We will be adding both a tree layout and a hierarchical layout to the next
release of GEF. Just letting you know so you can either a) contribute or b)
stop working on the layout portions and wait patiently ;-)

Randy -
The layout algorithm I use can be obtained from the source:
http://www.bonevich.com/boneclipse-cvsgraph/xref/com/bonevic h/eclipse/cvsgraph/editors/CvsGraphLayout.html
Pretty simple recursive algorithm. It still needs a bit of work (does
not layout correctly if child nodes are thinner than parent nodes), but
I would be happy to contribute the idea or others to GEF. I would love
to develop a layout that centers the versions of each branch in their
own column:
1
|
|
1.2
| \
| \
1.3 1.2.2
| |
| |
1.4 1.2.2.1
etc. I think it can be done as a special case of my simple algorithm,
but needs tracking of multiple columns so they do not end up overlapping.
The convergence lines mark CVS merge activity via appropriately tagged
versions. So, say you merged 1.3.2.2 into 1.5 and committed the merged
code as version 1.6. If you tagged version 1.6 as 'Merge_frombranch2'
and tagged version 1.3.2.2 as 'Source_frombranch2', cvsgraph builds the
connection model and editpart for you. I plan to make this more
configurable in the future.

That is a really cool idea. I was starting to think in terms of
splitting it into a core and CVS implementation, but an extension-point
introduced factory might be easier. I still would need to abstract a
lot of the CVS-specific stuff out of the editparts and the model
objects, but if I can isolate all that into a (few) factory object(s)
that could readily be swapped for another implementation... cool.
But then there is the name I already chose: cvsgraph. Bummer of a birth
mark.
Unfortunately, I have little or no experience with version control
systems other than CVS and ClearCase UCM (cannot get more polar opposite
than those two!). I want to play around with Perforce and PVCS, so
maybe this would be a good opportunity!
Thanx for the invaluable feedback, Gunnar!
