Which folder to look for runtime libraries in BRMS or BPM Suite 6.1 to create the Drools or jBPM runtime for JBDS/Eclipse project?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Environment

  • Red Hat JBoss BRMS (BRMS)
    • 6.1.0
  • Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite (BPMS)
    • 6.1.0

Issue

  • Uses have installed the BRMS 6.1.0 from the file jboss-brms-6.1.0.GA-installer.jar and BPMS 6.1.0 from the jboss-bpmsuite-6.1.0.GA-installer.jar installer , which are available from Customer Portal website. Now they want to create a new project in eclipse and want to know to which folder (that might contain the Drools 6 and jBPM 6 runtime libraries) should they use to configure the runtime used for their JBDS or Eclipse based Drools 6 or jBPM 6 project.

Resolution

  • Starting from BRMS 6.1.0 and BPMS 6.1.0 , Red Hat is shipping all the required Drools and jBPM runtime libraries inside it's fat WARs. Which implies that instead of providing the Drools/jBPM and other related libraries separately within EAP 6 modules , they are now being packaged inside the WAR's WEB-INF/lib folder like business-central.war/WEB-INF/lib folder. So users can easily locate those folders and point their JBDS/Eclipse based projects to this location for the runtime libraries.
  • Also, make sure you are setting the jBPM Runtime under the jBPM -> Installed jBPM Runtimes option as described in Getting Started Guide - 8.4. Setting the JBoss BPM Suite Runtime section.
