Can Gedae export to HTML (for example - for peer level reviews without using an extra license)?
Discussion
Gedae flow graph model provides a very useful way of viewing an application.
We realize this way of viewing an application can be useful both to the
application developer and to those who are not using Gedae but also wish to
understand the application. An autodocumentation utility is being developed
that will generate a report for an application.
Solution and Work Around
The autodocumentation utility will be able to generate a report that can
be published on the World Wide Web or edited and printed in a word processor.
The report will include images of all graphs and subgraphs, a listing of
user-made primitive code, and images of tables and figures generated by
the application. In its current incarnation, the utility produces a Rich Text
Format (RTF) document. The utility will be extended to also create HTML before
it is included in a Gedae release.
A utility is included in the current version of Gedae that allows you to
print (or generate postscript documents) flow graphs, tables, and figures
generated by Gedae. As a work around, the user could print out the flow
graph and all applicable tables and use this for an off line review.
Future Plans
The autodocumentation utility will be introduced in 2001 and will be able to generate both HTML and RTF documents.
