Using Smetana from Java not working (when downloading v8059 from MavenCentral)

asked Feb 18, 2021 in Question / help by anonymous

Hi folks,

I'm using Gradle to download PlantUML from MavenCentral, like so:

  implementation "net.sourceforge.plantuml:plantuml:8059"

8059 is the latest version I could find, it's from 2017, I think.

I'd like to use PlantUML without GraphViz, so I add the following line to my PlantUML text file:

  !pragma graphviz_dot smetana

However, that doesn't work when generating a PlantUML activity diagram from Java.

By the way, when I replace smetana with jdot, it works (but arrow heads are not rendered unfortunately).

Can you help me?

8059 is quite old.

You should use this one instead https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/net.sourceforge.plantuml/plantuml/1.2021.1
