Vincent Hennebert updated FOP-1099:
-----------------------------------
Attachment: footnote_repeated-table-heading.patch
I had another go at this problem and came up with the attached patch. It
leverages the patch from Matthias and adds support for repeated table
headers/footers.
For the first header/last footer, footnotes are treated the usual way. That
means that if the table is not broken over pages then footnotes coming from its
header/footer will be handled just like any other footnote.
For repeated headers/footers, I added a mechanism that registers footnotes
separately and inserts them at the right place at area creation time. That is,
footnotes from repeated headers first, then other footnotes, then footnotes
from repeated footers.
The size of the footnote is accounted for in the penalty that represents the
header/footer. As a consequence, the footnote will always be on the same page
as the header/footer and will never be deferred to later pages. The regular
footnote-handling mechanism is essentially by-passed here.
This works well except in the case of nested tables, when the outer table has a
repeated table-footer. Gaps will be visible between that footer and the inner
table, and the outer footer may even be mixed with the footnotes.
I guess we’ll have to leave with this limitation. Footnotes in repeated table
headers/footers already is a degenerate case IMO, so I would say footnotes in
repeated headers/footers in nested tables is pushing too far...
If people could try out this patch and give feedback, that would be great. I’ll
leave a few days for peer review and then, if nobody has objected, I'll commit
it to trunk.
