To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/793402#793402 -------------------------------------------------------------- there's some questions for me . In my project , i use the spring to manage the KnowledgeBase and the StatefulKnowledgeSession , and the config XML is follow . <drools:kbase id="kbase">               <drools:resources>                 <drools:resource type="BPMN2" source="classpath:Evaluation.bpmn" />                 <drools:resource type="BPMN2" source="classpath:WorkTrip.bpmn" />                 <drools:resource type="BPMN2" source="classpath:HR_WorkTrip.bpmn" />                 <drools:resource type="BPMN2" source="classpath:Common_WorkTrip.bpmn" />                 <drools:resource type="BPMN2" source="classpath:Performance.bpmn" />               </drools:resources>           </drools:kbase>           <drools:ksession id="sSession" type="stateful" kbase="kbase">     <drools:configuration>       <drools:jpa-persistence>         <drools:transaction-manager ref="txManager" />         <drools:entity-manager-factory           ref="entityManagerFactory" />       </drools:jpa-persistence>     </drools:configuration>             </drools:ksession> but when i need to add a new BPMN process resource , i need to add a drools:resource config and restart the web server to deploy it into the  KnowledgeBase which is used in my project . is there a JBPM API for me to deploy it into the KnowledgeBase without using the guvnor ? Like the way in JBPM4.x . in the JBPM demo , i know that the BPMN resource can be deployed by using this code : private static KnowledgeBase readKnowledgeBase() throws Exception {                     KnowledgeBuilder kbuilder = KnowledgeBuilderFactory                                         .newKnowledgeBuilder();                     kbuilder.add(ResourceFactory.newClassPathResource("Evaluation.bpmn"),                                         ResourceType.BPMN2);                     return kbuilder.newKnowledgeBase();           } but when i used the spring , i can't do this to deploy now . because if i use this way , the KnowledgeBase and the StatefulKnowledgeSession are the new instance different with the one in spring IOC . how can i do ? is there any way to do without using the guvnor web ? just using the JBPM API . -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/793402#793402] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
