#93 Extend allowable constraints (feature request)
the following dependencies should be allowed in xProcess:
- a task to depend on itself, e.g. to create a task running for 10 days: END must be after FORECAST START offset 10 days
- a task to depend on another task twice, again to create a 10 day task:
- Task 2 START must be after Task 1 FORECAST END
- Task 2 END must be after Task 1 FORECAST END offset 10 days
Discussion of this feature is found on this wiki page: https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/xprocess/index.php?title=US106:_Improve_Constraint_scheduling
Please add comments to that page.
I have started the implementation of a more flexible scheduler that fully supports start-after-end, start-after-start and end-after-end constraints as well as the standard one supported by the current scheduler - start-after-end. As this is quite a complex change I am not releasing it as a beta yet, but it is possible to test the new scheduler by downloading the source. Contact me for more details.
