[cairo] cairo_surface_supports_mime_type

[Jean Abou Samra]

Hi,

The Cairo documentation says

/**
  * SECTION:cairo-ps
  * @Title: PostScript Surfaces
  * @Short_Description: Rendering PostScript documents
  * @See_Also: #cairo_surface_t
  *
  * The PostScript surface is used to render cairo graphics to Adobe
  * PostScript files and is a multi-page vector surface backend.
  *
  * The following mime types are supported: %CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JPEG,
  * %CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_UNIQUE_ID,
  * %CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_CCITT_FAX, %CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_CCITT_FAX_PARAMS,
  * %CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_CCITT_FAX, %CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_CCITT_FAX_PARAMS,
  * %CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_EPS, %CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_EPS_PARAMS.



Indeed, I can successfully embed EPS images into generated
PS files using CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_EPS and CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_EPS_PARAMS
as explained in the docs.

However, later in the source code, there is

static const char *_cairo_ps_supported_mime_types[] =
{
     CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JPEG,
     CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_CCITT_FAX,
     CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_CCITT_FAX_PARAMS,
     NULL
};


This makes

cairo_surface_supports_mime_type (my_ps_surface, CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_EPS)

return false.

What am I missing?

Thanks,
Jean
