I'm thinking of using libsvgtiny for the svg conversion tool and cairo for all the vector rendering. The vector icon format will probably be iff based and have optional compression using either zlib or bzip2.
Trying to compile libsvgtiny (latest SVN version) I get the following output: Quote:
/Projects/libsvgtiny> make GPERF: src/colors.gperf COMPILE: build-amiga-amiga-release-lib-static/src_colors.c COMPILE: src/svgtiny.c cc1: warnings being treated as errors src/svgtiny.c: In function 'svgtiny_parse_text': src/svgtiny.c:782: warning: implicit declaration of function 'strdup' src/svgtiny.c:782: warning: nested extern declaration of 'strdup' src/svgtiny.c:782: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast src/svgtiny.c: In function 'svgtiny_parse_color': src/svgtiny.c:966: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast src/svgtiny.c: In function 'svgtiny_add_shape': src/svgtiny.c:1165: warning: implicit declaration of function 'lroundf' src/svgtiny.c:1165: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'lroundf' gmake: *** [build-amiga-amiga-release-lib-static/src_svgtiny.o] Error 1 /Projects/libsvgtiny>
Any idea why this is?
This is with a fresh SDK install with only latest libxml2 from OS4Depot added. I've also tried cross-compiling it on cygwin which produces more or less the same result.
strdup() should be declared in string.h which is included from svgtiny.c so I don't see why it's complaining that it's not declared.
The weird thing is that I compiled it successfully in the weekend on my parents' ubuntu pc (without errors or warnings) only I didn't think to take this binary with me as I didn't think it would be a problem to compile it again.
Why develop modules for a program that's no longer developed and won't even find radio stations to stream (like the TuneNet name implies). Wouldn't it be better for developers to turn their attention to an actively developed program like AmigaAMP and help expand that??

1) TuneNet plugin API is open which means that: a) Pretty much anyone can write a plugin for it. b) AmigaAMP author can easily add support for TuneNet plugins if he wants to.
2) AmigaAMP is closed source and does not have any plugin API defined.
Screenshot from simple SVG viewer that I wrote to test the libsvgtiny and cairo functions:
Wow!! That looks like a useful tool on it's own, seeeing how many .svg graphics are available on the net. A conversion tool for svg to dr2d (and vice versa) would be useful too. I use black and white scans of kanji, converted to dr2d for use in Pagestream. Any dr2d tools would be a big benefit.

I think I'll be redoing the svg.datatype with libsvgtiny instead. The libsvg/libsvg-cairo that current svg.datatype uses are old and no longer developed. Also libsvgtiny is much smaller as showsvg program currently is only about ~90kB while current svg.datatype is about ~160kB.
Edit: Come to think of it, much of the size difference might be because libxml2 and cairo are dynamically linked in showsvg, while everything is linked statically in svg.datatype. Libsvgtiny is still a better choice though as it's still being developed as part of NetSurf project.

If you look above you can see that Chris already linked to one such program that he's written and uploaded to aminet.
The basic template is there (the most recent changes make it crash though). It needs lots lots lots of work, I dig into it every now and then but if you're on a structured art binge and redoing datatypes then you might want to see if you can progress it a bit further.

You can also use NetSurf to convert SVG to DR2D, just load them up and select Project=>Save as=>IFF (or put them straight on the clipboard with Edit=>Copy)
I just had a quick look at the source code (didn't compile it or anything yet). From what I understand it's the usage of libcairo.so that is causing problems? Have you tried adding "-Wl,--export-dynamic" option when linking?

That was the Cairo-related crash. I can't remember if I tried that or not. The current crashing is something else though (I took Cairo out and decided to concentrate on the communication between the two parts)
possibility to add hardware sid playback through catweazle installed sids??

I haven't given up on it yet, wrote the plugin and it was failing on decoding, then did some adjustments and it failed on opening the file!!!
I have a nice few Christmas weeks off soon so will spend as much time coding as I can. I have updates planned for WiFiSignal, I have fixed a load of bugs in TheClue so will release this soon and I have started recompiling some of the TN plugins in the new SDK and using Newlib instead of CLIB. I also plan to make/port some more visual plugins, get this bloody sidplay2 plugin working and find some more projects to work on. Did I forget that I will eat lots of Turkey and drink as much beer as I can!!!
