Business Process Choreographer Explorer components

The Business Process Choreographer Explorer components are a set of configurable, reusable elements that are based on the JavaServer Faces (JSF) technology.

You can imbed these components into Web applications. These applications can then access installed business process and human task applications. The set of components consists of JSF components and client model components. The relationship of the components to Business Process Choreographer, Business Process Choreographer Explorer, and other custom clients is shown in the following figure.

of the Business Process Choreographer Explorer components to clients and to
the Business Process Choreographer APIs

JSF components

The Business Process Choreographer Explorer components include a set of JSF components:
  • List component

    The list component displays a list of application objects in a table, for example, tasks, activities, process instances, process templates, work items or escalations. This component has an associated list handler.

  • Details component

    The details component displays the properties of tasks, work items, activities, process instances, and process templates. This component has an associated details handler.

  • Command-bar component

    The command-bar component displays a bar with buttons. These buttons operate on the object in a details view or the selected objects in a list. This component also has an item provider that uses either the list handler or the details handler.

  • Message component

    The message component displays Service Data Object (SDO) messages or simple types.

You imbed these JSF components into your JavaServer Pages (JSP) files when you build Web applications for managing business process and human tasks.

Client model components

The client model components are a set of bean objects for client applications. A bean object is a plain Java object, which provides getter and setters methods to access its properties. These bean objects conform to the JavaBeans conventions.

The client model components provide a set of beans that implement the interfaces of some of the underlying Business Process Choreographer API. The client model beans wrap the original object overriding the object's properties and set and get methods. The beans also provide national-language support and default converters for some properties.
