Hello Ben,
UFFI does not allow you to call static libraries. Static libraries
Hello Ben,
UFFI does not allow you to call static libraries. Static libraries are
not executable per se, they need to be linked in another program.
As I know, the only way of using an static library from Pharo is to:
- Build a plugin that wraps it.
- Build a DLL exposing all the functions in
I'm looking into calling PDFium from Pharo via FFI.
Currently I'm stalled a bit since it doesn't have a shared-library target.
If you consider access to such a library would be useful to the community,
please take a few moments to star this issue...

Implementation wise this may be possible through a hack, some OS windows
can be semi trasparent , this make it possible to overlay one GUI element
over the other in this case a PDF with basic scrolling handles. It should
be possible with UFFI and some knowledge of OS GUI APIs. Probably much
easier
I have been thinking about this. I don't know if you can have a VNC
client inside the image that can be used to render a PDF app, but that
would be my first approach, to leverage all the features in the current
PDF readers.
Cheers,
Offray

Hi manuel
So far I do not know if we have this is Pharo.
I imagine that we would have to build a renderer once we will have the
PDF reader from Christian library.

Hi,
I want to view a PDF within Pharo. I found that Athens has a PDF canvas, but I
have no idea how to use it. Is there a way to view a PDF within Pharo, so that
I can scroll, zoom, click links etc. in the PDF?
Cheers,
Manuel
