Re: [bpel-dev] Re: question about Eclipse BPEL status

[sam wang <samwzm@xxxxxxxxx>]

That's great! thank you very much for the help from both Michal and Jonathan!

by the way, Jonathan, could you please describe the process of repackaging the editor in an RCP
application? As suggested by Michal, satisfying the dependence is the most important thing, such
as  WSDL, XSD, EMF. Is there any other packages? I know how to make a SWT stand alone application,
does making Eclipse BPEL stand alone application have the same procedure with making SWT
application or not?

thanks again and have a good weekend,
Sammy
