scope.
        Returns:
        the list of flow activities for this scope.
      • findActivity

        PvmActivity findActivity​(String activityId)
        Recursively finds a flow activity. This is an activitiy which is in the hierarchy of flow activities.
        Parameters:
        activityId - the id of the activity to find.
        Returns:
        the activity or null
      • findActivityAtLevelOfSubprocess

        PvmActivity findActivityAtLevelOfSubprocess​(String activityId)
        Finds an activity at the same level of subprocess.
        Parameters:
        activityId - the id of the activity to find.
        Returns:
        the activity or null
      • findTransition

        TransitionImpl findTransition​(String transitionId)
        Recursively finds a transition.
        Parameters:
        transitionId - the transiton to find
        Returns:
        the transition or null
