* docs/VERSION.DLL: updating document to better explain the differences between
the three version numbers being used on Unix, as well as provide the AutoConf
fragment provided by Lars Clausen
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (gray_render_conic): fixed small bug that
prevented bezier arcs with negative vertical coordinates to be rendered
appropriately
2002-11-27 Vincent Caron <v.caron@zerodeux.net>
* builds/unix/unix-def.in, builds/unix/freetype-config.in,
builds/unix/configure.ac, src/gzip/rules.mk, src/gzip/ftgzip.c:
adding support for system zlib installations when available on the
target platform (Unix only)
* include/freetype/config/ftoption.h, src/gzip/ftgzip.c: added
support for the FT_CONFIG_OPTION_SYSTEM_ZLIB option, used to specify
the use of system-wide zlib.
Note that this macro, as well as FT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER,
is not #undef-ed anymore. This allows the build system to define them
depending on the configuration (typically by adding -D flags at
compile time).
* src/sfnt/ttcmap0.c (tt_face_build_cmaps): removed compiler warnings
in optimized mode relative to the "volatile" local variables. This was
not a compiler bug after all, but the fact that a pointer to a volatile
variable is not the same than a volatile pointer to a variable :-)
the fix was to change "volatile FT_Byte* p"
into "FT_Byte* volatile p"
* src/pfr/pfrload.c, src/pfr/pfrdrivr.c, src/gzip/inftrees.c: removed
compiler warnings in optimized modes
* src/gzip/*.[hc]: modified our ZLib copy in order to prevent exporting
any zlib function names outside of the component. This prevents linking
problems on some platforms, when applications want to link FreeType
_and_ ZLib together.
2002-11-05 Juliusz <jch@pps.jussieu.fr>
* src/psaux/psobjs.c (ps_table_add): modified increment loop in
order to implement exponential behaviour
include/freetype/config/ftmodule.h: updated to correctly support
sub-pixel rendering
* include/freetype/cache/ftcimage.h, include/freetype/cache/ftcsbits.h,
src/cache/ftcimage.c, src/cache/ftcsbit.c: updated to support sub-pixel
rendering correctly. Definition of FTC_ImageTypeRec that replaces the
obsolete FTC_ImageDesc, and has slightly different fields. The
image type is now determined directly by "load_flags" values.
* src/autohint/ahtypes.h, src/autohint/ahhint.c,
src/pshinter/pshalgo3.c, src/pshinter/pshalgo3.h: various enhancements
to the automatic and Postscript hinters !! and sub-pixel hinting now
works correctly (see demo programs)
want to list them all here. The operations performed were all logical
transformations of the sources:
- trying to convert all enums and constants to CAPITALIZED_STYLE, with
#define definitions like
#define my_old_constants MY_NEW_CONSTANT
- big, big update of the documentation comments
* include/freetype/freetype.h, src/base/ftobjs.c, src/smooth/ftsmooth.c,
include/freetype/ftimage.h: adding support for LCD-optimized rendering
though the new constants/enums:
FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD, FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD_V
FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD, FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD_V
this is still work in progress, don't expect everything to work correctly
though most of the features have been implemented.
* adding new FT_LOAD_XXX flags, used to specify both hinting and rendering
targets:
FT_LOAD_TARGET_NORMAL :: anti-aliased hinting & rendering
FT_LOAD_TARGET_MONO :: monochrome bitmaps
FT_LOAD_TARGET_LCD :: horizontal RGB/BGR decimated hinting & rendering
FT_LOAD_TARGET_LCD_V :: vertical RGB/BGR decimated hinting & rendering
note that FT_LOAD_TARGET_NORMAL is 0, which means that the default
behaviour of the font engine is _unchanged_.
src/autohint/ahangles.h, src/autohint/ahglyph.c, src/autohint/ahhint.c,
src/autohint/ahtypes.h: the automatic and Postscript hinter now
automatically detect inflection points in glyph outlines and treats
them specially. This is very useful to prevent nasty effect like the
disappearing diagonals of "S" and "s" in many, many fonts..
incorrect advances when the outline resolution was different from the
metrics resolution
* src/autohint/ahhint.c: removing compiler warnings
* src/autohint/ahglyph.c: slight improvements to the serif detection
code. More work is needed though..
