Re: Approaching a release?

2005-10-13 Thread Jeremias Maerki
Jay,

thank you very much for your offer. We don't need to examine any
credentials. If you want to help you're more than welcome to do so!

I've just got the website refactoring back (off-list) from Patrick Paul
and will examine that shortly. When the version split is in place I'll
be grateful if you could help sorting out the details.

 Hi, Jeremias,
 
 If you need or want an editor for that documentation, let me know. As you
 know, I use FOP and look forward to the new edition. As you probably don't
 know, I'm a technical writer and editor (and, these days, half developer)
 with 19 years experience and a Master's degree in English. My current resume
 is at http://www.bryantcs.com/resume.html if you need to examine my
 credentials.
 
 I started using FOP because I got tired of paying large sums of money for
 crappy systems and decided to create my own document production system. Now
 it produces text, PDF, HTML, and WordML output, all with open-source tools
 (FOP and Saxon).

  If all had gone as planned we would have done the first preview release
  last month. As soon as I'm finished with my space resolution task
  (hopefully this week), I'm going to write all necessary documentation
  for the redesigned FOP and then we're pretty much ready to release.
  Note: alpha/preview release only!

   give me a sense of how close (or far off) that might be?

Volunteer wanted - disabled-testcases.txt in XML

2005-10-13 Thread Jeremias Maerki
I've had a idea, hopefully a good one. If the disabled-testcases.txt
were rewritten as an XML file additional information could be added to
each disabled test case why it is disabled. This information could be
transformed by Forrest into a page (known issues) for our website. And
it could even be used as content for a release notes document.

Example:

block-container_reference-orientation_bug36391.xml
block_font-stretch.xml


becomes:

disabled-testcases
  testcase name=block-container_reference-orientation_bug36391 
bugzilla=36391
Blah describes the deficiency of the test case blah.
  /testcase
  testcase name=block_font-stretch
font-stretch is not implemented, yet.
  /testcase
  
/disabled-testcases

Anyone want to take a stab? No knowledge about FOP internals needed.

Re: hyphenation-present and junit-layout

But basically, why would anyone want to run regression tests without
hyphenation present?


Good point. I guess if there weren't any tests that don't require 
hyphenation support, we wouldn't be having this conversation...
Anyway, since we don't distribute any patterns with FOP anymore, 
enforcing hyphenation to be present would mean that running the basic 
layout regression test suite straight off the trunk code would always 
result in failure of the whole target --which sounds a bit drastic.


Cheers,

Andreas

new patch

This new patch fulfill all rules mentioned in Comment #3 except Typesetting
Adjustment R3 and shrink priority of R5.
It use java.text.BreakIterator.getLineInstance(locale) to decide line breaking
points, and use BreakIterator.getWordInstance(locale) to decide word boundary
for implementing Typesetting Adjustment R1.

Now, line breaking works well. 

* ISSUE NEED HELP *
All the width of KnuthGlues inserted for Typesetting Adjustment appear at line
end instead of their inserted position. I think I make mistakes about KnuthGlue
and AreaInfo. I'm trying to dig it out. however, I hope someone can give me
some hints. Is it caused by KnuthGlue/AreaInfo has no corresponding string?
