[jbpm-dev] GPD integration

[Thomas Diesler]

Hi Koen,

in Antwerp we talked about the GPD not having a direct dependency on the 
jBPM4 code base but rather on the API that exposes the concepts that 
jBPM4 should implement. By providing support for the jBPM3 threading 
model the basic concepts that we talked about are applicable to the 
jBPM3 code base as well.

If the API is the integration point for the GPD (btw this argument holds 
true for the GWT Console as well) it should be possible to implement a 
single GPD code base that works across jBPM versions. The API would 
become the common base were all integration concerns would come 
together. In this light the term SPI is probably even more applicable.

Thoughts?

cheers
