0750777c TC |
3 | Imager 0.71_02 - 1 Dec 2009 |
4 | ============== | |
5 | ||
48ad0e66 TC |
6 | - adjust the way we load the threads module for the threads test so |
7 | it works with non-threaded perls | |
0750777c | 8 | |
b89f0fcd | 9 | Imager 0.71_01 - 30 Nov 2009 |
e41cfe8f TC |
10 | =========== |
11 | ||
12 | Bug fixes: | |
13 | ||
14 | - use scanline oriented operations to flip images instead of pixel | |
15 | operations | |
16 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39278 | |
17 | ||
18 | - use double/sample operations to flip large sample images instead of | |
19 | 8-bit sample operations. | |
20 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39280 | |
21 | ||
de3ca2fd TC |
22 | - fix POD nits |
23 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=51874 | |
24 | ||
ffddd407 TC |
25 | - prevent double-frees when someone creates Imager objects and then |
26 | creates a thread. Note: this just handles some simple cases, | |
27 | Imager doesn't support perl threads, and isn't likely to. | |
28 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=52268 | |

6a3cbaef TC |
31 | =========== |
32 | ||
a16bae72 TC |
33 | - add the opacity fill type - an adaptor that modifies the opacity of |
34 | another fill. | |
35 | ||
6a3cbaef TC |
36 | Bug fixes: |
37 | ||
38 | - the conv filter now enforces that the sum of the coefficients is | |
39 | non-zero. Also, rather than skipping pixels off the edge off the | |
40 | edge of the image, the closest edge pixel is used. Previously | |
41 | dividing by the zero sum of coefficients could cause invalid | |
42 | results or runtime exceptions. | |
43 | Thanks to David Cantrell's Alpha-NetBSD CPAN test box for revealing | |
44 | this bug. | |
45 | ||
189d5775 | 46 | Imager 0.70 - 21 Sep 2009 |
2b82e731 TC |
47 | =========== |
48 | ||
49 | Bug fixes: | |
50 | ||
51 | - release image row and comments memory on all error returns in gif | |
52 | reader | |
53 | ||
54 | - handle zero length extensions, previously this would cause a null | |
55 | pointer dereference | |
56 | Thanks to Krzysztof WojtaÅ for the test data and fix for this. | |
57 | ||
b3afeed5 TC |
58 | - an integer division meant that preview scaling to below 1 pixel |
59 | wide or high (which isn't too useful anyway) was calculating using | |
60 | NaNs on most platforms, and causing an exception on others. | |
61 | Thanks to David Cantrell for producing a backtrace of the crash on | |
62 | his Alpha-NetBSD CPAN test box which made it possible to track this | |
63 | down. | |
64 | ||
b1e29946 | 65 | Imager 0.69 - 08 Sep 2009 |
25f4e775 TC |
66 | =========== |
67 | ||
b1e29946 | 68 | Bug fixes: |
25f4e775 TC |
69 | |
70 | - broken test fix - was attempting to call a function skip_all, when | |
71 | that should be a parameter to plan(). | |
72 | ||
b1e29946 TC |
73 | - briefly document apidocs.perl, the tool used to build |
74 | Imager::APIRef and make some minor enhancements | |
75 | ||
76 | - various minor documentation enhancements and fixes. | |
77 | ||
5920304a | 78 | Imager 0.68 - 07 Sep 2009 |
c5f447ac TC |
79 | =========== |
80 | ||
3c252111 TC |
81 | - Imager->new(file => $filename) and other similar incantations will |
82 | load the given file. | |
83 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=48261 | |
84 | ||
c5f447ac TC |
85 | Bug fixes: |
86 | ||
87 | - avoid using CHECK as a label in Imager::Test | |
88 | http://nntp.x.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/5220921 | |
89 | ||
0d670555 TC |
90 | - re-work most image file test files that require a library into |
91 | separate library present/not present files to remove stupidly long | |
92 | conditionals | |
93 | ||
94 | - don't treat rubthrough() outside the bounds of the target image as | |
95 | an error. | |
96 | http://nntp.x.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/5185716 | |
97 | ||
8d800216 TC |
98 | Imager 0.67_01 - 02 Sep 2009 |
99 | ============== | |
500888da TC |
100 | |
101 | Bug fixes: | |
102 | ||
103 | - correct documentation of default of raw image interleave read | |
104 | parameter | |
105 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=42074 | |
106 | ||
107 | - add raw_ prefix to raw read parameters, though the original names | |
108 | still work. | |
109 | ||
110 | - fail the read if an invalid raw_interleave parameter is supplied | |
111 | ||
112 | - warn if no interleave or raw_interleave parameter is supplied, | |
113 | since the documented default was wrong, and incompatible with the | |
114 | write format | |
115 | ||
116 | - for reading raw images, if raw_storechannels > raw_datachannels, | |
117 | set the extra channels in the image to 0 | |
118 | ||
cd476e58 TC |
119 | - when probing for executables like freetype-config, search for .bat |
120 | and .cmd on MSWin32, as well as .exe. | |
121 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=49275 | |
500888da | 122 | |
f9a39263 TC |
123 | - re-work the external libraries section of README: |
124 | - list Debian and Redhat package names for each library | |
125 | - reformatting | |
126 | - update URLs | |
127 | ||
f45b774f TC |
128 | - use the new EU::MM META_MERGE facility instead of generating |
129 | META.yml from scratch | |
130 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=47888 | |
131 | ||
d6b51d8c TC |

