Re: [bpel-dev] Model extensibility

There is an extensionActivity construct just for that reason in BPEL2.0. It allows for embedding whatever activities you may want to define. I don't think we quite licked this here yet with respect to a nice editor integration.

An alternative approach is to define another activity type and follow what the BPEL editor has done for it's activities. Look at the extensionPoints plugin in the source tree (not part of any build) that has some clues to that.

Hello,

I would like to add a custom model element to the bpel model (and via paletteExtensionpoint to the bpel editor, too).
