SVG Path importer
Aug 3rd, 2005, 3:47am  
I'm working on a new SVG bezier path importer similar to the one I wrote for Manifest, the a-life looking project. http://users.design.ucla.edu/~mflux/manifest/

The code currently looks like this. I still have a few features I want to add before I pack it up as a first version of the library. Code will be in a rep



Right now it only works for a few SVG commands, as it is not meant to be a full blown SVG converter. However, it is mainly used to transfer bezier lines from Adobe Illustrator into processing.

I want to eventually add a tween-morph feature between two similar SVGs so that one can easily create SVG procedural animations.

Here's a screenshot of the importer working:

Any feedback would be great. Thanks!

Here's the importer

Here's the file used to run an example

The reason I didn't use the xml library is because I didn't want my library to be dependant on another library. I'm not sure if that was the right move, but I did it anyway... lol

Thanks for this.
I'll be able to use part of this code for some libraries I'm working on.

I like how you dealt with creating subpaths and dynamically resizeble arrays.

cheerss!!
