3 | Imager 0.70 - unreleased |
4 | =========== | |
5 | ||
6 | Bug fixes: | |
7 | ||
8 | - release image row and comments memory on all error returns in gif | |
9 | reader | |
10 | ||
11 | - handle zero length extensions, previously this would cause a null | |
12 | pointer dereference | |
13 | Thanks to Krzysztof WojtaÅ for the test data and fix for this. | |
14 | ||
b3afeed5 TC |
15 | - an integer division meant that preview scaling to below 1 pixel |
16 | wide or high (which isn't too useful anyway) was calculating using | |
17 | NaNs on most platforms, and causing an exception on others. | |
18 | Thanks to David Cantrell for producing a backtrace of the crash on | |
19 | his Alpha-NetBSD CPAN test box which made it possible to track this | |
20 | down. | |

47 | - re-work most image file test files that require a library into |
48 | separate library present/not present files to remove stupidly long | |
49 | conditionals | |
50 | ||
51 | - don't treat rubthrough() outside the bounds of the target image as | |
52 | an error. | |

55 | Imager 0.67_01 - 02 Sep 2009 |
56 | ============== | |
500888da TC |
57 | |
58 | Bug fixes: | |
59 | ||
60 | - correct documentation of default of raw image interleave read | |
61 | parameter | |
62 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=42074 | |
63 | ||
64 | - add raw_ prefix to raw read parameters, though the original names | |
65 | still work. | |
66 | ||
67 | - fail the read if an invalid raw_interleave parameter is supplied | |
68 | ||
69 | - warn if no interleave or raw_interleave parameter is supplied, | |
70 | since the documented default was wrong, and incompatible with the | |
71 | write format | |
72 | ||
73 | - for reading raw images, if raw_storechannels > raw_datachannels, | |
74 | set the extra channels in the image to 0 | |
75 | ||
cd476e58 TC |
76 | - when probing for executables like freetype-config, search for .bat |
77 | and .cmd on MSWin32, as well as .exe. | |
78 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=49275 | |
500888da | 79 | |
f9a39263 TC |
80 | - re-work the external libraries section of README: |
81 | - list Debian and Redhat package names for each library | |
82 | - reformatting | |
83 | - update URLs | |
84 | ||
f45b774f TC |
85 | - use the new EU::MM META_MERGE facility instead of generating |

102 | =========== |
103 | ||
6b22ba84 TC |
104 | - 24-bit color .ICO/.CUR files can now be read. |
105 | ||
3c8fee33 TC |
106 | Bug fixes: |
107 | ||
6b22ba84 TC |
108 | - an optimization skipping 0 src alpha values could cause the |
109 | rubthrough() to read past the end of a buffer. | |
110 | http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2008/05/msg1509184.html | |
111 | ||
5c0d0ddf TC |
112 | - corrected a reference leak where writing GIFs would leak memory. |
113 | This could also happen calling to_paletted(). | |
114 | Also documented the underlying long existing feature where the | |
115 | colors parameter is filled with the generated color table and added | |
116 | tests for it. | |
3c8fee33 TC |
117 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=41028 |
118 | ||
8e7f5809 TC |
119 | - write out the image size in bytes field of a BMP correctly. |
120 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=41406 | |
121 | ||
c586eb58 TC |
122 | - add limited tests for Imager::ExtUtils |
123 | ||
124 | - make Imager::ExtUtils->includes use an absolute path, since | |
125 | a relative path could cause failures using Inline::C. | |
126 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=37353 | |
127 | ||
6b22ba84 TC |
128 | - re-arrange the POD for Imager::Font::BBox: |
129 | - mark total_width(), pos_width(), end_offset() obsolete, since | |
130 | they're mostly for backwards compatibility | |
131 | - group width methods and height methods | |
132 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39999 | |

0727e3f5 | 134 | Imager 0.65 - 20 May 2008 |
546ea21c TC |
135 | =========== |
136 | ||
137 | Bug fixes: | |
138 | ||
139 | - In some cases when an error occurs reading those parts of a JPEG | |
140 | file after the image the scan-line buffer could be freed a second | |
141 | time. In cases where the the error occured while reading the image | |
142 | data it's possible that the buffer could have leaked. | |
143 | Thanks to Gabriel Vasseur for reporting this and help in tracking | |
144 | it down. | |
145 | ||
43b2b326 TC |
146 | - the gif_screen_height tag was overriding the screen width and being |
147 | ignored for the screen height when present. | |
148 | https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=35568 | |

