一、简介
cairo 是一个免费的矢量绘图软件库,它可以绘制多种输出格式。cairo 支持许多平台,包括 Linux、BSD、Microsoft® Windows® 和 OSX(BeOS 和 OS2 后端也正在开发)。Linux 绘图可以通过 X Window 系统、Quartz、图像缓冲格式或 OpenGL 上下文来实现。另外,cairo 还支持生成 PostScript 或 PDF 输出,从而产生高质量的打印结果。在理想情况下,cairo 的用户可以在打印机和屏幕上获得非常接近的输出效果。
专业术语
1、环境 (Context)
使用 Cairo 绘图,必须要首先创建 Cairo 环境 (Context)。Cairo 环境保存着所有的图形状态参数,这些参数描述了图形的构成,譬如线条宽度、颜色、要绘制的外观 (Surface) 以及其它一些信息。Cairo 环境允许真正的绘图函数使用很少的一部分参数,以此提高接口的易用性。调用 gdk_cairo_create () 函数可为所绘制的图形创建一个 Cairo 环境。
cairo_t * cr;
cr = gdk_cairo_create (widget->window);
这两行代码创建了一个 Cairo 环境,并且这个 Cairo 环境是关联到 GdkDrawable 对象上的。cairo_t 结构体包含了当前渲染设备的状态,也包含了所绘制图形的坐标。从技术上来讲,cairo_t 就是所谓的 Cairo 环境。
Cairo 所有的绘图函数都要去操作 cairo_t 对象。一个 Cairo 环境可以被关联到一种特定的外观,譬如 pdf、svg、png、GdkDrawable 等。
GDK 没有对 Cairo API 进行封装,它只允许创建一个可基于 GdkDrawable 对象绘制图形的 Cairo 环境。有一些 GDK 函数可以将 GDK 的矩形或填充区域转换为 Cairo Path (路径),然后使用 Cairo 绘图与渲染。
2、路径 (Path)
一条 Path(路径)通常是由一条或多条首尾相接的直线段构成的,也可以由直线段与曲线段构成。路径可分为 Open(开放)类型与 Closed(闭合)类型,前者的首尾端点不重合,后者的首尾端点重合。
在 Cairo 中,绘图要从一条空路径开始,首先定义一条路径,然后通过绘制/填充操作使之可见。要注意的是,每次调用 cairo_stroke () 或 cairo_fill () 函数之后,路径会被清空,不得不再定义新的路径。
一条路径可由一些子路径构成。
3、源 (Source)
源好比绘图中所使用的画笔/颜料,使用它来绘制/填充图形轮廓。有 4 种基本的源:color、gradient、pattern 与 image。
4、外观 (Surface)
Surface 就是要绘制图形的最终体现形式,譬如可使用 PDF 或 PostScript 外观实现文本内容的渲染,或者使用 Xlib、Win32 外观实现屏幕绘图。
Cairo 具体有那些外观类型,可参考其定义:
typedef enum _cairo_surface_type { CAIRO_SURFACE_TYPE_IMAGE, CAIRO_SURFACE_TYPE_PDF, CAIRO_SURFACE_TYPE_PS, CAIRO_SURFACE_TYPE_XLIB, CAIRO_SURFACE_TYPE_XCB, CAIRO_SURFACE_TYPE_GLITZ, CAIRO_SURFACE_TYPE_QUARTZ, CAIRO_SURFACE_TYPE_WIN32, CAIRO_SURFACE_TYPE_BEOS, CAIRO_SURFACE_TYPE_DIRECTFB, CAIRO_SURFACE_TYPE_SVG, CAIRO_SURFACE_TYPE_OS2 } cairo_surface_type_t;
5、蒙板 (Mask)
在源作用于外观之前,可对其实现过滤,蒙板 (mask) 即是过滤器。蒙板决定哪些源可被显示。蒙板不透明的部分允许复制源至外观,蒙板透明的部分则禁止复制源至外观。、
6、图案 (Pattern)
图案表示被绘制到外观的源。在 Cairo 中,图案是一种可以读取的内容,可用作绘图操作的源或蒙板。图案可以是纯色模式、基于外观的模式以及渐变模式。
二、编译与安装
参考:http://cairographics.org/download/
执行以下命令,即可完成安装
sudo yum install cairo-devel

程序4:在 GTK 窗口中使用 Cairo 绘制图形
要在 GTK+ 窗口中绘制 Cairo 图形,可以使用 GtkDrawingArea widget 或者更为简单的 GtkWindow widget,本例选择 GtkWindow 。由 GtkWindow widget 对 expose-event 信号处理后,默认要重新绘制窗口背景,这会将我们在 on_expose_event () 函数中定义的 Cairo 图形覆盖掉,因此需要调用 gtk_widget_set_app_paintable () 函数通知 GTK+ 不要这么干。如果是在 GtkDrawingArea widget 中绘制 Cairo 图形,则可省区这一步。
#include <cairo.h> #include <gtk/gtk.h> static gboolean on_expose_event (GtkWidget * widget, GdkEventExpose * event, gpointer data) { cairo_t *cr; cr = gdk_cairo_create (widget->window); cairo_set_source_rgb (cr, 0.627, 0, 0); cairo_select_font_face (cr, "WenQuanYi Zen Hei", CAIRO_FONT_SLANT_NORMAL, CAIRO_FONT_WEIGHT_NORMAL); cairo_set_font_size (cr, 24.0); cairo_move_to (cr, 10.0, 34.0); cairo_show_text (cr, "编程艺术"); cairo_destroy (cr); return FALSE; } int main (int argc, char *argv[]) { GtkWidget *window; gtk_init (&argc, &argv); window = gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL); g_signal_connect (window, "expose-event", G_CALLBACK (on_expose_event), NULL); g_signal_connect (window, "destroy", G_CALLBACK (gtk_main_quit), NULL); gtk_window_set_position (GTK_WINDOW (window), GTK_WIN_POS_CENTER); gtk_window_set_default_size (GTK_WINDOW (window), 320, 48); gtk_widget_set_app_paintable (window, TRUE); gtk_widget_show_all (window); gtk_main (); return 0; }