143 | ||
cca21862 | 144 | Imager 0.66 - 12 Dec 2008 |
3c8fee33 TC |
145 | =========== |
146 | ||
6b22ba84 TC |
147 | - 24-bit color .ICO/.CUR files can now be read. |
148 | ||
3c8fee33 TC |
149 | Bug fixes: |
150 | ||
6b22ba84 TC |
151 | - an optimization skipping 0 src alpha values could cause the |
152 | rubthrough() to read past the end of a buffer. | |
153 | http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2008/05/msg1509184.html | |
154 | ||
5c0d0ddf TC |
155 | - corrected a reference leak where writing GIFs would leak memory. |
156 | This could also happen calling to_paletted(). | |
157 | Also documented the underlying long existing feature where the | |
158 | colors parameter is filled with the generated color table and added | |
159 | tests for it. | |
3c8fee33 TC |
160 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=41028 |
161 | ||
8e7f5809 TC |
162 | - write out the image size in bytes field of a BMP correctly. |
163 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=41406 | |
164 | ||
c586eb58 TC |
165 | - add limited tests for Imager::ExtUtils |
166 | ||
167 | - make Imager::ExtUtils->includes use an absolute path, since | |
168 | a relative path could cause failures using Inline::C. | |
169 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=37353 | |
170 | ||
6b22ba84 TC |
171 | - re-arrange the POD for Imager::Font::BBox: |
172 | - mark total_width(), pos_width(), end_offset() obsolete, since | |
173 | they're mostly for backwards compatibility | |
174 | - group width methods and height methods | |
175 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39999 | |
17d9fe35 | 176 | |
0727e3f5 | 177 | Imager 0.65 - 20 May 2008 |
546ea21c TC |
178 | =========== |
179 | ||
180 | Bug fixes: | |
181 | ||
182 | - In some cases when an error occurs reading those parts of a JPEG | |
183 | file after the image the scan-line buffer could be freed a second | |
184 | time. In cases where the the error occured while reading the image | |
185 | data it's possible that the buffer could have leaked. | |
186 | Thanks to Gabriel Vasseur for reporting this and help in tracking | |
187 | it down. | |
188 | ||
43b2b326 TC |
189 | - the gif_screen_height tag was overriding the screen width and being |
190 | ignored for the screen height when present. | |

