How is 'Model.metaInfo' field used in Activiti?

[jonvargas]

Hi.

I was reviewing Model class. How is its "metaInfo" property being used? It as a setter and getter.

http://activiti.org/javadocs/org/activiti/engine/repository/Model.html#getMetaInfo()

Can I use it for my own purposes? Could it also be defined in the BPMN XML model?

Thanks.

It is used in Explorer to set stuff like name, description, etc.

If you're not using Explorer, you can put in there whatever you want.
