drawing SDL diagrams using inkscape
Dear all,
I would like to thank you in advance for any advice you might give me. I am currently a student at MSc level in computing. For my final project, I have to implement a program which is able to accept CIF files and display SDL-GR diagrams on the screen. I have successfully managed to produce a lexer, parser, Abstract Syntax Tree and a tree walker in java environment. I have written a java test rig which when is run, accepts input CIF text and produces AST then tree walker displays flat version of the tree. Now for the final part of the project, I need some utility that will turn the abstract syntax tree into concrete graphical syntax for SDL. I could embed some java code within tree walker and use java 2D to display the symbols and their connections. However, their coordination and some other issues seems to be a daunting task in my opinion as I do not have great experience of programming and have just one month to the deadline of my project. I have been advised that the Inkscape tool could be an option for the purpose of my project. Would you suggest the Inkscape tool? Can I draw SDL diagrams with Inkscape using command line and writing codes? If yes, would you please give me some advice?
Thank you a million time.
Best regards,
A. Azimi

Since you are already on Java - did you look at the Batik project?
It enables you to save anything you do in Java2D as SVG elements. Once you have it in SVG you can import it in Inkscape and do some finishing/changes.
Don't know if this is an option,
