Hi,

Note that the Activiti BPMN 2.0 Eclipse Designer is still an early access version.
We are working very hard to add some more interesting functionality, including a unit test for a process.
Currently you can design a process with the available pallette and right-click on the diagram and generate the BPMN 2.0 XML. Be aware that you have to refresh the project to see the generated file which has an extension of .model.
Currently you can't deploy or test this process file yet without you doing extra coding.
The creation of forms and variables is also not present yet, but a good suggestion for the beta and 1.0 release.

you have to add the groovy.jar to the project.

but i have another problem.

and add the lib to the projekt. i can' t find the "generate process runner class" in the context menü.

Hi,

Make sure you have the package explorer open and not the project explorer.
The "generate process runner class" currently only works when you are in the package explorer view.

Thanks for this information…

Another question:
i would like to deploy the taskformtest.java
my tomcat and h2 runs.
but i can't run the java class as java application, only run as junit.

what is the reason for this?
or is the code to deploy missing in this class?

thanks for helping me.

bye

You can have a main class and do this:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br>ProcessEngine processEngine = new ProcessEngineBuilder().configureFromPropertiesResource("activiti.properties").buildProcessEngine();<br>RepositoryService repositoryService = processEngine.getRepositoryService();<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br>DeploymentBuilder deployment = repositoryService.createDeployment();<br>deployment.addClasspathResource("xxxx.bpmn20.xml");<br>deployment.addClasspathResource("xxxx.form");<br>deployment.name(new Date());<br><br>deployment.deploy();<br>processEngine.close();

Note that if you want to deploy the process including forms and Java classes on a running Tomcat server, you'll have to create a bar file as described in the user guide. The designer will support the creation of a bar file in the next release. And we are currently looking at supporting the definition of forms also, but that's still in thoughts only.
