I would like to provide two components: a graphical editor and a Maven plug-in. 'The Graphical Editor will offer live (WYSIWYG) preparation of a graphical presentation of the project by setting such properties as: - Type and subset of data, we want to present, - What part of the data is to be presented, - The method of presenting of each type of diagram nodes (that is, what attributes of the item will be displayed), and the general 'style' of the presentation. I would like to provide UML-like design. - The general layout algorithm - The positions of selected locked nodes – which we want to put in a fixed area. All other nodes will be positioned automatically. The schema of the diagram created by the editor will be saved to an XML file. Additionally the editor may be used as a graphical browser (explorer) of chosen aspects of the project. The editor will use the Prefuse library (http://prefuse.org).The Maven Plug-in (maven-graph-plugin) – will be using the XML file prepared by the Graphical Editor and the current state of project to prepare images in various graphic formats (JPG, TIFF, PNG and others supported by the Sun JAI library (http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jai/). The plug-in will be able to prepare the HTML <map> tag for the picture too (to create an active area on web page containing the image). The resulting file will be ready to use in the next Maven phases by Doxia or other documenting tool.
Does this mean we can export the graph of dependencies in a UML format? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
