[jira] Commented: (DOXIA-99) Figures require extension in APT and
they should not
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-99?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_123793 ]
Lukas Theussl commented on DOXIA-99:
------------------------------------
I think it has by now become a de-facto standard in maven land that figures in apt require an extension. Figure sources are just links, and so should be valid and unique as such. Since we have already decided to deviate from the original apt format (see http://docs.codehaus.org/display/DOXIA/Proposed+Changes+to+the+APT+Format), I think it would be the cleanest solution to leave it like that. So a parser should just emit the figure source as is, and any sink can check if it supports the figure format and if not, give a warning, try to convert, look for another source, or whatever.
One option we could implement for (partial) compatibility with aptconvert is that the AptParser checks if the figure source has an extension, and if not append a default one.

> For example, http://ehcache.sourceforge.net/nameandlogo.html shows a broken image. The APT for this page is:
> [images/ehcache_logo]
> Now, if I change it to [images/ehcache_logo.gif] it works. However this breaks aptconvert. The reason is that it is illegal in APT to specify the figure extension. I use aptconvert to create a pdf and single HTML page.
