I'm attempting to use MDT BPMN2 Eclipse to programmatically create a BMPN2 model and serialize it to xml, but I get unexpected output like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ASCII"?>
<MODEL:definitions xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:DC="http://www.omg.org/spec/DD/20100524/DC" xmlns:DI="http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/DI" xmlns:DI_1="http://www.omg.org/spec/DD/20100524/DI" xmlns:MODEL="http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/MODEL" xmlns:bpmn2="http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/MODEL-XMI" xmlns:bpmndi="http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/DI-XMI" targetNamespace="_test">

      </DI_1:DiagramElement>
    </DI:BPMNPlane>
  </DI:BPMNDiagram>
</MODEL:definitions>


Where I would expect:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ASCII"?>

Any idea on how to get rid of the xsi:type stuff?

Colin,

I know nothing about BPMN2's definition but perhaps there are feature
maps and substitution groups involved. What leads you to expect
<MODEL:process id="_model"> rather than <MODEL:rootElement
xsi:type="bpmn2:tProcess" id="_model"> . Is there an element named
process of type "tProcess" that's in rootElement's substitution group?
If so, this XMLResource save option might help produce what you're
looking for

/**
* This option is used to specify an {@link ElementHandler} for
deducing the feature used to serialize a specific type of value.
* @see ElementHandler
* @since 2.4
*/
String OPTION_ELEMENT_HANDLER = "ELEMENT_HANDLER";

Otherwise, some PBMN2 expert will need to comment.

Hello Colin,

using your example with our current HEAD from git.eclipse.org/gitroot/bpmn2, I get the following result, which is still not valid (because the namespace prefixes are bound to the XMI namespaces instead of the XML namespaces), but a little closer to what you expected - what version are you using?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<bpmn2:definitions
    xmlns="_test" xmlns:bpmn2="http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/MODEL-XMI" xmlns:bpmndi="http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/DI-XMI"
    xmlns:dc="http://www.omg.org/spec/DD/20100524/DC-XMI" id="_Y2bvYVw0EeCw0pdrns_3qg"
    targetNamespace="_test">
  <bpmn2:process id="_model">
    <bpmn2:startEvent id="_start"/>
  </bpmn2:process>
  <bpmndi:BPMNDiagram id="_Y2bvYlw0EeCw0pdrns_3qg" name="Test Diagram">
    <bpmndi:BPMNPlane id="_Y2bvY1w0EeCw0pdrns_3qg">
      <bpmndi:BPMNShape id="_Y2bvZFw0EeCw0pdrns_3qg" bpmnElement="_start">
        <dc:Bounds height="20.0" width="20.0" x="20.0" y="20.0"/>
      </bpmndi:BPMNShape>
    </bpmndi:BPMNPlane>
  </bpmndi:BPMNDiagram>
</bpmn2:definitions>


The incorrect namespaces are due to a bug in the Bpmn2XMLProcessor (soon to be fixed). If you instead use resource.save(...), you should get the following valid output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<bpmn2:definitions xmlns="_test" xmlns:bpmn2="http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/MODEL" xmlns:bpmndi="http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/DI" xmlns:dc="http://www.omg.org/spec/DD/20100524/DC" id="_7qY2gVw0EeC3ct8EY-Z0pA" targetNamespace="_test">
  <bpmn2:process id="_model">
    <bpmn2:startEvent id="_start"/>
  </bpmn2:process>
  <bpmndi:BPMNDiagram id="_7qY2glw0EeC3ct8EY-Z0pA" name="Test Diagram">
    <bpmndi:BPMNPlane id="_7qY2g1w0EeC3ct8EY-Z0pA">
      <bpmndi:BPMNShape id="_7qY2hFw0EeC3ct8EY-Z0pA" bpmnElement="_start">
        <dc:Bounds height="20.0" width="20.0" x="20.0" y="20.0"/>
      </bpmndi:BPMNShape>
    </bpmndi:BPMNPlane>
  </bpmndi:BPMNDiagram>
</bpmn2:definitions>


Hope that helps,
Henning

PS: Bpmn2XMLProcessor should be fixed with http://git.eclipse.org/c/bpmn2/commit/?id=e722dc115b026e4621 41e20eed2613b8fa75be7b - thanks for reporting this!

Thanks, Henning,

I was indeed using an out of date version of the source. Resource.save() did the trick!

Sorry for the noise,
Colin

Hi,
