Thank you, your patch seems to work. While Dia should obviously not crash, Dia will only load shape files that end in .shape, so it's slightly problematic to allow non-.shape shape files. Unfortunately, there is no way for the export interface to indicate error in the filename[1]. I think the better way to fix this problem would be to give a warning message in export_shape and return early if the suffix is not .shape. -Lars [1] The export interface is fairly rudimentary overall, it can't specify any arguments like size either (except very clumsily like the PNG export does). An improved export system would be nice, but is not at the top of my personal worklist. _______________________________________________ Dia-list mailing list Dia-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list FAQ at http://live.gnome.org/Dia/Faq Main page at http://live.gnome.org/Dia
