Tom Baeyens commented on JBPM-830:
----------------------------------

good idea.   i mainly would be interested to know how you could enhance the current scripting support to BSF without braking backwards compatibility.

if this could be done with adding a language attribute to the script tag that has the default value of 'bsh', I'm all ears :-)

if you have or plan something like this, definitely mention it on the dev forums.

> I'm planning to implement support for BSF and will contribute it back if it's wanted.
> (BSF supports pluggable scripting engines and pluggable domain classes.)
> I'm posting this here, rather than on the forum, to make sure we don't end up with duplicate efforts.
> If this was the wrong thing to do, apologies in advance.
> My current plans are to just provide a way to configure a global scripting engine via jbpm.cfg.xml.  In the future, it would be desirable to make this settable in the Process Definition.
> I'll make sure this works with BeanShell and Groovy - other folks will have to vet Rhino, etc.
> Current estimate is "before end of February".
> Any thoughts?  Requests?  Is this useful to others?  I haven't seen much about it on the forums.
