What is it?
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Batik is a Java based toolkit for applications which handle
|
||
|
|
images in the Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) format for
|
||
|
|
various purposes, such as viewing, generation or
|
||
|
|
manipulation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The project's ambition is to give developers a set of core
|
||
|
|
modules which can be used together or individually to
|
||
|
|
support specific SVG solutions. Examples of modules are
|
||
|
|
an SVG parser, an SVG generator and an SVG DOM
|
||
|
|
implementation. Another ambition of the Batik project is to
|
||
|
|
make it highly extensible (for example, Batik allows the
|
||
|
|
developer to handle custom SVG tags). Even though the
|
||
|
|
goal of the project is to provide a set of core modules, one
|
||
|
|
of the deliveries is a full fledged SVG Viewer
|
||
|
|
implementation which validates the various modules and
|
||
|
|
their inter-operability.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In a nutshell, Batik provides building blocks that developers
|
||
|
|
can assemble in various ways in their Java technology
|
||
|
|
applications to generate, parse, view or convert SVG
|
||
|
|
contents. For example, Batik contains a Swing component
|
||
|
|
that can add SVG viewing capability to all Java technology
|
||
|
|
applications. Batik can also be used to generate SVG on a
|
||
|
|
client or on a server, and Batik can convert SVG content
|
||
|
|
into other formats such as JPEG or PNG. Batik's goal is to
|
||
|
|
make it easy for application developers to handle SVG
|
||
|
|
content for various purposes, client-side or server-side.
