Hello,
I start start working with the current BPMN 2.0 Diagram Editor in eclipse juno SR1. Befor I worked with the drools/jbpm editor. So I imported some bpmn2 files from it. Then I try to modify a service task. But I cannot modify the method of an service task or change the class. So I try to start from scratch. But it doesn't work. Do I have to import the relevant java class? I try it, but I have some problems. So can anybody tell me how I can add a Java method to the service task or were can I find the necessary information/documentation?
Thanks a lot.
Tom

Hmm...this should work. Is it possible for you to post the bpmn file here?

Of course. It is a very simple example. I describe my steps to create the workflow.
- Create a new BPMN2 Diagram
- Select Diagram Type: Process
- Add ServiceTask between StartEvent and EndEvent
- Klick on the ServiceTask
- Open Properties View for Service Task

Then I am only able to select a available operation from a combobox. But the combobox is empty.
Perhaps I have a inconsistent installation. I try to install BPMN2.0 Model Editor first ( http://hudson.eclipse.org/hudson/job/bpmn2-nightly/ws/org.eclipse.bpmn2.site/target/site) but it does not work. So I searched the internet and found a solution for this problem. I have to install the Eclipse BPMN 2.0 Plug-in ( http://download.eclipse.org/bpmn2-modeler/site/) first. After I install Eclipse BPMN 2.0 Plug-in I have no problems to install also the Editor.

Annother input. I also try the war file for tomcat. With the web solution I can create a ServiceTask with the referenced Class and operation. I export the file and try to open it via the eclipse plugin. It works. But I get a null pointer exception if I try to open the Properties -> Interfaces -> OperationList -> DoubleClick on the operation.

Ahm: Please give me an email - adresse because I am not allowed to add attachements to the topics. Sorry

Thanks Tom

Hi Tom,

Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for testing the editor; it looks like this is a bug in the Service Task property sheets. Can you please file a bugzilla report here:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=BPMN2Modeler
and we'll address this in the next service release.
