activiti5 开发

你们在开发过程，能够参考不少网上的案例，说到集成开发，其实能够直接参考activiti提供给咱们的activiti-rest-5.18.0，这个jar原本是提供rest接口，你们在开发过程若是想使用什么api其实能够直接参考这个jar的源码，基本都提供了，很方便也不用去看什么代码。

在集成的时候，可能须要activiti-diagram-rest-5.18.0 这个jar是给js生成流程图的接口，你们若是没有使用diagram-viewer这个作流程图，能够不须要引入。

还有在集成modeler的时候activiti-modeler-5.18.0只要这个jar便可，这个jar提供了modeler的保存和查询接口。

顺便说一下，5.18版本的modeler支持了ie8可是在保存的时候可能会出现错误。

跟踪接口发现是在activiti-modeler-5.18.0的jar中保存接口出错，实际上是在保存svg_xml解析生成图片的时候犹豫ie8生成的xml字符串不对出错。其实这里能够不须要svg_xml生成图片注释掉，并且这里使用了batik-codec-1.7生成图片，其实能够不须要。

      final byte[] result = outStream.toByteArray();

    } catch (Exception e) {
      LOGGER.error("Error saving model", e);
      throw new ActivitiException("Error saving model", e);

}

这样就是在保存modeler以后不会再数据库生成图片的资源，不过这里推荐一种，就是日常用model生成的json部署的时候使用bpmn的生成图片方法activiti-image-generator-5.18.0 这样既能够不用引入batik的jar，也能够使用activiti的jar便可，并且和流程定义的生成图是同样。
