APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The web IBM Process Designer doesn't warn you when there are
    recursively nested client-side human services. It tries to
    prevent from direct recursion (A >A >A > and so on) when
    changing the implementation of a diagram block. However, you can
     create indirect recursion (A > B > A> B > and so on), which
    causes StackOverflow errors at run time. You don't receive a
    warning so you can avoid these errors.