e02d22d2 | 150 | Imager 0.64 - 23 April 2008 |
de470892 TC |
151 | =========== |
152 | ||
e02d22d2 TC |
153 | This is a bug fix release. This includes a fix for a possible |
154 | security issue. | |
155 | ||
de470892 TC |
156 | Bug fixes: |
157 | ||
e02d22d2 TC |
158 | - Possible security issue: The floating point sample path for image |
159 | based fills had a buffer overflow. This would overwrite the end of | |
160 | a malloc()ed buffer with double precision floats. | |
161 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35324 | |
6912d85a | 162 | CVE-2008-1928 |
e02d22d2 | 163 | |
de470892 TC |
164 | - check that the result of fileno($fh) is defined rather than simply |
165 | true when read() or write() is supplied with an fh parameter. | |
166 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35139 | |
167 | ||
168 | - i_scale_axis() wasn't checking the result of i_img_new_ch() | |
169 | resulting in a SIGSEGV when attempting to scale an image to a size | |
170 | too large to fit in memory. This is a NULL pointer access issue, | |
171 | not a buffer overflow. | |
172 | Added a check for the failure. | |
173 | scale_calculate() (and hence scale()) will now fail if any of the | |
174 | scale size parameters are a reference. | |
175 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35172 | |
176 | ||
04f85f63 TC |
177 | - Regression: filling a greyscale image with a hatch used the wrong |
178 | color channels from the supplied fg/bg colors. | |
179 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35278 | |
180 | ||
a256aec5 TC |
181 | - fixed a related problem for image fills. |
182 | ||
49240201 | 183 | Imager 0.63 - 7 April 2008 |
33b0ffa6 TC |
184 | =========== |
185 | ||
242d7497 TC |
186 | This release primarily contains changes to improve ease of use - |
187 | rather than you having to convert images to the appropriate number of | |
188 | channels, Imager handles it internally. How to handle drawing colors | |
189 | and the default combine mode is a thornier problem left for some other | |
190 | release. | |
191 | ||
d1555273 TC |
192 | - the font libraries are now only initialized when needed. |
193 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=28825 | |
194 | ||
9b1ec2b8 TC |
195 | - moved the imtoc.perl code into Imager::Preprocess |
196 | ||
197 | - paste() and rubthrough() now adapt the source image data to the | |
198 | destination, so you can now safely paste/rubthrough from greyscale | |
199 | images to color images or back, or from alpha channel images to | |
200 | noalpha channels or back. | |
201 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30908 | |
202 | ||
203 | - rubthrough() now falls back to pasting when the source doesn't have | |
204 | an alpha channel. This effectively treats the source as having a | |
205 | max alpha channel, the right thing to do. | |
206 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29944 | |
207 | ||
208 | - re-worked most of the area filling code to use a common set of | |
209 | functions when filling. | |
210 | Corrected normal combine mode. | |
211 | Rewrote most of the combine modes to match the way the SVG draft | |
212 | defines them with respect to a translucent source and destination. | |
213 | Added tests for translucent source and destination. | |
214 | Added tests to check 8-bit/sample and double/sample combines work | |
215 | similarly. | |
216 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29879 | |
217 | ||
07d9c639 TC |
218 | - writing a 2 or 4 channel image to a JPEG file will now write that |
219 | image as if composited against a background, black by default, | |
220 | overridable with the i_background tag/parameter. | |
6e4af7d4 TC |
221 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29876 |
222 | ||
07d9c639 TC |
223 | - writing a 2 or 4 channel image to a PGM/PPM file will now write |
224 | that image as if composited against a background, black by default, | |
fa90de94 TC |
225 | overridable with the i_background tag/parameter. |
226 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30074 | |
227 | ||
07d9c639 TC |
228 | - writing a 2 or 4 channel image to a BMP file will now write that |
229 | image as if composited against a background, black by default, | |
230 | overridable with the i_background tag/parameter. | |
231 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30075 | |
232 | ||
33b0ffa6 TC |
233 | Bug fixes: |
234 | ||
235 | - Imager::Matrix2d->translate() now only requires one of the x or y | |
236 | parameters. | |
237 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29937 | |
238 | ||
2757bad0 TC |
239 | - mixing qtype scaling now sets all channels of a pixel to zero if |
240 | the pixel has zero coverage (zero alpha). This should produce more | |
241 | compressible output files. | |
242 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32324 | |
243 | ||
3da08517 TC |
244 | - removed the pointless #! line from lib/Imager/Font/Wrap.pm |
245 | Noticed when I saw: | |
246 | https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=166254 | |
247 | I'm not changing the #! lines of the sample code, since it's sample | |
248 | code, not intended for installation. | |
249 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=33408 | |
250 | ||
242d7497 TC |
251 | - some TGA images weren't being detected correctly as TGA images |
252 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32925 | |
253 | ||
254 | - handling of the left-over bit for 16-bit/pixel TGA images has been | |
255 | changed to match the behaviour of the GIMP. Previously the bit | |
256 | being set was treated as an opaque pixel, but one user reported a | |
257 | problem with loading such an image. I haven't been able to find any | |
258 | tools beyond the GIMP that handle alpha-channel 16-bit TGAs, so | |
259 | I'll match it's behaviour. See issue 114913 in the GIMP's | |
260 | bugzilla. | |
261 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32926 | |

