Models between BPA and JDeveloper

Good morning.
I'm testing the generation of Blue Print with BPA and the reading of this Blue Print with the JDeveloper.
I can check that BPA generate Blue Print using EPC model and BPMN model. Well, I have made a "personalization" of the BPMN model, I mean, I have created a new model based on a BPMN model.
I transform the business process into BPEL using the SOA menu and BPA show me the message that the transform finished correctly (I can see the IT Process group at BPA). But when I try to see the new BPEL at JDeveloper creating a new BPEL Process Proyect with the Blue Print type, the JDeveloper don't find this new Blue Print.
Which models can be "understand" by JDeveloper? Are there any configuration file at JDeveloper where I can tell it that new models can be consider?
(Sorry for my english, it isn't very good)
Thanks in advance.

Hello Malhalma,
for the BPEL transformation the diagram types EPC and BPMN are valid. When you create a "new" diagram type based on the above mentioned once it appears that the required flags couldn't be set in the right way due to a missed recognition by the scripts creating the BPA BPEL.
If you do not have made to much changes within your personal diagram type I suggest to select all the objects in your source diagram and paste them in to a new EPC model just for generation purposes. Off course this is just a work around but till this problem is fixed by Oracle this could be helpful.

Dirk

The missing ring between Designer and JDeveloper.

I'm a user of both Designer and JDeveloper and I found a difficulty in making both updated at once.
I would like to have something wich can help to map Designer table definitions to ADF entities but I still don't see anything usefull.
I hoped the integration between Desigern and JDev could help me, but it's based upon Modules and not upot tables and then is useless.
I looked for Jheadstart but it seems to have similar problems.
Is there any plan to fill the gap ?
Is there any viable soluntion already done ?

BPA and JDeveloper integration

I have found:
"You need to use the same version for your bpa suite and your IDE, e.g. BPA 10.1.3.3 and Jdeveloper 10.1.3.X, and SOA Suite 10.1.3.x"
In that case I want to ask if it is possible to use BPA 10.1.3.3. with SOA Suite 11. Because it is noted that only SOA Suite 11 support bidirectional integration with BPA. And only BPA 10.1.3.3 is available.
Anyway I have a problem with BPA Suite 10.1.3.3. and SOA Suite 11 integration.
There are no options for creation "BPA Server Connection" in File-New dialog of Jdeveloper 11g.
Please help.

Hi,
there is a different forum for all 11g SOA Suite questions:
SOA Suite and OC4J 11g Technology Preview
But keep in mind:
when 11g SOA Suite is released there will be a BPA version 11g... but not earlier ;-)

What's the complete value of integrating BPA and BPEL?

Hi all.
When I look at the original ARIS platform, honestly I don't see a tangible value in automating the BPEL geneation. The amount of BPEL code automatically generated is only the "less painfull step", something that I can quickly create by hand directly in JDeveloper BPEL Modeler by simply looking at the published business process from ARIS. The amount of time spent recreating what is generated is not relevant for many processes, and you have the flexibility of creating activities with your own naming conventions.
Now, when I look to 10.1.3.3 Oracle BPA, with its new features of generating BPEL code direcly in JDeveloper, I still don't see a great value there. Again, if I have a business process just published somewhere, I can look at it and easily construct the BPEL process by myself.
Having said that, I guess that all this effort from Oracle in providing integration between BPA and JDev, with a "shared blueprint" model has much more bussiness/techinical value than just generating BPEL buinding blocks. This is really what I need to understand. What are the complete value for having all this integration?
Could be:
Reverse engineering?
Closed loop between products, facilitating change management?
Can you guys provide me a clear statement listing all the capabilities/benefits of this new features?
thanks
Denis

This unique value-generating approach of having the shared metadata - Process Blueprint between the modeling and execution environments enables both business and IT to work off a shared process definition.
Automatic translation of business requirements in to BPEL processes: Once business decides that a process blueprint is ready for sharing, IT can access and edit it from within their environment. Rich process definitions get generated from the Blueprint promoting rapid and meaningful process automation and reducing the strategy to implementation gap by translating the business requirements directly in to almost ready to deploy BPEL process definitions.
Alignment of business model and IT process: The executable process is always in lock step with the business process model. Business users can create and change business models in the Oracle Business Process Analysis Suite while IT users can view and modify these processes in parallel using the Process Designer component of the Oracle SOA Suite.
Empowerment of both Business and IT: The Blueprint also supports bi-directional synching enabling both business and IT to work on the same process at the same time. Business level changes can automatically be merged with any changes done by the developers to ensure that the implemented process is inline with the expectations of the business users. Further, IT can make changes to the blueprint that then become visible to business users as proposals for improvement.

