I made a fresh new version of CPN Tools, version 4.0.1. The change over 4.0.0 is a freshly compiled simulator compiled with the newest SML/NJ (version 110.78) and the newest version of Cygwin. This should hopefully remove problems with newer versions of Windows (except they are still, even with the OS X aspiring Windows 10 […]
Note: This is just a partial post. It has been hiding in my posting queue for more than a year, and I finally decided to just publish it as is, as it is highly unlikely I’ll finish it. This is the last part on CPN Tools 4, at least for the time being. Here, I’ll […]

In this part we look at more advanced communication. Previous parts assume little knowledge of the inner workings of CPN Tools, and allow you to make extensions almost as if you wrote regular Java programs. Lying under all the abstractions is a very versatile communication protocol, which allows very elaborate extensions. This part gives an […]

This part of the introduction to CPN Tools extensions is by far the more fun one. It deals with graphics and callbacks. It makes it possible to draw graphics directly in CPN Tools from an extension and to make hooks models can use to do that. This in essence is a higher-level version of Mimic/CPN […]

CPN Tools has supported timed models almost since the first releases. Starting with version 3, we introduced models where we allowed the time stamp to be a real value, making it simpler to make simulation-based analysis. CPN Tools allows choosing time stamps from an interval but in a manner that still allows state-space analysis. Time […]
