flowRedirect used in endstate of a subflow

[wences]

Hi,

I need to redirect to a new flow from a subflow, using this syntax in the subFlow :

<end-state id="dossierrecapbeneficiaire"
view="flowRedirect:consulterundossierbeneficiaire-flow?reference=${flowScope.objetformulaire.lePensi onne.representantLegal.beneficiaire.reference}">

</end-state>


It doesn't work and I get an exception which says there is no transition for "dossierrecapbeneficiaire" in the subflow state of the parent flow.

Is there a way to end both subflow and parent flow from the endstate of a subFlow, redirecting to a new created flow ?

Thanks

Try leaving the end-state in the subflow without the redirect and instead do the redirect in the calling flow

SubFlow:

<end-state id="dossierrecapbeneficiaire"/>

Calling Flow:

<subflow-state id="callSubFlow" subflow="thesubflowname">
  <transition on="dossierrecapbeneficiaire" to="dossierrecapbeneficiaire"/>
</subflow>

<end-state id="dossierrecapbeneficiaire" view="flowRedirect:consulterundossierbeneficiaire-flow?reference=${flowScope.objetformulaire.lePensi onne.representantLegal.beneficiaire.reference}">
</end-state>

Yes, philwebb has the right idea.

The "view" attribute of an end-state is ignored if it is within a subflow. Only in the top-level flow will an end-state's "view" attribute get evaluated.

Thanks for your help, but I don't want to put in the root state any state related to a child flow.

I use a view-state instead of a end-state to do the redirection (It is not a perfect solution because the flow is not terminated and leave in the repository until the user session has reached the maximum of flow it can keep alive).

I think that you can't use an end-state with redirect from a subflow. Syntax let do it, but doesn't work.
As you say, using a view-state, the subFlow is not terminated and parent flow too. A solution could be return to the parent flow, using conversationScope to send a param from subflow to parent flow. Then, parent flow, process this param and transits to end-state with the flowRedirect instruction.
