5.4. Migrating task service

Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite 6 provides support for a locally running task server only. This means that you do not need to setup any messaging service in your project. This differs from Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite 5 because it provided a task server that was bridged from the core engine by using, most commonly, the messaging system provided by HornetQ.

To help you bridge the gap until you can migrate this in your current architecture, there is a helper or utility method, LocalHTWorkItemHandler.

Since the TaskService API is part of the public API you will now need to refactor your imports because of package changes and refactor your methods due to API changes themselves.
