Last Call Comment: encoding breakage in idl conversion
- State:
- RAISED
- Product:
- SVG 1.1 F2 Last Call
- Raised by:
- Chris Lilley
- Opened on:
- 2010-08-12
- Description:
- I'm aware that the last call commenting period ended about a month ago
[1] but here goes: I was just crawling through the new specification
when I stumbled across unexpected characters in section "7.14.4
Interface SVGTransform" [2], such as "scale(…)", where the
unexpected characters are "…". As there are several occurrences, I'm
guessing that they were probably caused by some issue with the
generation scripts...? Update: I just confirmed the hypothesis and the
issue seems to be triggered by the several ellipsis characters ("…")
present in svg.idl [3]. Opening that file with an UTF-8 text editor
properly displays "scale(…)" (found in line 3078, for example).
Hope this helps,
Helder
