Re: [nebula-dev] nebula gantt-chart

Hello Ralf,

What classes are you interested in extending, and in what way? Usually I declare classes final for a reason as they contain internal calculations which are not suitable to be overridden / implemented in a different way, but there's always the option of moving some of that to abstract levels.

If you elaborate I can give you better feedback on reasoning.

Regards,
Emil

Hi all,

 

As I wrote in a mail some time ago I want to use the nebula gantt-chart in a project. Unfortunately the Gantt-Chart implementation has some restrictions which prevent me from using the nebula gantt-chart in the project without modifying the source of the nebula Gantt-Chart itself (e.g. the GanttEvent class).

I want to use the nebula Gantt-Chart "as is" and add the modifications I need as e.g. subclasses, but this is not possible. Now my question is if it is possible that I change some classes of the Gantt-Chart to be more extendable and these changes will be included in the nebula gantt-chart in a version in the future (if the changes are approved of course…)?

 

It would be really nice if I could do these extensions to the nebula Gantt-Chart, and I think this will make the Gantt-Chart more flexible for use in other applications as well.

 

Thanks and continue the great work!

 

Ralf
