        Adrian,

        those are indeed very interesting scenarios.

        we could set up a module in the jbpm4 trunk for this. would that be a good starting point for you ?

        how about library dependencies ?

          Pure xsd's is to limited, e.g. no option to specify readonly or specify labels (unless e.g., using annotations) but there is a technology independent (rendering wise) form definition, xforms. There have been multiple posts on this.

          It is the rendering of these definitions and the actual usage (in the console, but also in user application imo). That could of course be done runtime in the console, but it is also about customizability. In all a very broad subject that me might start defining on a wiki page and discuss here.


          then we could easily build applications that interact with the task management by any means. JSF could then be one of them.

          Well, yes and no... we could but to what extend are we going to support components for this that can be used by end-users? Or won't we?

            Ehh.... Tom... facelets is related to JSF. It is about rendering components to something. HTML for webpages, but it could also be wap, xml, text or anything. And the way seam uses it for email is just rendering... not to a screen, but rendering never the less and therefor also done in the jsf rendering phase. So I'm e.g. not sure how using facelets for rendering an email would work if it is e.g. done for a reminder... Maybe some of the Seam guys could comment on this

            It is possible though to write JSF components in GWT by using e.g. http://unrealities.com/seamgwt. Still, we should first make clear what we want and when.

              Ok, did some digging.... seam uses a mock servlet/facescontext to achieve rendering when not done via a direct jsf request. So it seems (pun intended) (parts of) seam (are) is needed if using facelets templating is what is what is on the requirements list.

                Tom,

                In the first instance I'd like to make a jar available to allow people to experiment with. What would be the best way of doing this? Like a lot of these things this 'project' has evolved and the code needs a bit of restructuring to separate the CalDav generic code from the JBPM specific...also would be good to get it on to JBPM 4. Hence the original questions in this thread...

                Library dependencies are limited to iCal4j (dependent on commons-lang-2.3.jar) and currently Tomcat's servlets-default.jar and servlets-webdav.jar. I hope I can do away with the Tomcat dependency.

                  jBPM iCalendar wrapper available...at last.

                  At long last I've managed to package up and make available a working release of the iCalendar wrapper...which I'm calling taskcal.

                  https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=256581

                  I'm making this version available to validate the concepts. More work is required (e.g. authentication) for this to be turned in to a production system.
