Next-generation yFiles for Java (Swing)

Java 8
or higher

Beginning with version 3.0, the yFiles for Java (Swing) diagramming library features a brand-new, modern API which requires Java 8. This API is mature and provides many new features that are not available out-of-the-box in the 2.x line. It also provides the functionality of the ySVG, yExport and yBPMN package as source code application, therefore the extension packages are no longer required.

We recommend to start development with the next-generation yFiles for Java in new Java Swing projects.
Especially in projects that don't need to support legacy Java versions before Java 8, this is the recommended way to realize your application's diagram visualization part.

Features

The yFiles BPMN extension package enhances your yFiles-powered application with:

  • A specialized editor pane that provides out-of-the-box support for intuitive working with BPMN diagrams.
  • High-quality symbols for BPMN shapes that let your BPMN 2.0 diagrams shine.
  • A palette element to hold the BPMN symbols that provides easy drag'n'drop support.
  • A specialized automatic layout algorithm that can process BPMN diagrams with or without pools. It calculates a clear representation for diagrams both from scratch or using a given arrangement as sketch.

Showcase Application

The yFiles BPMN extension package comes with the full source code of the following demo application.

The BPMN Editor demo application can be used to create, view, and lay out business process diagrams that adhere to the Business Process Model and Notation.

» Launch demo

The yFiles online demos are made with the yFiles for HTML library to present the yFiles functionality right in your HTML5-capable browser.
The corresponding yFiles for Java 2.x-based demo application that ships with the extension package presents similar functionality.
