org.jbpm.command.GetTaskListCommand.execute() throws JbpmPersistenceException if there is no pooled task instances for a given actor even if the actor has personally assigned task instaces.

In case of CP01, GetTaskListCommand returns the personal task list without Exception.

This behavior is caused by the change introduced by r4076 in org.jbpm.db.TaskMgmtSession.findTaskInstancesByIds().

r4705
===
public List<TaskInstance> findTaskInstancesByIds(List<Long> taskInstanceIds) {
List<TaskInstance> result;
if (taskInstanceIds.isEmpty())

{ result = Collections.emptyList(); }

else {
try

{ Query query = session.getNamedQuery("TaskMgmtSession.findTaskInstancesByIds"); query.setParameterList("taskInstanceIds", taskInstanceIds); result = CollectionUtil.checkList(query.list(), TaskInstance.class); }

catch (Exception e)

{ handle(e); throw new JbpmException("couldn't get task instances by ids '" + taskInstanceIds + "'", e); }

}
return result;
}
===

r4706
===
public List findTaskInstancesByIds(List taskInstanceIds) {
try

{ return session.getNamedQuery("TaskMgmtSession.findTaskInstancesByIds") .setParameterList("taskInstanceIds", taskInstanceIds) .list(); }

catch (HibernateException e)

{ handle(e); throw new JbpmPersistenceException("couldn't get task instances by ids '" + taskInstanceIds + "'", e); }

}

The change was related to JBPM-2205 and removed the empty check because the method Collections.emptyList() is not supported in jdk1.4. But I think an equivalent empty check should be restored.
