Hi, I've finally got SVG support working on Windows using MingW/MSYS. Here is a link to a zip archive containing a 'tuxpaint-svg.exe' and the extra DLLs: http://johnnypops.demon.co.uk/files/tuxpaint-0.9.17/tuxpaint-0.9.17cvs-win32-svg-test-01.zip if anyone wants to play with it. I'll write it up later: I had quite a struggle getting 'svg.dll' built because of a libtool problem... I've tested it with the .svg files from this project: http://www.linuxmotors.com/SDL_svg/ and the 'duplicates' in the stamps collection. One of them, 'pink_cake.svg' doesn't render anything - I've not looked into it yet. Thanks to Toyama Shin-ichi whose post got me started on this :-) regards, John. |

Thank you Jhon! Your tuxpaint-svg.exe works well on my WinXP. I'm looking forward to seeing your summary how to build svg-enabled version of tuxpaint!

Hi Shin-ichi, I've updated my instructions for building the DLLs and started from scratch using the latest MinGW/MSYS version: http://johnnypops.demon.co.uk/mingw/index.html Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me either :-( I also had trouble building the "fluid" FLTK application and it crashed with the same nasty message. It all builds and works fine when using an older version of MinGW/MSYS which uses a different version of the compiler, gcc-3.2.3, instead of the later gcc-3.4.2 so maybe it's something related to gcc? I'll try again later with gcc-3.4.5 which is also available on the MinGW site. Did you use the "Current" version of MinGW/MSYS ? I'm fairly sure the working ones were built with the "Previous" version, regards, John. |

Hi Jhon, At the end of last year, I tried to build tuxpaint-win32 with svg support using MinGW/MSYS (latest version at that time) The version of GCC I used was 3.4.2. I will try different version of gcc. Thank you for your information!

I should have mentioned that it doesn't over-write anything, and that it needs to be unpacked into the 'tuxpaint' parent directory, or somewhere else and the files moved in manually. > I tried double-clicking tuxpaint-svg.exe but get a Window pop-up error: > > The application failed to initialize properly (0x00000005). > Click on OK to terminate the application. > Thanks for testing it bill! That's the message we get with the latest builds, which is interesting, but just muddies the water further :-( Is that with the final release version of Tux Paint 0.9.16 installed ? There could be something nasty going on in one of the four new DLLs (0.9.16 seems to work fine with the new MinGW/MSYS) but that wouldn't explain the problem with 'fluid'. > Running regular tuxpaint.exe in there seems to work.

Could it be because of the gradients? It is with images with gradients we will really save most space by using SVG images instead of PNG. -- Karl Ove Hufthammer |

FYI, I finally updated tuxpaint.c so that when it stumbles across a PNG file,
it double-checks that there's no similarly-named SVG file. If it finds one,
it skips the PNG, with the assumption that the SVG one is the preferred one
to use.
I think at some point, for platforms that just won't do SVG any time soon,
we'll end up wanting a build process within tuxpaint-stamps that
converts SVGs into PNGs before packaging the stamps for release. Then only
package the PNGs.
So in the end, the only PNGs that would be stored in the Tux Paint Stamps
'source' repository would be photographic ones, for which there are no
corresponding PNGs.
In other words:
source tarball / CVS repository:
foo-photo.png
bar-drawing.svg
package for an SVG-capable platform: (say, Win32)
foo-photo.png
bar-drawing.svg
package for some non-SVG-supporting platform:
foo-photo.png
bar-drawing.png [converted from bar-drawing.svg at 'build' time]

Sounds like a plan! I found the problem with the previous build (I hope!) it was some weird exports in 'jpeg.dll' and a buggy gcc-3.4.2 compiler. Here is a link to a complete set of binaries zipped-up into a 'tuxpaint' directory: http://johnnypops.demon.co.uk/files/tuxpaint-0.9.17/tuxpaint-0.9.17cvs-win32-svg-test-02.zip (2.1Mb) which will overwrite existing files if you unpack into an existing 'tuxpaint' directory. It needs the 'data', 'docs' and 'locale' directories from an existing tuxpaint installation to work. Please test! I've updated my instructions and patches: http://johnnypops.demon.co.uk/mingw/index.html I've checked some minor updates into cvs, but there is still a problem with this embedded path: SVG_CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/cairo thanks, John. |

Hi ! Finally I got working tuxpaint.exe with svg-support basicly according to your instruction. Thank you! John Popplewell wrote in <200...@ro...> >I've updated my instructions and patches: > >http://johnnypops.demon.co.uk/mingw/index.html -- TOYAMA Shin-ichi mailto:sh...@wm... |
