Hi,
I am new to MQ workflow.... I have created a simple process... but got stuck with one issue....
There is activity which has a java program assioscated with it. The program basically, upates the field in activity container and based on that field value we exit from the activity.
Now in the java program, i cant check out the work item, because its in running state.... In such situation - how do i update the container?

Well...... in a nutshell:
There is a fundamental difference between Starting an activity or Checking it out
If you have a Java program implementation your assumption is, that the activity is started, not Checked out.
In this case the Programming Guide describes the Container API that a (Java) program implementation uses to
- read input container data and
- set output container data
CheckOut() is used in a graphical environment where a user sets the container values and flags the activity as finished. No (Java) program is running here. |

Why is the activity in a running state? Who started it? Do you have it set as Automatic Start? If the activity is in a ready state you should be able to do your checkout/checkin.

Hi,
Yes, the activity is auto start.
Is there a way to update container while the workitem is in running state?

| When a work item is in running state, you cannt update the container BUT when you restart that work item, you may update container manually. This is not a suggested way to update the container. I suggest you understand the business process first and design the flow for the needs. |
