One
of the most important building blocks of Adaptive Case Management is
the ACM API. At one point or another you’re gonna need a way to get
information (think about a list of stakeholders, available activities,
milestones reached, etc.) out of the case. Since there’s no webservice
available yet that exposes the internals of the case, your only option
right now is the ACM API.
ACM evangelist Niall Commiskey has put some samples online
to give you a good feeling of the power of the ACM API. The examples
show how you can access the API by means of RMI. You first need to
obtain a BPMServiceClientFactory that gives access to the important services you’ll mostly be needing, i.e. the IBPMUserAuthenticationService (needed for obtaining a valid user context) and the ICaseService
(the service that exposes all important case information). Now,
obtaining an instance of the BPMServiceClientFactory involves some
boilerplate coding in which you’ll need the RMI url and user
credentials: Read the complete article here.
