IgnoCodeLib implements complex graphics objects consisting of lines and cubic Bézier curves, simple text, geometric transforms, hierarchical display list and document structure, simple facilities for permutations and random numbers, and above all, export of graphics and text to the Adobe Illustrator 7.0 file format. This format can be read by all current versions of AI. All components in the document structure support cascading calls to
draw(),
transform() and
write() methods. Drawing to display and writing to file can sometimes be accomplished with a single line of code. Geometric transforms are nearly as easy. IgnoCodeLib is distributed under the
Gnu Lesser General Public License.
All the images in this Flickr set were created with this software.
The code is far from perfect, as is the documentation, but there are several examples that I hope will help people to use the code. The Javadocs are good enough to help people who read Javadocs, or so I hope. I will write tutorials, but at this moment it's better to release the library so people can hammer on it. There comes a point when you have have to shove your children out the door to play because they have too much energy to stay indoors.Thanks to phi.lho and amnon.owed for testing and advice.
