Simple, jBPM has (human) task functionality by default. Oracle had to make a proprietary extension to BPEL to achieve the same. So tasks are already 'async' "kazam" wrote : | My other question is that under JBPM, I am not entirely clear as what Client thread [Is it JBPM thread ? ]and the server thread[ Is it DBMS Thread for transaction processing ? ] means, this terminology has been used in the JBPM Documentation. Could you elaborate on this? Besides the async continuations, jBPM runs in the client thread (e.g. the webapp, fat client or whatever). It is a library, not a full separate server "kazam" wrote : | Also, under what scenarios or examples would this piece of functionality might come in handy. Async conituations? Mainly in the case of long running automated actions which you do not want to block a thread, transaction etc. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3953386#3953386 Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&p=3953386 Using Tomcat but need to do more?
