jdev.conf
Thease are my JDeveloper "performence" settings I use today:
- tools->preferences->extensions
I disabled all the extentions I do not currently use such as ADF, Webcenter ...
I edited my jdev conf file ("C:\java\jdevstudio10133\jdev\bin\jdev.conf") and added/changed the following parameteres:
AddVMOption -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=false
AddVMOption -Dsun.java2d.ddoffscreen=false
#SetJavaVM server
AddVMOption -Xmx1024M
AddVMOption -Xms512M
AddVMOption -Dcompiler.vmargs=-mx1024m
#
# Use this to prevent Windows from paging JDev's memory
# when you minimize it.
# This option should have the same effect as
# the KeepResident plug-in with the advantage
# of being a built-in feature in Sun's JVM 5.
# @see http://java2go.blogspot.com/2007/06/jdeveloper-tips-2-fine-tuning.html
AddVMOption -Dsun.awt.keepWorkingSetOnMinimize=true

Useful links
Some links to blogentries I looked on today:
How to dynamically call a partnerlink:
"In most basic process designs, partner links are static; they refer to a single external process selected by the developer at design time. This approach is appropriate for highly targeted or constrained systems. However, in larger systems business processes are more complex. They interact with multiple external services and define multiple partner links, and some of these partner links might not be known at design time. As a result, all potential callouts and logic for deciding which partner links to use must be built inside the business process itself—unnecessarily complicating that process. Furthermore, as additional partner links are added, the resulting process grows more and more unwieldy, as any changes to the partner links require modification of the entire business process."

Patch 6501312 - BPEL Repository spring cleaning
A new patch with id 6501312 creates a purge_instances procedure in the oraclebpel schema that you can use to delete your old BPEL Process instances.
Currently (Thu Dec 13 15:36:56 CET 2007) there seemes to be a problem with the paths for this patch in unix so I installed it using the following procedure:
1 Copy the files in 6501312/files/bpel\system\database\scripts to $ORACLE_HOME/bpel/system/database/scripts
2. Run the sqlplus scrip to create index and create the procedure "purge_instances".
Example:
bash$ sqlplus /nolog
SQL*Plus: Release 10.1.0.5.0 - Production on Thu Dec 13 10:19:06 2007
Copyright (c) 1982, 2005, Oracle. All rights reserved.
SQL> connect orabpel@instance
Enter password:
Connected.
SQL> @upgrade_6501312_oracle.sql
SQL> commit;
SQL> @purge_instances_oracle.sql
After this you may start your spring cleaning:
BEGIN
purge_instances(to_timestamp('2007-12-13 10:30:25','YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'));
COMMIT;
END;
Happy cleaning!

[Error ORABPEL-10902]: compilation failed, XML parsing failed because ""
ORABPEL-10902 shows up from time to time to annoy any BPEL developer.
It could be (I think) somthing like:
- General namespace errors
- Incorrect variable errors
- Variables that you try to access "out-of-scope"
The error message "" is not that helpful in any case, but if we change the 'verbose' setting to true in the ant build.properties file we get better information.
deployment tasksverbose = true
Thanks to Marc Kelderman, I can't wait until I get the next ORABPEL-10902!
Today we saw an ORA-600 when we added a diskgroup into our ASM instance... but that is a different story.

Trick Question - "good but expensive" vs "quick and dirty"
Your project manager has asked you to estimate the difference in cost between the "good but expensive", "quick and dirty" path or solution!
What should you do?
Steve McConnells answer in this blogentry is that you should ask three more questions:
1.How much it will cost to backfill the good path after you've already gone down the quick path?
2.If you choose the quick path now, how much does that slow down other work until you're able to retrofit the good path?
3.Is there a path that is quicker than the good path and that won't affect the rest of the system?
Steves Bottom line: When facing the prospect of taking on technical debt, be sure to generate more than two design options.

10.1.3.3.1 deployment
After deploying 10.1.3.3.1 I got the following startup errors (even if I followed the README to the point)
--------

I then tried to redeploy BPEL services by using the $ORACLE_HOME/config/deploy_bpel.sh script.
This script gave me the following error:
config>> ./deploy_bpel.sh

I then commeted out the workflow_javadoc.jar from bpel/system/services/install/ant-tasks/redeploy.xml, and then the redeploy works again!
