*'''bundle: org.eclipse.gef4.dot.examples'''

The examples provided by [[#Examples (undeployed)|Examples]] demonstrate how to use the API provided by the [[GEF/GEF4/DOT#DOT|DOT]] module of [[GEF/GEF4/DOT|GEF4 DOT]]. They are not deployed on our update-sites and have to checked out in source (<code>org.eclipse.gef4.dot.examples</code>) from our [http://git.eclipse.org/c/gef/org.eclipse.gef4.git/ GEF4 Git repository]. In order to have the example plug-in compile properly, all other required GEF4 bundles will either have to be installed (in a matching version) into your running eclipse platform (if this is used as target), added to a target definition (the target definitions contained in <code>org.eclipse.gef4.target</code> may be augmented for this purpose), or checked out in source as well (see [[GEF/Contributor Guide | GEF Project Contributor Guide]] for details on how to obtain the sources and setup your workspace). Having prepared everything as outlined before, the standalone example might easily be started by launching one of the following example classes from <code>org.eclipse.gef4.dot.examples</code> via the context menu ('Run As' -> 'Java Application').

==== DotImportExample ====
*'''class [http://git.eclipse.org/c/gef/org.eclipse.gef4.git/tree/org.eclipse.gef4.dot.examples/src/org/eclipse/gef4/dot/examples/DotImportExample.java org.eclipse.gef4.dot.examples.DotImportExample]'''

The <code>DotImportExample</code> demonstrates how a [[GEF/GEF4/Graph#Graph, Node, Edge|Graph]] with [[GEF/GEF4/DOT#DotProperties|DotProperties]] can be constructed from [http://www.graphviz.org/doc/info/lang.html DOT] input using [[GEF/GEF4/DOT#DotImport|DotImport]].

==== DotExportExample ====
*'''class [http://git.eclipse.org/c/gef/org.eclipse.gef4.git/tree/org.eclipse.gef4.dot.examples/src/org/eclipse/gef4/dot/examples/DotExportExample.java org.eclipse.gef4.dot.examples.DotExportExample]'''

The <code>DotExportExample</code> demonstrates how a [[GEF/GEF4/Graph#Graph, Node, Edge|Graph]] with [[GEF/GEF4/DOT#DotProperties|DotProperties]] can be serialized into [http://www.graphviz.org/doc/info/lang.html DOT] using [[GEF/GEF4/DOT#DotExport|DotExport]].

==== DotLayoutExample ====
*'''class [http://git.eclipse.org/c/gef/org.eclipse.gef4.git/tree/org.eclipse.gef4.dot.examples/src/org/eclipse/gef4/dot/examples/DotLayoutExample.java org.eclipse.gef4.dot.examples.DotLayoutExample]'''

The <code>DotLayoutExample</code> is [[GEF/GEF4/Zest|GEF4 Zest]]-based example that demonstrates how the DOT native executable can be used to layout a [[GEF/GEF4/Graph#Graph|Graph]] using [[GEF/GEF4/DOT#DotImport|DotImport]], [[GEF/GEF4/DOT#DotExport|DotExport]], [[GEF/GEF4/DOT#DotExecutableUtils|DotExecutableUtils]], and [[GEF/GEF4/DOT#DotAttributes|DotAttributes]].
