Interface ProcessInstanceModificationBuilder

    • Method Detail

      • startBeforeActivity

        ProcessInstanceModificationInstantiationBuilder startBeforeActivity​(String activityId,
                                                                            String ancestorActivityInstanceId)

        Submits the instruction:

        Start before the specified activity. Instantiate the given activity as a descendant of the given ancestor activity instance.

        In particular:

        • Instantiate all activities between the ancestor activity and the activity to execute
        • Instantiate and execute the given activity (respects the asyncBefore attribute of the activity)

        Parameters:
        activityId - the activity to instantiate
        ancestorActivityInstanceId - the ID of an existing activity instance under which the new activity instance should be created
      • startTransition

        ProcessInstanceModificationInstantiationBuilder startTransition​(String transitionId,
                                                                        String ancestorActivityInstanceId)

        Submits the instruction:

        Start the specified sequence flow. Instantiate the given sequence flow as a descendant of the given ancestor activity instance.

        In particular:

        • Instantiate all activities between the ancestor activity and the activity to execute
        • Execute the given transition (does not consider sequence flow conditions)

        Parameters:
        transitionId - the sequence flow to execute
        ancestorActivityInstanceId - the ID of an existing activity instance under which the new transition should be executed
      • cancelActivityInstance

        ProcessInstanceModificationBuilder cancelActivityInstance​(String activityInstanceId)

        Submits the instruction:

        Cancel an activity instance in a process. If this instance has child activity instances (e.g. in a subprocess instance), these children, their grandchildren, etc. are cancelled as well.

        Process instance cancellation will propagate upward, removing any parent process instances that are only waiting on the cancelled process to complete.

        Parameters:
        activityInstanceId - the id of the activity instance to cancel
      • cancelTransitionInstance

        ProcessInstanceModificationBuilder cancelTransitionInstance​(String transitionInstanceId)

        Submits the instruction:

        Cancel a transition instance (i.e. an async continuation) in a process.

        Parameters:
        transitionInstanceId - the id of the transition instance to cancel
      • cancelAllForActivity

        ProcessInstanceModificationBuilder cancelAllForActivity​(String activityId)

        Submits the instruction:

        Cancel all instances of the given activity in an arbitrary order, which are:

        • activity instances of that activity
        • transition instances entering or leaving that activity

        Therefore behaves like cancelActivityInstance(String) for each individual activity instance and like cancelTransitionInstance(String) for each individual transition instance.

        The cancellation order of the instances is arbitrary

        Parameters:
        activityId - the activity for which all instances should be cancelled
      • cancellationSourceExternal

        ProcessInstanceModificationBuilder cancellationSourceExternal​(boolean external)

        A canceled process instance receives a termination state to indicate the source of the cancellation call. The state can have the following values:

        • EXTERNALLY_TERMINATED: the cancellation was triggered by an external source. (e.g. REST call, external application)
        • INTERNALLY_TERMINATED: the cancellation was triggered internally. (e.g. by the engine)

        Parameters:
        external - was the cancellation triggered by an external source? true for EXTERNALLY_TERMINATED, false for INTERNALLY_TERMINATED.
      • executeAsync

        Batch executeAsync​(boolean skipCustomListeners,
                           boolean skipIoMappings)
        Parameters:
        skipCustomListeners - specifies whether custom listeners (task and execution) should be invoked when executing the instructions
        skipIoMappings - specifies whether input/output mappings for tasks should be invoked throughout the transaction when executing the instructions
        Returns:
        a batch job to be executed by the executor
        Throws:
        AuthorizationException - if the user has no Permissions.CREATE or BatchPermissions.CREATE_BATCH_MODIFY_PROCESS_INSTANCES permission on Resources.BATCH.
