The main reasons appear when you start replicating behaviour of the Taverna Server - like workflow queuing, error handling and how your application deals with input and output data. If you are just running a particular workflow then running the Taverna Server instead of the Platform or WorkflowInstanceFacade would probably only give you overhead - although it would also make it easier to avoid some of the classloader issues with supporting multiple service types. (If you munge all the activities Taverna support into a big classloader some of them will not work as they expect different versions - or none of them might work if you end up with several instances of the same library) It also depends on your application, for instance if it's written in a different language then Java it would probably be easier to write a simple REST-client towards the Taverna Server than to try doing something with JNI or similar. >> > - When I try to create a commandline-project using a Maven >> > archetype (described in >> > http://www.mygrid.org.uk/files/2009/03/t2platform-guide-p01b1.pdf, >> > chapter 3.2.1) I get this error message: [...] >> >> Where in the mvn do you get this error?
