Esteban, please explain if a process cannot be updated (and one has to deploy a new process with a different id whenever he/she changes the process definition), then what does the second part of the http://downloads.jboss.com/drools/docs/5.1.1.34858.FINAL/drools-flow/html... mean? Quoting the doc: "By default, Drools Flow uses the proceed approach, meaning that multiple versions of the same process can be deployed, but existing process instances will simply continue executing based on the process definition that was used when starting the process instance." But if the id is different then, these are different processes and Drools Flow simply doesn't know that they are same processes under different names. So, the "proceed" behavior is met trivially - there is not even possible for 2 different versions of the same process to exist at the same time? Do I understand correctly that for Drools Flow 2 processes are the same when it they have the same id? So, basically, if I use Guvnor and someone uploads a new version of the process and compiles it, then my application automatically picks up the updated version even for currently running processes (stopped at asynchronous step) is that correct? And if I want existing processes to continue then I need to use a different id for update process (and hence re-configure the whole app to start processes based on new id) which kind of a kills all the Guvnor idea. It seems like I am not understanding something. I would be very thankful, if someone could explain to me, what I am getting wrong.
