Providing Process Libraries

Process libraries provide an easy way to use process models for multiple users. They allow know-how to be bundled, stored centrally and to be reused in a targeted manner. 


To provide process libraries the following steps are required:

  1. Installing the process library: Place the process library as ZIP or jar file under Server\X4DB\X4modules.

  2. Configuring and providing the process library: Configure and provide the process library on the Server via the file modules.xml (Server\X4DB\X4modules\). 

    XML
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <modules>
    	<global project="MyFirstLibrary" jar="MyFirstLibrary.zip"/>
    	<local userId="1" project="MySecondLibrary" jar="MyFirstLibrary.jar"/>
    </modules>
