火烧径-make life easier

一是界面的乱码，在File->Global Preferences->Fonts选项卡里面，选择相应的中文字体（我选新宋体，12）就可以了。

二是显示数据库里面的内容乱码。以MySQL为例，只需要在设置Alias的时候，这样设置URL:jdbc:mysql://server1/test?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=EUC_CN

传说中看到peacock会给你带来好运哦。

实际上，还可以直接在XSL文件中设置结果树的encoding，就是设置<xsl:output>元素的encoding属性。不过transformer的output属性的优先级高于<xsl:output>的优先级。

Yes. You can set a limit (both on process and activity), and you'll be informed if it expires.

Additionally XPDL specification defines deadlines, which are implemented too.

See (for limit example): test-JavaScript.xpdl or test-BeanShell.xpdl.
For deadlines: deadlineexamples.xpdl.

hope this helps

Who runs the Shark project？

The Enhydra Shark project is mainly driven/sponsored by "Together Teaml飉ungen" in Austria, developed by great guys and girls in "Together Teamsolutions" in Belgrade/Serbia plus a lot of help from the community/other companies (like OpenWide) and has the goal to create a complete WfMC/OMG compliant open source workflow engine framework including a set of standard implementations for all plugin APIs and wrappers (like Corba,...).

Different users/developers from the community are already using the flexibility of Shark to provide adapters for other environments like EJBs.

Webservice wrappers EJB session beans APIs will follow.

We are currently also thinking about a .NET port...

The architecture of Shark corresponds to the goals defined by the "Workflow Working Group" of ObjectWeb (www.objectweb.org).

The final vision is to provide a de-facto standard implementation of WfMC/OMG specifications based on principals of Objectweb for open source middleware (LGPL, standards compliant, commercially usable, flexible component architecture, adoptability to different environments, integration with other ObjectWeb technologies,...).

Shark will be included into commercial products of Together Teaml飉ungen but of course the engine/framework itself will stay LGPL on objectweb.org.

Hope that helps.

Greetings.
