Annotation Type ProcessEngineComponent

@Target(value=TYPE)
@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
@Documented
public @interface ProcessEngineComponent

Indicates that the given bean is an Activiti handler. An activiti handler is a bean that is so annotated to respond to events ("states") in an Activiti BPM process. Generically, it is a class that has been adapted to be usable in an Activiti process

For example, suppose we have registered a BPMN process that has the following declaration:

<service-task activiti:expression = "myBean" id = "confirm-receipt" />

This is a state that will be entered from Activiti and execution will flow through to the bean registered in the context as "myBean." To subscribe to that, a POJO need only implement (optionally) ProcessEngineComponent and, on a method, add State to indicate that the method in particular is tasked with responding to a state. If applied to a bean and there are no ProcessEngineComponent.ActivitiComponent annotations present, then one option might be to automatically enlist all public methods as handlers for states whose IDs or names are inferred from the method name:

public void confirmReceipt(..) would be treated the same as

@State( "confirm-receipt") public void confirmReceipt (..),
