APIs

PAPI InstanceInfo.getVariable() method goes to the engine every time for non-existing external variables. To avoid this, we've added the method InstanceInfo.getExternalVariable(). This method never goes to the engine to look for external variable value, even if variableId does not belong to the instance. When this method does not find the variableId, it throws a InvalidVariableIdException. In order to get more information please see PAPI Javadoc. (Issue #30229)
Race condition in PAPI-WS session management appears under high load with several concurrent requesters. (Issue #30340)

Directory Services and Databases

Installation and Licensing

SQL scripts have been added to BPM installation "conf" directory. Such scripts should be used when migrating Engine, FDI, Datamart, Archiving and BAM dbases from 5.5 to 6.0 . Related documentation should be read for scripts usage. (Issue #30388)

AquaLogic BPM 6.0 MP 3 build #86775

Release Comments and Post Installation Tasks (possibly only a subset or none apply depending on project feature usage)

If a Java Library has been introspected that contains classes with inner classes in an ALBPM 6.0 project, it is necessary to re-catalog the Java Library again. In addition, references to the inner classes should be checked in PBL code since the path or package resolution may have changed. (Issue #30042)
There have been some PAPI cache refresh improvements introduced in ALBPM 6.0 MP3. In order to leverage this optimizations, it is necessary that both the client and server side of the ALBPM solution use this maintenance pack as a baseline. If this optimization is not needed or desired, then it is still possible to have ALBPM 6.0 MP3 on the engine with a previous version of ALBPM 6.0 on the client side as this is a supported configuration. (Issue #30216)
Arguments in classes with methods that returns java.Util.Date are introspected as that same type while in 5.X were introspected as Fuego.Lang.Time, so the PBL code from older versions may not compile in 6.X. (Issue #29580)
Global Automatic and Due Transition times in ALBPM Studio were shown using relative Timezone adjustments when these should be shown without any timezone math in them. For this reason, when the project is opened in ALBPM 6.0 MP3, the dates may shown in an absolute time without any time adjustments. (Issue #29983)
A previously created ALBPM project using Java Libraries may stop compiling due to a bug fixed when resolving java method arguments IF an existing Java Library is re-catalogued. This happens if the method arguments are of type Long or Double. The method argument names will change producing method argument resolution problems. (Issue #30112)
For example: - Suppose that you have a catalogued JAR with a method that contains one or more arguments of type Long or Double:
JAVA method: save(Long id, String *name*); Catalogued Method: save(Long id, String *arg2*); Used method: save(id: 1234, *arg2*: "john");
- After applying this patch:
JAVA method: save(Long id, String *name*); Catalogued Method: save(Long id, String *name*); Used method: save(id: 1234, *arg2*: "john"); --> ERROR: Invalid value for argument '......
- So, you will have to change the name of the argument *arg1* for *name* where it is being used:
Used method: save(id: 1234, *name*: "john");
Due to a bug correction in ALBPM WE, PAPI no longer reads instance attachment information in every instance access. This means that attachment changes will not be taken into consideration until the ALBPM WorkSpace Web Application accesses from the ALI Portal until it is restarted. (Issue #30210)
The classes for customizing WorkList cells and rows are changing their names. The following are the new names:
1) ViewTableXXX to WorkListXXX. 2) StyleResolver to Decorator. 3) getDecoratedCellValue with rowIndex. 4) getDecoratedCellValue to getValue. (Issue #30223)
Due to a bug and extension included in ALBPM 6.0 MP3, PAPI-WS client proxies will need to be re-generated before they can start conversation with the PAPI-WS ALBPM 6.0 MP3 Web Application. (Issue #30263)

New Features

Standards

Process models in ALBPM are now compliant with the XPDL 2.0 standard. When ALBPM 5.7 process are imported in ALBPM 6.0 Studio, XPDLs are automatically converted to XPDL 2.0 format.
Support for BPEL 2.0. You can import BPEL 2.0 models into an ALBPM Project, and new models can be designed within ALBPM Studio. The Process Execution Engine is now capable of executing BPEL 2.0 natively.
ALBPM Studio application is now built on top of the Eclipse platform.

