Development environment


This is a short description of directories and files that are used by Ge, and what files are
generated.

File types

Ge reads graph files and save graph files in the directory $pwrp_pop.

A graph is saved as a file of type .pwg. A subgraph is also saved as a .pwg-file, that is used
when the subgraph is edited, but it is also saved as a .pwsg-file. It is the .pwsg-file that
is loaded when you create instances of the subgraph.

If you export the graph as a java application (frame) you create a .java-file with the name
specified as java name.

If you export the graph as a java applet, a java-file is created with the name stated as
java name with the suffix _A, e.g. Oversikg_A.java. Furthermore a html files is created with
the class name as name.

Setup-files

Ge uses two setup files, one for the color palette, and one for the subgraphs palette.

Color palette

If you want to modify the colors in the color palette, this is possible by creating av file
with the name ge_colors.dat. This should contain the rgb-codes for the colors in the palette.
There is a template in ...

Subgraph palette

The subgraph palette contains a collection of fix menus and subgraphs, and the folder Local
that displayes the subgraphs and images in $pwrp_pop. Most of the fix menus and subgraphs are
configured in the file pwr_ge_setup.dat. This file is common for all projects but can be modified
by the system manager.
