Batik and dSVG
Hello,
I am writing in the name of group of students. We would like to try to
move Batik on mobile platform. Moreover we would like to add dSVG
standard support to it. Are there any projects already working on this?
Can we count on your help and support?
Best regards,
Tomasz

Thank you for your help.
Let me just add that the main reason why we are trying to combine
dSvg with mobility is that we would like to create a client
application on any mobile device (with java support) with scalable
user interface. dSVG has all the functionality we have been looking
for : buttons, text boxes and so on. And it's svg, so we can easily
resize it to any screen resolution.
I do agree that the biggest issue is Javascript. Rhino could be a
good start but it doesn't work with dSVG.
And again, I really appreciate your comment
Best regards,
Tomasz

org.apache.batik.parser (I normally drop org.apache just to make
it easier on the hands).

Well the two classes of interest are batik.parser.PathParser
and batik.parser.PathHandler (there is also a 'DefaultPathHandler').
You give your String/Reader to the Parser and it will call methods
on the handler as it parses the path.

Thomas,
Are you talking about the class or the interface :
org.apache.batik.css.parser Class Parser or org.apache.batik.parser
Interface Parser ?
I will look for example by the batik project. Just by loooking the API,
I have no clue how to use the methods.
Thanks,
Alice

I would strongly suggest that you read the relevant sections of
the SVG specification (in this case 8.3.1)* if you are implementing a
translator. You might also consider using the "micro parsers" from
Batik to parse this data for you (batik.parser package).

[*] The command letter can be eliminated on subsequent commands if the
same command is used multiple times in a row (e.g., you can drop
the second "L" in "M 100 200 L 200 100 L -100 -200" and use "M 100
200 L 200 100 -100 -200" instead).
This means that the next command is also a 'c' not an 'l'.

Qustion about SVG
Posted by Alice Mello <me...@media.mit.edu>.
Hello all,
I wish you all a great holiday and Happy New Year!!!
My quick question is:
Given the part of a path data below, I would to know how to interpret
the fourth point after the "c". I imagine that after the triple cx1,y1
x2,y2 x,y, all the other points are regular Line to (l) points until the
next c appear. Is that correct?
I am implementing a translator. I need to read a SVG image and convert
it to my own internal data structure.
Thank you,
Alice

While the project might be interesting, it seems to have been
dead since the middle of last year. TinyLine would seem to be a
better bet, although it's cost, you might get a discount/donation
since you are education.
http://www.tinyline.com/
One problem is that dSVG implies JavaScript I think and
tinyline won't have that (in fact I'm not sure Rhino - our
Java based JavaScript engine will even run on J2ME anymore).
Anyway, good luck in what ever approach you take!

This will be difficult as Batik has a number of fairly deep
dependencies on Java 2. Which is generally not available in
mobile. There are some Java 2 platforms available on mobile
sets (Win CE for example) but unless you target this I suspect
this would make the project a non-starter.

There is a standard for dSVG? Is this the 'widget' stuff from
Corel? Whatever it is, I'm not aware of anyone working on "dSVG"
(but I'm sure there is lots of stuff that happens with Batik that
I know nothing of).
> Can we count on your help and support?
I am always willing to answer questions and try and provide
direction, however as I stated above there may be some rather
deep technical difficulties in moving Batik to a mobile Java
platform.
