Diagrama de actividad (nueva sintaxis)

La sintaxis anterior utilizada para los diagramas de actividad presentaba varias limitaciones y problemas de mantenimiento. Reconociendo estos inconvenientes, hemos introducido una sintaxis e implementación totalmente renovadas que no sólo son fáciles de usar, sino también más estables.

Ventajas de la nueva sintaxis

  • Sin dependencia de Graphviz: Al igual que con los diagramas de secuencia, la nueva sintaxis elimina la necesidad de instalar Graphviz, simplificando así el proceso de configuración.
  • Facilidad de mantenimiento: La * naturaleza intuitiva de la nueva sintaxis significa que es más fácil de manejar y mantener sus diagramas.

Transición a la Nueva Sintaxis

Mientras que continuaremos apoyando la sintaxis antigua para mantener la compatibilidad, animamos a los usuarios a migrar a la nueva sintaxis para aprovechar las características mejoradas y los beneficios que ofrece.

Haga el cambio hoy y experimente un proceso de diagramación más ágil y eficiente con la nueva sintaxis de diagrama de actividad.

Una Actividad simple

Las etiquetas de las actividades inician con un dos puntos (:) y terminan con un punto y coma (;).

Se puede aplicar formato a un texto usando sintaxis de WikiCreole.

Están implícitamente enlazados en el orden de su definición.
