Description Joshua Sandusky 2006-08-03 23:20:48 UTC 
The bpel mapper should prevent certain links from being connected if they are
linking incompatible types.

We need some basic mechanism for type-checking.
Comment 1 Joshua Sandusky 2006-08-03 23:21:49 UTC 
It would be nice to have a feature that verifies that a mapping is valid.

(Mike Frisino) Context aware connections - since BPEL mandates that mappings be
"type valid", it seems there is some opportunity to assist author in creating a
valid as opposed to an invalid mapping. For example in simplest demo situation
it is easy to create an invalid connection between a Message part on left side
and a Variable on the right side. If mapper is aware of type mismatch it could
perhaps hightlight (see find usages highlinging in XML schema, or some other HIE
approved style) valid connection targets for a given left side source.
Comment 2 Joshua Sandusky 2006-09-06 01:21:35 UTC 
One suggestion, from Malkit, is to have type-checking provide some kind of
guidance while the user is dragging. For example, as the user drags an element
from the source tree to the canvas, perhaps all the destination elements that
match the type of the drag element can be highlighted in the destination tree.

Comment 7 Joshua Sandusky 2006-09-12 21:42:26 UTC 
Issues 84076 and 84649 describe two different aspects of mapper type-checking.
Both of these sub-issues need to be addressed so that mapper type-checking is
supported.