e02d22d2 | 193 | Imager 0.64 - 23 April 2008 |
de470892 TC |
194 | =========== |
195 | ||
e02d22d2 TC |
196 | This is a bug fix release. This includes a fix for a possible |
197 | security issue. | |
198 | ||
de470892 TC |
199 | Bug fixes: |
200 | ||
e02d22d2 TC |
201 | - Possible security issue: The floating point sample path for image |
202 | based fills had a buffer overflow. This would overwrite the end of | |
203 | a malloc()ed buffer with double precision floats. | |
204 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35324 | |
6912d85a | 205 | CVE-2008-1928 |
e02d22d2 | 206 | |
de470892 TC |
207 | - check that the result of fileno($fh) is defined rather than simply |
208 | true when read() or write() is supplied with an fh parameter. | |
209 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35139 | |
210 | ||
211 | - i_scale_axis() wasn't checking the result of i_img_new_ch() | |
212 | resulting in a SIGSEGV when attempting to scale an image to a size | |
213 | too large to fit in memory. This is a NULL pointer access issue, | |
214 | not a buffer overflow. | |
215 | Added a check for the failure. | |
216 | scale_calculate() (and hence scale()) will now fail if any of the | |
217 | scale size parameters are a reference. | |
218 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35172 | |
219 | ||
04f85f63 TC |
220 | - Regression: filling a greyscale image with a hatch used the wrong |
221 | color channels from the supplied fg/bg colors. | |
222 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35278 | |
223 | ||
a256aec5 TC |
224 | - fixed a related problem for image fills. |
225 | ||
49240201 | 226 | Imager 0.63 - 7 April 2008 |
33b0ffa6 TC |
227 | =========== |
228 | ||
242d7497 TC |
229 | This release primarily contains changes to improve ease of use - |
230 | rather than you having to convert images to the appropriate number of | |
231 | channels, Imager handles it internally. How to handle drawing colors | |
232 | and the default combine mode is a thornier problem left for some other | |
233 | release. | |
234 | ||
d1555273 TC |
235 | - the font libraries are now only initialized when needed. |
236 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=28825 | |
237 | ||
9b1ec2b8 TC |
238 | - moved the imtoc.perl code into Imager::Preprocess |
239 | ||
240 | - paste() and rubthrough() now adapt the source image data to the | |
241 | destination, so you can now safely paste/rubthrough from greyscale | |
242 | images to color images or back, or from alpha channel images to | |
243 | noalpha channels or back. | |
244 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30908 | |
245 | ||
246 | - rubthrough() now falls back to pasting when the source doesn't have | |
247 | an alpha channel. This effectively treats the source as having a | |
248 | max alpha channel, the right thing to do. | |
249 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29944 | |
250 | ||
251 | - re-worked most of the area filling code to use a common set of | |
252 | functions when filling. | |
253 | Corrected normal combine mode. | |
254 | Rewrote most of the combine modes to match the way the SVG draft | |
255 | defines them with respect to a translucent source and destination. | |
256 | Added tests for translucent source and destination. | |
257 | Added tests to check 8-bit/sample and double/sample combines work | |
258 | similarly. | |
259 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29879 | |
260 | ||
07d9c639 TC |
261 | - writing a 2 or 4 channel image to a JPEG file will now write that |
262 | image as if composited against a background, black by default, | |
263 | overridable with the i_background tag/parameter. | |
6e4af7d4 TC |
264 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29876 |
265 | ||
07d9c639 TC |
266 | - writing a 2 or 4 channel image to a PGM/PPM file will now write |
267 | that image as if composited against a background, black by default, | |
fa90de94 TC |
268 | overridable with the i_background tag/parameter. |
269 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30074 | |
270 | ||
07d9c639 TC |
271 | - writing a 2 or 4 channel image to a BMP file will now write that |
272 | image as if composited against a background, black by default, | |
273 | overridable with the i_background tag/parameter. | |
274 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30075 | |
275 | ||
33b0ffa6 TC |
276 | Bug fixes: |
277 | ||
278 | - Imager::Matrix2d->translate() now only requires one of the x or y | |
279 | parameters. | |
280 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29937 | |
281 | ||
2757bad0 TC |
282 | - mixing qtype scaling now sets all channels of a pixel to zero if |
283 | the pixel has zero coverage (zero alpha). This should produce more | |
284 | compressible output files. | |
285 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32324 | |
286 | ||
3da08517 TC |
287 | - removed the pointless #! line from lib/Imager/Font/Wrap.pm |
288 | Noticed when I saw: | |
289 | https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=166254 | |
290 | I'm not changing the #! lines of the sample code, since it's sample | |
291 | code, not intended for installation. | |
292 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=33408 | |
293 | ||
242d7497 TC |
294 | - some TGA images weren't being detected correctly as TGA images |
295 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32925 | |
296 | ||
297 | - handling of the left-over bit for 16-bit/pixel TGA images has been | |
298 | changed to match the behaviour of the GIMP. Previously the bit | |
299 | being set was treated as an opaque pixel, but one user reported a | |
300 | problem with loading such an image. I haven't been able to find any | |
301 | tools beyond the GIMP that handle alpha-channel 16-bit TGAs, so | |
302 | I'll match it's behaviour. See issue 114913 in the GIMP's | |
303 | bugzilla. | |
304 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32926 | |