264 | =========== |
265 | ||
d8e0c3ba TC |
266 | - Makefile.PL now expands ~/path supplied to --incpath or --libpath |
267 | to /path under your home directory. | |
268 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29484 | |
269 | ||
50ff958e TC |
270 | - the old dynaload code used Mach API functions to load dynamic |
271 | libraries on Mac OS X. These APIs have been deprecated in OS X | |
272 | 10.5 and were causing some build problems. | |
273 | So henceforth Imager uses the dlopen() family of functions, and you | |
274 | will need version 10.3 or later of OS X. | |
275 | ||
3309187a TC |
276 | - added the det() function to the transform2() engine. |
277 | added the sample quad_to_square.pl | |
278 | Courtesy Richard Fairhurst. | |

ac8138b0 TC |
281 | Bug fixes: |
282 | ||
283 | - samples/gifscale.pl sourced the base value for gif_top from | |
284 | gif_left. | |
285 | Thanks to Eleneldil G. Arilou for pointing this out. | |
286 | ||
678a9a65 TC |
287 | - t/t82inline.t no longer loads B at runtime, to work around a bug |
288 | in some 5.005_0[45] installations. | |
289 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30508 | |
290 | ||

302 | - major TIFF support re-work |
303 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20329 | |
304 | ||
305 | - added a C level image interface for accessing samples from 1-32 | |
306 | bits, exposed this at the perl level in getsamples() | |
307 | ||
308 | - the conv filter now works at floating point precision for high bit | |
309 | images | |
310 | ||
311 | - added is_bilevel method to test whether an image should be written as | |
312 | a bilevel image if the image format supports it. | |
313 | ||
314 | - added -log-stderr as an Imager import list option | |
315 | ||
316 | - added some important types to Imager::APIRef | |
317 | ||
318 | - added test_image_double() to Imager::Test | |

321 | ||
322 | - Imager::Fountain couldn't read GIMP gradient files with 10 or more | |
323 | segments | |
324 | ||
325 | - the scale() method with qtype mixing now handles images with an | |
326 | alpha channel correctly. | |

e7ac18bd TC |
348 | - correct handling of sz in matrix_transform() - this should allow |

373 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30334 | |
374 | ||
375 | - the 32-bit output function used by the SGI code only handled values | |
376 | under 0x10000. This was most noticable when writing large RLE images. | |

398 | performing interpolation in the presence of an alpha channel. | |
8a071022 TC |
399 | Also corrected the centring of the rotated image on the output |
400 | image. | |

403 | =========== |
404 | ||
d5477d3d TC |
405 | - Finished/rewrote Arnar's old SGI RGB file format support, so Imager |
406 | now has full SGI RGB image format, including RLE and 16-bit/sample | |
407 | images. | |
408 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=8666 | |
409 | ||
410 | - logging functions are now available in the API | |
411 | ||
a60905e4 TC |
412 | - applied Gabriel Vasseur's patch |
413 | added documentation, further tests, and support for greyscale images | |
414 | Obviously problems are my fault :) | |
415 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=28142 | |
416 | ||
413dc198 TC |
417 | - the mask for ICO/CUR images is now applied as an alpha channel to |
418 | the returned image. For the old behaviour, supply ico_masked => 0 | |
419 | to read() or read_multi(). This should be less confusing when | |
420 | using Imager as a general image processor. | |
421 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29001 | |
422 | ||
bcff4dd9 TC |
423 | Bug fixes: |
424 | ||
425 | - in some cases it's possible for giflib/libungif to return color | |
426 | indexes outside the range of colors defined by the image's palette. | |
427 | We now expand the palette to match the indexes used. | |
428 | Thanks to Gabriel Vasseur for reporting this. | |
429 | ||
02576e8d TC |
430 | - fixed various memory leaks that could occur when failing to read png, |
431 | jpeg, bmp or tga files. | |
432 | ||
b3aa972f TC |
433 | - to avoid confusion, channels not present in the image are returned as |
434 | zero by getscanline(). This has no effect on the C level i_glin() | |
435 | and i_glinf() API functions which continue to not set the unused | |
436 | channels. | |
437 | ||
d5477d3d TC |
438 | - the convert() method now returns an image of the same sample size as |
439 | the source image. | |
440 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=28492 | |
441 | ||
baa880ef TC |
442 | - remove repeated text in Imager::Files |
443 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=27589 | |
444 | ||
445 | - be even more explicit that scale() and friends don't modify the source | |
446 | image, but return a new image. | |
447 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=28570 | |
448 | ||
0561d49c TC |
449 | - improve the error message from errstr() when you try to load a font |
450 | for which the driver hasn't been built in Imager. | |
451 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=27571 | |
452 | ||
d8a39ce0 TC |
453 | - transparency is now enabled by default when writing GIF images |
454 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=27615 | |

