Pluggable renderers

           Summary: Pluggable renderers
           Product: Fop
           Version: all
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Playing around with gcj the other day, I noticed fop is not gcj-"compatible"
(yet) due to its AWT renderer that requires swing classes.

Not having studied the redesign code in detail, I'd like to propose (if not
already part of the master plan) to source out the renderers in small modules so
that not only limitations in the Java VM can be avoided :-) but also to follow
the KISS principle when your use case only requires PDF (or RTF or ...) output.

Another idea (from a "./configure && make install" background) would be to have
"options" "--enable-pdf", "--enable-ps", "--enable-rtf" & Co. to the build
process that determine which renderers are to be included.