ac8138b0 TC |
307 | =========== |
308 | ||
d8e0c3ba TC |
309 | - Makefile.PL now expands ~/path supplied to --incpath or --libpath |
310 | to /path under your home directory. | |
311 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29484 | |
312 | ||
50ff958e TC |
313 | - the old dynaload code used Mach API functions to load dynamic |
314 | libraries on Mac OS X. These APIs have been deprecated in OS X | |
315 | 10.5 and were causing some build problems. | |
316 | So henceforth Imager uses the dlopen() family of functions, and you | |
317 | will need version 10.3 or later of OS X. | |
318 | ||
3309187a TC |
319 | - added the det() function to the transform2() engine. |
320 | added the sample quad_to_square.pl | |
321 | Courtesy Richard Fairhurst. | |
322 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=31244 | |
323 | ||
ac8138b0 TC |
324 | Bug fixes: |
325 | ||
326 | - samples/gifscale.pl sourced the base value for gif_top from | |
327 | gif_left. | |
328 | Thanks to Eleneldil G. Arilou for pointing this out. | |
329 | ||
678a9a65 TC |
330 | - t/t82inline.t no longer loads B at runtime, to work around a bug |
331 | in some 5.005_0[45] installations. | |
332 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30508 | |
333 | ||
334 | - work around Module::Depends::Intrusive bug #21229 | |

bea65b1f TC |
337 | - the hardinvert filter no-longer inverts the alpha channel. |
338 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30002 | |
339 | ||
340 | - the hardinvert filter now supports large samples | |

345 | - major TIFF support re-work |
346 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20329 | |
347 | ||
348 | - added a C level image interface for accessing samples from 1-32 | |
349 | bits, exposed this at the perl level in getsamples() | |
350 | ||
351 | - the conv filter now works at floating point precision for high bit | |
352 | images | |
353 | ||
354 | - added is_bilevel method to test whether an image should be written as | |
355 | a bilevel image if the image format supports it. | |
356 | ||
357 | - added -log-stderr as an Imager import list option | |
358 | ||
359 | - added some important types to Imager::APIRef | |
360 | ||
361 | - added test_image_double() to Imager::Test | |
362 | ||
874c55db TC |
363 | Bug fixes: |
364 | ||
365 | - Imager::Fountain couldn't read GIMP gradient files with 10 or more | |
366 | segments | |
367 | ||
368 | - the scale() method with qtype mixing now handles images with an | |
369 | alpha channel correctly. | |
370 | ||
8d17eae9 TC |
371 | - fixed a broken link from the "animated GIF" entry in the concept index. |

d3bf4eaf TC |
375 | - on some perl's the infix expression parser test would fail due to |
376 | actions in the grammar returning false. Made sure all actions return | |
377 | a true value. | |
8b96ad6b TC |
378 | Thanks to Richard Fairhurst for spending a lot of time in tracking |
379 | down this problem. | |

8a2cd317 TC |
389 | Bug fixes: |
390 | ||
e7ac18bd TC |
391 | - correct handling of sz in matrix_transform() - this should allow |
392 | perspective type transformations to work now. | |

415 | - the SGI RLE compression code could overflow its compression buffer |
416 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30334 | |
417 | ||
418 | - the 32-bit output function used by the SGI code only handled values | |

