> So we are discussing how we can join efforts to start adding poppler

> agreements that I want to share with you so you can add comments/
> regards/ questions/ etc. These are by no mean sealed plans, I only try

>
> 1. To start a "plain core js" API in C++ that will use poppler core
> API and will follow as close as possible the PDF JS API [1]
> 2. Each frontend, glib and qt, can then decide how they will bind
> these API to their frontends.
>
> Notes:
> a) Of course, will coding 1, we will need to add functionality to core
> poppler that is not there yet, like for instance, support for
> Javascript Actions.
> b) the plain core js api in 1 should be probably very easy, as it
> should wrap more or less directly from the core poppler, but we choose
> this way so the code can be shared by Okular and Evince.
> c) Just for completness, I give more details about the glib frontend,
> in which I plan to hack: Our idea in 2) is to wrap  the "plain core
> js" api into a GObject API, and then use the automatic
> GObject-Javascript glue that (will be) is provided to us by Seed using
> gobject-introspection (BTW, in this case the Javascript engine comes
> from Webkit).
