V15.2 - BPMN simulation failure?
« on: December 03, 2020, 04:04:55 pm »
In a recent post, I cited this diagram:

I then extended the global task to include some direct pathing from an activity  (similar to Figure 10.41 - A Call Activity object calling a Process (Expanded) in the BPMN 2.0 standard).

I changed Activity1 to be a script activity and set the following variables:
Code: [Select]
sim.OK=false;sim.UseGate=false;Imagine my surprise when I saw the following execution:
Code: [Select]
StartEvent1->Activity1->Activity6->Gateway->Activity3->EndEvent1->EndEvent1(NOTE the duplication of ->EndEvent1! - from Simulation Window)
Instead of (my expectation - based on the variable values)
Code: [Select]
StartEvent1->Activity1->Activity6->EndEvent1
Setting
Code: [Select]
sim.OK=false;sim.UseGate=true;Yields:
Code: [Select]
StartEvent1->Activity1->Gateway->Activity6->Activity3->EndEvent1->EndEvent1(NOTE the duplication of ->EndEvent1 , again!)
Instead of (my expectation - based on the variable values)
Code: [Select]
StartEvent1->Activity1->Gateway->Activity3->EndEvent1
These executions have to be wrong, don't they?  Before I report a bug, I want to make sure it's not something I'm doing/not doing.

TIA,
Paolo

[BUMP]

Anyone?  Sparxians?

Is the model or the execution wrong?  Something is wong?

I don't think any of the developers who work on simulation monitor the forum. You will probably need to send in a support request.
