[Gtk-sharp-list] new Gdk.Pixbuf (svg_stream) fails on windows but works on unix

[thomas_wach]

Hello,

I am working with mono-2.0 an Linux (fc8) and Windows XP(SP3). I use
monodevelop 1.0. Everything compiled from source on my Linux box rund fine.
On my Windows box the provided setup mono-2.0-gtksharp-2.10.4-win32-5.exe
ist correctly installed and mods done to the mono-config file.

I created some SVG-icons with inkscape (icon_64x64), saved them to the
project folder and imported them as resources with monodevelop.

Here is the code that populates my combobox-store with the icons I need:

System.Reflection.Assembly ass =
System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
string[] resNames = ass.GetManifestResourceNames();
foreach (string resItemName in resNames) {
  try
  {
     if (resItemName.StartsWith("shape-") && (resItemName.EndsWith(".svg")
|| resItemName.EndsWith(".png"))) {
      System.IO.Stream s = ass.GetManifestResourceStream(resItemName);
      store.AppendValues ("   #" + resItemName.Substring(6,1) + "   ", new
Gdk.Pixbuf(s));
    }
  }
  catch (Exception e)
  {
    DebugMessage (e.ToString());
  }
}

This works PERFECT on my Linux box.

BUT on my Windows box I get the following error whem it tries to open a
.svg-file:

GLib.GException: Format der Bilddatei unbekannt (format of picturefile
unknown)
  at Gdk.PixbufLoader.Close () [0x00000] 
  at Gdk.PixbufLoader.InitFromStream (System.IO.Stream stream) [0x00000] 
  at Gdk.PixbufLoader..ctor (System.IO.Stream stream) [0x00000] 
  at Gdk.Pixbuf..ctor (System.IO.Stream stream) [0x00000] 
  at GladeApp..ctor (System.String[] args) [0x00000] 

Creating the pixbuf from the .png-icons contained in the manifested resource
works on both boxes!
Only the SVG-files do not.

The Windows box is PURE mono, so NO .NET 1.1 nor .Net 2.0 are installed
there.
So the gtksharp-sdk-2.10.3.exe is NOT installed, because it depends on .NET
1.1.

By the way, if I try to directly create a pixbuf with the FromFile-Method it
throws exceptions regarding a missing librsvg-2. But that IS NOT the case.
librsvg-2-2.dll and librsvg-2.dll (size 251kb) are correctly residing in
%MONOPATH%\bin !

Of course I searched the net, but all hints I found did not solved the
problem.
 - prior call Gtk.Application.Init() -> no change
 - referencing Mono.Cairo in the project -> no change
 - found some articels talking about a librsvg2-common, but find no valid
dll for win32 to setup or copy

Maybe the SVG-files themselves have some issues regardin DOCTYPE, DTD or
something else?
I do not think that the different line breaks in unix/windows are
responsible, do you?

Here is the header of the a sample SVG-file that does not load on windows:
(the complete SVG-file is attached)

I think I provided every information needed, but let me know, if I missed
some important.

Anyone got the same problem and get rid of it?
Anyone knows about special SVG-issues that could lead to this behaviour?

So far ...
Kind regards
Thomas
