Re: Problem with the driver

Hai,

I do have all the jars in the build path.This happens only when i am trying

And now you're probably missing fop.jar in your classpath. Please check
that you've got all necessary JAR files for FOP in your classpath:
fop.jar, avalon-framework.jar, batik.jar, an XML parser and an XSLT
engine and optionally: jimi.jar, jai.jar etc.

If you have an exception like that you can find out yourself where the
missing classes are: You can open JAR file with tools like WinZip to see
what classes are inside. Then, I'm sure you'll find out yourself what
JAR is missing.

By the way: Please post pleas for help on the fop-user mailing list.
Thank you.

FOText constructor (trunk)

[Victor Mote]

There is a change between the maintenance branch & the redesign (trunk) that
I do not understand. The constructor for FOText no longer has its parent
node as a parameter as it did in the maintenance branch. Does anyone know
the purpose of this? FWIW, it was part of the very first revision after the
maintenance branch was created (rev 1.25). Specifically, is it a problem if
I put it back in?

Re: FOText constructor (trunk)

[Jeremias Maerki]

I can't tell. Probably not. I hope Keiron can jump in here.

The only thing that comes to my mind right now is the problem of garbage
collection. Having parent-to-child references is one thing. Having
child-to-parent references is another. In the PDF lib refactoring I'm
currently doing, I've introduced WeakReferences for child-to-parent
references so discarded objects can be garbage collected without having
to develop extensive clean-up code. Maybe something like that played in
there: Minimizing child to parent references. I really can't tell from
CVS.

Anyway, may I ask for the reason that you want to do that?

You'll have to deploy all the jars so that the servlet container
can find them. Usually this means putting them into WEB-INF/lib.

Sure. I am trying to port some code I wrote to implement text-transform for
the maintenance branch over to the trunk. One of the key things there is to
tie together all FOText objects that are part of the same Block, so that
word boundaries are respected regardless of the markup. The way I
implemented this was to keep finding ancestors until I came to a Block. I
can't do that without the reference to the parent. It is not a high priority
thing, but I am trying to finish up all of the stuff I started in the
maintenance branch.

Hmm, I'm no specialist in this area but wouldn't this be part of the
property refinement which lies within the scope of Peter's work to be
integrated with the trunk? I just hope you guys don't do the work twice.
You two better stick your heads together. Just a thought.

Has anyone ever seen a situation where a pdf created using FOP and 
xsl:fo is sent in an email directly from Internet Explorer (File -> Send

they receive the email?

Found virus EMail_Flaw_MIME_Tag_Overflow in file
The file is deleted.

Re: FOText constructor (trunk)

[Keiron Liddle]

Hi Victor,

If I can remember correctly, it was done for a few reasons.
Originally it was using the parent to load properties, it would then store these 
properties in variables and pass them to methods when doing layout.
It is possible that the same parent could have more than one FOText child created, 
depending on SAX events and other children, this meant that it was reading those 
properties and putting them into variables multiple times when only one copy was 
needed. The TextInfo class holds this information.
Also now that the layout is done separately it is easier to pass a single object with 
all the text information.
The other is to reduce references in the fo tree.

So if possible I would suggest putting the required properties into the TextInfo 
class.

Keiron.

Should've read this earlier.

This sounds more like a layout thing.
If you are going to find complete words to do some manipulation then I would 
suggest taking a look at the "getWordChars" method in the layout managers. This 
is used to gather together all strings in from different layout managers, eg. when 
there is a inline fo. At the moment it is meant for hyphenation.
The exact implementation for this may change but that is the general idea.
