automated regression tests
by Felipe Sanches 26 Feb '08

26 Feb '08

sourceforge does not allow us to have pre-commit regression tests http://alexandria.wiki.sourceforge.net/Subversion+-+Version+Control+for+Sou… Hook Scripts SVN is capable of running server-side scripts during the various stages of a SVN commit operation. These hook scripts are very powerful, but due to the implementation of hook scripts in SVN, projects are not permitted full control over them. This is quite a large change from how CVS handles pre- and post- commit scripts. Accordingly, SourceForge.net makes available to projects specific scripts which may be of use to hosted projects. The following scripts are available for your use: * svnnotify: Sends email notifications of changes made during a SVN commit. Two versions of this hook script are available, one that includes a diff of the changes, and one that doesn't. * check-case-insensitive.py: Checks to make sure filenames are valid for a case insensitive environment (Windows, for example) * check-mime-type.pl: Checks to ensure a mime-type property is set for files added to the repository * ciabot_svn.py: Reports commit activity to cia.navi.cx.

For me the only big question in terms of API is: should the colorspace be document specific or on a per color basis ? Is there any use case where you want to mix on the same document RGBs and CMYKs ? I don't think so, but I might be wrong.

Mac OS X printing/packaging issue...
by Jamie Kimberley 25 Feb '08

25 Feb '08

Hi all, I've been using the 0.46pre2 release on os X 10.4.11 PPC for a few days now and am having issues with printing using the .app bundle generated by the included bundling script. Here is the scenario: After building from source I can run the compiled binary (not the packaged .app) from the command line and printing works as expected. However after using the included script (osx-app.sh) to bundle the binary into a double-click-able .app the print dialog shows no printers. I've also tried launching the binary inside the .app from the command line (i.e. inkscape.app/Contents/MacOS/Inkscape) but the same issue with the print dialog exists. It seems that this is most likely an issue with the packaging script, but I could be wrong. I can provide more info if you let me know what you would be useful.
