BPEL Designer plug-in / Adaptive workflow

Hi,
I have two questions:
1) Oracle plug-in doesn't work fine (you can't see Overview, Process Map, BPEL Palette, etc.) when you install Alphaworks BPWS4J plug-in before Oracle plug-in. Eclipse 3.0 opens the BPWS perspective for all BPEL projects. Is this a bug in the current version?
2) Does BPEL Process Manager 2.0 support dynamic change on-the-fly (in other words "adaptive workflow")? If yes, what features does it have? For example, can you change the order of activites while the process is running?
Many Thanks,
Kenan

Kenan,
I am afraid that the side-by-side versioning does not address the need of in-flight changes because there is not import feature for in-flight instances.
The side-by-side versioning is designed to let all existing in-flight instances to complete with the existing (unchanged) BPEL definition while new instances are routed to the newer version.
To deploy a new version of the BPEL project, us the -rev option if you are using the command line tool or the rev attribute is you are using the ant task.
Sorry for not being more helping. Dynamic changes is a feature we do not really support.

  • WSDL compatibility with BPEL Designer

    Hi,
    I created a web service via axis and generated the wsdl with axis. Using the BPEL designer to create a new process I now am able to invoke that web service by giving the wsdl file to the invoke dialoge.
    The result is, that the oracle parser is NOT able to read the axis generated wsdl file due to error like:
    Reference to undeclared namespace prefix: 'wsdlsoap'. Context: XXXXX
    Is there a was to drive the designer with axis generated wdsl docs?
    thanx, mirco

    Hi Kiran,
    Eclipse requires to detect new plugins.Usually you only need to launch Eclipse with the 'clean' optionnal parameter (run "eclipse.exe -clean").
    If the setup of the BPEL Designer plug-in have been completed properly, you should see the the 'Oracle BPEL Project' item under de 'New Project' wizard menu.
    Hope this could help.

  • BPEL Designer Extension Points?

    I'm wondering if there's any way to extend JDeveloper BPEL Designer? I know there's something for Eclipse - see for example http://eclipse.org/proposals/bpel-designer/main.html :
    "Extension Points The project should be architected as a set of plug-ins, each of which provides the ability for other groups or vendors to further extend and customize the functionality in a well-defined manner. Here is a list of possible extension points that it may provide:
    Runtime environment pairing (Validation, Compilation, Deployment)
    Addition of specific functions
    Extensions to BPEL palette definition
    BPEL element extensions and visual tool contributions"

    We are currently working on making the BPEL Designer extensible so as to allow for new activities, wizards, etc to be written by customers and partners. Is this what you are looking for? If so, this functionality is planned for 2006 and should apply to both thre Eclipse and JDev BPEL Designer plug-ins.
    Regarding source code, we are not planning to make source code available to the JDeveloper BPEL Designer plug-in, though we have proposed to open source our Eclipse BPEL Designer and co-lead that project with IBM (as you may have seen).
    If you are asking a different question than either of these, drop me an email or you also may want to post to the OTN BPEL forum:

  • Integration of custom identity services with JDeveloper BPEL designer

    Hi,
    I'd like to know if a custom user repository plugin will cause the 'Identity Lookup Dialog' (Step 6 of Human Workflow Wizard to generate a user task) to utilize the list of users and groups from a third party provider, when used as the Custom Identity Service provider.
    I'd like to have the custom list of users and groups at 'design time' of the BPEL process itself, as well as process runtime. Is this possible?
    This is with respect to both BPEL PM v10.2.0.2 and v 10.1.3.1.0.
    Regards,
    Vineet

    ok, thank you for the reply.
    But the installation of the Oracle BPEL Process Manger for Developers which includes the JDeveloper and the BPEL Designer doesn't come with 10.1.3.1.0?
    I have to install the JDeveloper and the BPEL Process Manager seperate?

    Hello, when I try to install the BPEL designer, I get a popup "Invalid Eclipse platform version", "The version of the Eclipse platform installed at C:\Java\eclipse must be at least 3.0 (release)". I have Eclipse 3.0.1. Thank you.

  • BPEL designer with JDeveloper

    I onle see the BPEL designer as the plug-in in Eclipse, how can it be used for JDeveloper plug in?
    Mark

    Mark,
    I will pass your contact information to the manager of the Jdev BPEL dev team and make sure that you get an offer to participate in the private beta program.
    Between now and then, you could download the 2.0.11 server and 0.96 build that we will push out tomorrow and start kicking the tires: the project source files are compatible between the JDev version and the Eclipse version.
    Best,

  • BPEL designer problem

    Hey guys,
    I am trying to download BPEL designer and it absolutely does not let me register my eclipse directory. The eclipse version I am using is 3.0.1, my eclipse dir is
    C:/eclipse and thats what I am entering when the BPEL designer installation asks me. But it keeps telling me that the eclipse version has to be more than 3.0
    Is there a trick to this I cant see? I have been trying diff. combinations but to no avail.
    Thanks in advance,
    Matt

    Sorry. This is a bug in the installer of BPEL designer 2.0.10. Please refer to BPEL plug-in not installing on eclipse 3.0.1 for more information. We are in the process of pushing out 0.9.6 which addresses this issue. -Edwin

  • BPEL Designer installation for eclipse

    Thanks

    that's too bad. I also have wasted some time looking for the eclipse plug in and would have preferred that approach. I've not had good experience with jDeveloper in the past, but even if those issues have been solved, eclipse is a good standard approach that oracle should support

  • Jdeveloper and bpel designer

    whats the lowest version of jdeveloper for using bpel designer ?
    i understand that jdev 10.1.3 will not have bpel designer for sometime .. does that mean - we need to retain jdev 10.1.2 for bpel designer 10.1.2 or is there a plugin for bpel 10.1.2 for jdev1 10.1.3 ?
    Thank you for your responce
    jasi

    BPEL PM has JDev plug-ins that correspond to the same release number for BPEL. So, with 10.1.2.0.0, a BPEL plug-in is available for the same JDev release. Likewise for 10.1.2.0.2.
    BPEL PM 10.1.3 will provide the first JDev 10.1.3 plug-in. That release is expected to have an Oracle internal preview build in the next week or two. Contact your Oracle representative if you want access to that. We expect a public Beta in the April timeframe.
    And if you wnat to see some of the new features that are coming, you may want to register for the "BPEL 10.1.3 Preview" feature preview webinar at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/bpel/htdocs/webinars.html.
    In the near-term, you will need to have both JDev 10.1.2 for BPEL development and 10.1.3 for Web services publishing and general development.
