Hi all,
We have had a lot of requests to simplify and improve the model extensibility aspect of the BPMN2 Modeler. I'm happy to announce that this effort is now complete and a "preview" version of 1.1.0 is now availble here.
Here are some of the highlights:
* The editor's model extension mechanism is now fully dynamic - it is no longer necessary to create an EMF model and generate java implementation classes.
* Extension Point elements can be defined in runtime configuration files.
* The <model> extension element is no longer required but can be used to specify a default model namespace URI
* The <customTask> and <modelExtension> elements now allow you to specify a namespace URI for the model extension attributes and elements.
* A "label" attribute has been added to the <property> element, which allows you to specify a more descriptive text label in the editor Property Sheets and dialogs.
* A new <dataType> extension element has been added which allows you to contribute custom data types and conversion delegates for converting to/from string type.
* The Extension Point API document has been flushed out with examples for some of the more complex features.
I'm still working on a more complete developer guide, so stay tuned
Bob

Hi Alan, and welcome to the forum
I'm working on the doc as I write this, so should have something before the end of the week. As always, comments/suggestions are welcomed.
Regarding the wid files: I was not aware that there was a requirement to search for these in the classpath. Do we also need the ability to search jars for these resources? Please create an enhancement request so we can track this.
Cheers,
Bob
