Issue with Catching Intermediate Signal Event after migrating from jbpm 5 to jbpm 6

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Environment

  • Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite
    • 6.0.x
      -Red Hat JBoss BRMS
    • 6.0.x

Issue

  • We have a process which is created using JBPM 5 eclipse plugin that uses a Catching Intermediate Signal Event without an incoming connection. This process compiles and runs fine in JBPM 5, recently we have migrated this process to JBPM 6 and I get the following exception:
unable to parse xml : Exception class java.lang.IllegalArgumentException : Event node '' [11] has no incoming connection

Resolution

jBPM 6 plugin support more event types as compared with jBPM 5 plugin.This might be bug with jBPM 5 plugin which is resolved in jBPM 6. Also according to BPMN spec intermediate event node should have incoming and outgoing connection.

As the name implies, the Intermediate Event indicates where something happens (an Event) somewhere between the
start and end of a Process.
