setowner.ipl

Can any body provide me with setowner.ipl or the code which sets the owner for the task in a workflow which is still inactive.The owner is determined from the previous task.

It's a farily trivial script - attached.

(*so trivial, there's an error in it: either change both occurrences of $wfid to $ARGV[0], or around line 35 insert:

my $wfid = $ARGV[0];

-- sorry about that, should have tested before I posted *)

Here's a start:

=========================================
#! c:/iw-home/iw-perl/bin/iwperl.exe 

use TeamSite::WFworkflow;
use TeamSite::WFtask;

my($jobid, $taskid, $area) = (@ARGV[0..2]);

my($change_task_name, $new_owner_name) = (@ARGV[3..4]);

print "Creating job object for $jobid...\n";
my $job = new TeamSite::WFworkflow($jobid);

print "Getting task object for task $change_task_name...\n";
my ($result, $change_owner_task) = $job->GetTaskByName($change_task_name);

die "Couldn't find task $change_task_name" if ! $result;

my $ID = $change_owner_task->GetId();

print "Changing owner of task $ID to $new_owner_name...\n";
#$result = $change_owner_task->SetOwner($new_owner_name);

$result = `iwsettaskownerandarea $ID $new_owner_name $area`;

#die "Couldn't change owner to $new_owner_name" if $result;
print "$result\n";

===============================================

Note the commented-out call to SetOwner--I can't make that work. I have to call the CLT iwsettaskownerandarea instead. That works.

I haven't done the obligatory callback, etc for an externaltask.

Update on that last post: I was in a hurry, accidentally inverted the order of the arguments being passed into the script. WF externaltasks get the custom arguments ($change_task_name, $new_owner_name in my case) _before_ the standard args ($jobid, $taskid, $area), not after. Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.
