Problems building GWT-Console-JBPM

[alegomes]

Hi,

I was trying to build gwt-console-jbpm as stated in [1] but some issues came up:

a) JBPM artifact version 3.3.0-SNAPSHOT could not be found in any repository. So, I changed it to 3.3.0.CR1.

<!-- By Ale! jbpm.version>3.3.0-SNAPSHOT</jbpm.version -->
<jbpm.version>3.3.0.CR1</jbpm.version>

b) There is a compilation error:

[INFO] Compiling 25 source files to /Volumes/Data/Code/redhat/jbpm/gwt-console/server/target/classes
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes, thats two common problems.

1) 3.3.0-SNAPSHOT is not yet in the repository. I'll publish it. Until then you need to build jbpm3 trunk in order to populate your local maven repository.

2) The console code is not compatible with 3.3.0.CR1.

I forgot to say that the console requires jbpm3 trunk to be installed on a AS instance anyway.
Hence we did not publish snapshots yet.

But I've added a README:

Prerequisites
-------------

The server module needs to be deployed on a running jboss instance, along with jbpm.
The easiest way is using the installer as described here: http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-12863

Build and test the console
--------------------------
General information can be found here:
https://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-12879

But the basics steps to get going are as follows:

1) Build the top level module (gwt-console)

 mvn clean install

2) Make sure both jBPM and the server module are installed on JBoss AS instance

 See http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-12863

3) Boot the AS and start the gwt console in hosted mode


 cd war
 mvn gwt:gwt

 // optionally
 mvn gwt:debug
