Re: [gef-dev] Latest Zest for GEF-classic
|
Hi Alois!
Sorry for the late reply, I was hoping to find some time to look into
this, but I really can't assess which option would be better here, since
there seem to be quite a few changes to the Zest code since then.
Also, as a heads up, the Zest 2 changes introduced a dependency on
Xtext, which back then, if I remember correctly, was one of the reasons
to release it (only) as part of GEF4, which made major changes anyway.
Cheers,
Fabian

Hi Fabian,
I'm not a Zest user but I find anything that makes GEF Classic better good. Do you think we should backport these changes to GEF Classic's version of ZEST or
upgrade GEF Classic's version of ZEST to the one you linked to?
Cheers,
Alois

Hi all!
Triggered by the recent activity in GEF-classic and the wiki.eclipse.org
migration I wanted to mention that the original version of Zest 2 (which
added pruned subgraph rendering, new layout algorithms, Graphviz DOT
support and word cloud visualization) was originally developed for the
GEF3/classic code base. So if there is interest in the community, it
should be possible to integrate that into GEF-classic.
Some time ago I saved that last GEF3-based state of Zest in
https://github.com/fsteeg/zest, which seems to correspond to [1] in the
gef repo. The latest documentation for that version seems to be here:
https://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php?title=Zest&oldid=319996
https://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php?title=Zest/DOT&oldid=330938
(I can't find the original page for the word cloud component, see [2].)
I enabled notifications for the wiki migration issue [3] and will try to
at least preserve that documentation.
Cheers,
Fabian
