Class GraphLayoutAlgGen

java.lang.Object
  |
  +--suvi.GraphLayoutAlgGen

All Implemented Interfaces:

GraphLayoutAlgGenConstants

public class GraphLayoutAlgGen

extends java.lang.Object

implements GraphLayoutAlgGenConstants

A generator, see [Czarnecki2000], for graph layout algorithms. The algorithm is specified using the constants in the GraphLayoutAlgGenConstants-interface.

In this context, a generator is a program that takes a higher-level specification of a complex component and produces its implementation. The generator logically separates the client of a component from the implementation details of the component.

Note that different algorithms use different attributes. If you need an algorithm that specifically considers certain attributes, such as an additional partial ordering relation, then you must generate an algorithm that takes such attributes into consideration. Also note that an algorithm can directly tell which attributes it actually uses. Attributes that are not used by an algorithm are normally simply ignored.
