Re: [henshin-dev] Graphical syntax for TUs

In case of direct recursion a unit is listed in its subUnit compartment like any other unit. This does not require any special treatment. A visual indication of recursion would be optional, since unit names are required to be unique.

I wonder how this suits for recursive nestings of units (and related parameter mappings)?!

Hi Christian,

look very nice. However I started to think about the ParameterMappings and ended up with a quite different approach for visualizing units. I am not sure if this can be done with GMF or maybe I overlooked some important implications. I just wanted to share my ideas, so here they are :)
The basic idea is, that the ParameterMappings inside a unit form a net structure, whereas the structure of the subUnits is a trivial list. To allow free arrangement of a flat list structure requires more graphical elements than actual model elements. In a way this corrupts the premiss one wishes to have, when it comes to visualizing the ParameterMappings. To avoid ending up with a cluttered mashup of two graph-like structures, I vertically aligned the subUnits. On the one hand this clarifies how the subUnits relate to each other. On the other hand this defines a horizontally aligned area for each unit which allows free arranging of its parameters. I think the result is relatively clear and concise.

Regards,
Gregor

Hi Christian,

looks very nice.

One comment: The decision node in the Independent Unit may be removed.
Moreover, since Indepenent Units have no starting point at all, the
start and the end activity may also be removed.

I wonder if you already have a syntax in mind according parameter mappings?!

Regards, Stefan

PS: I need some time to read (and answer) the rest of the 15 unread
Henshin mails in my inbox since there is a lot of teaching stuff waiting
as well.

Hi,

I attached a screenshot of the current syntax for Independent,
Sequential and PriorityUnit. What do you think?

Cheers,
Christian
