External User Interface

loswochos Jul 13, 2008 1:13 PM

Hello everybody,

has anybody of you experience with creating an external user interface for interaction with the jBpm engine? I want to create a custom portlet with tasklists etc. The task-forms must be able to post custom data to the workflow engine. Is this possible? How can I do that?

Best regards,

Alex

it is possible by 'simply' using the jbpm api.... just like the webconsole (jbpm4jsf) uses the api and the testcases, and seam, and the struts example in the wiki

Hi Ronald,

thanks for your answer. Do you have an example, how I can reflect, which process variables I have to post to a specific task in order to go on with the process? I need a generic way to create a form on the fly which then posts the required info to the jbpm engine. Which api functions do I need?

Best regards,

Alex

uhmmm ???? Would

do?

For the rest is your question so generic that I think you should dig into jBPM a little first and come with specific questions.
