    Ari Maniatis commented on CAY-762:
    ----------------------------------

    A little Googling has revealed that this product was based on a proprietary graphing engine (jgraph) and the JDOGenie product itself appears abandoned. It was a commercial product at some point. So not specifically much use here for us. We still need a graphing library to form the basis of this work. jgraph is proprietary and not suitable.

    > Key: CAY-762
    > URL: https://issues.apache.org/cayenne/browse/CAY-762
    > Project: Cayenne
    > Issue Type: New Feature
    > Components: CayenneModeler GUI
    > Affects Versions: 3.0
    > Reporter: Ahmed Mohombe
    > Assignee: Andrus Adamchik
    >
    > Please add an ER Diagram to the Cayenne Modeler. This is the feature that I miss the most from WebObjects.
    > For start it would be even enough to have an ER Diagram View (so no interactive activities) - just display and layout of entities.
    > I think this would help allot and would increase the productivity with CM - most people think visually.
    > I don't think that it would be complicated to implement, the most complicated question to answer is what graph library is allowed to use, due to the restrictive "license compatibility" of the Apache license.
    > Thanks in advance,
    > Ahmed.
