Graphiti editor
Graphiti is a generic graph editor under BSD license created by IETR/INSA Rennes shipped as an Eclipse plug-in. If you do not know what Eclipse is, please read the following section; otherwise you can just skip to the "Update site" section.
Eclipse
Eclipse is an extensible platform programmed in Java that comes with editors for several languages: C/C++, Java, Python, OCaml, etc. Graphiti is compatible with the 3.4 and upward versions of Eclipse.
You can download Eclipse here: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/
Depending on your needs, you may download the Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers package, the Eclipse IDE for Java Developers package, or yet another package.
Extract Eclipse somewhere, like /opt or C:\ for instance.
To run Eclipse and Graphiti, you will need a Java Runtime Environment, such as Sun's JRE.
We recommend that you use Sun's JRE on Linux too, as we have had problems with gcj on Linux. Be sure to add Sun's JRE to the PATH before other folders if you want it to be found rather than exising JREs.
Update Site
To install Graphiti, you need to add the following site to the Eclipse Software Update Manager: http://graphiti-editor.sourceforge.net/eclipse
To do that, go to Help > Install New Software... Click Add... to add an update site, set its name (e.g. Graphiti) and its url to http://graphiti-editor.sourceforge.net/eclipse
Once this is done, select the Graphiti editor feature in the Graphiti site, click Next, and Finish. At some point Eclipse will ask you if you really want to install an unverified feature, just accept and restart Eclipse.
