Antwort: DAV porting question (was Re (2): [Oberon] PC.Compile singularities)

[Edgar Schwarz]

Hi John,

don't care about DAVFonts !
DAVFonts, DAVObjects and DAVTexts are just "bluebottled" versions of Native
Fonts, Objects and Texts.
On Native you should just remove the ... := DAV... in the appropriate
Import statements and be done.
You also need not care about porting the whole client.
If you managed XML, XMLScanner, XMLObjects, XMLParser (more ?) then just be
done and send it to me
because the client side already changed in the meantime.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Edgar Schwarz

Hello Edgar,

I've been a little off focus on the DAV port,
but I'm looking at it again.  Now I've got
XML just about ported, but it's other
BlueBottle dependencies that have be held
up like DAVFonts.  Specifically DAVFonts
imports module Kernel.  Most of what Kernel
does in DAVFonts seems to be doable with
Out.String and Out.Ln, but there is a call
to Kernel.GetConfig:

PROCEDURE Init;
VAR s: ARRAY 8 OF CHAR;
BEGIN
  FontId := Objects.LibBlockId; NEW(theChar);
  Kernel.GetConfig("FontConv", s);
  conv := s[0] # "0";
  Objects.Register("Fnt", New)
END Init;

What's the purpose of this code, and is it
needed on non-BlueBottle systems?

Regards,

John M. Drake