Communicate large number of parameters and variables between Verstand and Labview Model

We have a dyno setup with a PXI-E chassis running Veristand 2014 and Inertia 2014. In order to enhance capabilities and timing of Veristand, I would like to use Labview models to perform tasks not possible by Veristand and Inertia. An example of this is to determine the maximum of a large number of thermocouples. Veristand has a compare funtion, but it compares only two values at a time. This makes for some lengthy and inflexible programming. Labview, on the other hand, has a function which aloows one to get the maximum of elements in an array in a single step. To use Labview I need to "send" the 50 or so thermocouples to the Labview model. In addition to the variables which need to be communicated between Veristand and Labview, I also need to present Labview with the threshold and confguration parameters. From the forums and user manuaIs understand that one has to use the connector pane in Labview and mapping in Veristand System Explorer to expose the inports and outports. The problem is that the Labview connector pane is limited to 27 I/O. How do I overcome that limitation?
BTW. I am fairly new to Labview and Versitand.
Thank you.
Richard
Solved!
Go to Solution.

@Jarrod:
Thank you for the help. I created a simple test model and now understand how I can use clusters for a large number of variables. Regarding the mapping process: Can one map a folder of user channels to a cluster (one-step mapping)? Alternatively, I understand one can import a mapping (text) file in System Explorer. Is this import partial or does it replace all the mapping? The reason I am asking is that, if it is partial, then I can have separate mapping files for different configurations and my final mapping can be a combination of imported mapping files.
@SteveK:
Thank you for the hint on using a Custom Device. I understand that the Custom Device will be much more powerful and can be more generic. The problem at this stage is that my limitations in programming in Labview is far gretater than Labview models' limitations in Veristand. I'll definitely consider the Custom Device route once I am more provicient with LabView. Hopefully I'll be able to re-use some of the VI's I created for the LabView models.
Thanks

JDeveloper Error: White spaces are required between publicId and systemId.

I'm using JDeveloper 10.1.3.1.0.
This error is occurring in a BPEL process project.
With one particular web service I have, adding a Partner Link to the BPEL generates the following compile error:
Error: White spaces are required between publicId and systemId.
I can add Partner links from other web services and the BPEL will compile fine. The main difference I can see is that this web service supports WS-Addressing.
I have found one other reference to a similar (but not exactly the same) problem elsewhere in these forums but the fix is not really applicable. All of the wsdl files pass the "Validate WSDL" operation, and I don't see anything wrong with them.
When the error occurs and I select "Go To Source" it points back to the first line of the bpel file.
Can anyone help me out on this?

I have discovered two issues.
1. JDeveloper does not seem to like the SOAP 1.2 envelope and encoding namespaces. Is this a known limitation? Changed them to 1.1.
2. JDeveloper does not like the double definition of wsaDemoResult.
When these two items are changed, the bpel compiles clean. Now I've got to get the message header to populate correctly. There are no values assigned, only namespace definitions. This is the SOAP packet that is received at the web service.

DM3.0 EA2: Filter engineering changes between logical and relational model

Hi,
when I am engineering changes between logial and relational model there are some issues at filter handling for me:
- When the filter "Show Modified Objects" is activated, the filter works only on the first level, e.g. on Entity level. On attribute level all attributes are displayed, not only the attributes which have really been modified. It is possible, to show on every level only the really modified objects?
- I think, selecting a Filter condition is circuitous. All filter conditions except "Show All Objects" keeps activated when I choose another condition. So I have to deactivate "Show Deleted Objects" when I want to see only the modified objects. It is possible to choose another control element for filtering, e.g. disjunctive radio buttons?
I am running Data Modeler on Windows XP with german localization and the JDK 1.6.0_11 from Oracle SQL Developer.

I logged bug for that.

Differences between 16GB and 32GB Models

Hi,
I'm looking at the differences between the 16GB and 32GB Xperia Z tablets (model numbers SGP311GB and SGP312GB) and apart from the differences in memory (obviously ) there doesn't appear to be anything else.
So, this begs the question what benefit does the internal memory have over an SD card - if I wanted 32GB I could buy the 16GB model and put a 16GB SD card in cheaper than the £50 difference between the two models.
or, have I missed something less obvious.
Thanks

1. The Main function of an SD Card is for media data such as photos videos, music etc.
2. The Tablet Z supports microSD, microSDHC and microSDXC up to 64GB.
The FAT32 format will restict the size of files you can move to card.

Hi all!
I don't know why i deploy application on oc4j included Jdeveloper when it's run ok but i deploy on Oc4j extented when it's run not ok.
I want to know the difficulty between oc4j included Jdeveloper and oc4j extended? How to config oc4j extented?

thank a lot!

The main difference is the version of OC4J. They do not often match. If the extended OC4J is a later version than the one packaged in JDeveloper, then applications developed in JDeveloper are not guaranteed to work in extended OC4J. It is always recommended
to develop and test against the OC4J in JDeveloper.
If you are using JDeveloper 10.1.2 make sure to use the right admin.jar (always point the path to the one in OC4J install ) in your OC4J connection.
In future release Oracle is trying to address such problems by allowing user to configure JDeveloper against a particular version of OC4J.

