Re: AW: [jwt-dev] JWT2XPDL transformation

Hi Florian, Miguel

Florian :
Guillaume is on holidays till next week. If you could provide your example, we'd have a look at it. Anyway, at Open Wide we have to also commit our tests, and typicaly nicely make them fit in jwt-samples !

Miguel :
I agree with you on specifying engine specific features in an explicit manner. As Florian said, we're thinking about it but haven't extended the JWT metamodel yet. Florian, I bet you've talked about that with other member at Eclipse Con ? ;) However for now we've done it implicitly so it already works "as is" (we didn't think about putting it in comments). It obviously will have to be patched. We're going to work on databinding features in the following months (till june), so it will be a good time to do a general upgrade of the JWT metamodel.

Miguel, if you think it should be done earlier, let me know.

Regards
Marc

Hi,
when I test the JWT2XPDL transformation, an empty XPDL file is generated and I get on the console the following messages:
Compiler warnings:

line 103: Attribute 'name' outside of element.

ERROR: 'The first argument to the non-static Java function 'declareName' is not a valid object reference.'

FATAL ERROR: 'Could not compile stylesheet'

Do you know, Guillaume, what I make wrong? I tried it first with very complex models and in the end with a model having one InitialNode, one action and one FinalNode and that's it :-) So I guess that one should probably work. Concerning the hooks: is there a special element that we shall include into the metamodel? We are currently discussing of including a generic "Property" element into the metamodel so that all kind of additional information could be modeled which are not possible right now - would this help? Another way right now would be to use the comment function that can be attached to each model element (To an action, an activity, etc.). But right now, this is only visible and editable in the outline view and not in the graphical editor itself.
Best regards,
Florian

Hi,

First of all congratulations for the last JWT release and the JWT2XPDL transformation. We, at Bonita team, will definitely give it a try (as discussed with Marc last week)!

Just one comment on your last post (Guillaume):

Hooks in Bonita are just java classes so I think that identify them at the JWT editor only by their package name (default is hero.hook but could be different) is not a good idea IMO. For hooks, mappers, performers… any other advanced features provided as an external attribute in XPDL we should add additional data to the model rather than use name conventions, what do you think ?

Regards,

Miguel Valdes

If a JWT application is a hook (Java class "hero.hook.*"), it is

translated into a Bonita Hook. But the event is always afterTerminate,

the next version should manage other events.
