Short: 2D graphics library(static link library) Author: Cairo development team (http://www.cairographics.org), AROS port by Rob Norris (http://cataclysm.cx/git/) Uploader: inermis aros org Type: dev/lib Version: 1.5.8 Requires: dev/lib/pixman_i386-aros Architecture: i386-aros DESCRIPTION This is the AROS port of the Cairo 2D graphics library. The package includes the static link library dor i386-aros and the needed header files. Cairo is a 2D graphics library with support for multiple output devices. Currently supported output targets include the X Window System, win32, and image buffers. Experimental backends include OpenGL (through glitz), Quartz, XCB, PostScript and PDF file output. Cairo is designed to produce consistent output on all output media while taking advantage of display hardware acceleration when available (eg. through the X Render Extension). The cairo API provides operations similar to the drawing operators of PostScript and PDF. Operations in cairo including stroking and filling cubic Bézier splines, transforming and compositing translucent images, and antialiased text rendering. All drawing operations can be transformed by any affine transformation (scale, rotation, shear, etc.) Cairo is implemented as a library written in the C programming language, but bindings are available for several different programming languages. REQUIREMENTS Pixman link library. PNG and Z link library are optional but recommended. There might be a problem in combination with 'newer' versions of the AROS PNG library. Things work fine with older ones.
