/**
* A utility to declare the process application in which subsequent engine API calls
* are executed. Process application context is important for the engine
* to access custom classes as well as process-application-level entities like
* script engines or Spin data formats.
*
*
By default, the process engine only guarantees to switch into the context
* of the process application when it executes custom code (e.g. a JavaDelegate).
* This utility allows to declare a process application into which the process engine
* then switches as soon as it begins executing a command.
*
* Example using a variable that is serialized with a Camunda Spin data format:
*
*
* try {
* ProcessApplicationContext.setCurrentProcessApplication("someProcessApplication");
* runtimeService.setVariable(
* "processInstanceId",
* "variableName",
* Variables.objectValue(anObject).serializationDataFormat(SerializationDataFormats.JSON).create());
* } finally {
* ProcessApplicationContext.clear();
* }
*
*
* Declaring the process application context allows the engine to access the Spin JSON data format
* as configured in that process application to serialize the object value. Without declaring the context,
* the global json data format is used.
*
*
Declaring the context process application affects only engine API invocations. It DOES NOT affect
* the context class loader for subsequent code.
