Hello everyone! I work for the Institute for System Programming of the Russian Academy of Sciences (ISP RAS). In collaboration with the Linux Foundation (LF) we are developing conformance tests for the interfaces included in the Linux Standard Base (LSB). In particular I am developing the tests for the fontconfig library. So I have some questions regarding the fontconfig documentation and I would appreciate if the developers of fontconfig could give me comments on the following matters. 1) FcNameRegisterObjectTypes + FcNameUnregisterObjectTypes + FcNameGetObjectType When registering object type with the same type and the same name more then once, lets consider twice, you should unregister this object type twice if you want the function FcNameGetObjectType not to return it. so here comes the question: Is this a feature or a bug of the fontconfig? The documentation says nothing on the question. (The same problem is with FcNameConstant+get+register+unregister) 2) Could you give more detailed information how FcCharSetFirstPage and FcCharSetNextPage work please, because the documentation on those ones is pretty unclear. 3) There are functions, which are included in the LSB and are not documented on the "http://fontconfig.org/fontconfig-devel/";. Here is the list of such functions: FcFontSetList FcFontSetMatch FcFontSetPrint FcFontSetSort FcFontSetSortDestroy FcValueEqual FcValuePrint FcStrSetEqual FcStrCmp FcPatternAddFTFace FcPatternAddLangSet FcPatternDuplicate FcPatternGetFTFace FcPatternGetLangSet FcPatternReference FcConfigEnableHome FcConfigHome FcFreeTypeCharSetAndSpacing FcLangSetAdd FcLangSetCompare FcLangSetContains FcLangSetCopy FcLangSetCreate FcLangSetDestroy FcLangSetEqual FcLangSetHasLang FcLangSetHash Could you say which of them are not documented by an oversight and which of them have to be excluded from the LSB as private functions of the fontconfig library. 4) IMHO There are some misprints both in documentation and in source of the fontconfig. a) In the documentation of the function FcUtf8ToUcs4 (http://fontconfig.org/fontconfig-devel/r3058.html) there should be "must" instead of "nust" in this part of the text "src nust be at least len bytes long." b) IMHO the name of those two functions should be FcConfigSetRescanInterval and FcConfigGetRescanInterval instead of FcConfigSetRescanInverval and FcConfigGetRescanInverval. There is "v" instead of "t" in the word Inverval (should be Interval). This misprint is in both the documentation as the source of the library.
