Description Toshiya Kobayashi 2013-11-11 06:27:42 UTC 
Description of problem:

ParticipantPanel in business-central has blank participantUsers/participantGroups and "Assign" button is disabled. "ParticipantPanel" refers to "Task details" panel after choosing "Participants" dropdown (See attached ParticipantPanel.png) in "Groups Tasks" view.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a Human Task which potential owner is a group (e.g. 'HR')
2. Login with a member of the group (e.g. 'mary')
3. The task shows up in "Groups Tasks" view
4. Click the task and choose "Participants" dropdown in "Task details" panel


Actual results:

Both 'Groups' and 'Users' are blank and "Assign" button is disabled.

Expected results:

'Groups' shows 'HR' and 'Users' shows members in 'HR' group. "Assign" button is enabled when one of the members is selected.

* I'm not sure what the exactly "Expected results" are. This requires developer's review.

Analysis:

1) Looking at ParticipantPanel.java, it depends on TaskRef.participantUsers/participantGroups.

https://github.com/bpmc/bpm-console/blob/2.3.x/gui/app-base/src/main/java/org/jboss/bpm/console/client/task/ParticipantPanel.java#L127

2) Looking at the bottom panel in business-central, I observed the REST call.

3) TaskListFacade.getTasksForIdRefParticipation() is responsible for the REST call.

4) Tasks are returned by TaskManagement.getUnassignedTasks() and transformed into TaskRef. But there is no chance to populate participantUsers/participantGroups so the task is returned with empty participantUsers/participantGroups.
