Issue

We are trying to set process variable like as:

WorkflowProcessInstance wfpi = (WorkflowProcessInstance) pi;
wfpi.setVariable( "Variable", "1234" );

but it fails with below error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Process instance 3[com.sample.bpmn.hello] is disconnected.
