Bulat,it would be cool to have you aboard... I sure feel that GWT is the right approach to craft a formula editor.
There's many such editors around though, so you'll need to stand out.
One first small critique I have is that you say you implement copy-and- paste but you actually only do this internally... not at all in any advanced fashion as, e.g., has been offered by MSIE and Safari. Just a change of claim I suppose.
My question about serialization is that display of formulæ is about 100 times more often done than editing of formulæ in common online documents. So one needs a rendering infrastructure that can display, and fast, within web-pages and in print. I tend to believe MathML is the best for this purpose.
The claim for computability is bold, be very careful there: it would mean you can serialize to MathML content or OpenMath but, at least now, you allow a++b which has no computability. Many editors offer both modes: with computability and without.
I like the way the you implemented selection. paul On 26-févr.-10, at 18:15, Bulat wrote:
They don't have any persistence implemented. The project is focused onediting the formula, so all they have at the moment is a Java object holding the formula. With that, we can serialize it any way we want.I'm one of the developers of GWT Formula Editor. Serialization andde-serialization of formulas is not of a big importance for us for now. We've been focusing more on editing usability (there's still enough open questions).Never the less, support for MathML and TeX (and some other formats and computational Java libraries) is planned for the future.If you are interested in integration of GWT Formula Editor with XWiki, we can collaborate on serialization/de-serialization implementation. I suppose, that existing TeX or MathML parsers can be slightly modified to fit to our needs.But not display it in any other format?What do you mean ?Sounds annoying.That can be fixed. :) Best wishes!
