Mapping Java to BPM Components

This section explains how Java types are presented as PBL types when cataloged.

Packages to Module mapping

For each Java package you catalog, BPM Studio creates a new module in your component catalog.

Module names are capitalized to follow PBL naming conventions for modules.

Java types are mapped to PBL types as defined in the following table:

Java Type	PBL Type
java.lang.String, java.lang.Character, char	String
java.lang.Byte, java.lang.Short, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Long, java.lang.Number, byte, short, int, long	Int
java.math.BigDecimal	Decimal
java.lang.Float, java.lang.Double, float, double	Real
java.lang.Boolean, boolean	Bool
java.util.Date, java.sql.Date, java.sql.Time, java.sql.Timestamp, fuego.lang.Time	Time
byte[]	Binary
primitive Java arrays, any implementation of java.util.List, any implementation of java.util.Set, java.util.Vector, any implementation of java.util.Collection.	array
any implementation of java.util.Map or java.util.SortedMap.	associative array
fuego.lang.Interval	Interval
