The processdefinition and its contents is saved in various tables (eg. JBPM_PROCESSDEFINITION, JBPM_NODE, JBPM_TRANSITION,...) The content of the processdefinition.xml file itself is stored (along with other process related information such as process image, class files etc.) in the JBPM_BYTEBLOCK table. Taking a look at the db schema, the relation from the xml data to the processdefinition can be followed by the following path: JBPM_BYTEBLOCK JBPM_BYTEARRAY JBPM_PROCESSDEFINITION | -------------- -------------- ---------------------- | PROCESSFILE_ ==> ID_ | BYTES_ NAME_ | INDEX_ FILEDEFINITION_ ==> ID_ | (other fields...) | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4075122#...
