The configuration mechanism is extremely flexible. You can build GUI's in many ways. I suggest you look over the simple ones in the ptolemy/configs directory. For example, runConfiguration.xml offers no user interface: it just runs a model. runPanelConfiguration.xml offers a run control panel and an HTML viewer for docs, but no vergil block diagram editor. vergilConfigurationPtiny.xml offers a subset of the domains and actor libraries.
Hope this helps. Edward At 03:15 PM 5/16/2002 +0200, Benoît Masson wrote: >Hi, >We are actually working on a possible integration of Ptolemy II(consider >Vergil here) in our own GUI.
