Will the bpel designer initial contribution be based on the Collaxa code? [message #696]

Hi Edwin,
Congratulations!
I am assuming that the initial contribution will come from the code acquired
by Oracle from Collaxa. ;-)
Is that correct?
Also, when could the initial contribution be made available for download to
check-it out?
What is the timeline for project approval?
Cordially
Philippe

Thanks Philippe (sorry for the delay).

The initial contribution is still an open question: we have an eclipse
implementation today (which is indeed based on the Collaxa code base) but
that contribution is built in DHTML/Ajax. At this point, the thinking is
to carry forward the knowledge and some of the design elements but
re-implement a more native eclipse solution. By native, we mean
implemented in Java and taking advantage of EMF and other graphical
frameworks available in Eclipse. (Note: if you want to look at what the
latest designer implementation looks like, you can download the eclipse
plugin from the http://otn.oracle.com/bpel site, given that is implemented
in DHTML, all the code is there!)

From a timeline perspective, the eclipse process has a 1-month review
process before making a decision. The goal during that month is to build a
community around the project and this is what we are actively doing.

Best,
Edwin

Edwin,
Thanks for your reply.
Just my 2 cents: if you have a working contribution as a starting point,
even if you may want to re-implement it as a native Java/SWT application, I
would be a strong advocate of starting with that.
Projects that start with a clean slate have a hard time to create a
community following!
And a plug-in with a DHTML UI would be quite interesting in itself too.

Thanks for the insight: we are actively working on building the community.
I will make sure that the option of us contributing the DHTML source as
input is tabled during our discussions (and will keep you posted). -Edwin

Hi, Edwin,
there is no download in your link whatsoever.
Could it b possible to update the link for DHTML/AJAX Designer
implementation download?

Another question is what is the rationale for such strange decision to move
from AJAX/DHTML Designer to EMF? Might be I do not understand something but
for me is more natural to have web-based solutions vs. desktop ones.

According to the 11/15 to 11/27 F2F Eclipse BPEL-Designer executive
summary minutes, there is a "...desire to use IBM's editor, model, and
validator codebase...".

Is there a time frame when the IBM code base will be made available?

It's available now.

Check my posting from 11/29/2005 entitled "Initial code release" in this
newsgroup.

I don't know what you're asking. Rich asked when the code will be
available on Eclipse.org, and I told him that it already is (and has
been since Nov. 29th).
