Re: [bpmn2-modeler-dev] ways to link bpmn files ?

[Cristiano Gavião <cvgaviao@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Bob,

I've been playing a bit with 1.0.1. pretty cool the way Call Activity is opening the inner diagram. reaaly liked :)

seems that JBPM 5 don't support a lot of things... I'll investigate more asap about the support of Call Activity plus import bpmn2 with JBPM 6 engine.

btw, I could note that this version don't install in luna due to graphiti's newer version. have you already planned to create a build job for luna?

cheers,

Cristiano

No you don't need to uninstall anything. Just set the Target Runtime to "None" in your project properties.

BTW, the 1.0.1 version of the editor (the one you currently have installed, I presume?) has online documentation linked to context help. Use F1 or "Help->Help Contents" and browse through the BPMN2 Modeler topic.

Well, I've installed everything from the p2 repository...

I've created a java project and only created Generic BPMN2 diagram...

So, I think I didn't understand a thing...

I need to uninstall the jBPM Target Runtime extension to be able to import a diagram from workspace...

and if I do that I can't use that diagram that I'm import other with JBPM ?

cheers,

Cristiano

Hey Cristiano,

It looks like you're using the jBPM Target Runtime extension, correct? That would be the reason why you can only import Java types - jBPM doesn't support anything else, sorry :(

Cheers,

Bob

Hi Bob,

many thanks for pointing the right way... it seems to be awesome !
but I couldn't find the dialog that you have used for external files.

When I click on the Imports list of the "Definitions" property tab of the canvas Property sheet, I get only java type based Imports..

take a look on the screen shot, please...

Hi Cristiano,

The double click gesture is used to display an element's property sheet. To open the contained process, use the "Show Diagram" context menu action, like so:

FYI, you can also reference an external process (a different bpmn file) from the Call Activity like this:

From the "Definitions" property tab of the canvas Property sheet, click "+" on the "Import List" table and select the process file from the "Import Dialog" as shown here:

The imported process will then show up in the Called Activity combo box:

Now when you click the "Show Diagram" context menu button, it will open a new editor for the referenced process file.

Hello,

I could note that there is a way you can move an entire sub-process into a new diagram inside the same model file.
I could note that BPMN2 changed the way reusable sub-processes is constructed. Now there is a CallActivity that should be used to reuse a sub-process.

is there a way to open the inner subprocess diagram double clicking the CallActivity ? 

thanks,

Cristiano
