Hello, I've been writing a task management app, and I want it to be able to handle PERT, CPM, WBS data, etc. Take some user-defined data, run algorithms and return results, which can then be displayed bu GUI, e.g. Gnome Planner.
While sitting in boring lectures I already started writing and planning algorithms, and then I realized: what if there's a standard library for these utilities, and then writing software for project management is much easier and avoid all the math and algorithms? Before I proceed and implement the algorithms in C/C++, I'd like to know: is there a standard tool for that? As far as I know, all programs implement their own code for that, including Planner. Does Planner have a document explaining the algorithms it uses, or some freely available resource on which it bases the code? And is there's a free software library for these things? If not, I'll write one. It's a waste of time for GTG, Planner and many others to write their own widgets and algorithms, since many things are common (dependency graphs, gantt, etc.) to many tools and by making the low-level part available out of the box, writing this kind of software will require much less wheel reinvention. regards, Anatoly _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
