We could look at adding some better fluent support in Aries blueprint (although it would be in a non-standard namespace). It might be a while before there was anything actually in trunk though.

Once I'll need to inject more values I will have 100 lines only to put true or false in some fields. Regards,Lukasz Hi, It's not very concise, but this should work: <bean id="processEngineConfiguration1" class="org.activiti.engine.ProcessEngineConfiguration" factory-method="createStandaloneInMemProcessEngineConfiguration"/> <bean id="processEngineConfiguration2" factory-ref="processEngineConfiguration1" factory-method="setDatabaseSchemaUpdate"> <argument value="false"/> </bean> <bean id="processEngineConfiguration3" factory-ref="processEngineConfiguration2" factory-method="setDataSource"> <argument> <bean class="org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource"> <property name="url" value="jdbc:h2:mem:activiti" /> </bean> </argument> </bean> <bean id="processEngineConfiguration4" factory-ref="processEngineConfiguration3" factory-method="setJobExecutorActivate"> <argument value="true"/> </bean> <bean id="processEngine" factory-ref="processEngineConfiguration4" factory-method="buildProcessEngine"/> If you're interested in more information about advanced blueprint techniques then you may find Enterprise OSGi in Action to be a useful resource.

The problem I meet was related to fluent builders. Activiti can be configured with fluent builder, for example: ProcessEngine processEngine = ProcessEngineConfiguration.createStandaloneInMemProcessEngineConfiguration() .setDatabaseSchemaUpdate(ProcessEngineConfiguration.DB_SCHEMA_UPDATE_FALSE) .setJdbcUrl("jdbc:h2:mem:my-own-db;DB_CLOSE_DELAY=1000") .setJobExecutorActivate(true) .buildProcessEngine(); I ported this fragment to an XML fragment: <bean id="processEngineConfiguration" class="org.activiti.engine.impl.cfg.StandaloneInMemProcessEngineConfiguration"> <property name="jobExecutorActivate" value="true" /> <property name="databaseSchemaUpdate" value="false" /> <property name="dataSource"> <bean class="org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource"> <property name="url" value="jdbc:h2:mem:activiti" /> </bean> </property> </bean> <bean id="processEngine" factory-ref="processEngineConfiguration" factory-method="buildProcessEngine"> </bean> The error reported by blueprint is:org.osgi.service.blueprint.container.ComponentDefinitionException: No setter for jobExecutorActivate property The jobExecutorActivate property returns an instance of ProcessEngineConfiguration so it is not a regular Java Bean property. Do you have any ideas how to manage both - Aries and Activiti to work together? Best regards,Lukasz
