JGraphX
=======

Note: JGraphX is not actively developed, nor do we actively follow the tag on Stack Overflow. However, we will consider well tested PRs relating to existing functionality. The issues tracker is closed on purpose. Do not submit issues to the mxGraph project that are related to this project, they will be closed.

We don't properly support Maven or publish to Maven Central. If that's an issue, use https://github.com/vlsi/jgraphx-publish

JGraphX is a Java Swing diagramming (graph visualisation) library licensed under the BSD license. Although, the package
names use that of 'mxGraph', this library is not called mxGraph. mxGraph is the JavaScript diagramming library - https://github.com/jgraph/mxgraph.

It was originally named JGraph through versions 1-5, this technically is version 6, but we changed the name to reflect
the fact that the entire codebase and API was rewritten from scratch.

JGraphX provides functionality for visualisation and interaction with node-edge graphs (not charts). Example
applications that you might write with it are a workflow editor, an organisational chart, a business process modelling
tool, a UML tool, an electronic circuit diagrammer, network/telecoms visualisation (you get the idea, things with
nodes and edges that connect those nodes, a mathematical graph).

JGraphX also includes functionality like XML stencils support, various import/export and layouting (automatically
node/edge positioning).

Each tag in github creates a downloadable file at https://github.com/jgraph/jgraphx/tags. Older versions are at
https://www.jgraph.com/jgraphdownload.html.

There is a user manual https://jgraph.github.io/mxgraph/docs/manual_javavis.html that explains the basic architecture.

There are various examples, https://github.com/jgraph/jgraphx/tree/master/examples/com/mxgraph/examples/swing, from
the usual HelloWorld to a more complete application example called GraphEditor.

There's also the API specifications at https://jgraph.github.io/mxgraph/java/docs/index.html

There is a 'jgraphx' tag on Stackoverflow - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/jgraphx, but please ensure
you understand the SO FAQ and posting guidelines prior to posting. To post on SO you must 1) have a _question_ ,
2) that question be _programming_ related and 3) use the 'jgraphx' tag.

JGraphX shares the changelog and version number of mxGraph, our JavaScript implementation of the same idea. This
is because many people use the Java API on the server with mxGraph, so the model APIs have to be identical on each
release. You have to filter the changelog, https://www.jgraph.com/mxchangelog.html for "Java" in the square brackets
at the end of each line to see the changes that only apply to Java.
