| Re: [graphiti-dev] What are the future plans for the Graphiti project? |

Petya, Currently the Graphiti planning for the Kepler release is not yet finished. I published a first draft version on our project plan at
http://www.eclipse.org/graphiti/projectPlans/ProjectPlanKepler.xml. Unfortunatly I just noticed that it does not appear from our project plan link, although the metadata link is
updated. I will contact Eclipse to check that. A short summary of the current planning state is that we would like to leave incubation with Eclipse Kepler and release a 1.0.0 version of Graphiti. But there are still some issues we need to tangle before: layouting
while zooming in diagrams is one of the things, another that just appeared and might cause need to restructure some plugins is support for e4 RCPs. The latter might also tangle our dependencies to GEF which plans a GEF 4 release, that might bring in larger
changes. Before leaving incubation these things should be clarified and/or fixed. But currently we are not sure if we can handle all these things until June, so we still might have the need to provide a 0.10.0 incubation version.
I hope we can clarify the pending issues over the coming weeks. Just for my understanding: do you need a non-incubation version of Graphiti to become an official part of WTP? (I’m asking because we don’t have such a limitation in Modeling.) Do you have a fallback option, in case we
cannot leave incubation? Michael From: graphiti-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:graphiti-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx]
On Behalf Of Sabeva, Petya Hi all, Since the Graphiti project is still in incubation phase and because the JPA Diagram Editor is based on Graphiti, I am wondering when can we expect, the Graphiti project to become in mature phase? I am asking because the
target of the JPA Diagram Editor is to become an official part of the eclipse WTP distribution at the end of the Kepler release and I want to know as early as possible whether this is feasible or not. Thanks in advance, Petya |