* src/autohint/ahglobal.c, src/autohint/ahtypes.h, src/autohint/ahhint.c:
small improvements to the automatic hinter. un-even stem-widths have now
disappeared and everything looks much better, even if there are still
issues with serifed fonts.
changed the names of memory macros. Examples:
MEM_Set => FT_MEM_SET
MEM_Copy => FT_MEM_COPY
MEM_Move => FT_MEM_MOVE
ALLOC => FT_ALLOC
FREE => FT_FREE
REALLOC = >FT_REALLOC
FT_NEW was introduced to allocate a new object from a _typed_
pointer..
note that ALLOC_ARRAY and REALLOC_ARRAY have been replaced
by FT_NEW_ARRAY and FT_RENEW_ARRAY which take _typed_ pointer
arguments.
This results in _lots_ of sources being changed, but makes the
code more generic and less error-prone..
unpleasant overwrites in the case of invalid glyph data (found in
the output of buggy font converters)
the computation of auto-hinted stem widths has been modified to
avoid certain color fringes in LCD-decimation rendering (a.k.a.
"ClearType")
* src/pshinter/pshalgo2.c (psh2_hint_table_init),
src/pshinter/pshalgo1.c (psh1_hint_table_init): removed compiler
warnings
* include/freetype/cache/*, src/cache/*: yet another massive rewrite of
the caching sub-system, in order to both increase performance and allow
simpler cache sub-classing. As an example, the code for the image and
sbit caches is now much simpler
I still need to update the documentation in www/freetype2/docs/cache.html
to reflect the new design though..
produces smoother glyphs at small sizes for very little cost
* src/autohint/ahglyph.c, src/autohint/ahhint.c: various fixes to
the auto-hinter. They merely improve the output of sans-serif fonts.
Note that there are still problems with serifed fonts and composites
(accented characters)
* tests/gview.c: updated the debugging glyph viewer to show the
hints generated by the "autohint" module
details.
* include/freetype/internal/cfferrs.h,
include/freetype/internal/tterrors.h,
include/freetype/internal/t1errors.h: Removed. Replaced with files
local to the module. All extra error codes have been moved to
`fterrors.h'.
* src/sfnt/ttpost.h: Move error codes to `fterrors.h'.
* src/autohint/aherrors.h, src/cache/ftcerror.h, src/cff/cfferrs.h,
src/cid/ciderrs.h, src/pcf/pcferror.h, src/psaux/psauxerr.h,
src/psnames/psnamerr.h, src/raster/rasterrs.h, src/sfnt/sferrors.h,
src/smooth/ftsmerrs.h, src/truetype/tterrors.h,
src/type1/t1errors.h, src/winfonts/fnterrs.h: New files defining the
error names for the module it belongs to.
* include/freetype/ftmoderr.h: New file, defining the module error
offsets. Its structure is similar to `fterrors.h'.
* include/freetype/fterrors.h (FT_NOERRORDEF): New macro.
(FT_ERRORDEF): Redefined to use module error offsets.
All internal error codes are now public; unused error codes have
been removed, some are new.
* include/freetype/config/ftheader.h (FT_MODULE_ERRORS_H): New
macro.
* include/freetype/config/ftoption.h
(FT_CONFIG_OPTION_USE_MODULE_ERRORS): New macro.
All other source files have been updated to use the new error codes;
some already existing (internal) error codes local to a module have
been renamed to give them the same name as in the base module.
All make files have been updated to include the local error files.
* src/cid/cidtokens.h: Replaced with...
* src/cid/cidtoken.h: This file for 8+3 consistency.
* src/raster/ftraster.c: Use macros for header file names.
created incorrect scale factors !!
* src/autohint/ahglobal.c, src/autohint/ahglyph.c, src/autohint/ahhint.c:
fixed the incorrect blue zone computations, and improved the composite
support. Note that these changes result in improved rendering, while
sometimes introducing their own artefacts. That's probably the last
big change to the autohinter before the introduction of its complete
replacement..
