| 37 | | = Development = |
| 38 | | We are using Eclipse OSGI projects/plugins as project format. The reason for this is to be able to export the whole framework either as a normal Jar or as an OSGI plugin, which allows you to easily use the framework within RCP applications. Actually, both distribution ways are the same, its always the same jar. |
| 39 | | |
| 40 | | To develop, you need both gnogno2go and gnogno2go-dependencies and Eclipse. |
| 41 | | |
| 42 | | Currently, much is missing or in a limbo state, because of the move to RDF2Go and to a slimmer architecture, but the code is getting cleaner every day. |

| 44 | | = FAQ = |
| 45 | | '''Q:How to automatically create GUIs using gnogno?''' |
| 46 | | |
| 47 | | A:GnoGno has automatic resource renderers. One is the RDFResourceRenderer in SWT. These components should interpret [http://www.w3.org/2005/04/fresnel-info/ fresnel] descriptions, but they don't do yet. The fresnel configuration has to be done on the level of !GnoFactories, its valid accross a whole application. Additionally, '''property ranges''' are read by some of the GUI components to correctly format values and set the correct datatype URIs in created statements. The Method [http://www.gnowsis.org/statisch/gnogno2go-0.8/javadoc/org/gnogno/gui/dataset/binder/AbstractPropertyToComponentBinder.html#getDatatype() getDatatype()] does this. |
