Transcode SVG files to compiled java painting code

Welcome to svg2java The purpose of this library is to load SVG files and generate java code out of it. Currently I have implemented a transcoder to convert the SVG files to Java2D code. Why this project What is the benefit of this? When you want to use scalable graphics in your code, e.g. icons that you want use in different sizes, SVG would be a good way to go. But to use SVG graphics in java you would have to bundle a SVG library like Batik or Salamander that have a big fingerprint and may bloat your product. To transcode the graphics may give you the advantage of scalable graphics without this dependency. It has also the advantage that the painting is no longer interpreted but compiled painting code that will be faster. The size of the generated classes is nearly the same as the size of the original SVG files put in a jar or with pac200 you might even save some space there too. So transcoding the files gives you all the bene
