Workflow visual editor/viewer


Benoit Theunissen (1611) | asked Oct 01 '08, 10:55 a.m.
Hi,

I would like to develop a view in order to display Workflows from a process template as flow chart or a graph.

Now, the workflow editor is perfect for declaring workflow but is not really simple to understand and follow a workflow already created.

This view will provide a better read of workflows.

Do you know if any jazz/RTC team will work on that idea ?
I saw they are Workitem about workflow editor but this is about web UI.

Can you give me some indication ?
(Jazz/RTC Extension points, Graph Visualizing plugin existing, ...)

Thanks

I am not aware of any plans in this direction.

You would probably need to rely on internal API to get to all necessary
workflow information. Take a look at IWorkItemCommon to find some public
entry points.

For the visualizing part, you may want to take a look at GEF/Draw2d.

Beniot,

Sounds like a nice idea - did you (or anyone else) pursue this ?

Regards,
