Chapter 6 Process Languages Reference Guide

About this document

This document describes the structure and contents of process languages in a BPM. This guide is a reference for working with any PowerDesigner supported process language. It provides a global overview of the use of a process language regardless of its characteristics.

Before you begin

You should never modify a process language shipped with PowerDesigner. Always create new process languages from the original files. The process language is saved in a file with the .XPL extension.

Modifications to a process language can change the way PowerDesigner functions, especially when generating objects. You should ensure that you thoroughly test generated objects.

For more information on creating a new process language that is a copy of an existing process language, see section Creating a new resource file, in chapter The Resource Editor in the General Features Guide .
