What is Apache XML Graphics Commons?
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
It is a place where the Apache Batik and Apache FOP share commonly used
|
|
components. Many components in here are also usable and useful stand-alone.
|
|
|
|

Where to get help?
|
|

|
|
|
|
Please subscribe to the general@xmlgraphics.apache.org mailing list by sending
|
|
an empty mail to general-subscribe@xmlgraphics.apache.org. All you questions
|
|
about XML Graphics Commons will be answered there.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
How do I build Apache XML Graphics Commons?
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you've downloaded a binary distribution of Apache FOP or Apache Batik,
|
|
you don't need to build XML Graphics Commons. It is distributed with these
|
|
two products.
|
|
|
|
Otherwise, install Apache Ant (http://ant.apache.org) and run "ant" from the
|
|
command-line in the directory where you find "build.xml".
