| [bpmn2-modeler-dev] Status for Aug 24, 2012 |
Hi all, It's been another busy week! The BPMN2 model validation and problem reporting feature is nearly complete. The editor now reports many semantic problems, such as nodes that have no incoming/outgoing sequence flows, invalid IDs, etc. The offending activity on the drawing canvas, as well as property sheet attribute labels are decorated with an error marker and tooltip error message. Still left to do is to add a builder and project nature for BPMN2 so that validation is performed as part of an incremental project build. The jBPM runtime extension plugin includes most of the same problem checking that is done by the Web Designer [3]. This week's builds (here [1] and here [2]) also include some minor bug fixes. On the to-do list for next week: * Add project nature and builder for validation. * Begin working on a process tracing and debugging interface to support a typical BPMN2 execution engine, something along the lines of this thing here: [4] [1] http://download.eclipse.org/bpmn2-modeler/site/ [2] http://download.eclipse.org/bpmn2-modeler/site-helios/ [3] http://www.jboss.org/jbpm/components/designer [4] https://github.com/droolsjbpm/droolsjbpm-knowledge/blob/master/knowledge-api/src/main/java/org/drools/event/process/ProcessEventListener.java "Made from the best stuff on Earth." ________________________ Robert ("Bob") Brodt Senior Software Engineer JBoss by Red Hat
