This will work:
Â

Element inputElement = (Element)getVariableData(“inputVariable”,”payload”,”/ns2:M6DispatchProcessRequest/oaid”);
String oaid = inputElement.getTextContent();

Hi Peter
I’m really new to these things and I request you to provide a sample java application which can be used to query a dehydration store. In my BPEL process I use a human task. And I have a requirment to know if the human task got created, and i have to do this using a java client which will be executed in a remote location. and this java client needs to fetch few parameter to decide the correct task got created.

Can you please help me?

canwe use getVariableData(Int_Variable) ?

e.g. int my_Int_var = getVariableData(“BPEL_Integer_Var”);

great post. i have a java embedding step where i parse an incoming string, but when i click on the java embedding step, it just says ” bpelx:exec executed ” i want to see the output value that i am setting in the step. ex. base64ToString, replaceNameSpace, ConvertToXMLStructure. Here the first 2 steps are java embedding and only returns “bpelx:exec”, they store their final values in a variable “xmlString”. i want to see the value of xml string as it passes through the step. any idea how to do it ?

This should work…
use

String firstName = ((Element)getVariableData( â€œinputVariableâ€, â€œpayloadâ€, â€œ/client:myBPELProcess/client:inputâ€)).getFirstChild().getNodeValue();

The payload is a text element and the value is for the text element

How do you call getVariableData() if you have to accept a string value from the client and process it further in a Java code.

I have used the following syntax -
String firstName = ((Element)getVariableData(
“inputVariable”, “payload”,
“/client:myBPELProcess/client:input”)).getNodeValue();
firstName is always coming out to be a null value even though I pass the input value as string say “test”(after deployment of the BPEL process).

If I am calling getNodeName() instead then it is correctly giving me the right node as “ns1:input”, but it seems getNodeValue() is having some problems.

Am I going wrong somewhere?Please guide.

Thanks for sharing this useful information Peter. This uncovers more possibilities with Java embedding than just changing the instance name for example.
