Layout ohne Öffnen von SyncCharts? (Alexander)

  • Beim Erstellen und Export nach SVG ohne Editor geht was schief, es fehlen umlaufende Linien von Elementen -> Erstellen eines Tickets für SyncCharts?

There seems to be something missing in the generated SVG code, possibly a GMF bug?

Branches & Clones in Git (msp)

  • we should learn how to use the specific advantages of Git
  • you can create clones of a repository
  • a clone in Git is similar to a private branch in svn, but much more convenient
  • mainline+remote repositories
  • you can choose where to push your commits, either to the mainline or to a clone
  • msp suggests that all students work on private clones or on their advisor's clone
  • master branches should be synchronized
  • should use branches to structure your own work
  • can create branches even for small short-term tasks
  • don't push experimental branches into mainline
  • msp will write some documentation about this topic by next week
  • need to think about how to wrap up old students' projects after they finished their studies
  • can send commits also via email

Demo: YAKINDU (ckru)

  • YAKINDU: Statechart validation tool
  • can extend YAKINDU with KSBasE and KIELER automatic layout
  • observation: states not aligned properly when using KLay layout. Dot layout works however.

Demo: Ptolemy importer (cds)

  • uses Xtend2 now
  • new implementation much quicker
  • matching heuristic automatically associates comments to model components only if there are no explicit associations
  • -> ticket: add option to (not) use comment matching heuristic if there are explicit associations (#1900)
  • msp: how about adding a comment control feature to the view management?
