[jbpm-dev] [Design of JBoss jBPM] - Re: process definition as a resource

It sounds reasonable to me. anonymous wrote : | if a user deploys a new version of a process... | we'd need to be more precise here. I can actually see three use cases: 1) a changed pdl file, but classes remain the same 2) same pdl, but classes changed 3) changed pdl and classes changed IMO 1) and 3) should lead to a new version of that process, i.e. demanding an explicit version increment in the pdl, whereas 2) simply associated a different resource set to with process (i think bernd called it patching/bug fixes) In general all those cases where the pdl is changed, we can encounter two situations: the user explicitly changed the version within the pdl or he didn't. IMO the later case indicates "replacement" of a process definition. View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4210626#...
