Hi guys,
This mail is a summary of the mail thread about STP modeler.
Based eclipse Ganymede-SR1, we can install STP modeler by update site.
The STP modeler now has two version: 1.0.1 for Ganymede SR1 and 2.0.0M3
from committer build. (http://download.eclipse.org/stp/downloads/)
There are some differences between 1.0.1 and 2.0.0M3. One of these
differences bring about the issue JBIDE3364.
The difference is about sequence edges in a sample *.bpmn file:
In 1.0.1 version
<sequenceEdges xmi:type="bpmn:SequenceEdge"
xmi:id="_UAo2UcTuEd2TWonbw8O5Jg" iD="_UAo2UMTuEd2TWonbw8O5Jg"
source="_R362UcTuEd2TWonbw8O5Jg" target="_Tny4gcTuEd2TWonbw8O5Jg"/>
In 2.0.0M3 version
<sequenceEdges xmi:type="bpmn:SequenceEdge"
xmi:id="_UAo2UcTuEd2TWonbw8O5Jg" iD="_UAo2UMTuEd2TWonbw8O5Jg"/>
In 2.0.0M3 version, the sequenceEdges node has not source and target
attributes. So the issue JBIDE3364 occurs.
So I want to know if we should support 2.0.0M3 in jboss tools 3.0? or
support 2.0.0M3 in jboss tools later vertion?

Aha, yes. I download the Ganymede-sr1 again. It does not include STP
modeler. Maybe my ganymede is not clear
base. So I test again on Ganymede-sr1 and update to 1.0(Ganymede) and to
1.0.1(Ganymede SR1). The JBIDE-3364 does not
occur. Only when update to stp.archivedsite-2.0.0.M3. The JBIDE-3364
occurs.
For this, should I support stp.archivedsite-2.0.0.M3? (it is a committer
build)
