Re: [Inkscape-devel] A problem compiling CVS

I'd comment, but I don't really understand beyond "Inkscape is not using Poppler properly." XD

Thanks for the help though! :D

I asked the Poppler guys if they could define macros with their version info in them, so that the version could be sensed at compile time. I don't know what they want to do.

The problem is that the Inkscape code calls internal Poppler, stuff and not their public API. So there are no promises that there will not be more breakages in the future. The Poppler guys know that we are using their code improperly. But they also -like- us using Poppler in Inkscape (they helped with the fix). So in the future there might possibly be a more stable low-level way of catching parsing events. Maybe registering a callback?
