Evas generic loaders 1.7.0 ****************************************************************************** FOR ANY ISSUES PLEASE EMAIL: enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net ****************************************************************************** Requirements: ------------- Must: libc libm zlib Recommended: gstreamer poppler libraw libspectre These are additional "generic" loaders for Evas that are stand-alone executables that evas may run from its generic loader module. This means that if they crash, the application loading the image does not crash also. In addition the licensing of these binaries will not affect the license of any application that uses Evas as this uses a completely generic execution system that allows anything to be plugged in as a loader. Generic loaders currently provided: XCF (.xcf .xcf.gz) PDF (using poppler) use -key option to specific what page to get and load options for size Should we add mupdf ? PS (using libspectre) use -key option to specific what page to get and load options for size Should we use directly libgs ? RAW (using libraw) MPG/AVI/OGV/MOV/MKV/WMV etc. (using Gstreamer) Should we add libxine and vlc ? Possible fun ones in future: DVI (using DVIlib, see edvi) DJVU (using libdjvu) PPT/PPTX (beats me how u can render a page from these without a whole office impl - but worth a try? libopenoffice/libllibreoffice if it ever happens?) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ COMPILING AND INSTALLING: ./configure make (as root unless you are installing in your users directories): make install NOTE: you should put generic loaders in the same prefix as Evas or they will not be found.
