SEQUENCE at JavaOne

Well, sort of. So this week I'm here at JavaOne, in fact I even presented this morning but that was work related and so not the point of this. Yesterday I was in the Concurrency Utilities in Practice TS-2136 talk, which was excellent, and I noticed that the look of one of the sequence diagrams shown on the screen was very familiar. I talked to the presenters afterwards and it turns out they'd use SEQUENCE to generate it. I think I'll have to get round to woking on the program again soon.

Beautiful tool! I have a small problem though, when I tried to run the --headless mode, it didn't work, and then I realized that it DOES work with the old LISP syntax, but not the new one :( Am I crazy or doing something wrong? Posted by: Otto on September 8, 2004 04:39 PM
Hi Alex, I am very happy to see you considering getting back to extending SEQUENCE! This is really a very nice tool! But it still needs some final touches like support for assync calls and robustness when dealing with large diagrams (when generating the png - maybe svg would scale better). It definetely should be made a top project in an open source repository like SourceForge or FreshMeat... Another suggestion would be to add a version number to the tool, and make it available in a Maven-compatible format (or push it to ibiblio). This would make it easier to integrate SEQUENCE with other applications, for example to create IDE/framework wrappers for it. Regards, Nascif Posted by: Nascif A.
