Arun V G [https://community.jboss.org/people/arunvg] created the discussion "Adding new workitems without repacking the application ?" To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/717125#717125 -------------------------------------------------------------- I am working with creating domain specific processes and followed the example * Created  work definition in the MVEL format * Register the workdefinition in the drools.rulebase.conf * Creating the work item handler * Registering the workitem hanlder. And it worked effectively. Our requirment is to create new work definitions using an editor and save the attribtes of a work definition in a Database so that in future it can be edited or extended So my questions are * Can I create a Work definition in any other format other than the MVEL .( I don't want to be a polyglot :) ) * Can I register the Work item to the processing engine programatically rather than having the drools.rulebase.conf  file in the class path. I am not very concerned about the eclipse/web editor as we have plans to develop it in house and we are evaluating jBPM for the processing part. Any hints would be highly appreciated Cheers :) -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/717125#717125] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
