Hi all,

For a very long time, I've been trying to get the OOo's cairo canvas
(located in canvas/source/cairo) ported to Mac OS X quartz. A X11 port
already exist and is used by Linux ppl, but it is untested on Mac OS
X.

For this work I've created CWS cairoquartz01:
http://go-ooo.org/bonsai/cvsquery.cgi?branchtype=match&date=month&branch=cws_src680_cairoquartz01

The code is getting ready for integration, although it is not a full
implementation:
- there are problems with screen refresh
- fonts are not shown (my guess is that Aqua VCL is missing some implementation)


HOW TO HELP:
You can test the code by getting the code from cws cairoquartz01. You
will need to use it on top of the normal  aquavcl01 cws.

The cairoquartz01 cws contains the necessary code to retrieve a
prebuilt cairo library, which has support for both x11 and quartz
versions and also PPC and Intel (i.e. Universal).

You will also need to apply the
http://mox.fidisk.fi/opensource/i72385-salbmp-byteorderfix.patch to
avoid cairo crashes / library not working.

That fix unfortunately seems to cause some discoloring on Intel
machines (PPC has no problems). Any suggestions for better fix?


To see OOo Cairo Canvas in action, start OpenOffice.org Impress with
some document (the builtin templates are good testers) and initiate
(fullscreen) Slideshow.

BR,

        Mox