What are the difference between Model A1586 (GSM)* and Model A1524 (GSM)* as shown in the apple website?

Hi,
I would like to ask about some information on iPhone 6Plus
Can i know whats the difference on these two models between Model A1586 (GSM)* and Model A1524 (GSM)* as shown in the Malaysia apple website?
If its different, then the product which consumer wanted to select, will it be all the model same price in Malaysia?
Thank you.
Your sincerely,
Nick

"why should Apple manufacture the 2 models as different models?"
Apple doesn't manufacture two models with the same model number. The "1429" iPhone can utilze either the GSM or CDMA protocol, depending upon the carrier's system. In the US, Apple offers an unlocked "1428" iPhone 5, for use on GSM networks. I live in Bangkok, and Apple - and Premium Resellers - offer the "1429" iPhone, which can be used on either GSM or CDMA networks.

Difference between BPA, BPA, FD and RICEFW

Hi friends,
What is difference between BPA, BPA, FD, RICEFW, Business Blue Print and Configuration object. What are the sequence hey are prepared and who prepared and what are the challenge are faced during preparing these documents.
Thanks
Sunny

Here is the sequence and brief description -
BPP - Business Blue Print - Document showing overall design, processes and landscape of the business and this document is freezed and approved by client and project team
RICEFW - Reports, Interface, Conversion, Enhancement, Forms and Workflow are identified during workshops to fulfill design gaps and client requirements.
if BPA means BPD then it is Business Process Document which is a written procedure for each functional process...usually prepared by Business people and Functional consultants.
FD - Functional Documents or Functional specs is the guiding document for technical developer for any RICEFW requirement. These are written by Functional Consultants
Configurable object - these are idetified and configured by functional consultants to map business requirement in SAP.

Creating a logical data model in BPA 11g

Hi,
Can we create a logical data model in BPA 11g? If we can do that can it be moved over to the BPM environment seamlessly. I was under the impression that during the modelling exercise a business analyst would develop process models and logical data models in BPA & the turn it over to IT developers who will pull these models in and develop the implementation. Is that how it works?
Thanks.

You can create a logical datamodel in BPA suite. The sample applicaton has an example of that: the quote to cash datamodel. There are different types of datamodels that you can create (business objects, entities etc).
Examples of datamodels can be found in the sample: OBPA Release 11. quick start.
The datamodels can't be imported I think, the process models can. You can either import them into Oracle BPM Studio (as executable BPMN) or into Oracle SOA Suite (transforms it into BPEL) with JDeveloper.

Lonneke

Forms developer and jdeveloper

hi folks
what is the difference between forms developer and jdeveloper
if the both of them can deal with java and can deal with pl\sql ?
regards

You're looking at this from too high an altitude. After all, everything running on say a pc is just making machine language calls. It's the same machine language underneath the hood for everyone on that architecture. So from that perspective there can be no difference between any programming languages. But of course, that is not true from the developer nor the end user perspective.
There are many many angles on what makes one development environment good or bad and many competing perspectives. For example
flexibility. If the development environment extracts functionality into many separate pieces, it will be more flexible. A process can go from
a->b->g and bypass c,d,e,f so to speak. Whereas if a lot of functionality was glommed together one would be condemned to
a->b->c->d->e->f->g and getting it to perform outside that path might be extremely difficult or impossible. On the other hand,
if one really wanted the default path and that was sufficient for what one typically did, it would likely be a lot simpler to develop
that path in a tool that only did that path. With flexibility typically comes complexity. I think you're kinda looking at that with
say forms vs jdeveloper. If you need that mvvc or whatever it is model, the complexity of jdeveloper is the best choice but if you do not
want it and it just impedes you, then forms is your easiest and fastest environment for what I call DUIS :-) (data under form influences) aka (delete update insert select)

Difference between Function and Automated Activity

Hi All,
After struggling with a few BPA Suite/JDev compatibility issues over the past few days, we've finally got a basic setup up and running (JDev 11.1.1.1 worked - 11.1.1.2 did not).
I'm new to BPA and have 2 fairly basic questions - haven't found conclusive answers to these and hence, raising it on this forum...
1. What is the difference between a "Function" and an "Automated activity" in the BPA Suite? I had expected the latter to translate to a BPEL invoke but what appears to happen is:
- "Function" tranlsates to a BPEL Scope + Invoke.
- "Automated activity" translates to a BPEL Scope + Empty Task.
Based on this, I would not plan to use a "Function" for web service invocations but not sure where I would use the automated activities.
2. Is there a BPMN construct that would translate to a BPEL "Assign"? I understand that an Assign is fairly low-level and would normally be expected to be filled in by the BPEL developer (and not by the Business Analyst specifying the BPMN model) but it would be quite handy to be able to specify this in BPMN in some cases..
Thanks..