Designer and Studio

Studio now includes a software agent for automatic problem reporting and feedback. In case of unexpected errors in Studio, an automatic report will be sent to BEA for analysis. Studio will prompt you for approval before enabling this feature. We also encourage you to send us feedback using the Help > Feedback... menu option.
When you first start ALBPM Studio, you have to select one of the available profiles according your skill set: Business Analyst, Business Developer, Developer. ALBPM Studio presents a different subset of features depending on the selected profile. This keeps the user interface uncluttered, hiding what you don't need. All available features are visible under the Developer profile. The on-line documentation in Studio is also filtered depending on the active profile. To switch profiles go to Help > Welcome.
This new release introduces the concept of Project Variables, replacing the External and Business Variables of previous versions. Project Variables are functionally equivalent to the old External Variables but are simpler to use: they are available to all processes in the project, with no need to "promote" them from External to Instance. Project Variables behave as the old Business Variables when the new property Business indicator is enabled.
ALBPM project directories do not use the .fpr extension anymore.
The Organization data and Simulation definitions are now accessed as nodes in the project tree.
Integration with Version Control System feature (VSS) was re-implemented to leverage the Eclipse platform. This paves the way for supporting virtually any Source Control systems compatible with Eclipse.
Each resource that is independently stored as part of an ALBPM Project is modified using an "Editor" tabbed panel, and you must explicitly save your changes on each resource with File > Save . For example, on earlier versions of Studio you add or modify a Participant using a separate dialog window. Now a special Participants editor opens in a new tab of the edition area. This makes it easier to work with Version Control systems, as each resource is managed and saved independently.
Some editors may open nested editors (accessible via smaller tabs at the bottom of the editor). For example, the editor for Process models uses independent sub-tabs for the process diagram and for each opened process method.
You can now open several projects at the same time. Before opening a project, you first need to add it to your Studio workspace.
Incremental compilation: Studio's Process Execution Engine immediately applies changes you make to the code. No need for Publish&Deploy anymore.
A new type of Interactive activity: Decision activities. This type of activity allows the end user to decide the next path a process instance will take (one of the possible outgoing transitions), based on the value of certain instance variables. The Process Execution Engine keeps track of those decisions over time and presents the end user with recommendations on what decision to take based on past experience.
Business Rules: ALBPM Studio now provides a way of defining business rules using a graphical rules editor, without requiring any coding. After the project is deployed, authorized end users can also modify these rules on-the-fly, while the processes are executing. They can do so right from the ALBPM WorkSpace UI.
Round-trip Simulation: You can now create Simulation models from the actual execution of the processes during a given period of time. This makes it easier to create realistic Simulation models.

Administrative Tools

WorkSpace or End User Components

ALBPM WorkSpace has been re-designed and re-implemented from the ground up. It is based on a modern modular architecture which makes it easier to customize and integrate naturally with AquaLogic UI and WebLogic Portal. The old WorkSpace is still provided for backward compatibility but may be removed in future versions.
Dashboards provide better quality graphics and end user interaction (i.e. rotation, detaching of pie sections).
ALBPM RSS Feeds Web Application allows end users to participate in business processes using their RSS Reader of choice being able to authentication and register with a specific view RSS Feed. Each View accessible through WorkSpace can be accessed from from an RSS Reader like Outlook.

Process Execution Engine

Support for BPEL 2.0. You can import BPEL 2.0 models into an ALBPM Project, and new models can be designed within ALBPM Studio. The Process Execution Engine is now capable of executing BPEL 2.0 natively.
The Process Execution Engine has been migrated to a micro activity implementation to support concurrent execution of BPEL 2.0 and XPDL 2.0 business processes on the same Engine.
The deployment of the Process Execution Engine has been significantly simplified where only the Engine EAR needs to reside in the J2EE Container. It is no longer necessary to deploy the project version EAR files since these resources will be automatically downloaded from the Directory Service and injected into the Engine EAR Classloaders to provide an execution model identical to the Standalone Engine.
There is a new Configuration Wizard that will help create a complete new Enterprise Standalone and Enterprise for WebLogic single domain environment with the assistance of a wizard accelerating the time to have a new ALBPM Enterprise deployment.

