To be honest, I think "Translation Designers" etc are possibly further up the functional stack from where JBoss ESB is currently aiming (Mark???). Something of that nature would be a great usability feature for JBoss ESB. | Yes, I think you're right. At the moment we're really looking at the lower level in terms of implementation. However, that shouldn't stop us talking about anything, in case it does need to be considered earlier in the architecture. anonymous wrote : | I would be interested in seeing more detail on your ideas in this area. In terms of developing tools/wizards for configuring/building-on an ESB Transformation Service, I think the devil will be in the detail!! That said, I think there's a lot that could be done with wizards/designers etc to make the easy things easy, allowing you to concentrate more on the nasty parts of transformation. This would be a major learning process for me anyway - how to develop a designer/wizard that is successful in making the Transformation Service easier to use, without getting in the way when the going gets tough!! Sounds like a good approach to me. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3961046#...
