QUESTION: Process not in COMPLETED state?

[eriknyk]

QUESTION: Why if we create & run the instance CreateAndRunInstance simple_task.bpmn
technically the process finished but if after CreateAndRunInstance() finishes then I dump the instance state it is in state ACTIVE when it looks like it should to has COMPLETED state.

        // create a new named engine
	bpmnEngine := bpmn_engine.New("a name")
	// basic example loading a BPMN from file,
	//process, err := bpmnEngine.LoadFromFile("simple_task.bpmn")
	process, err := bpmnEngine.LoadFromFile("simple_user_task.bpmn")

	if err != nil {
		panic("file \"simple_task.bpmn\" can't be read.")
	}
	// register a handler for a service task by defined task type
	bpmnEngine.NewTaskHandler().Id("hello-world").Handler(printContextHandler)

	bpmnEngine.NewTaskHandler().Assignee("assignee").Handler(userTaskHandler())

	// setup some variables
	variables := map[string]interface{}{}
	variables["foo"] = "bar"
	// and execute the process
	instance, err := bpmnEngine.CreateAndRunInstance(process.ProcessKey, variables)
	if err != nil {
		return
	}

	println("InstanceKey: " + strconv.FormatInt(instance.GetInstanceKey(), 10))
	println("State: " + string(instance.GetState()))

Output:

< Hello World >
ElementId                = hello-world
BpmnProcessId            = Simple_Task_Process
ProcessDefinitionKey     = 1664696323368030208
ProcessDefinitionVersion = 1
CreatedAt                = 2023-06-02 13:11:46.710748 -0500 -05 m=+0.003794422
Variable 'foo'           = bar
InstanceKey: 1664696323368030209
State: "ACTIVE"

Hi @eriknyk, in order to help you, can you please provide the userTaskHandler handler function ?

I will do, thanks @jinjaghost

Hi @eriknyk
Indeed, as @jinjaghost mentioned, is important that the task handler sends the "complete" signal.
Else, a task is considered un-finished == still active.
