Need help in understanding Activiti & Vaadin

[SriHari Kiran]

I am totally new to activiti bpm and I'm exploring the same.

As of now I am focusing on understanding how I can create UI(I am trying to use Vaadin here) and use it as a user task in the bpm(activiti bpm).

I understand formkey attribute to be specified but It doesnt seem to work for me.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Also Please suggest any pdf's which explains using both vaadin and activiti.

Thanks,
Hari.

Welcome to the Ranch.

I understand formkey attribute to be specified but It doesnt seem to work for me.

What, specifically, have you implemented, and how, exactly, does that or does that not work? TellTheDetails

Please suggest any pdf's which explains using both vaadin and activiti.

What, specifically, should those contain that is not covered by the extensive documentation on the Activiti and Vaadin web sites?

I am looking for any document or PDF's which covers hands on training on Activiti + Vaadin starting from the simplest to the most complex examples.

extensive documentation on the Activiti and Vaadin web sites are related to activiti and vaadin separately.
Which ever is covering both has complex applications which are not of great help for beginners.

I have created a very simple Vaadin form using eclipse.
I have also created a simple bpm using activiti which just has one user task assigned to kermit.

I have given the form key as the java file name (Guess I went wrong here) but not sure what to provide.
When I have executed the process, I could only see complete task button in my tasks but not the form which I have created.
