CGI Task in Java in chain of CGI Tasks

Environment[indent]TeamSite 7.2.1 [Patch 1] on Linux[/indent]
Background[indent]I am attempting to insert a custom CGI Task [B] in between two of the N CGI Tasks that exist at the beginning of the PLC [variant] workflow - in this case, in between "Attach Dependencies" [A] and "Check Migration Status" [C].

The task is intended to perform some checks on the files that attached to it and either:

is set on all three tasks.

t.chooseTransition(transition, msg); returns a CSTask (the task that comes next, which you just activated). What you want to do is then write back a redirect to the browser that made the call in the first place, whether via HTTP302 or a javascript window.location. Either way, you want to make the browser go to the following URL, with the task ID of the *next* task, not the one you just completed. Specifying cgi_transition=true should tell the UI to render the *next* CGI screen if the target is a CGI task, else it'll close the browser window (ccpro) or go back to the home screen (ccstd).
/iw-cc/transitiontask?taskid=1234&done_page=/iw-cc/base/util/close_or_home.html.

Note that there's an important difference between the above, and calling the same URL with the task ID of the *completed* task plus parameter cgi_transition=true. Both will pull up the next CGI, but the latter will ask the user for transition comments first (and doesn't actually transition if the user closes the screen).
