Dear Community, 

I am happy to finally announce a new release of the JPDL designer. You can 
download it on the source forge download pages : 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=70542&package_id=116692&release_id=477988.

The release was built and tested with WTP 1.5.1 and all its drivers (Eclipse 
SDK 3.2.1, GEF 3.2.1, EMF 2.2.1, JEM 1.2.1). The distribution comes in two 
flavours: a regular zip file containing all what is needed to install the 
designer in a clean Eclipse environment and a 'nodeps' flavour that does not 
contain any additional plug-ins taken from WTP, GEF or EMF. You can use this 
nodeps flavour if you have already an Eclipse installation containing these 
drivers. To install it, simply extract the archive file over your Eclipse 
installation or use the Eclipse link mechanism.

As you might or might not know, the 3.1.x stream of the jBPM JPDL designer is 
based on an entirely new core model. The purpose of this new model is to enable 
full JPDL support that was lacking until now. The 3.1.x stream is targeted at 
jBPM JPDL 3.2 and above with backwards compatibility for older JPDL versions. 
However, the UI will not prohibit the user to use 3.2 features.

This release is an alpha release, containing code that is quite usable but not 
yet fully stabilized. Known problems exist when using the XML source pane to 
edit the process definition and switching back to the graphical view. A 
solution to these issues will be part of a future release. The purpose of this 
release is to gather feedback from the community concerning some of the new 
things that were introduced:
- Use of the tabbed property view to edit the different properties of the JPDL 
elements
- A JPDL perspective

Have a look at the release notes in the distribution or online 
(https://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=477988&group_id=70542).

Comments on the layout of the different forms and occupation of the screen real 
estate defined by the perspective are more than welcomed. Please post comments 
here on the forum and don't hesitate to file issues and bugs to JIRA 
(http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/GPD).

Have fun,
Koen