APIs

A new version of the PAPI Web Service API (PAPI-WS 2.0) is distributed with ALBPM installers. This new stateless version of PAPI-WS is functionaly equivalen to PAPI and it also adhered to the WS-Security specification using the UserNameToken Profile implementation as well as HTTP Basic Authentication.

Integration and Infrastructure

Native integration with ALSB 2.6. You can now easily consume ALSB services from ALBPM and also register a business process in ALSB. In addition, a Custom Transport has been implemented over RMI to enforce security and transaction propagation when ALSB and ALBPM run on the same domain.
Web Services in ALBPM now include support for WS-Security, Document-Literal style and WS-I compliance.
ALBPM Studio now includes JDBC drivers for the most popular DBMS. This means you can integrate with Oracle, DB2 and Microsoft SQL Server right out of the box.
ALBPM WE is distributed with ALBPM Enterprise installer distributions consolidating the installation and setup on a single set of bits.
ALBPM WorkSpace can be deployed in ALUI 6.1 MP1 and WLP 10.0 using the same End User Experience.
ALBPM Enterprise distributions are distributing embeddable JDBC Drivers from Data Direct. It is no longer necessary to install JDBC Drivers from Database vendors minimizing installation and setup issues related to database connectivity.
Directory Services can be configured in a Hybrid configuration where authentication and authorization can be delegated to Microsoft Active Directory or Sun One Directory Service while the rest of the metadata resides in a transactions RDBMS preventing replication of participants and entitlements.
ALBPM is completely coded and compiled using JVM 1.5.

Deprecated Features

WorkSpace or End User Components

ALBPM HiPer WorkSpace has been deprecated in favor of the new WorkSpace implemented in JSF and deployable as a Web Application.
ALBPM JSR-168 Portlets have been deprecated in favor of the new WorkSpace deployable in WLP 10.0. This new interface matches the WorkSpace functionality as well as supporting SSO.

Directory Service

LDAP Pure Directory Service Plugins for Microsoft Active Directory and Sun One Directory Service have been deprecated in favor of the new Hybrid Directory Service implementations.

APIs

PAPI-WS 1.0 has been deprecated in favor of the new PAPI-WS 2.0. PAPI-WS 1.0 is accessible through the HiPer WorkSpace while PAPI-WS 2.0 is accessible through its own Web Application. This new version of PAPI-WS is more functional as well as being completely stateless due its adherence to WS-Security. It is no longer necessary to create a login token needed in all subsequent calls.
PAPI has deprecated some methods and added new ones. Deprecated PAPI methods in ALBPM 5.7 have been deleted from the API.
WAPI accessible through the HiPer WorkSpace Web Application has been deprecated and a new HTTP Post API has been created as a replacement. This new API is accessible through the new WorkSpace implementation.

Known Issues

Designer and Studio

InvalidDirectorySessionException debugging a method that uses BusinessParameter.getValue() (Issue #16592)
++ operator when using the Java Skin produces a project publication error. (Issue #16940)

Workaround: Instead of using variable++, use variable = variable + 1
Code auto completion for Enumerations introduce a syntax error in the code. (Issue #17519)

Workaround: Try not to use code auto completion for enumerations.
ClassCastException debugging an EJB component in ALBPM Studio after it was introspected. (Issue #18236)

Workaround: Relaunch Studio and it will be possible to debug the introspected EJB.
It is not possible to introspect 2 different Java libraries with a shared java package name in the same ALBPM Project Catalog Module. (Issue #18434)

Workaround: Introspect different Java libraries with a common Java package name into different ALBPM Project Catalog modules so that different namespaces are produced.
Code completion does not tab through the output parameters of a Web Service template dragged into the PBL Method Editor. (Issue #18609)

Workaround: Manually place the cursor in the Web Service output parameter and define the argument association.
The queues that show when the process simulation is running, may disappear when moving the process scroll bars up or down when the process cannot be completely drawn in the process. (Issue #18689)
A project fails to publish when it contains a BPM Object with the same name as the Organization name provided to the project. (Issue #18696)
