The simplest way to import Petri net

Petri4J is a lightweight java library to import Petri nets into your project/application. The library consists of basic structure and objects to represent general definition of Petri nets. It provides import function with support of several popular formats like Petriflow and JSON format.

The library is available on Maven Central repository:

<dependency>

</dependency>

Or you can download release package from here.

To import your Petri net into application simply retrieve parser for desired format and load the file with the net.

ParserFactory factory = ParserFactory.getInstance();
Parser parser = factory.getParser(ParsingFormat.PETRIFLOW);
Net net = parser.parse("my-petri-net.xml");

Net object is loaded and constructed synchronously. Only the actual petri net is read from the loaded format.
