[rules-users] Compatability between Eclipse jBPM5 5.5 Editor and Designer 2.4?

I had implemented a process in Designer 2.4 (thru Guvnor), using the Workflow pattern "Arbitrary Cycle" that is provided out of the box with the designer. Basically just created a new process within Designer, then placed the Arbitrary Cycle pattern into the process, and saved it - without making any changes to it. I was able import it into Eclipse (Kepler) and bring it up from within Eclipse with no issues. Because the out of the box Arbitrary Cycle pattern had validation errors, I went back into Designer to fix all the validation errors and modify the tasks, which included: - made all the tasks script tasks - Changed all of the paths out of the XOR gateways to have a "50%" probability - added a start and end event - added a flow out of task E to the end event - added a flow out of G to the end event - created a png of the process I then selected the validate process button, and everything validated fine. Switching back to Eclipse, I imported the process using the File -> New -> Resources From Guvnor. When I then tried to bring the process up in Eclipse, I got the following popup error: An exception occurred while reading the Ruleflow XML: this type of node cannot have more than one incoming connection! In the Eclipse log for the worspace, it had the following exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: This type of node cannot have more than one incoming connection! at org.jbpm.workflow.core.node.EndNode.validateAddIncomingConnection(EndNode.java:59) at org.jbpm.workflow.core.impl.NodeImpl.addIncomingConnection(NodeImpl.java:100) at org.jbpm.workflow.core.impl.ConnectionImpl.connect(ConnectionImpl.java:76) at org.jbpm.workflow.core.impl.ConnectionImpl.<init>(ConnectionImpl.java:71) at org.jbpm.bpmn2.xml.ProcessHandler.linkConnections(ProcessHandler.java:293) at org.jbpm.bpmn2.xml.ProcessHandler.end(ProcessHandler.java:145) at org.drools.xml.ExtensibleXmlParser.endElement(ExtensibleXmlParser.java:422) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.parsers.AbstractSAXParser.endElement(Unknown Source) ... Given this, it seems to me that the designer is creating processes that the Eclipse editor is unable to parse/render. Is this expected behavior - i.e. is the designer a superset of the Eclipse editor capabilities? If so, what capabilities are in Designer that aren't supported in the Eclipse editor - if such a list exists? I just don't want to spend much time implementing in the Designer if I never know what will/won't import to Eclipse.
