You can get the org.kie.api.task.TaskService task service from RuntimeEngine (the getTaskService() method), which is a wrapper for the service; the task service is created and wrapped into RuntimeEngine (and the underlying session) by RuntimeManager, which uses TakServiceFactory:

InternalTaskService internalTaskService = (InternalTaskService) taskServiceFactory.newTaskService();

• LocalTaskServiceFactory: To be used in non-CDI environments

The factory configures the task service with the following references:

• EntityManagerFactory instance (taken from RuntimeEnvironment).

• UserGroupCallback (taken from RuntimeEnvironment). If no custom UserGroupCallback implementation is provided, a default MvelUserGroupCallbackImpl is used; this loads the UserGroupsAssignmentsOne...
