Yes, I am certain. This code is part of the development version of
libextractor. http://gnunet.org/libextractor/

Here's the patch that went into libextractor after the latest release:
http://www.mail-archive.com/gnu...@gn.../msg00184.html

Both the header and code implementation files are covered by GPL.

Today I mailed the signed copyright asignment via airmail.
I hope you receive it in a few days.

The attached patch fixes compile errors on MingW 3.2-rc3.
In Windows, the directory names must not end with directory separators.

And the relink problem on "make install" is fixed if I modify ltmain.sh
so the only "need_relink=3Dyes" line is modified to "need_relink=3Dno"
after running autogen.sh.

Finally I was able to compile my rlibtest.c into rlibtest.exe.
It produces a very bad PDF. I set up the same data source on Windows
so it accesses the same dataset.

Here's the output of my program on Linux:
-------------------------------------
type=3D'Content-Type: application/pdf
Content-Length: 28575
'
buf=3D0x5a5080
length=3D28575
-------------------------------------

As expected, the file length is 28575 on Linux.

And here's the output on Windows:

-------------------------------------
type=3D'Content-Type: application/pdf
Content-Length: 15998
'
buf=3D01603810
length=3D15998
-------------------------------------

But the file length is not 15998, it's 16240 on Windows. ???

And I tested the generated PDFs, too. Upon opening them in Adobe
Acrobat Reader, I get this for the PDF generated on Linux in a
messagebox:

"Insufficient data for an image"

The image is not shown but the report header and records are shown
correctly.

And for the PDF generated in Windows:

"There was an error opening this document."
"The file is damaged and could not be repaired."

BTW, I get this when I open the Linux PDF in GV:

XPDF opens the file correctly with no warnings on the console.

But for the Windows PDF I get this with XPDF:

-------------------------------------

I got this error from GV for the Windows PDF:

If you need the output files, I send them in separate e-mails.
