Just
wondering if there is anyway to write wrapper classes for all the drawing
instructions of Batik, so we can easily port it to other platforms or languages
such as .NET in C# using GDI+

AFAIK, you can not run Batik on the Pocket PC. SVGCanvas is
not the problem and swing is not the problem. The problem is that Batik
uses Java2D, and I know of no implementation that will run on Pocket
PC. You would have to implement hundreds of classes like
Rectangle2D, Line2D, etc... You can maybe get Batik to read SVG, but it
will not be able to display the image. You may ask the developers if the
rendering code is easy to rewrite, but I don't think so. It is
the gvt (if I remember correctly) classes that will cause the most
problems. BTW, even if you don't draw to the display, you still need
Java2D internally.
The
only options I know that will work on a handheld is to replace Pocket
PC.

So, you are saying to me that is no away to run
the batik modules in pocket pc?
(look i'm not interested in run the SVGCanvas i
can make another canvas without swing if it's possible!!)

Sure, but the problem is that no one could know correctly guess
everyone's needs apriori. I know that IBM's MicroAge tool for
developing on palm for power pc, automatically will create a jar with just
those classes that you reference. I think they have support for
pocketpc too, but they don't really support swing. If you want to do
swing on PPC, you need Personal Java and you have to modify it. I'll try
to remember and get a link from home regarding this. But here is another
problem, you think these jars,are big? Wait until you look at Swing,
which the JSVGCanvas depends on! Not to mention that the StrongArm
is no where near as powerful as your desktop cpu.
Well anyhow, email me if you want me to find that reference
for you, and good luck with you project.
:)
I'd say very painfull. for example, the Canvas
is very nice for applets, but with 2Mb almost no one is going to use it
that way...perhaps a small distribution would make
sense...
You don't need all the jar files, it would be possible
(although a little painful) to also strip down the jars just to those
classes that you actually use.
regarding this, I noted that the full batik
jars are 2Mb, so perhaps that's a problem for pocket. is there any
way to reduce the size of the batik distro ?
thanks
Could you specify the core modules you
are interested in using?

Hi ppl,
Can use the batik core modules and
low level modules with jdk1.1?
My purpose is to create a
SVG Viewer for Pocket PCs and i only know the Jeode Java
virtual machine for Pocket PC and it only suports (i guess!)
jdk1.1.
I appreciate all the help u can
give to me namely if there is any newer VM for
pocket...
Thanks,
