++ This bug is a clone of bug 779572 ++ Date of First Response: 2010-03-18 18:45:22 project_key: SOA See linked issue.
Link: Added: This issue depends JBPM-2791
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.
This was triaged for SOA 5.1.0. Not in SOA 5.1.0
Oracle treats a zero length string as NULL. That is a well known "feature" of Oracle; jBPM is innocent. http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:5984520277372
