Adds bounded binary generation-11 .vsd, .vss and .vst import through VisioDocument.LoadLegacyBinary. Path and stream overloads return the existing Visio model and conversion report, supporting modern drawing/stencil/template packages, SVG and diagram-page PDF conversion.

  • Recovers supported cached pages, masters, groups, text, geometry and paint through the existing model. Shared paint resolution preserves master/style/local precedence and independent RGB/transparency, including connector package reopening and subsequent alpha edits. Primitive fallback remains available for root masters and authored children without covering loaded text-only master children.
  • Uses the shared compound-container reader with input, decoded-byte, pointer/record, depth, item and text limits. Shared pointer subtrees retain bounded storage and charge logical traversal/depth at every reference; active content remains inert. Cancellation reaches shared normalization, package XML reading and model reconstruction, with a final check before returning the document.
  • Adds Reader content detection, conversion catalog entries, executable API examples and original-producer fixtures with provenance and hashes.

This is cached reconstruction with explicit loss diagnostics. Earlier binary generations fail explicitly. Binary source writing, arbitrary formula/field recalculation, broader producer coverage and exact native appearance remain outside the qualified profile; patterned SVG/PDF fills use a reported foreground approximation.

Validation covers independent producer and shared Reader boundaries. After the current master integration, cancellation/native/XML/bounds/primitive contracts pass 28 focused cases on .NET 8, and Reader schema, All preset, DjVu compatibility and native Visio integration contracts pass 73 focused cases on .NET 10. The unchanged Visio runtime retains its 1,754-case ordinary .NET 10 qualification. Independent producer/XML pairs, libvisio reopening/rendering and Poppler PDF checks supplement the managed tests. Unsigned Visio and Reader packages build for .NET Standard 2.0, .NET 8 and .NET 10 with existing dependencies. Microsoft Visio application acceptance remains open.

Walkthrough

The change adds bounded import of version 11 Visio binary drawings, stencils, and templates into the existing Visio model. It adds cached paint resolution, reader detection, conversion routes, cancellation-aware loading, and tests for import, fidelity, limits, and unsupported inputs.

Changes

Legacy Visio binary import

Layer / File(s) Summary
Bounded binary container parsing
OfficeIMO.Visio/LegacyBinary/*, OfficeIMO.Visio/VisioLegacyBinaryImportOptions.cs, OfficeIMO.Visio.Tests/Visio.LegacyBinary.Bounds.cs
Adds version 11 compound-file parsing, record and depth checks, decompression limits, and import options. Tests cover compressed-stream parsing, record-budget accounting, and shared-subtree depth enforcement.
Binary decoding and Visio document import
OfficeIMO.Visio/LegacyBinary/VisioLegacyBinaryCodec.*, OfficeIMO.Visio/VisioDocument.LegacyBinary.cs, OfficeIMO.Visio.Tests/Visio.LegacyBinary.cs, OfficeIMO.Visio.Tests/Fixtures/LegacyBinary/*
Decodes supported binary content into the existing model and adds path- and stream-based import methods with reports. Tests compare imports with paired XML fixtures, check conversion and failure cases, and exercise stream and budget handling.
Cached paint resolution and serialization
OfficeIMO.Visio/VisioNativePaintStyleResolver.cs, OfficeIMO.Visio/VisioDocument.LoadCore*, OfficeIMO.Visio/VisioDocument.SaveCore*, OfficeIMO.Visio/VisioShapeGeometry.cs, OfficeIMO.Visio.Tests/Visio.LegacyBinary.cs, OfficeIMO.Visio.Tests/Visio.NativeMasterFallback.cs
Applies cached native styles to shapes and connectors, updates inherited transparency handling, and serializes connector line transparency as modeled data. Tests cover paint values, rendering, and save/reload behavior.
Cancellation-aware Visio loading
OfficeIMO.Visio/LegacyXml/*, OfficeIMO.Visio/VisioDocument.Load*.cs, OfficeIMO.Visio/VisioDocument.LegacyXml.cs, OfficeIMO.Visio.Tests/Visio.Cancellation.cs
Passes cancellation tokens through legacy XML conversion and package loading. Adds cancellation checks during metadata, shape, connector, and comment processing, with tests for cancellation during conversion and loading.
Reader, conversion, and qualification integration
OfficeIMO.Reader.*, OfficeIMO.SharedSource/Compound/OfficeCompoundDocumentDetector.cs, OfficeIMO.Core/Compatibility/*, Website/data/office_conversion_routes.json, Build/CompatibilityCatalog/ConversionApiCompileContract.cs, OfficeIMO.Visio*/README.md, Docs/ROADMAP.md, README.md, .gitattributes, .github/workflows/dotnet-tests.yml, OfficeIMO.Visio.Tests/Visio.PowerPointVisioRoadmap.cs
Adds binary Visio detection and reader registration, five conversion routes and their support assessments, and API compile coverage. Documentation describes the version 11 profile and its limits. Fixture rules preserve binary bytes, and the Visio test command excludes the Performance category.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to af47e

