[Bpmscript-users] Human interaction and futures

[Artti <ar...@am...>]

Hi,

I was just thinking; now that we can call other services asynchronously via
futures:

var future = sender.send("http://servicemix.org/components", "echo", true,
input.getInMessage().getContent());

// ... do something while waiting
var exchange = future.get();

It would be really nice to be able to do the same thing with human tasks:

var taskRequest = taskService.taskRequest("How do you feel about
BpmScript?");
taskRequest.response("rocks", "Rocks!");
taskRequest.setRole("ANONYMOUS");

var future = taskService.request(taskRequest); <--

// ... do something while waiting
var result = future.get();

At least if you need to collect hundreds of responses, you don't want to do
that sequentially :-)

Hi Artii,

You should be able to do this now (have a look at how the task service is
put together in the bpmscriptlibrary.js file that ships with bpmscript). 

I'll look to making it easier in an upcoming version,

cheers,
j.
