(Updated Jan. 13, 2017, 1:22 p.m.) Review request for KDE Frameworks, kdewin, Alex Merry, Christoph Feck, and Hannah von Reth. Changes ------- Now using QtIcoHandler from Qt 5.6.2 which has the same LGPL 2.1 as the rest of ksvg2ico and should be fine. I'm investigating using `QImageWriter` though, no need to maintain extra code if it is already available in Qt itself. Repository: kiconthemes Description ------- Recently I committed a few changes to `ecm_add_app_icon` that make use of the fact that KIconThemes includes a `ksvg2icns` utility, making it possible to generate an application icon from an SVG file instead of from a series of PNG files. With the present patch I propose to add an updated and extensively rewritten version of the ageing `svg2ico` tool from the KDEWin project to KIconThemes. The goal is to have a proper and up-to-date tool to generate application icons from SVG on MS Windows too. This new version (named `ksvg2ico` in line with `ksvg2icns`) is a standalone tool that combines SVG - PNG conversion with PNG - ICO conversion. More accurately: it renders SVG files to an internal bitmap and then saves those bitmaps (as BMP?) to the .ico file. - it now handles sizes up to 256x256, in part thanks to syncing `QtIcoHandler` with the version from Qt 5.7 - for that it uses a private copy of that class, with the unused read support disabled. (qicohandler.h isn't available on Mac and Linux so I cannot check building against Qt's internal version). - a `--rcfile` option is provided, copied from `png2ico`. - the PNG files are still saved and are left for debugging when `--debug` is given. I considered proposing it to KDEWin instead, but in the end I liked the idea better to provide icon conversion utilities for Mac and Windows with a framework, where they might also serve in a less KDE-centric context (and cross-platform development).
