Hi Rob,
I forgot to mention, that if your set of set of custom stencils is rather static, you may
also skip the all dynamic generation I talked about and just create a stencilset extension
manually (or even modify the jBPM stencilset).
Maybe have a look at the existing
http://code.google.com/p/oryx-editor/source/browse/trunk#trunk/editor/dat... and
http://code.google.com/p/oryx-editor/source/browse/trunk#trunk/editor/dat...,
which are defined through simple JSON files in combination with SVG and PNG files for the
graphical representation. In fact, the
http://code.google.com/p/oryx-editor/source/browse/trunk/editor/data/sten...
is also just an extension to the
http://code.google.com/p/oryx-editor/source/browse/trunk/editor/data/sten...
of Oryx.
The key idea, which will make the jPDL export work for your custom stencils, is to set
their 'superId' property to one of the existing elements in the jBPM stencilset,
e.g., 'java' for the Java activity.
The following pages of the Oryx wiki may also be of help for understanding the
concepts:http://code.google.com/p/oryx-editor/wiki/HowToCreateStencilSet
