Re: [jwt-dev] Semantic annotation of business process models

Hi Ahmed

I've added a new screenshot in step 3 that shows what you should have, at
http://wiki.eclipse.org/JWT_Metamodel_Extension#Setting_up_simple_.28key-value.29_additional_model_extensions

Hope it helps !

Regards,
Marc

Hi Marc,

Thank you very much for your reply. It worked for me and I was able to create my profile :) but I still can not reach the point where I can add my custom property. In step 3 in the link u sent me I am supposed to export my *_conf file to just a .conf file. To do that I should select the ManageProfile tab of the (workflow) model editor, and in the "Export profiles that are not among installed ones", choose a new target .conf file and click on the "Export" button. The problem is that in this tab there is no "Export profiles that are not among installed ones" button or something. is this documentation outdated or something ??
I really appreciate ur help until now and I would be extremely thankful if you can help me out all the way through. Thank you very much :)


best regards,
Samir

Hi Ahmed

It should rather open with the Conf Editor. Try this : close it, right
click on it and choose Open With, then "Conf Editor".

Marc

Dear Marc,

Thank you very much for the warm welcome and for the reply. I can not follow these steps. I have a workflow called "Process.workflow" and I also have the file "Process.workflow_conf". I double-click on it and it simply opens an editor with this :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ASCII"?>
<conf:ConfModel xmi:version="2.0" xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI"; xmlns:conf="org.eclipse.jwt.conf">
    <enrichedModel href="Process.workflow#/"/>
</conf:ConfModel>

I am then supposed to create my own custom Profile in it by right-click>   New Child>   Profile on the ConfModel root element but there's no place I right click and find  the option to do that.

What am I doing wrong ?? Please advice.

thank you very much.

best regards,
Samir

Hi Ahmed

First a warm welcome to the JWT community !

The simplest way to add custom information on a JWT process model is by
using custom properties, see here (read the previous parts also) :
http://wiki.eclipse.org/JWT_Metamodel_Extension#Setting_up_simple_.28key-value.29_additional_model_extensions
You can for example design a custom property "Semantic annotation" of
type String (actually containing semantic info, like OWL XML...) that
can be added to any element.

In addition, if you need to get it "out" of JWT, for instance to execute
it on a process engine, you then need to write or enrich a
transformation towards your chosen business process format.
JWT already has several transformations, as well as a stub project in
order to help creating your own, see in the svn here :
http://dev.eclipse.org/svnroot/soa/org.eclipse.jwt/trunk/transformations/
For instance if you want to have it as an XPDL business process that is
executable on the Bonita 4 engine, you can copy-paste the existing XPDL
transformation and add some XSL scripting that uses your semantic
annotations, for example to enrich said XPDL process.

Hope that gives you some ideas !

Best regards,
Marc

Dear all,

I am using JWT for my business process modelling and I am in a part of my bachelor thesis where I need to semantically annotate business process models with their resource requirements (the resources a process needs to be executed). Does anyone know what is the best way to do that ?? Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated =D

thanks a lot in advance,
Samir
