The "SCXML/GSoC2010EclipsePluginProposal" page has been changed by guixl. http://wiki.apache.org/commons/SCXML/GSoC2010EclipsePluginProposal?action=diff&rev1=3&rev2=4 -------------------------------------------------- [[http://www.w3.org/TR/scxml/|State Chart XML]] is very useful to handler complex status transfer logic. [[http://commons.apache.org/scxml/|Commons SCXML]] is an implementation aimed at creating and maintaining a Java SCXML engine capable of executing a state machine defined using a SCXML document, while abstracting out the environment interfaces. Now,more and more developers use it to help handler complex program logic,but edit a State Chart XML is so boring and mistakable.If a SCXML file is really so huge and complex,it will become too difficult to maintain and refactor or to test its logic validity.For example,if a SCXML flow has more than 20 States,it is possible to form an dead loop due to developer's glitch. In fact, the archives of the Apache Commons SCXML user mailing list will show many queries asking for it over the years.Obviously, [[http://www.eclipse.org/|Eclipse]] is the most power and popular Integration Develop Environment for developers, if it supplies an editor or even debuger for State Chart XML, isn't it cool ? + In fact, an open-source Eclipse-based plugin that uses visual state chart editors and generates SCXML documents is much needed -- the archives of the Apache Commons user mailing list show many queries asking for it over the years. And SCXML commiters told me it is a good topic for a open source and GSoC endeavor. + This project aims to develop an [[http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/gmf/|GMF]] based Eclipse plunge-in visual editor which is capable of showing a graphical representation of the process model and allows for adding breakpoints to activities, variable modifications and managing the debugging process for SCXML.I have already done some work on both SCXML and Eclipse GMF,even i tried to implement a SCXML editor using GMF and got a little achievement,so i want to develop this editor with GMF and have enough confidence to finish it. - Usually,State Chart XML file will be running on a SCXML engine,such as our Commons SCXML,if some one only want to achieve the SCXML file's business logic,but do not want to or can not use some SCXML engine due to some reasons(for example,some guy want to run scxml on web page,but he can not find JavaScript SCXML engine, or some guys want to use SCXML to express his logic in Java,but he does not want to import so many jars),this tool can export SCXML file's logic to executeable Java,C++,JavaScript and python code which has the same state logic translation with the SCXML file. + Usually,State Chart XML file will be running on a SCXML engine,such as our Commons SCXML,if some one only want to achieve the SCXML file's business logic,but do not want to or can not use some SCXML engine due to some reasons(for example,some guy want to run scxml on web page,but he can not find JavaScript SCXML engine),this code generation module will leverage the Commons SCXML APIs and assume those jars are available. In my plan, i will implement Java,JavaScript,C++ and python support for it. So,I want to mainly complete the following funcitons: 1. Create a Eclipse plunge-in and GMF based Visual editor for SCXML. This editor can be used to add or edit State Chart Diagram by drap and drop operations, and user can modify State properties of SCXML in Eclipes property view. + 1. State Chart XML export function. State Chart Diagram can be saved as a SCXML file. 1. Implement debug function for the editor. This SCXML editor will integrate Apache Commons SCXML engine to run State Chart XML file, show context attributes and variables at the breakpoints.Implement step by step,state by state debug function. - 1. State Chart XML export function. State Chart Diagram can be saved as a SCXML file. - 1. Code generation function. This is a tentative job. In the future,this tool will can generate Java,C++,JavaScript and Python codes according to State Chart Diagram. But as we know,i have only more than two months to finish a GSoC project,so, i will hold this as a long term open source project under Apache,during this summer,if i have enough time,i will finish Java code generation job.In the short run, i will implement JavaScript,C++ and Python code generation jobs. + 1.