446 | =========== |
447 | ||
d5477d3d TC |
448 | - Finished/rewrote Arnar's old SGI RGB file format support, so Imager |
449 | now has full SGI RGB image format, including RLE and 16-bit/sample | |
450 | images. | |
451 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=8666 | |
452 | ||
453 | - logging functions are now available in the API | |
454 | ||
a60905e4 TC |
455 | - applied Gabriel Vasseur's patch |
456 | added documentation, further tests, and support for greyscale images | |
457 | Obviously problems are my fault :) | |
458 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=28142 | |
459 | ||
413dc198 TC |
460 | - the mask for ICO/CUR images is now applied as an alpha channel to |
461 | the returned image. For the old behaviour, supply ico_masked => 0 | |
462 | to read() or read_multi(). This should be less confusing when | |
463 | using Imager as a general image processor. | |
464 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29001 | |
465 | ||
bcff4dd9 TC |
466 | Bug fixes: |
467 | ||
468 | - in some cases it's possible for giflib/libungif to return color | |
469 | indexes outside the range of colors defined by the image's palette. | |
470 | We now expand the palette to match the indexes used. | |
471 | Thanks to Gabriel Vasseur for reporting this. | |
472 | ||
02576e8d TC |
473 | - fixed various memory leaks that could occur when failing to read png, |
474 | jpeg, bmp or tga files. | |
475 | ||
b3aa972f TC |
476 | - to avoid confusion, channels not present in the image are returned as |
477 | zero by getscanline(). This has no effect on the C level i_glin() | |
478 | and i_glinf() API functions which continue to not set the unused | |
479 | channels. | |
480 | ||
d5477d3d TC |
481 | - the convert() method now returns an image of the same sample size as |
482 | the source image. | |

549 | - reworked library probing, we can now set more than one probe |
550 | function for a library. Disabled the default (non-freetype-config) | |

552 | both ft2build.h and whatever it includes, and adds -I as needed. | |
553 | Hopefully this will fix build problems like | |

589 | Bug fixes: |
590 | ||
591 | - CRITICAL: the "Imager" typemap entry (not used by Imager itself) | |
592 | was returning an image object with an extra reference, this | |
593 | resulted in a memory leak. | |

595 | ||
596 | - fix rendering on alpha channel images for the FreeType 2.x driver | |
597 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=11972 | |