460 | =========== |
461 | ||
462 | Bug fixes: | |
463 | ||
464 | - fixes a regression introduced by the fixes for RT 11972 | |
465 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=27546 | |
466 | ||
9fc9d0ca TC |
467 | - cropping outside the image would return an Imager object with |
468 | no low-level image object, instead of returning false. | |
469 | Fixed by: Philip Gwyn (Leolo) | |

506 | - reworked library probing, we can now set more than one probe |
507 | function for a library. Disabled the default (non-freetype-config) | |
508 | library probe and added an extra probe function that searches for | |
509 | both ft2build.h and whatever it includes, and adds -I as needed. | |
510 | Hopefully this will fix build problems like | |

535 | ||
536 | - added support for writing PBM images if the image is paletted and | |
537 | contains only black and white | |
538 | ||
539 | - added a new make_colors value - "mono" | |

546 | Bug fixes: |
547 | ||
548 | - CRITICAL: the "Imager" typemap entry (not used by Imager itself) | |
549 | was returning an image object with an extra reference, this | |
550 | resulted in a memory leak. | |
551 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=24992 | |
552 | ||
553 | - fix rendering on alpha channel images for the FreeType 2.x driver | |
554 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=11972 | |
555 | ||
556 | - reading bmp files now consitently handles short reads. You can now | |
557 | supply a parameter to treat a short read as successful and set | |
558 | i_incomplete | |
559 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=8426 | |
560 | ||
561 | - previously, reading ASCII PBM files required spaces between samples, | |
562 | even though the format doesn't require that | |
563 | ||
1225d272 TC |

