jBPM6 Developer Guide

Summary

In this chapter, we discussed the main points of providing human interactions. They are not necessarily tied to a business process execution and can be independently created by any other application. We have learned how we can configure the Human task component to interact with the process runtime, how users interact with it through task lists and task forms, and how we can extend it to provide the functionality we need.

The next chapter will show how the Human task component can be provided in a common frame of execution with the process runtime called the runtime engine, how it is configured, and how we can construct our own runtime engine for any special cases we might have in our organization.
