AFAIK, the Eclipse BPEL Designer should work, provided that you a) write your own deployment descriptor and b) package your process and deploy them manually. There may be some minor interoperability issues but I'm sure we can iron those out pretty quickly. Any takers for writing a plugin to package + deploy directly to Ode?
A free alternative is the Intalio Designer (http://bpms.intalio.com) that uses the BPMN notation and generates BPEL + WSDL that's 100% compatible with Apache Ode. It can package and deploy processes directly to Apache Ode when using the Axis2 IL. alex On 6/29/07, Manolo Gomez Lopez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I was writing the same question at the moment I received this message ;-) OK, apache ode seems to be a great product, I tried to write my own bpel processes and modifying my WSDL's to accomodate partnerlinktypes, but I'm sure you will agree with me this is far from neither easy nor intuitive, lots of namespaces out there... ;-) I also tried to use Eclipse Bpel designer, but with little success, seems to be still in early stages of development, and still it isn't intuitive enough. Do you use any graphical designer for writing your BPEL processes to be deployed on Apache ODE? Is there any tool out there wich generates BPEL files compatible with Apache ODE? 2007/6/29, Van Caesar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > I need an environment to use ode, design .bpel and .wsdl, then compile it. > > I don't know if eclipse's bpel designer can do it.
