| | Ankur: are you having trouble opening mupdf? or reading a particular PDF in it? | 10:55.25 |
| Ankur | i have creted libmupdf.so file | 10:55.44 |
| | but now don't know wht to do ahead | 10:56.00 |
| | simple tell me best suggestion for reading pdf file in android | 10:56.18 |
| sebras | Ankur: so are you creating a new Android app to show pdf files? | 10:56.25 |
| Ankur | if i am in wrong way | 10:56.27 |
| | yes | 10:56.35 |
| | i in my existing project there is req. og showing .pdf files | 10:56.55 |
| | of* | 10:57.15 |
| sebras | Ankur: I would suggest that you read the sources of the sample reader in platform/android/ | 10:57.31 |
| Ankur | so if you have any code for doing same plz forward it to me | 10:57.45 |
| sebras | Ankur: this is the source of the mupdf Android app available in Google Play. | 10:57.50 |
| Ankur | yes but i have to create the lib file of it right? | 10:58.18 |
| sebras | Ankur: yes, but then you need to call it from Java, and there is an example of how to do that in platform/android/ | 10:58.57 |
| | Ankur: just out of curiosity, what is your current project that needs showing pdf-files? | 10:59.22 |
| Ankur | my project is ebook | 10:59.42 |
| Robin_Watts | Ankur: Presumably you are following the build instructions in platform/android/ReadMe.txt ? | 10:59.44 |
| | The first stages of that lead you through the setup, and how to call ndk-build to get libmupdf.so | 11:00.21 |
| Ankur | no robin..i have not heard that before | 11:00.26 |
| Robin_Watts | The latter stages run through how to build the actual android app. | 11:00.38 |
| Ankur | so i have not done that | 11:00.46 |
| Robin_Watts | Ankur: Well, that would seem a good thing for you to try. | 11:01.22 |
| sebras | Ankur: that is definitely a good start. | 11:01.36 |
| Ankur | Right now i am able to use all the src files of mupdf but i am getting only 1 error | 11:01.38 |
| | jst 1 min | 11:01.41 |
| | Caused by: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Couldn't load mupdf: findLibrary returned null | 11:02.04 |
| sebras | Ankur: so this ebook app. are you going to post that on Play store? | 11:02.08 |
| Ankur | This error is coming | 11:02.11 |
| | yes | 11:02.18 |
| | i am going to post it on playstore in march | 11:02.37 |
| | curnt in devl stage | 11:02.50 |
| Robin_Watts | Ankur: OK, so before we do anything else, you need to be sure that you are happy with the license that MuPDF is provided under. | 11:02.56 |
| Ankur | have any one work with pdf anytime | 11:03.08 |
| Robin_Watts | You have 2 possible licensing options for MuPDF. | 11:03.10 |
| | The first one is to use the GNU GPL. | 11:03.23 |
| Ankur | so plz give me your mail id so i can contact u easily | 11:03.29 |
| | Mupdf is opensouce so no worry at all | 11:04.00 |
| sebras | Ankur: is your app going to be open source too? | 11:04.18 |
| Ankur | yes | 11:04.25 |
| Robin_Watts | The GNU GPL is a complex license that you should read and understand properly before using, but the basic upshot is that if you use MuPDF in your app under the GNU GPL, then you need to release your entire app under the GPL. | 11:04.39 |
| Ankur | OK..THANK YOU FOr THAT | 11:05.19 |
| | i will have to hv read that befor using it | 11:05.32 |
| Robin_Watts | This means (among other things) that you need to to release the entirety of your app. All the source code, all the resources everything. There can be no 'secrets' left in your app. | 11:05.37 |
| | So if you were hoping to charge for the app in the appstore, you'll be in trouble. | 11:06.08 |
| | As anyone could just clone your app and release it for free. | 11:06.18 |
| Ankur | thank you for this ..i am really not aware abt that | 11:06.53 |
| | anything more if i have to care about ... | 11:07.12 |
| | please tell me when you get time | 11:07.21 |
| | on patelneha4u@gmail.com | 11:07.47 |
| Robin_Watts | If you aren't happy with that, then MuPDF is released under the Artifex commercial license too. You can pay us, and in exchange you can be freed from all the requirements of the GPL. | 11:07.49 |
| Ankur | ok | 11:08.14 |
| Robin_Watts | If you're not happy to either abide by the terms of the GPL, or the Artifex commercial license, then you will have to find a different lib. | 11:08.25 |
| Ankur | i will think abt that later | 11:08.27 |
| Robin_Watts | OK. | 11:08.32 |
| Ankur | and late you know | 11:08.35 |
| Robin_Watts | So to get back to your build problem... | 11:08.46 |
| Ankur | ok | 11:08.54 |
| Robin_Watts | Are you working from a git copy of the source, or are you working from a release? | 11:09.09 |
| Ankur | from mupdf profesional site | 11:09.44 |
| | i am beginer in android | 11:10.09 |
| | so dont know all this stuff | 11:10.18 |
| sebras | Ankur: is this where you downloaded the source? http://code.google.com/p/mupdf/downloads/list | 11:10.35 |
| Ankur | yes | 11:10.50 |
| | is it fine? | 11:11.03 |
| | hello | 11:11.38 |
| ghostbot | hola | 11:11.38 |
| Robin_Watts | Right, so that is release 1.3 | 11:11.51 |
| Ankur | so it is fine with relese1.3 | 11:12.10 |
| Robin_Watts | It's not the most up to date version of the source, but it'll do. | 11:12.15 |
| Ankur | ok | 11:12.32 |
| Robin_Watts | So, in there there should be a platform/android/ReadMe.txt file. | 11:12.36 |
| Ankur | ok | 11:12.43 |
| | next | 11:12.46 |
| Robin_Watts | Read that carefully, follow the steps one by one, and you should end up with a copy of our MuPDF android application. | 11:13.08 |
| Ankur | ok | 11:13.26 |
| | i have not read that | 11:13.35 |
| | i am refering mupdfblogspot.com | 11:13.48 |
| Robin_Watts | Yes, and I am not. | 11:13.58 |
| Ankur | ok | 11:14.31 |
| sebras | Ankur: mupdf.blogspot.com is not an official webpage belonging to the developers of mupdf. | 11:14.35 |
| Ankur | ok | 11:14.51 |
| | i m thinking it is mupdf's | 11:15.02 |
| | so i would to buy licenece | 11:15.20 |
| | buy for now | 11:15.42 |
| | meet you guys laternice talking with you all | 11:15.59 |
| | have a nice day | 11:16.06 |
| Robin_Watts | If you decide that GNU GPL MuPDF is not for you, then mail sales@artifex.com. | 11:16.18 |
| ray_laptop | Robin_Watts: looks like gxht_thresh_planes doesn't handle bits per component > 1. We have a potential customer (Surendra-san) that sent this in on Friday. Look like this was mostly your code, but I'm looking into it. | 23:26.55 |
| henrys | Robin_Watts: the name Geoff Cohen ring a bell? I think he's the director. | 23:39.03 |
