I have a process whit some iteration between some tasks e some wsdl (services).
There are some variables in the service that are chenged (their value) in the task.
I manipulate this variable with the mapper and the data editor of the project, whit bpel, and it is ok.
I would like to know if it is possible to do an automatic import of some value that are in a file
and use this value to change the value of this variables, to put this value automactly in the bpel, without using the mapper manually.
I hope i have explained the problem well.

Flavio, this question has been asked before, and normally you should be able to use the doc function to use a xml file and fill the variable with it.

However at this time you cannot have that file deployed to the server, as the selection is computed from the dependencies of the diagram.

You can instead define the value of the variable and customize its initialization with a xml literal.

Thanks,

Antoine

i'm manipulating the project's file with this extension: *.bpel, whre there are all the variable and all the operation, is it correct?

You should not touch the BPEL files. They are derived from your diagrams and overridden every time a change is detected.

You can change the initialization information of the variable in the mapper or by right-clicking on the variable in the editor.

Thanks,

Antoine

Antonie, if it is possible, i would like to know what do you mean when you say: you should be able to use the doc function to use a xml file and fill the variable with it."
What is the doc function? How can i edit this xml file?what is the structure of this xml file?
The last thing: Is possibile to have the link of the other discussion about the import?
thanks for your attention.
Flavio Ortolano.

The doc funtion is a standard XPath function that reads a file.

It is not supported right now.

The alternative is to create a variable (using the popup toolbar, and choosing the $ sign shape), and right-click on it to change its initialization information. You will need to set the variable type.

Thanks,

Antoine
