To Do

• Directory organisation (Tan, Alex)
  • Find out how to jar up the files.
  • Need a bat file and a shell script to run the program, that should set the classpath appropriately too.
  • Need subdirectories that are visible (after the program has been jar'd up) for modules, templates, and the xml hierarchy file (nettypes.xml)
• Modules (Alex, Raphael, Tan)
  • Put module classes in the right directory
  • Translation of flattened net id's back to real id's - do after subnets are sorted.
  • Alex's module - sort out the dialog box + stop program shutting down when close module.
  • Raphael's module - track down a bug, maybe add in finding path to unbounded.
  • Dnamaca module interface
• Extensibility (Michelle)
  • GSPN support - new Transition type and deal with insertion
  • Properties Box for Stochastic Transitions
  • Properties Box and menu/right-click item for whole net
  • Creating new net - provide type options, templates(?)
• Animator (Michelle)
  • Disable editing functions while animating
  • GSPN Animator code
• Subnets (Peter, Dan)
  • Get the components connected and working
  • Display and selection of the subnet instance
  • Interface issues - eg insert new subnet
• Editor (Dan)
  • Key binding/button for delete

Try to get code finished by (say) Wednesday.
People write up sections they've been working on - expand from Report 2. (not all bullet points!)
Reuse Petri net intro from Report 1, and summary of program (all together) from Report 2. Then go into details.
Need at least 3 specifically user-oriented sections:
* how to use the program
* how to write a module for the program
* how to extend the program
