Empty batik.jar and version identification

[Daniel Boegner]

Hi all,

quick question at first: To subscribe I sent a mail with the subject and
content "subscribe" to the subscription mail adress. Was that the right way?
I did not recieve an verification email and my last registration to an
mailing list is long time ago. ^^

To the topic:
When I down load the current verions batik.zip file the batik.jar file is
empty! There are no packages and no classes included in the batik.jar!

There is only the META-INF directory with three files:
MANIFEST.MF
LICENSE (empty)
NOTICE (empty)

######### end of manifest of batik 1.7 #########


We have already had a batik.jar on our fileserver. There are classes
included in the file. It basically works, but I got Exceptions on some
input. That's why I wanted to try the current version. Actually I don't know
which version this batik.jar is. Here is the content of the manifest file:

######### begin of manifest of the unknown batik version #########
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Apache Ant 1.5.1
######### end of manifest of the unknown batik version #########

- Why there are no classes included in the current version of batik.jar? Is
it an mistake / error or did I miss some important documentation or change
in the API?
- How / Where can I download a up-to-date and working batik.jar?
- Maybe it would help to identify the version of the old batik.jar. How do I
do this?

Background: I am using Anty Samy from OWASP to filter out JavaScript from
HTML input and batik is a dependency of anti samy.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I suspect it already had you registered, and decided to do nothing, but I
do not know for sure.

There was a reorgnization of the jarfiles some time ago (at 1.6 or 1.7?).
Most stuff moved to lib/batik-*.

See above.

If you include the "empty" batik.jar, and all of its referents, it will
probably work, modulo the usual classloader nonsense. It seems not much
changed between 1.6 and 1.7 that anything else depended on-at least that
has been my experience. You could also unzip all the other jars, and glue
them back together, of course (assuming they are disjoint).

org.apache.batik.Version should have the version, which you can query
programmatically (.getVersion()), or with your favorite hex editor or
disassembler: whichever you think is faster.

Hi all,

quick note at first: I send this question to the mailing list last week.
Today I saw that there was a verification mail for subscription. I don't
know if my first email has been broadcastet through the mailing list. I
don't think so. That's why I try it again with this mail. If the first mail
came in, please answer to the first one and ignore this mail. Sry for
inconvenience.
