Question
I'm making a Flex application to visualize the contents of an XML file in a tree, radial diagram, etc... I looked all over the internet and I can't find any useful tutorials or source code on how to do this. Most existing components on the web have licensing issues with them, so I prefer to write some sort of XML visualization algorithm from scratch.
An example I found was ScienceLogic. This is very similar to what I am trying to do.
Any help on how I can write an XML/data visualizer in Flex/Flash? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
EDIT: The visualizer should make something like a hierarchy diagram, like so:
SERVER 1
-Unit 1
-Unit 2
-Unit 3
-Unit 4
Think of a network with servers and routers and computers - and you want to put that in a web or diagram.
Solution
Try Flare. Take a look at their demo for radial layouts, that might be what you're looking for, though it's not as glamorous as ScienceLogic, it is free.
