Description Jiri Pechanec 2013-06-17 08:32:18 UTC

I'd expect I can use a similar mapping as I can use for input mapping, so for example for input I set

Process/in = message.content

But if I try it for output mapping like this

Process/out = message.content then it does not work. It is hardcoded in BPMExchangeHandler.handleOutput() that I need to use 'contentOutput' parameter to set a message content based on a BPM variable and the other variables are propagated automatically as context properties.

As tooling by default proposes message.content as a default for output mapping and documentation does not speak about magic names I suppose this is a bug.

Comment 1 Jiri Pechanec 2013-06-17 08:47:59 UTC

Also please look at Actions tab for BPM Component, tables Input and Output, column names Expression and Variable are VERY confusing as they means something completely different in these two contexts.

This is fixed in https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SWITCHYARD-1382 for 1.0.  This change should be in Alpha 2.
