Dear Mr DeWeese Thanks for your kind and quick reply.
Actually we are planning to use Batik in our project. As I am researching (Feasibility) on different SVG implementation I am wondering how these implementations going to cope with latest SVG SPEC (SVG 1.2 and SVGP). As an example if I want to implement SVGP with the help or on top of the Batik what root I have to follow.

Hi Shan, There is already some work in this area in the Batik extensions (batik.extension.svg package). There are complete working implementations of multiImage, and solidColor. There is also a limited implementation of flowText (mostly it just supports rects rather than arbitrary regions). All this work has taken place in the Batik Namespace to make it clear that these are not part of SVG yet. These sorts of extensions are handled very nicely by the Batik extensibility architecture. I haven't looked at how easy (or difficult) it might be to add support for things like Rcc which may require some modification of the Batik architecture. As SVG 1.2 becomes more real some effort should be focused on how to move these from the Batik Namespace into the SVG namespace for documents that reference SVG 1.2 (via the version attribute presumably). This shouldn't be too hard given the bridge architecture in place. What sort of things are you looking at/interested in? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
