Summary | 0012327: Update the relevant plug-in interfaces and the plug-ins to use librevenge | ||||
Description | librevenge simplifies the adoption of import libraries provided by the Document Liberation Project, as well as building for those who regularly update trunk svn. Moreover, all of the latest versions of the libraries require librevenge, and the coming libpagemaker will do so as well. | ||||

Dumb bug.. this is a "fix A" instead of about 10 bugs for fixing a,b,c,d.. etc. Dont submit stuff like this. librevenge is not tested and using it not required, although it might prove to be so. |
|
This isn't "dumb" at all. All current versions of libvisio, libmspub etc. require librevenge. librevenge replaces libwpd, libwpd and all the other dependencies that were required to even compile libvisio etc., which in return are required to build a fully functional 1.5svn. |
|
>> librevenge replaces libwpd, libwpd and all the other dependencies that were required to even compile libvisio No, librevenge defines interfaces for importers, it does not replaces those libs. Libwpd and libwpg have had new releases at the same time as librevenge 0.0.0 and they now depend on librevenge. Anyway even if we'd had to rewrite code, rewriting code because of a 0.0.0 release would be foolish and premature. |
|
I'm keeping this one closed, but please note that we likely won't be able to update to new versions of the import libraries without librevenge. As to libwpd and libwpg, I remember Fridrich and Franz talking at LGM about how certain features that are necessary for all importers had been introduced in the most recent library, without any system or plan. Hence the reliance on libwpd and libwpg. This may have changed with librevenge. Regarding the version number, Fridrich was pretty clear that Document Liberation is *extremely* conservative with version numbers, and that 0.0.0 is what other projects would use for a 1.0 release. Morevover, David Tardon has recently announced (including scribus-dev) that they intend to keep the 0.0.0 API stable for at least 2 years. |
|
that's why indesign is much better than scribus! they're at version 6 and we at an embarassing 1.4... like the software we used to have in the eighties... |
|
Started work on porting the relevant importers to use librevenge. |
|
Importer for MS Publisher is ported |
|
Importer for MS Visio is ported |
|
All plugins are now ported to librevenge. |
|
Tested, fixed. Thanks! |
