Replicate EventListener Lifecycle in BAMOE9.2

 

Hello, after talking with support they told us that the Task & Processes Lifecycle events are not the same in BAMOE8 and BAMOE9.

This is the resume they sent to us:

Summary of gap:

Feature                              BAMOE 8.x (jBPM)                    BAMOE 9.x (Kogito)
===================================================================================================
Before/After Node/Task Events        Supported via listeners             Not supported directly
TaskEventListener support            Full TaskLifeCycleEventListener     Not available
ProcessEventListener support         Full ProcessEventListener           Only CDI observers, post-event only
Kafka/Cloud Events                   Limited support                     First-class
Custom WorkItemHandlers              Full support                        Partially supported
===================================================================================================

 

In the roadmap to match all the functionality between both versions; we need to use in BAMOE9 the TaskEventListener support and ProcessEventListener support; including "Before/After Node/Task Events".

If this functionality is not covered we cannot migrate to BAMOE9, because our clients and expecting for these events.

Regards!