The advertised .vst conversions select the template family. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to af47e

The new import path has explicit parsing limits, restricts output to macro-free package families, and publishes the document only after successful conversion. No concrete security regression was established. Deployment exposure and application-level handling of untrusted inputs remain unknown, so the assessment is not minimal.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The new reachable surface is binary parsing within the consuming application's process, using caller-supplied bytes or the caller's filesystem access. Reader increases format reachability without a visible identity transition. Actual upload exposure, tenant scope, service privileges, and sandbox boundaries cannot be established from these library entrypoints.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The byte-to-document boundary snapshots validated import options, applies bounded input reading, validates the compound document and generation, and enforces pointer, decoded-byte, projected-item, and text budgets. Reader carries forward the smaller configured input-byte limit.
  • observed — Binary import accepts only macro-free drawing, stencil, and template families. Its reconstruction report identifies unsupported binary carriers as lost or inert; package normalization rejects VBProjectData and creates internal document, page, and master relationships.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Separate codec and container instances own each operation's counters, caches, active-pointer set, and findings. This supports isolation between independent imports; it does not establish thread safety for concurrent access to the same caller stream or later document editing.

Use block-scoped namespaces in the new C# files.

Every new C# file in this cohort uses a file-scoped namespace (namespace OfficeIMO.Visio;). The repository guideline requires block-scoped namespaces with four-space indentation. The existing VisioDocument partials use block-scoped namespaces, so the new VisioDocument.LegacyBinary.cs partial is also inconsistent with its sibling files.

  • OfficeIMO.Visio/LegacyBinary/VisioBinaryContainer.cs#L4-L4: wrap VisioBinaryContainer and VisioBinaryData in namespace OfficeIMO.Visio { ... }. Keep the using directives outside the block.
  • OfficeIMO.Visio/VisioLegacyBinaryImportOptions.cs#L1-L1: convert to a block-scoped namespace.
  • OfficeIMO.Visio/LegacyBinary/VisioBinaryChunks.cs#L1-L1: convert to a block-scoped namespace.
  • OfficeIMO.Visio/LegacyBinary/VisioLegacyBinaryCodec.cs#L5-L5: convert to a block-scoped namespace.
  • OfficeIMO.Visio/LegacyBinary/VisioLegacyBinaryCodec.Names.cs#L3-L3: convert to a block-scoped namespace.
  • OfficeIMO.Visio/LegacyBinary/VisioLegacyBinaryCodec.Sheets.cs#L4-L4: convert to a block-scoped namespace.
  • OfficeIMO.Visio/LegacyBinary/VisioLegacyBinaryCodec.Values.cs#L5-L5: convert to a block-scoped namespace.
  • OfficeIMO.Visio/VisioDocument.LegacyBinary.cs#L5-L5: convert to a block-scoped namespace to match the other VisioDocument partials.
  • OfficeIMO.Visio.Tests/Visio.LegacyBinary.Bounds.cs#L5-L5: convert namespace OfficeIMO.Tests; to a block-scoped namespace.
  • OfficeIMO.Visio.Tests/Visio.LegacyBinary.cs#L8-L8: convert namespace OfficeIMO.Tests; to a block-scoped namespace.

As per coding guidelines: "Follow the repository C# style: use four-space indentation, block-scoped namespaces, and place using directives outside namespaces. Prefer explicit types over var."

Review comments at @Docs/ROADMAP.md:
- Line 432: Remove the description of implemented VDX/VSX/VTX and binary version
11 import profiles from the roadmap, keeping that documentation in the package
README; preserve the open extension item and link to the README from it if
needed.

Review comments at
@OfficeIMO.Core/Compatibility/OfficeConversionCapabilityCatalog.cs:
- Line 430: Update the representative expressions in
OfficeConversionCapabilityCatalog to preserve and expose the import report
instead of discarding it via `.Value`. Apply this to the binary Visio, stencil,
and template entries at
OfficeIMO.Core/Compatibility/OfficeConversionCapabilityCatalog.cs lines 430–432,
retaining the load result and its report before saving; also update the SVG and
PDF projection entries at lines 433–434 to expose the report separately from the
projection output.
- Around line 433-434: Update the visio-binary-svg and visio-binary-pdf routes
to select VisioPackageType.Template when the source is a .vst file, while
retaining Drawing for .vsd inputs, before SVG or PDF projection.

Review comments at @OfficeIMO.Visio/LegacyBinary/VisioBinaryContainer.cs:
- Around line 129-130: Update Expand to stop processing when it reads a flag
byte with no remaining items, rather than throwing InvalidDataException;
preserve existing handling for flag groups that contain data.

Review comments at @OfficeIMO.Visio/VisioShapeGeometry.cs:
- Around line 74-77: Update the no-geometry guard in the geometry path to apply
only when GetReferencedMasterChild(shape) returns a child; do not use
NativeStyleReferences as the discriminator, since ordinary package masters can
have it too. Preserve the existing geometry-section checks and fallback
rendering for ordinary master shapes.
