Yes thanks Ronald for looking into it.
Yesterday evening (reading a german JBOSS Book) I found another hint in the 
chapter about the mbean server.
So first one would have to find the mbean server by a 
MBEanServerLocater.locateJBoss().
Then an ObjectName needs to be created with the name of the requested MBean. 
With the ObjectName returned one can call the mbean's methods with a 
ms.invoke(objectName,mymethod,...) where ms is teh mbean server returned from 
the locateJBoss().
I have not looked into the webapp for this yet... (have some real work to do)

2006-05-10 Thread kukeltje
My first impressions:

- the mbean is of type JbpmService
- it creates a JbpmConfiguration which it binds in the jndi tree
- in the webapp (jsf based) the JbpmBean plays an important role, especially 
the method getJbpmContext()

So most likely it would be enough to do something like
JbpmContext  jbpmContext = 
JbpmConfiguration.getInstance().createJbpmContext();

And as far as I can tell, there is no difference between using jBPM from the 
sar or embedded. It could be however that there are some changes in this area 
(I know some things are goiong on to change from mbean deployed to jca)

Further I have not tried this yet (no time today) but asked Tom to give a short 
comment on this.

2006-05-10 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I was just looking at that as well.  It seems to me that the approach is broken 
(redundant).

As far as i can read the current code, the JbpmConfiguration that is put in 
JNDI is never used.

When the JbpmConfiguration.getInstance() method it used, it lazy initializes a 
JbpmConfiguration based on the resource 'jbpm.cfg.xml'.  This configuration is 
cached in a static variable in JbpmConfiguration.  So the jBPM configuration 
used is the one that is cached in the JbpmConfiguration static member rather 
then the JNDI one.

This lead to the following basic question: what is the benefit of putting 
something in JNDI ? 
http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bbop=viewtopicp=3942144#3942144  That 
thread also discusses something relevant.  Namely: should we create a JCA .rar 
that publishes JbpmConfiguration into JNDI  so that we have a portable way of 
deploying jBPM on an app server.

So for now, I don't see a problem with the current approach.  (except for the 
redundency that the JbpmConfiguration that is published in JNDI is never used)

one more thing.  i didn't yet answer the question what is the jbpm.sar good 
for

the way we use it now, it is an alternative way to put the jbpm libs on the 
global classpath.

it also allows us to publish JbpmConfiguration to JNDI, but as stated in the 
previous post, that is never used and redundant.

Can you explain this a little bit more or give some pointer to the docs to 
understand this more precisely ?.anonymous wrote : the way we use it now, it is

I'd conclude from it that everything that is deployed as a sar (which is the 
way mbeans are deployed ?) is accessible from any other ear, war and thus I'd 
never have to use either jndi lookup of the mbean or the other ways mentioned 
in the JMX Microkernel chapters ? In a german textbook they access the mbean 
via ObjectName,MBeanServer,invoke (which I have not found in the english doc 
yet; Ok I did not look closely enough `-:)

Partially true. If you just load them as classes, that is just what they are. 
Loading them via the mbean server gives you additional functionality like 
stopping it, monitoring it etc via JMX, depending on the functionality in the 
bean.

2006-05-10 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
indeed no conflict.

to install multiple jbpm configurations in one server is the easiest by using 
different, non-default configurations e.g. a left.jbpm.cfg.xml and 
right.jbpm.cfg.xml in the classpath.

then use JbpmConfiguration.getInstance(left.jbpm.cfg.xml); to get the left 
jbpm instance.

to have different versions of jbpm in your server, you need to configure scoped 
classloaders in jboss and package the jbpms into different .ear files.

those are the most straightforward deployment models that you can persue out of 
the top of my head.

Well I've been using the SAR for quite a while (just in case you thought nobody 
was using it).  I've got stress testing with hundreds of users in separate 
threads all getting, using, and closing sessions with: (obviously abbreviated)

  | JbpmConfiguration jbpmConfig = null;
  | log.debug(Getting jbpm config from JNDI);
  | Context ctx = new InitialContext();
  | try {
  |   jbpmConfig = 
(JbpmConfiguration)ctx.lookup(java:/jbpm/JbpmConfiguration);
  | } catch (Exception e) {
  |   log.debug(Failed getting context object: +e);
  | }
  | if (jbpmConfig!=null) {
  |   log.debug(Getting jbpmContext from config);
  |   jbpmContext = jbpmConfig.createJbpmContext();
  | } else {
  |   log.error(JbpmConfiguration is null);
  | }
  | return jbpmConfig
  | 
I also use the SAR to deploy the JBPM jars, config files, and my own assignment 
handlers bundled in a jar.  Additionally, I've got changes to JBPM queries that 
are deployed as a new hibernate.queries.hbm.xml in the SAR (which is rebuilt 
and deployed as part of my build process).

So if you look hard enough you might find a use.  :)

Right now my application (btw. a struts liferay portlet) comes with its own set
of hibernate.cfg.xml and jbpm.cfg.xml. However, it does not 'feel' right, since
these files also lie in the service archive as well.

Maybe I am asking too obvious questions - the problem is I do not find
anything about the jbpm.sar in the documentation, except in Chapter 8.

Thanks for helping me out.

2006-05-09 Thread jglan
I think the situation is similar to  sample mbean (JNDIMap)  from the official 
JBOSS 4.0  guide. According to that (page 95) a simple jndi lookup should make 
it (to get JbpmConfiguration). But I (as you) have not found anything in the 
web app that uses this kind of lookup/access of the sar. So I'd really 
appreciate some guru to answer  this 'trivial' question without having to read 
the complete guide + sources, examples (which also would take a long time to 
understand, at least for me :-( )
Thanks.
