JGraphT Visualizations
via JGraph


THIS PAGE IS OUT OF DATE

Modern web browsers don't support applets directly, and JGraphT is dropping support for JGraph and replacing it with JGraphX. If you'd like to help with making this page work again, here is the relevant github issue.

Demo Applet

The following applet shows how a JGraphT graph can be visualized using JGraph. Try to play and drag around the vertices and edges to get the feel of it.

Note: Java 1.3 or above must be installed for this applet to work correctly.


Java 2 Standard Edition v 1.3 or above is required for this applet.
Download it from http://java.sun.com.
a JGraphT graph visualized using JGraph.

 

How it Works

It's very simple: the JGraphT library comes with an adapter that makes JGraphT graphs compatible with JGraph. To visualize a JGraphT graph you just need to initialize JGraph via that adapter.

Example code:

     // create a JGraphT graph
     ListenableGraph g = new ListenableDirectedGraph( DefaultEdge.class );

     // create a visualization using JGraph, via the adapter
      JGraph jgraph = new JGraph( new JGraphModelAdapter( g ) );

Is that all?!  Yes, that's all. Any modification now made to the graph g will automatically be reflected by the JGraph component.
