Create a new WFtask object is not working

gururaj_rp

I am trying to get the files attached in a cgitask.
I get the task ID from which I trying to Create a new WFtask object which is not working.

use TeamSite::Config;
use TeamSite::WFtask;
use TeamSite::WFworkflow;
use TeamSite::CGI_lite;

$cgi = TeamSite::CGI_lite->new();
$cgi->parse_data();

my $taskid = $cgi -> {form}{task_id} ;
#getting valid taskid

my $task = new TeamSite::WFtask($taskid);
if (!$task->IsValid()){
print "invalid";
}
$task is always invalid.

Why is it so?Any idea?

Regards,
Guru

This should work. Have you tried using iwgetwfobj with the task id ?
You can also try by by getting your second argument for your cgi file and using that value for your task id.

Check the taskid is valid ot not.Because sometimes taskid is passed twice as parameter.

Please can you tell me how can I replace
my $task = new TeamSite::WFtask( $taskid ) ;

using iwgetwfobj as I need to get the file attached for which I am trying to use

my @files = $task->GetFiles();

I am not able to get files as $task is invalid shows as HASH(Hexa number).

One very stupid question, are you sure that this CGI file is been called through your WF? is it part of your CGI Task?
As everything else what you are doing is absolutely correct.

gururaj_rp

yes sir..its a cgi task and ipl is called.

that ipl has the following code:

use TeamSite::Config;
use TeamSite::WFtask;
use TeamSite::WFworkflow;
use TeamSite::CGI_lite;

$cgi = TeamSite::CGI_lite->new();
$cgi->parse_data();

my $taskid = $cgi -> {form}{task_id} ;
#getting valid taskid

my $task = new TeamSite::WFtask($taskid);
if (!$task->IsValid()){
print "invalid";
}

I am getting a valid task_id but $task is coming as invalid.Do you why it is so?
if I get the valid task I want to get the files attached to that task.

Would like to see this tried
if (!($task->IsValid()))
put that extra bracket and try, hope it should work

...
my $taskid = $cgi -> {form}{task_id} ;
#getting valid taskid

my $task = new TeamSite::WFtask($taskid);
if (!$task->IsValid()){
print "invalid  TASKID: $taskid";
}

$task is always invalid.

Please add the highlighted text to your debugging line and let us know what you see.

I can think of several reasons for you to get an invalid task object - most of them have to do with having an invalid taskid value.

If you get something that looks like a valid taskid value - open up a shell on the TS server and run iwgetwfobj taskid and show us what you see there.

If you get something that looks like ARRAY(#8283) - then the problem is easily fixed by following the information contained in the Workflow Tutorial Supplement

If you get a blank value - the workflow tutorial may help you there too.

Beyond that you need to provide more context in terms of code, version of product, platform, etc.

Thanks everyone..the problem is solved.

Thanks everyone..the problem is solved.

Please indicate how the problem was solved, and after doing so, please close/lock the thread to indicate that it has been completed.

gururaj_rp

I had put the function in the wrong part of the code and the $task was not getting created.

I took it from sample_cg_task.ipl and it worked.
thanks for your suggestions.
