Re: [swtchart-dev] swtchart release for 2020-06
|
Hi Bernd,
that sounds great. SWTChart has been migrated and extended in many
ways over the last years. Currently, I'm mentoring 2 GSoC students.
Have a look at their proposals here:
https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/projects/?sp-search=swtchart
SWTChart is structured in the following way:
org.eclipse.swtchart (Basic Chart Library)
org.eclipse.swtchart.extensions (Extensions: Scrollbars,
ChartSettings, Extended Legend*, ...)
org.eclipse.swtchart.export (Export Options)
* Run the Java Application example:
org.eclipse.swtchart.extensions.examples.charts.DemoChart
Probably, we will split the export bundle into .export.basic and
.export.extended soon, as it requires currently AWT, Apache Batik
and so on for the SVG export capabilities. The basic bundle shall
offer simple export options with no further dependencies.
* To join the simultaneous release train would be great and that is
the long-term plan. Unfortunately, I have thousands of issues on my
desk, Hence, I'm not sure if I have the time to sort out all issues
regarding the Simrel in time, see:
https://github.com/eclipse/swtchart/issues/111
* We are using the "develop" branch for the next release. The
version will be 0.13. I18N support has been also added, but need to
be maintained.
* The CI
"https://ci.eclipse.org/swtchart" pushes successful builds
here: download.eclipse.org/swtchart/integration/develop/repository.
Probably, we keep the builds on the CI server in the future as the
download server shall be not flooded with too many files. We will
keep the community updated.
* We try to keep the changes at a minimum. A few things need to be
improved though, but SWTChart is relatively stable. Frankly, I don't
have experience with API Baslines and all the stuff. Hence, help is
appreciated.
I hope this helps.
Best,
Philip

Hi,
The Trace Compass project has been using
org.swtchart for long time and SWTChart provided us with great
capabilities for drawing xy-charts in Trace Compasa. I
recently looked into migration to org.eclipse.swtchart for
Eclipse 2020-06 to be able to get latest fixes and
improvements (thanks a lot for that). We also have a
dependency to the Linux Tools project (pie charts), that
recently moved to org.eclipse.swtchart. So it makes sense to
migrate Trace Compass as well.
I was able to make the Trace Compass code
compile and run with the org.eclipse.swtchart release 0.12.0
after adjusting to the API changes from the original
org.swtchart code.
I have a few questions about the future
plans for org.eclipse.swtchart:
- Is org.eclipse.swtchart part of the
simultaneous release train? If yes, I can’t find a
corresponding .aggrcon file in
git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/simrel/org.eclipse.simrel.build.git
- What version will be released for
2020-06?
- Where can I find milestone builds to be
able to test early Trace Compass features using with the
latest SWTChart.
- The org.eclipse.swtchart project is still
in incubation and I’m wondering what is the API policy between
releases?
In advance thank you very much for your
reply.
Best Regards
Bernd
