[kepler-dev] Model Visualisation

[R.P.Mciver@cs.cardiff.ac.uk]

Hey there,

I'm new to kepler development and this is my first message to the  
list, I'll try not to waste people's time with pointless questions!

I've been working on programatically defining workflow models, with  
varying degrees of success, primarily as a means of understanding more  
about how the kepler system works (and also how it interacts with  
ptolemy). This has proved an interesting and useful task, however I've  
been trying to implement a simple means of providing a visualisation  
of the models that my code has been generating, and it's here that  
I've ran into problems!

Is there a simple way to create an instance of whatever class it is  
that normally displays the workflow models within kepler and getting  
this to display my workflows?

I've tried using Configuration.openModel(myModel) to bring something  
up, but can only get this to work with the "runPanelConfiguration"  
from ptolemy, which doesn't give me what I want.

At the moment I can view my models by getting the code to save them to  
xml files and then loading them directly into kepler. However for want  
I would like to do later I would rather have the visualisation remain  
seperate.

Am I going about this in the right way? Or is there something I've  
missed about how to bring up a visualisation of a workflow model?

Thanks to anyone who can help!
Russell
