Documented as Known Issue in Release Notes:



https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPM-2791

    If there is a variable mapping between the Enterprise Service Bus and the Business Process
    Manager and the mapped value happens to be an empty string, then the result will be null. Also,
    if an object is persisted in an Oracle database with a field set to be an empty sting, the field value
    will also be null.

    Currently, there is no work-around for this problem.
Comment 3 Anne-Louise Tangring 2010-09-21 19:48:45 UTC 
This was triaged for SOA 5.1.0. Not in SOA 5.1.0
Comment 4 Alejandro Guizar 2010-12-09 00:22:57 UTC 
Oracle treats a zero length string as NULL. That is a well known "feature" of Oracle; jBPM is innocent.
