some jBPM questions...

[rodrigo-carvalho]

Hi, I'm trying to develop an application using jBPM and I got some questions...

- How can I do a database connection with jBPM ?
- Where can I found some samples of jBPM aplications ?
- How can I create my application's Interface(pages) using jBPM ?
- Should I use JPDL or BPEL ? Why ?

I appreciate r attention !

- Do you mean a database connection to another database, or to the Jbpm database. If you mean another database, then you would do it like you would any java application. Use Jdbc or something of the sorts, and write your own code to do it. If you mean to the Jbpm database, then read the documentation: http://docs.jboss.com/jbpm/v3.2/userguide/html/index.html and the getting started guide: http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JbpmGettingStarted

- To get some samples, look at the Jbpm Console. Again, read the documentation mentioned above. You could also look at the source code etc.

- To create your interface, just read the documentation, learn how to use the Jbpm Libraries/API's, and write your interface however you want. I wrote my own web application, using the AppFuse framework, and integrated the Jbpm libraries. The Jbpm Console is a good example of an interface. Look at it's source code.

- I can't help with your last question, as I haven't even looked at BPEL.
