This bid request specifies a third party control. Feel free to propose alternatives (as long as they are redistributable run time royalty free).
Using Lassalle Technologies AddFlow control (demo version with nag screens is available on their website):
1) App that lets user build a flow diagram with a single input node, a single output node, and unlimited multiple paths in between. User can save diagrams and open existing diagrams.
2) User can assign name to each shape in the format "Cx" where x is any real integer. shape names do NOT have to be unique (eg can have multiple C22)
3) User can assign a True or False Value to any shape
4) pushing button1 will create and show a text representation of the Boolean math equation representing all paths from input to output. eg "(C1 AND C2) OR C5"
5) Pushing button2 will solve the Boolean equation (answer will be simply True or False
IMPORTANT: equation should be solved (button2) as a single boolean expression ... no looping. Reason is that this has to be FAST as possible.
See attached image in rtf file for a simple example diagram. Actual diagrams can and will be MUCH larger with MANY more paths.
