Dedicated job-executor for each web application possible?

ollib

Hi,

we plan a scenario with multiple web applications running on the same jboss instance using the same activiti database.

Each web application handles one type of process. The web-applications are packaged in war-files.

Is it possible to have a dedicated job executer for each web-application?

The job executor in web app "A" would then execute only the asynchronous tasks for process "A",
the job executor in web app "B" would execute only the asynchronous tasks for process "B" etc.

How can this be done?

Best regards
Oliver Bruening

Hi Oliver.

DefaultJobExecutor implementation does not support this kind of filtering.

You can try to implement your JobExecutor with this kind of filtering.

I came up with this solution. Not ideal, I know. Perhaps some kind of configurable filter can be implemented in the next version of Activiti 😉

<br>public class MyJobExecutor extends DefaultJobExecutor {<br>&nbsp; private static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(MyJobExecutor.class.getName());<br>&nbsp; <br>&nbsp; private String processDefinitionId;<br>&nbsp; <br>&nbsp; @Override<br>&nbsp; protected void ensureInitialization() {<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; acquireJobsCmd = new MyAcquireJobsCmd(this, processDefinitionId);<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; acquireJobsRunnable = new AcquireJobsRunnable(this);&nbsp; <br>&nbsp; }<br><br>&nbsp; public void setProcessDefinitionId(String processDefinitionId) {<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; this.processDefinitionId = processDefinitionId;<br>&nbsp; }<br><br>&nbsp; public String getProcessDefinitionId() {<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; return processDefinitionId;<br>&nbsp; }<br>&nbsp; <br>}<br>

Thanks for sharing the solution. We played around with a simmilar idea, but it's not really doable in a clean/generic way, so we decided this usecase should be covered by the user's themselves, using all available pluggability points.
