Rafal Rusin commented on ODE-483:
---------------------------------

It's great that you picked it up. I'm planning to commit it to 1.X as soon as I 
create a few test cases.
If you plan to add collaboration between processes for replayer, please 
describe your solution and then I'll create a branch on github and give you 
access, so you can work on it.

> Imagine situation when client has deployed a process with a lot of active, 
> long running instances. Then he finds there's a bug in this process and a 
> simple bugfix is needed. But with current versioning rules, new version is 
> only used when new instances are created. So there's no simple way for doing 
> such bufixes (which are usually possible with eg. java application using 
> database connection). It is a blocking argument for deploying ODE Bpel 
> solution instead of a regular java application.
> I think the best way to deal with such situations is to add 
> serialize/deserialize to/from xml operations for process instances in 
> management API. Also pause/resume ODE operations would be useful. 
> Then, a bugfix procedure would look like this;
> -pause ode
> -serialize instances
> -deploy newer version
> -deserialize instances and fix manually any import errors 
> -resume ODE
> It would also be a benefit of being able to do migration from older to newer 
> ODE and between Hibernate/JPA DAOs, which I saw already in some bug reports. 
> What do you think about it?
> Regards
