I want to enter the next batch after ejecting all items

I want to enter the next batch after ejecting all the items being processed by the processor.

I have set current.subnodes.length == 0 to the condition, but it doesn't work.

What's wrong?

How can I fix it?

The content of a processor is still 1 when a last item leaves.

Test it on your own on exit

print(current.subnodes.length);

Changed to "current.subnodes.length == 1" so that one content can be port-opened.

But after 214 seconds the simulation freezes.

What's wrong?

anonymous user, EDIT: I have looked into your model, and it behaves absolutly strange. It processes 2 batches. First batch released with a max wait timer, second batch with a max wait timer and then the model stopps unexpectingly.

It doesn't matter wether you check a content of the processor to open the input nor if you check a label of an item.

next approach: On End Collecting trigger I assign a label at the last item of current batch. The batch is transferred directly to the processor or to a bypass queue. The label is responsible for closing and opening the input of the processor.
