          Hi Erki,

           

          You could get attachment data from process variable. Like this:

           

          <attachment name='strip.gif' expression='${strip}' mime-type='image/gif'/>

           

           

          Please refer the testcase in svn.

            Hi!

             

            Sometimes i need to add one attachment, sometimes 5 attachments. Is it possible to add attachments dynamically in jPDL (to use "decision" or "foreach" operation under "attachments" element)?

              Hi Erki,

               

              If you want to achieve dynamic attachments when sending mails.  I sugguest you create a custom mailProducer,  Please refer here:

                I found easy solution. It's not nice but it works.

                 

                i - number of attachments.

                 

                <decision name="sendEmailDecision">
                     <transition to="sendEmailWith1Attachment">
                          <condition expr="#{i == 1}"/>
                     </transition>
                     <transition to="sendEmailWith2Attachments">
                          <condition expr="#{i == 2}"/>
                     </transition>
                     <transition to="sendEmailWith3Attachments">
                          <condition expr="#{i == 3}"/>
                     </transition>
                     <transition to="end"/>
                </decision>
                <mail name="sendEmailWith1Attachment">
                ...
                     <attachments>
                          <attachment file="#{attachmentAddresses.get(0)}" mime-type="txt/xml" name="#{attachmentNames.get(0)}"/>
                     </attachments>
                     <transition to="end"/>
                </mail>
                <mail name="sendEmailWith2Attachments">
                ...
                     <attachments>
                          <attachment file="#{attachmentAddresses.get(0)}" mime-type="txt/xml" name="#{attachmentNames.get(0)}"/>
                          <attachment file="#{attachmentAddresses.get(1)}" mime-type="txt/xml" name="#{attachmentNames.get(1)}"/>
                     </attachments>
                     <transition to="end"/>
                </mail>
                <mail name="sendEmailWith3Attachments">
                ...
                     <attachments>
                          <attachment file="#{attachmentAddresses.get(0)}" mime-type="txt/xml" name="#{attachmentNames.get(0)}"/>
                          <attachment file="#{attachmentAddresses.get(1)}" mime-type="txt/xml" name="#{attachmentNames.get(1)}"/>
                          <attachment file="#{attachmentAddresses.get(2)}" mime-type="txt/xml" name="#{attachmentNames.get(2)}"/>
                     </attachments>
                     <transition to="end"/>
                </mail>
