[stp-dev] Intermediate Model Code Contribution

[Andrea Zoppello <andrea.zoppello@xxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I want just to inform you, that i put in stp svn repository some plugin 
projects regarding
eclipse stp intermediate model.

Here the list of released plugins, with a brief description:



- org.eclipse.stp.im
 The intermediate model project EMF stuff

- org.eclipse.stp.im.edit
 Generated by EMF

- org.eclipse.stp.im.editor
 The emf editor for im files generated by EMF

- org.eclipse.stp.im.tests
  EMF Generated stuff

- org.eclipse.stp.im.in.bpmn
 This plugin realize the transformation BPM->IM ( The transformation is 
implemented in Java using relying on api from emf bpmn and im model )

- org.eclipse.stp.im.resources

  Define a common repository where define resources that could be 
needed by Intermediate Model
  and provide extension point for exporting resources, and importing 
resources into this respoistory.
 
   At the moment this plugin provide the dialog to manage datasource 
type resource.
 
  For example, plugins provided by Spagic, will provide exporter and 
importers of resources for servicemix ( spagic )
 

- org.eclipse.stp.im.runtime

 Define the concept of  Intermediate Model Runtime:  A runtime define a 
set of services/service bindings that then we could
 drag and drop on bpmn diagram files.

 Provide some utility classes so it's possible to define static 
runtimes, based on xml configuration files.
 For example the predefined set of services offered by ESB could be 
defined in an xml file.

 Another exmaple of runtime, could be the set of activities offered by 
BPEL engine.

 BTW it's important to say that xml is only a way to define runtimes, 
but it's not the unique way, basically
 to define a new runtime you need only to write a plugin that use the 
extension point defined in this plugin and provide
 a class that implements the IRuntime interface.

 An example of runtime is provided by 
"org.eclipse.stp.im.runtime.jbi.smx" plugin

- org.eclipse.stp.im.runtime.jbi.smx

  Define the set of service/servicebindings offered by servicemix, 
using the xml configuration file.


- org.eclipse.stp.im.tool.in.bpmneditor

  Extension to the BPMN editor:

   - Provided Technology Section in properties view, this section is 
used to choose a particular runtime for BPMN Pool.

   - Intermediate Model View
    
     When you choose a runtime for a Pool the set of service service 
bindings provided by this, are showed in this view and you could do drag 
and drop on bpmn
     elements

  - Provided Intermediate Model Section:

     Once you drag and drop a Service/ServiceBinding on a BPMN element, 
this will create an annotation on BPMN Element containing the properties 
this
     service/servicebing need to work, in this section you're able to 
edit the properties defined by a particular service/servicebinding 
annotation

Obviously any comment is welcome.
