Rahul Akolkar updated SCXML-116: -------------------------------- Fix Version/s: GSoC Set fix version to 'GSoC' (newly added version). > An Eclipse based visual editor and debugger for SCXML which can also generate > SCXML statechart to Java code > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SCXML-116 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCXML-116 > Project: Commons SCXML > Issue Type: New Feature > Environment: Eclipse plunge-in,GMF,Commons SCXML > Reporter: Gui Xunlong > Fix For: GSoC > > Original Estimate: 1344h > Remaining Estimate: 1344h > > I have been using Apache Commons SCXML Engine for more than two years,Now i > have an idea to improve it, and I wanted to post it and see if there would be > any interest in it in the Apache SCXML community. If possible, i want to hold > it as a GSoC(url:http://socghop.appspot.com/) open source project. > The basic idea of the project is to create a Eclipse based visual editor and > debugger for SCXML which can also generate SCXML statechart to Java code. > > State Chart XML (SCXML) is currently a Working Draft published by the World > Wide Web Consortium (W3C). SCXML provides a generic state-machine based > execution environment based on Harel State Tables. SCXML is a candidate for > the control language within multiple markup languages coming out of the > W3C.It is very useful to handler complex status transfer logic,but if a SCXML > file is really so huge and complex,it will become too difficult to maintain > and refactor or to test its logic validity. > > This project is to develop a Eclipse plunge-in visual editor which is capable > of showing a graphical representation of the process model and allows for > adding breakpoints to activities, variable modifications and managing the > debugging process for SCXML.I have already done some work on both SCXML and > Eclipse GMF,even i tried to implement a SCXML editor using GMF and got a > little achievement,so i want to develop this editor with GMF and have enough > confidence to finish it. > Usually,State Chart XML file will be running on a SCXML engine(for example, > our Apache Commons SCXML),if some one only want to achieve the SCXML file's > business logic,but do not want to or can not use some SCXML engine due to > licence problem etc,this tool can export SCXML file's logic to executeable > Java code which has the same state logic translation with the SCXML file. > > This is my mainly idea and Rahul Akolkar told me this is a good idea,but he > has another GSoC project to mentor already, so he can not mentor me, and he > suggested me come here to find some proper mentor. > So,if anyone has any questions or comments, or would be interested in > mentoring this project, please let me know,you can send me an Email, my mail > address is ustbco...@gmail.com.thanks. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
