2. Re: BPEL Descriptor Question
aguizar Jun 1, 2006 7:17 PM (in response to ncapito)BPEL process definitions rely on WSDL abstract definitions (messages and port types) only. Just as in EJB development, the involved parties agree on a service interface; each party gets a copy of the interface documents and starts working separately on getting their side working.
Pointing to a deployed document from bpel-definition.xml is possible, but inconvenient for the very reason you mention. A better practice is downloading the document and removing the binding and service elements.
In the case of bpel-application.xml, you need a registry (such as a UDDI server) to shield you from changes in the partner endpoint addresses. That's in our roadmap but not available yet. -
