Guillaume, can you compare this to the usage of the MathTran webservice (for which contributed a very short macro found in xwiki jira) ? Could you provide a web-page about the MathTeX plugin. MathTeX seems to be a name that is used for several different things, among others a cgi script. Finally, could you provide syntax examples and coverage, if it is a home-grown TeX processor. thanks in advance paul Le 03-juin-09 à 11:23, Guillaume Legris a écrit :
Hi dev folks,
I developed a math plugin ("MathTex") to render LaTeX math expressions in XWiki.
Currently the plugin supports two formula renderer: - The default one (contained in xwiki-plugin-mathtex-core.jar) is LGPL and thus can be embedded in the XWiki packages - The other one is GPL (powered by JMathTex) and gives better results. It can used by adding the xwiki-plugin-mathtex-ext.jar to the classpath and adding a parameter to the xwiki.cfg to override the default renderer (xwiki .plugins .mathtex .builder =org.thenesis.xwiki.plugin.mathtex.JMathTexFormulaImageBuilder)
In order to work this plugin requires modifications of some parts of the XWiki default classes/files: - xwiki.cfg - macros.txt/macros.vm - struts-config.xml - XWikiRightServiceImpl.java (privileges for actions)
So an admin couldn't just grab it from the plugin zone and make it work out-of-the-box.
Hence I would like to propose this plugin for integration in XWiki with two alternatives: 1) Full integration 2) Partial integration (macros, struts-config.xml, XWikiRightServiceImpl.java changes) + users still have to load the plugin jar(s) from the plugin zone.