* include/freetype/config/ftheader.h: removed obsolete macros like
FT_SOURCE_FILE, etc.. and added cache-specific macro definitions that
were previously defined in <freetype/ftcache.h>. Added comments to be
included in a new API Reference section.
* src/*/*: removed the use of FT_SOURCE_FILE, etc.. now, each component
needs to added its own directory to the include path at compile time.
Modified all "rules.mk" and "descrip.mms" accordingly..
`disable_horz_edges', `disable_vert_edges'.
* src/autohint/ahhint.c (ah_hint_edges_3, ah_hinter_hint_edges): Use
them (and remove static variables with the same names).
* src/pcf/pcfutil.c (BitOrderInvert): Add `const'.
* docs/glnames.py: Updated to latest pstables.h changes.
* src/psnames/pstables.h: Add more `const'.
* src/pcf/pcfutil.c: Ditto.
* src/base/ftglyph.c (FT_Glyph_To_Bitmap): Fixing typo
(FT_Glyph_Done -> FT_Done_Glyph).
* include/freetype/ttnameid.h: Added some new Microsoft language
codes and LCIDs as found in Office Xp.
* builds/hurd/detect.mk: New file. Added support to detect the GNU
Hurd operating system as Unix-like. Fix submitted by Anthony Fok
<foka@debian.org>.
* src/type1/t1gload.c (T1_Load_Glyph): Set glyph control data to the
the Type 1 glyph charstring (used by conversion programs).
Submitted by Ha Shao <hashao@chinese.com>.
* src/base/ftgrays.c (grays_sweep): The function didn't exit
immediately if `num_cells' was 0 as it should. Thanks to Boris for
finding this out.
* src/base/ftglyph.c (FT_Glyph_To_Bitmap): Fixed memory leak when
bitmap rendering fails (thanks to Graham Asher).
* docs/docmaker.py, include/freetype/*.h: Updated the DocMaker
script to support chapters and section block ordering. Updated the
public header files accordingly.
* src/base/ftglyph.c (FT_Glyph_Copy): Advance width and glyph format
were not correctly copied.
include/freetype/internal/internal.h: fixed header inclusion macros
to use direct definitions. This is the only way to do these things
in a portable way :-( The rest of the code should follow shortly
though everything compiles now..
* builds/compiler/intelc.mk, builds/compiler/watcom.mk,
builds/win32/detect.mk: added support for the Intel C/C++ compiler,
as well as _preliminary_ (read: doesn't work !!) support for Watcom.
Also added a new setup target. Type "make setup list" for a list
of supported command-line compilers on Win32..
Removed. ANSI C doesn't (explicitly) allow macro expansion in
arguments using `##'.
(FT2_PUBLIC_FILE, FT2_CONFIG_FILE, FT2_INTERNAL_FILE): Use directory
names directly. Make them configurable. Use `##' to strip leading
and trailing spaces from arguments.
* builds/unix/ft2unix.h: Adapted.
* src/base/ftsystem.c (ft_alloc, ft_realloc, ft_free, ft_io_stream,
ft_close_stream): Use FT_CALLBACK_DEF.
* builds/unix/ftsystem.c: Use new header scheme.
(FT_Done_Memory): Use free() from FT_Memory structure.
* src/base/ftinit.c, src/base/ftmac.c: Header scheme fixes.
* include/freetype/config/ft2build.h (FT2_CONFIG_ROOT,
FT2_PUBLIC_FILE, FT2_CONFIG_FILE, FT2_INTERNAL_FILE,
FT_SOURCE_FILE): Use `##' operator to be really ANSI C compliant.
objects:
FT_Face_Internal, FT_Size_Internal, FT_Slot_Internal
these contain some fields that may change between releases
of FreeType, without affecting the size of FT_FaceRec,
FT_SizeRec, FT_GlyphSlotRec, etc.., which means that
drivers wouldn't need to be recompiled if we only add new
fields to an internal structure..
I plan to hack a few things related to the auto-hinter and
I need this move to ensure that we will not break binary
compatibility between 2.0 and 2.1 :-)
