JBPM4.4+JBoss 5.1 Doubts
by senthamil selvi
Hi,
I am new to JBPM 4.4. I have followed the userguide and have installed the
examples
http://docs.jboss.com/jbpm/v4/userguide/html_single/ and
http://docs.jboss.com/jbpm/v4/devguide/html_single/#jbossintegration
and have installed the JBPM 4.4.
But my requirement is to learn how to modify the already existing examples
or include my own example process file deploy it and understand how it works
in the Console.
http://localhost:8080/jbpm-console/app.html#errai_ToolSet_Processes;Proce...
For the above to be implemented I tried modifying the state choice Package
which included the process.jpdl. Build it to get the updated class file and
tried to generate a jar and bar file inside the target folder.
As per the developer’s guide I tried placing the jar file generated inside
the example/target folder and placed it in the server/deploy folder of the
Jboss server.
I restarted the server and HSQLdb and checked the console for the update I
made in the process flow diagram but it is not getting reflected.
The overall difficulty I find with understanding the execution of the
Process flow is that they are including some install scripts that is
extracted from the JBPM4.4 software version in the install folder and using
the ant command
Ant demo.setup.jboss->
It does the following activities:
[image: *] Install JBoss into the
*${jbpm.home}/jboss-5.0.0.GA<http://jboss-5.0.0.ga/>
* directory
[image: *] Install jBPM into that JBoss installation.
[image: *] Install hsqldb and start it in the background
[image: *] Create the DB Schema
[image: *] Start JBoss in the background.
[image: *] Create an examples. Bar business archive from the examples and
deploy it to the jBPM DB.
[image: *] Load the example users and groups from *
${jbpm.home}/install/src/demo/example.identities.sql*
[image: *] Install eclipse into *${jbpm.home}/eclipse*
[image: *] Install the jBPM web console
[image: *] Install the Signavio web modeler
[image: *] Start eclipse
So the deployment and the execution procedure is virtual. I would like to
know if I need create a new process definition and write a new java file how
should I create a process archive and how should I deploy the same and how
to monitor its output in the console with an example.
what are the steps involved to create a new process definition in the GPD
how to create bar or jar file for deployment.should i start the server and
HSQLdbmanager everytime i deploy?.
Please do help me on this.

Where to begin?
by Er.Vignesh
Hi Everyone,
I am interested in learning jBPM and from what I read about in the community and blogs, jBPM 5 looks like a best version to start with. The architecture has changed from previous versions and I am quite happy that we now primarily support a open-standard (BPMN 2.0). This enables customers who are tied up with expensive proprietary products to move to a well-known open-source BPM product easily.
However, I found that there is no significant mail exchanges in this mailing-list for the past 2-3 months. Will we be having a full-fledged, ground-breaking, (and jBoss supported), version any time this 2011? I will be very glad to see jBPM rocking on the BPM arena.
