AW: [jwt-dev] Integration: JWT and EPF Composer
|
Hi Samuel,
right now I don't use the EPF Composer (yet). As far as I
know it is closely related to modeling software processes (such as the waterfall
model or V-Model XT) in order to improve software development life-cycle. JWT is
less about software processes, but more about business processes and executable
workflows. Therefore, we generate code, too, but code that is executable on
workflow engines (XPDL, jPDL, BPEL, etc.).
We already had internally some discussions that an
integration with EPF would make sense and we'd love to do so, but alas we didn't
start any further discussions with the EPF team. But this is definitely
something we will have a closer look at (once we have the resources for
it).
Similarly, the MWE project is quite a good candidate for
integration, since we are both related to workflows and how to manage and model
them. We are already in contact with Bryan Hunt here (the lead developer of
MWE), so this might come earlier...
Since you are probably more familiar with EPF than I am,
maybe you already have some concrete ideas how you would see the integration of
EPF and JWT? Do you think about one modeler to generate the different artifacts
or would you prefer two different modelers with transformations between
both?
Thanks for your information and best
regards,
Florian

The EPF
(Eclipse Process Framework Composer www.eclipse.org/epf)
is excelent tool to define the process description. I use it since
2007.
Recently, I
knew the JWT (Java Workflow Tooling www.eclipse.org/jwt). Its a great tool too.
I
think that both tools could to work together, complementing each
other.
I
would like know if exists plans to integrate the both
tools?
Thanks!
