Rob,

You should signal your flow about the occurence of an event using \
processInstance.signalEvent(name, value); So the problem is, how do I find the right \
process instance to signal?

Drools Flow currently does not allow for automatic correlation of messages.   You can \
however use the processInstanceId for correlation purposes:

a) store the process instance id as part of your domain model, when the event occurs \
due to a change of one of your facts, you can simply retrieve the process instance id \
from the fact

b) you can maintain a separate table that maps process instance id to some other \
domain data (like for example a fact id), so that you can lookup the process instance \
id like this.

We'll be looking at how to provide more automatic correlation mechanisms as part of \
the BPMN2 implementation.

Kris
