basic-links, bug??

2002-03-11 Thread Nestel, Frank ISC 6

Hello,

experimenting with FOP 0.20.3 I realize that 
basic-links are formatted far of. IE. the clickable-area
is tranlated from the actual linked characters by such a
large margin, that it is impossible to make a single
character a working link (cause the clickable area is
probably shifted in the surrounding whitespace and the
whitespace is not clickable at all).

Am I doing something wrong or is it a know problem.
And when, when comes the fix??

With best regards,

Driver API Suggestion

2001-11-29 Thread Nestel, Frank

Hi,

as a former (0.19 was running fine) and future user (hope I 
get 0.20.2 up again, 0.20.1 was kind of a mess in my environment)
of fop I'd first like to thank for it. Great work!

Second I have a question on the API of the Driver Object, which
is a bit about aesthetic

Deep within a XSLT Framework we use, I have code like

// -1-
Result outResult = obtainResult(mime, status, out);
transformer.setErrorListener(this);
transformer.transform(source, outResult);
// -2-
if ( status.getDriver() != null ) {
status.getDriver().format();
status.getDriver().render();
}

with obtainResult() containing different branches e.g. like this

Driver driver = new Driver();
driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);
driver.setOutputStream(out);
status.setDriver(driver); // <- -2-
return new SAXResult(driver.getContentHandler());

-1- is fairly generic in the sense that different kinds of
sources and different kinds of results can be processed.

-2- is what I don't like. Actually the status object is the problem
since its main purpose in this sequence is to store additional 
information about the Driver object, s.th. which is not needed for
most of the other Result objects used at this point within out
Framework. 

If the the driver.getContentHandler() would return an object which 
would automatically start the format() and render() after the 
endDocument() has been fired, this would be very convenient in above 
use case.

So I wonder if it would be useful for more people to have s.th. like a
Driver.getContentHandler(boolean autoRender)
method, which eigher returns a normal ContentHandler or one which
automatically formats and renders. Actually I haven't get a usecase
for autoRender = false arround here yet.

Thanks for your patience and reading till here.

Frank

AW: Problem with API change in fop 0.20.1

2001-08-22 Thread Nestel, Frank

Well, thank you for your answer, the problem, is
that I need to use fop in a different way than
decribed on the embedding page, as a ContentHandler.
But as pointed out by Michael Lehon, I'd look at the CVS 
or wait for the logger problem to be cleared in 0.20.2.

Problem with API change in fop 0.20.1

2001-08-22 Thread Nestel, Frank

Hello,

we've experimenting with fop as an PDF renderer and would like to
upgrde to fop0.20. As this is only a part of a larger framework,
we used to use the TraX Result Wrappers to pass along our input to
fop. Somehow I do not understand the latest FOP-API changes:

The call sequence we used succesfully with fop0.17(?), 0.18 and 0.19
was, like

Result res = obtainResult(XMLServletRequestStatus status, OutputStream
out)
// 
// ... Do s.th. to "fill" the result
//
Driver driver = status.getDriver();
driver.format();
driver.render();

with the method obtainResult() defined like

protected Result obtainResult(XMLServletRequestStatus status,
OutputStream out)
throws IOException
{
if(!status.isFOStyle())
{
return new StreamResult(out);
}
else
{
Driver driver = new Driver();
String version = org.apache.fop.apps.Version.getVersion();
 
driver.setRenderer("org.apache.fop.render.pdf.PDFRenderer",version);
 
driver.addElementMapping("org.apache.fop.fo.StandardElementMapping");

driver.addElementMapping("org.apache.fop.svg.SVGElementMapping");

driver.addPropertyList("org.apache.fop.fo.StandardPropertyListMapping");

driver.addPropertyList("org.apache.fop.svg.SVGPropertyListMapping");

driver.setOutputStream(out);
status.setDriver(driver);
return new SAXResult(driver.getContentHandler());
}
}

as it turned out, some of those API ceased to exist, though marked as
deprecated
in the JavaDoc. So I reworked obtainResult() to this:

protected Result obtainResult(XMLServletRequestStatus status,
OutputStream out)
throws IOException
{
if(!status.isFOStyle())
{
return new StreamResult(out);
}
else
{
Driver driver = new Driver();
String version = org.apache.fop.apps.Version.getVersion();
// as of version 0.20.1
 
//driver.setRenderer("org.apache.fop.render.pdf.PDFRenderer",version);
org.apache.fop.render.Renderer rend = new
org.apache.fop.render.pdf.PDFRenderer();
log.msg("Renderer = "+rend);
driver.setRenderer(rend);

driver.addElementMapping("org.apache.fop.fo.StandardElementMapping");

driver.addElementMapping("org.apache.fop.svg.SVGElementMapping");
// as of version 0.20.1
//
driver.addPropertyList("org.apache.fop.fo.StandardPropertyListMapping");
//
driver.addPropertyList("org.apache.fop.svg.SVGPropertyListMapping");
driver.setOutputStream(out);
status.setDriver(driver);
return new SAXResult(driver.getContentHandler());
}
}

This compiles, so at least it uses only known API's, but plugin it into 
the surrounding environment, I end up with this:

java.lang.NullPointerException

org.apache.fop.fo.FOTreeBuilder.startDocument(FOTreeBuilder.java:167)

at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484)

Which looks like the streamRenderer member in FOTreeBuilder has not been
initialized.

Before I start sifting thru the whole code, any quick clue from a guru?

You might also note that I actually don't think I need SVG, put I didn't get
the
older fops to works without it. 

Thank you very much,

Frank
