hello Tim,

I remodeling my pages a bit since the tablelink change [in cvs branch HEAD], I have been reviewing my activity diagrams. The "table" functionality of bpm4struts is working and I can show a collection of objects in a table on a page with no problems. I can have one link on each row to skip off to the object create/read/update/delete page. That works great.
Is there an easy way to map an object to/from a form for my CRUD page? I currently have to define the event parameters going into the FrontEndView state that mirror[duplicate] the session object's attributes and then map them to/from a session object manually. If I just give the session object as event parameters to the FrontEndView, bpm4struts displays the toString() on the resulting page [which isn't helpful to me.]
currently, no .. this is still under development, I hope to have it available as an experimental feature in the RC-2 release, right before going final
for now you will explicitly need to model everything
What I'm looking for is some sort of tag where I can hint to the bean properties I want to have on the form that directly map to an event parameter object's properties. [Sort of like I can hint with @andromda.struts.view.table.columns tag for a collection in a table.]
you will be able to tag an <<Entity>> using the <<Manageable>> stereotype, this will make the Hibernate, Spring and Bpm4struts cartridge generate all CRUD operations for you, web pages and everything, 100% generated
(I'm even including support for criteria searches and the pageable lists returned by such a search will be using the 'paging' functionality of the underlying DB, not like the common displaytag implementation is handling it (which does not scale too well)
