Hello all!

I have a question regarding configuration jBPM 3.2.6.SP1 with JPA2 (Hibernate implementation). I am new in jBPM and I would like to ask you how can I do that in a proper way? You can find my configuration bellow.

What I would also like to know is – what in your opinion is the best approach to integrate jBPM with the web application (like in my case) - to integrate my persistent classes with the jBPM persistent classes and have one entity manager factory (hibernate session factory) or to use two data sources and synchronize transactions somehow.

Can you give me some examples or links or maybe you have some tips or suggestions what is the best way (and how) to do this?

I appreciate any help.

Regards,

Maciek