7623d340 TC |
621 | Imager 0.55 - 16 Dec 2006 |
622 | =========== | |
623 | ||
624 | This is primarily a bug fix release. | |
625 | ||
626 | Note: Test::More is now a pre-requisite for Imager and is no longer bundled. | |
627 | ||
628 | There is one new feature: | |
629 | ||
630 | - the Win32 font driver now supports UTF8 (RT 22166) | |
631 | http://www.cpanforum.com/threads/3276 | |
632 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=22166 | |
633 | ||
634 | Several bugs were fixed: | |
635 | ||
636 | - the string() method would not output the string "0" | |
637 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21770 | |
638 | ||
639 | - fills.c was failing to compile on Solaris 10 (compiler unknown) | |
640 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21944 | |
641 | ||
642 | - the gif_disposal and gif_user_input tags weren't being read from | |
643 | the file correctly | |
644 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=22192 | |
645 | ||
646 | - gif.c was failing to build under MSVC | |
647 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=23922 | |
648 | ||
649 | - in some cases strings passed to the string() method were treated as | |
650 | terminated by NUL (chr 0) | |
651 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21770 | |
652 | ||
653 | - on "MSWin32" perl builds we now link to -lzlib instead of -lz since | |
654 | that's the default build name for zlib on Win32. | |
655 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=23064 | |
656 | ||
657 | - search $Config{incpath} for headers too, which we should have been | |
658 | doing all along. | |
659 | ||
660 | Win32 font driver fixes: | |
661 | ||
662 | - the global descent value from bounding box was the wrong sign | |
663 | http://www.cpanforum.com/threads/3276 | |
664 | ||
665 | - if the first or last glyph overflowed the left or right side of the | |
666 | advance width they would be clipped | |
667 | ||
668 | ||
669 | Imager 0.54 - 14 Sep 2006 | |
670 | =========== | |
671 | ||
672 | This is primarily a feature release: | |
673 | ||
674 | - a new qtype value 'mixing' has been added to the scale() | |
675 | method. This is faster than 'normal', slower than 'preview'. This | |
676 | is based on the method used by pnmscale, and seems to produce less | |
677 | blurry results than normal. | |
678 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=20677 | |
679 | ||
680 | - the rubthrough() method can now render onto images with an alpha | |
681 | channel. | |
682 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20678 | |
683 | ||
684 | - the read_multi() method now falls back to calling doing a single | |
685 | image read via the read() method and write_multi() will now fall | |
686 | back to calling write() if a single image is supplied. This means | |
687 | you can simply call the read_multi() or write_multi() functions | |
688 | without having to check if the type is formatted by that method. | |
689 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19457 | |
690 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19458 | |
691 | ||
692 | - the GIF loop extension can now be written. If you don't have | |
693 | libungif/giflib 4.1.4 (or some distribution's bugfixed equivalent) you | |
694 | should upgrade. | |
695 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=21185 | |
696 | ||
697 | - getscanline() and setscanline() can now read/write palette index | |
698 | based data from/to the image for paletted images, by setting type to | |
699 | 'index'. | |
700 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20338 | |
701 | ||
702 | - we no longer hassle you to disable GIF support | |
703 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20687 | |
704 | ||
705 | - minor documentation fixes | |
706 | ||
707 | ||
708 | Imager 0.53 - 26 Jul 2006 | |
709 | =========== | |
710 | ||
711 | This is a bugfix release. | |
712 | ||
713 | Some test code was left in a code path not covered by the test | |
714 | suite. A test was added to cover this code path and the test code was | |
715 | removed. | |
716 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=20705 | |
717 | ||
718 | ||
719 | Imager 0.52 - 25 Jul 2006 | |
720 | =========== | |
721 | ||
722 | This is primarily a feature release, but contains a fair few bug | |
723 | fixes, new features: | |
724 | ||
725 | - ability to read and write MS Windows ICO and CUR files | |
726 | ||
727 | - you can now add file format plugins to support new file formats | |
728 | ||
729 | - add POD coverage tests | |
730 | ||
731 | - setcolors() and addcolors() now accept color names and so on | |
732 | instead of requiring Imager::Color objects. | |
733 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20056 | |
734 | ||
735 | - flood_fill() can now fill to a specified border color instead of | |
736 | just to the area the same color as the seed. | |
737 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19618 | |
738 | ||
739 | ||
740 | Bug fixes: | |
741 | ||
742 | - bounding_box for the T1 driver wasn't converting UTF8 to ascii when | |
743 | calculating the advance width. | |
744 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=20554 | |
745 | ||
746 | - bounding_box for the T1 driver wasn't including leading and | |
747 | trailing spaces in the bounding box as the other drivers did, it also | |
748 | produced strange results for empty strings or strings containing only | |
749 | spaces | |
750 | ||
751 | - when reading CMYK jpeg images they were being transferred to the | |
752 | image object as is, producing a four channel image. It only looked ok | |
753 | due to an old still unfixed Photoshop bug. We now convert from the | |
754 | inverted CMYK that photoshop (and Corel for example) produce into RGB. | |
755 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20416 | |
756 | ||
757 | - reading a CYMK TIFF would result in a 4 channel image, reading any | |
758 | image with more than 4 channels (eg. RGB with 2 alpha channels) would | |
759 | result in an error. | |
760 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20415 | |
761 | ||
762 | - added /usr/local/include to the default include search path, since | |
763 | we were already searching /usr/local/lib for libraries. | |
764 | ||
765 | And various minor fixes and documentation updates. | |
766 | ||
767 | ||
768 | Imager 0.51 - 23 Apr 2006 | |
769 | =========== | |
770 | ||
771 | - fix a validation bug when processing JPEG EXIF data that can cause | |
772 | a crash | |
773 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18496 | |
774 | ||
775 | - fix mis-processing of the src_maxx and src_maxy parameters of the | |
776 | paste() method | |
777 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18712 | |
778 | ||
779 | - fix a problem in Imager's "smart" handling of the color parameter | |
780 | to various methods. | |
781 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18561 | |
782 | ||
783 | ||
784 | Imager 0.50 - 29 Mar 2006 | |
785 | =========== | |
786 | ||
787 | - CRITICAL: fixes a segmentation fault from attempting to write a 2 | |
788 | or 4 channel image to jpeg or a 2 channel image to tga where the | |
789 | output is an in-memeory buffer. | |
790 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18397 | |
791 | ||
792 | - fixes an incorrect pointer parameter in the PNG code | |
793 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18051 | |
794 | ||
795 | - skip Inline::C tests when building in a directory with spaces | |
796 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18049 |
