Hello, this is to consult on the various WSDL files that I noticed when studying on Intalio.

So far, according to the documentation on the web, I have reviewed the TokenService, TaskManagementService and TaskManagerProcess.

But I have seen when running Intalio Server, several WSDL files in the following routes:

http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/TokenService?wsdl (TokenService)
http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/TaskManagementServices?wsdl (TaskManagementServices)
http://localhost:8080/ode/processes/TMP?wsdl (TMPService)
http://localhost:8080/ode/processes/completeTask?wsdl (UIFWService)
http://localhost:8080/ode/processes/workflow/ib4p?wsdl (UserBusinessProcessService)

I have also been noted, the following routes repositories:

http://tempo.intalio.org/tempo/trunk/
http://tempo.intalio.org/tempo/branches/

In both I could find the following files, several of them interdependent:

b4p.xsd
TaskManagementSystem.wsdl
TaskManagementService.wsdl
TaskManagerProcess.wsdl
TMP-TaskManagementProcess.wsdl
UserBusinessProcess.wsdl
TMP.wsdl
TokenService.wsdl

So far, to integrate an external application with Intalio I work with files from the repository branches, but only I used methods TokenService.wsdl, TaskManagerProcess.wsdl and TaskManagementService.wsdl. But with so many WSDL files, I doubt if I'm using the appropriate WSDL.

That is why I have 3 questions:

1º What is the difference between the WSDL that are in http://localhost:8080/axis2/ ... http://localhost:8080/ode/processes/ and ... with those found in repositories (trunk and branches)?

2º What are the appropriate WSDL, which must work to integrate an external application with Intalio?

3º Considering the documentation tempo to create and complete tasks (http://www.intalio.org/confluence/display/TEMPO/Creating+and+Completing+a+Task) what is the relationship or correspondence between the components of tempo and the WSDL (http://localhost:8080/ ... and repositories)?

Hi,

customizing the product and redistributing it consists into an infringement of the license of Intalio|BPMS Server. Please contact our professional services through for more information and help.

Thanks,

Antoine

I must clarify that I am not personalizing or redeployment any product of Intalio. I am studying the integration of an external application with Intalio (Community Edition). To this end I am writing my own clients webservices to consume the services provided Intalio. That's why I'm studying files WSDL.

I basé in OpenSource characteristic of some components of Intalio and the opinions of administrators in some entrances of the forum:

http://bpms.intalio.com/forums/general-questions/re-getting-bmps-sourc...
http://bpms.intalio.com/forums/spanish-forum/problemas-al-generar-webs...

Considering the views of ihabo01 and jag, I thought that there was no problem with what I am doing (Integrating an external application with Intalio community edition), but his opinion worries me, why should I ask:

1º Can I use Intalio Community Edition as part of a project?, what are the considerations of license and other, restrictions on use?

2º If there are no drawbacks, I hope you can help me in my initial consultation.

You will probably get a better answer from the tempo group ( for example see this thread ) but there is a problem with using the wsdl returned by the bpms server associated with the way AXIS is operating so you are right to use the repository versions at present.
My guess is that you might find the Intalio CE and repository versions of wsdl get out of step.

Your work is OK with regards to the Intalio Community license. Sorry for the FUD.

As David points out, the Tempo mailing list is the right place to find help on the Tempo project, which covers most of the workflow components. You should find some developer oriented documentation there.

If you want to know more about the services provided by the engine itself, you can ask questions on the Apache ODE user mailing list or consult their documentation. Look for references of the management API.

There also was an effort on building a new web application to manage processes as part of a Google Summer of Code project that might be using those services.
Thanks,

Antoine

Hi,
Please have a look at the following document:
http://www.intalio.org/public/tempo/tempoarch.pdf.

It explains briefly but very clearly how the workflow works. This will give you an exact idea on what components you will interact with if you want to integrate on the UI level.

For the wsdls, just like david said, always use the original ones as the others are wsdls generated automatically by Axis2 ( based on the originals) with some more bindings and services. However, those wsdl have some bugs.

Regards,
