XML Area Tree and Logic Tree renderer for FOP

["Giannetti, Fabio" <Fa...@hplb.hpl.hp.com>]

Hi,
	I have developed a new XML Renderer that produces a precise
reproduction of the area tree. Each element has all the information related
to absoulte position inside the page, dimensions, font status, color and so
on ....
I use this new output to create a consistent preview in FOA. The new XML
renderer generates also a logic tree that provides a representation of the
FOs responsible for the generation of the rendered areas.
I'd like to see it commit and I will take care to make any modification due
to the area-tree modification process. I will made also FOA opens-source
very soon, so I hope that the relationships between FOA and FOP will became
closer.
In the attached file there are all the modified classes from FOP 0.20.1 with
a difference file.

								Thank you in
advance
	
Fabio

Hi Fabio,

With recent changes the area tree and the way that renderers handle the
area tree has changed quite a bit.
In the current cvs I am working on the area tree and the xml rendering
output. The output is written in such a way that the xml can be read back
and an area tree constructed. It is then possible to render the new area
tree to any of the renders. This will help with testing renders and the
area tree.

I appreciate your effort, I think it would be helpful to get the current
cvs (note: nothing else works) and help us work from there. The idea is to
create a set of xml files that describe various area trees and properties
and then write all the renders to work with the area trees.
