FOP and Avalon

[Javier Salado <ja...@swissrisk.com>]

Hello there,

I have been browsing the archive and I have read old messages regarding the
dependencies between FOP and the Avalon framework.

As far as I understood FOP uses the logging and configuration utilities from
Avalon and I have read that there is already some work done to use
commons-logging instead. Any lans to use commons-configuration as well?

In summary is the latest release (0.93) Avalon-free or are there any plans
to have an Avalon-free release in the near future?

My concerns are due to the fact that our applications that uses FOP for
report generation, and I would like to plan ahead all the details of the
support issues.

Thanks for the help and best regards,
J.

Hi Javier,

The Avalon dependencies are minimal in the latest trunk build (and the 
forth coming 0.94 release).  FOP uses Apache Commons logging which 
allows you to chose which ever logging implementation you desire.  The 
old configuration dependencies are now minimal, I abstracted all that 
code out of the renderers, and it now resides in a series of 
Configurator classes which could be easily overriden/rewritten with 
different implementations in the future.

Adrian.
