Jon, A lot of times we don't want the entire JBoss Tools, but just the plugins that we intend to use. In particular doing soa development work I have no interest in or use for seam, rich faces, jbossas tooling. So until there is a version of JBoss Tools targeted at the SOA developer, I would prefer to add the plugins I require. Grid mentioned a common zip, but the one he passed me was old. I don't see a tools common zip on the download page. How would I find this?

If you don't see a "BPMN" category under Export, then it is likely due to missing dependencies. I would suggest the latest Eclipse Gaynmede J2EE package and latest JBT CR1 build to ensure everything is in place. -- John On Fri, 2008-12-05 at 13:27 +0800, feng.qian wrote: > Hi Jeffrey, > > I have tested your zip file.
