This is a very interesting discussion guys! I like the svg approach of rendering the
image, it is a lot cleaner than saving the image with the process. What about the
performance though? Do you perform this xslt transformation to svg on the fly each time
before rendering? Doesn't that take a lot of time?
As for the 'g' attribute, this looks like it does because it has always been our
focus to keep the jpdl xml concise and readable. As you might know the graphical info even
used to be in another file in jBPM 3, with other drawbacks. Even if it would be advisable,
it would be very difficult to split the 'g' attribute at this time because of
backward compatibility issues and complications with the tools. We will be moving towards
BPMN2 anyway for the next generation of jBPM (jBPM 5) and that standard is focused on
diagrams and interchange of them.
In the meantime, feel free to continue to suggest and contribute jBPM 4 improvements.
Cheers,
Koen
