Using Custom XML Mapped Statements in Activiti

Why use MyBatis XML based Mapped Statements to execute custom SQL queries? One useful case is when SQL statements have to be separated from Java code (so that for example SQL statements can be modified without modifying Java code). Another useful case is when working with complicated statements, as mentioned in the MyBatis documentation

"The annotations are a lot cleaner for simple statements, however, Java Annotations are both limited and messier for more complicated statements. Therefore, if you have to do anything complicated, you're better off with XML mapped statements."

Introduction to Actangular

The goal of Actangular is to provide developers using Activiti with reusable functionality that they can use in their own web applications. To achieve this goal, Actangular provides the following

• A set of AngularJS and Javascript modules that provide client side functionality
• Based on activiti-rest and Activiti's REST API provide extended functionality as needed (when appropriate will be contributed to activiti-rest project)
• A reference web application that demonstrates provided functionality
