The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: GFL::Image
DSLIP: adpOp
description: high-level OO Wrapper for GFL
userid: GGARAND (Germain Garand)
chapterid: 18 (Images_Pixmaps_Bitmaps)
communities:
comp.lang.perl.modules
similar:
GD Image::Magick
rationale:
GFL is the name of the cross-platform C library for which this
module is an Object Oriented wrapper - it stands for Graphic File
Library - see www.xnview.org
It is similar to GD, but with a stress put on the very high number
of exotic graphic formats supported (more than 300).
Thus this proposal to adopt the same naming scheme than GD :
GFL -> low-level wrapper
GFL::Image -> high-level Object Oriented wrapper which inherits the
above.
This structure seems the most relevant as it is coherent with the
inheritance scheme. Moreover, it seems unlikely that a three letters
capitalized acronym like this one could clash with future root names
as there are 26^3 = 17576 other 3 letters combinations. At last, GFL
is actively developped since 2 years and is likely to gain a large
fame as a "swiss-knife" for image importation.