7623d340 TC |
578 | Imager 0.55 - 16 Dec 2006 |
579 | =========== | |
580 | ||
581 | This is primarily a bug fix release. | |
582 | ||
583 | Note: Test::More is now a pre-requisite for Imager and is no longer bundled. | |
584 | ||
585 | There is one new feature: | |
586 | ||
587 | - the Win32 font driver now supports UTF8 (RT 22166) | |
588 | http://www.cpanforum.com/threads/3276 | |
589 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=22166 | |
590 | ||
591 | Several bugs were fixed: | |
592 | ||
593 | - the string() method would not output the string "0" | |
594 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21770 | |
595 | ||
596 | - fills.c was failing to compile on Solaris 10 (compiler unknown) | |
597 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21944 | |
598 | ||
599 | - the gif_disposal and gif_user_input tags weren't being read from | |
600 | the file correctly | |
601 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=22192 | |
602 | ||
603 | - gif.c was failing to build under MSVC | |
604 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=23922 | |
605 | ||
606 | - in some cases strings passed to the string() method were treated as | |
607 | terminated by NUL (chr 0) | |
608 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21770 | |
609 | ||
610 | - on "MSWin32" perl builds we now link to -lzlib instead of -lz since | |
611 | that's the default build name for zlib on Win32. | |
612 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=23064 | |
613 | ||
614 | - search $Config{incpath} for headers too, which we should have been | |
615 | doing all along. | |
616 | ||
617 | Win32 font driver fixes: | |
618 | ||
619 | - the global descent value from bounding box was the wrong sign | |
620 | http://www.cpanforum.com/threads/3276 | |
621 | ||
622 | - if the first or last glyph overflowed the left or right side of the | |
623 | advance width they would be clipped | |
624 | ||
625 | ||
626 | Imager 0.54 - 14 Sep 2006 | |
627 | =========== | |
628 | ||
629 | This is primarily a feature release: | |
630 | ||
631 | - a new qtype value 'mixing' has been added to the scale() | |
632 | method. This is faster than 'normal', slower than 'preview'. This | |
633 | is based on the method used by pnmscale, and seems to produce less | |
634 | blurry results than normal. | |
635 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=20677 | |
636 | ||
637 | - the rubthrough() method can now render onto images with an alpha | |
638 | channel. | |
639 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20678 | |
640 | ||
641 | - the read_multi() method now falls back to calling doing a single | |
642 | image read via the read() method and write_multi() will now fall | |
643 | back to calling write() if a single image is supplied. This means | |
644 | you can simply call the read_multi() or write_multi() functions | |
645 | without having to check if the type is formatted by that method. | |
646 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19457 | |
647 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19458 | |
648 | ||
649 | - the GIF loop extension can now be written. If you don't have | |
650 | libungif/giflib 4.1.4 (or some distribution's bugfixed equivalent) you | |
651 | should upgrade. | |
652 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=21185 | |
653 | ||
654 | - getscanline() and setscanline() can now read/write palette index | |
655 | based data from/to the image for paletted images, by setting type to | |
656 | 'index'. | |
657 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20338 | |
658 | ||
659 | - we no longer hassle you to disable GIF support | |
660 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20687 | |
661 | ||
662 | - minor documentation fixes | |
663 | ||
664 | ||
665 | Imager 0.53 - 26 Jul 2006 | |
666 | =========== | |
667 | ||
668 | This is a bugfix release. | |
669 | ||
670 | Some test code was left in a code path not covered by the test | |
671 | suite. A test was added to cover this code path and the test code was | |
672 | removed. | |
673 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=20705 | |
674 | ||
675 | ||
676 | Imager 0.52 - 25 Jul 2006 | |
677 | =========== | |
678 | ||
679 | This is primarily a feature release, but contains a fair few bug | |
680 | fixes, new features: | |
681 | ||
682 | - ability to read and write MS Windows ICO and CUR files | |
683 | ||
684 | - you can now add file format plugins to support new file formats | |
685 | ||
686 | - add POD coverage tests | |
687 | ||
688 | - setcolors() and addcolors() now accept color names and so on | |
689 | instead of requiring Imager::Color objects. | |
690 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20056 | |
691 | ||
692 | - flood_fill() can now fill to a specified border color instead of | |
693 | just to the area the same color as the seed. | |
694 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19618 | |
695 | ||
696 | ||
697 | Bug fixes: | |
698 | ||
699 | - bounding_box for the T1 driver wasn't converting UTF8 to ascii when | |
700 | calculating the advance width. | |
701 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=20554 | |
702 | ||
703 | - bounding_box for the T1 driver wasn't including leading and | |
704 | trailing spaces in the bounding box as the other drivers did, it also | |
705 | produced strange results for empty strings or strings containing only | |
706 | spaces | |
707 | ||
708 | - when reading CMYK jpeg images they were being transferred to the | |
709 | image object as is, producing a four channel image. It only looked ok | |
710 | due to an old still unfixed Photoshop bug. We now convert from the | |
711 | inverted CMYK that photoshop (and Corel for example) produce into RGB. | |
712 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20416 | |
713 | ||
714 | - reading a CYMK TIFF would result in a 4 channel image, reading any | |
715 | image with more than 4 channels (eg. RGB with 2 alpha channels) would | |
716 | result in an error. | |
717 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20415 | |
718 | ||
719 | - added /usr/local/include to the default include search path, since | |
720 | we were already searching /usr/local/lib for libraries. | |
721 | ||
722 | And various minor fixes and documentation updates. | |
723 | ||
724 | ||
725 | Imager 0.51 - 23 Apr 2006 | |
726 | =========== | |
727 | ||
728 | - fix a validation bug when processing JPEG EXIF data that can cause | |
729 | a crash | |
730 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18496 | |
731 | ||
732 | - fix mis-processing of the src_maxx and src_maxy parameters of the | |
733 | paste() method | |
734 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18712 | |
735 | ||
736 | - fix a problem in Imager's "smart" handling of the color parameter | |
737 | to various methods. | |
738 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18561 | |
739 | ||
740 | ||
741 | Imager 0.50 - 29 Mar 2006 | |
742 | =========== | |
743 | ||
744 | - CRITICAL: fixes a segmentation fault from attempting to write a 2 | |
745 | or 4 channel image to jpeg or a 2 channel image to tga where the | |
746 | output is an in-memeory buffer. | |
747 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18397 | |
748 | ||
749 | - fixes an incorrect pointer parameter in the PNG code | |
750 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18051 | |
751 | ||
752 | - skip Inline::C tests when building in a directory with spaces | |
753 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18049 |
