e41cfe8f TC |
3 | Imager 0.72 - unreleased |
4 | =========== | |
5 | ||
6 | Bug fixes: | |
7 | ||
8 | - use scanline oriented operations to flip images instead of pixel | |
9 | operations | |
10 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39278 | |
11 | ||
12 | - use double/sample operations to flip large sample images instead of | |
13 | 8-bit sample operations. | |
14 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39280 | |
15 | ||
de3ca2fd TC |
16 | - fix POD nits |
17 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=51874 | |
18 | ||
ffddd407 TC |
19 | - prevent double-frees when someone creates Imager objects and then |
20 | creates a thread. Note: this just handles some simple cases, | |
21 | Imager doesn't support perl threads, and isn't likely to. | |

6a3cbaef TC |
25 | =========== |
26 | ||
a16bae72 TC |
27 | - add the opacity fill type - an adaptor that modifies the opacity of |
28 | another fill. | |
29 | ||
6a3cbaef TC |
30 | Bug fixes: |
31 | ||
32 | - the conv filter now enforces that the sum of the coefficients is | |
33 | non-zero. Also, rather than skipping pixels off the edge off the | |
34 | edge of the image, the closest edge pixel is used. Previously | |
35 | dividing by the zero sum of coefficients could cause invalid | |
36 | results or runtime exceptions. | |
37 | Thanks to David Cantrell's Alpha-NetBSD CPAN test box for revealing | |
38 | this bug. | |
39 | ||
189d5775 | 40 | Imager 0.70 - 21 Sep 2009 |
2b82e731 TC |
41 | =========== |
42 | ||
43 | Bug fixes: | |
44 | ||
45 | - release image row and comments memory on all error returns in gif | |
46 | reader | |
47 | ||
48 | - handle zero length extensions, previously this would cause a null | |
49 | pointer dereference | |
50 | Thanks to Krzysztof WojtaÅ for the test data and fix for this. | |
51 | ||
b3afeed5 TC |
52 | - an integer division meant that preview scaling to below 1 pixel |
53 | wide or high (which isn't too useful anyway) was calculating using | |
54 | NaNs on most platforms, and causing an exception on others. | |
55 | Thanks to David Cantrell for producing a backtrace of the crash on | |
56 | his Alpha-NetBSD CPAN test box which made it possible to track this | |
57 | down. | |
58 | ||
b1e29946 | 59 | Imager 0.69 - 08 Sep 2009 |
25f4e775 TC |
60 | =========== |
61 | ||
b1e29946 | 62 | Bug fixes: |
25f4e775 TC |
63 | |
64 | - broken test fix - was attempting to call a function skip_all, when | |
65 | that should be a parameter to plan(). | |
66 | ||
b1e29946 TC |
67 | - briefly document apidocs.perl, the tool used to build |
68 | Imager::APIRef and make some minor enhancements | |
69 | ||
70 | - various minor documentation enhancements and fixes. | |
71 | ||
5920304a | 72 | Imager 0.68 - 07 Sep 2009 |
c5f447ac TC |
73 | =========== |
74 | ||
3c252111 TC |
75 | - Imager->new(file => $filename) and other similar incantations will |
76 | load the given file. | |
77 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=48261 | |
78 | ||
c5f447ac TC |
79 | Bug fixes: |
80 | ||
81 | - avoid using CHECK as a label in Imager::Test | |
82 | http://nntp.x.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/5220921 | |
83 | ||
0d670555 TC |
84 | - re-work most image file test files that require a library into |
85 | separate library present/not present files to remove stupidly long | |
86 | conditionals | |
87 | ||
88 | - don't treat rubthrough() outside the bounds of the target image as | |
89 | an error. | |
90 | http://nntp.x.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/5185716 | |

8d800216 TC |
92 | Imager 0.67_01 - 02 Sep 2009 |
93 | ============== | |
500888da TC |
94 | |
95 | Bug fixes: | |
96 | ||
97 | - correct documentation of default of raw image interleave read | |
98 | parameter | |
99 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=42074 | |
100 | ||
101 | - add raw_ prefix to raw read parameters, though the original names | |
102 | still work. | |
103 | ||
104 | - fail the read if an invalid raw_interleave parameter is supplied | |
105 | ||
106 | - warn if no interleave or raw_interleave parameter is supplied, | |
107 | since the documented default was wrong, and incompatible with the | |
108 | write format | |
109 | ||
110 | - for reading raw images, if raw_storechannels > raw_datachannels, | |
111 | set the extra channels in the image to 0 | |
112 | ||
cd476e58 TC |
113 | - when probing for executables like freetype-config, search for .bat |
114 | and .cmd on MSWin32, as well as .exe. | |
115 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=49275 | |
500888da | 116 | |
f9a39263 TC |
117 | - re-work the external libraries section of README: |
118 | - list Debian and Redhat package names for each library | |
119 | - reformatting | |
120 | - update URLs | |
121 | ||
f45b774f TC |
122 | - use the new EU::MM META_MERGE facility instead of generating |
123 | META.yml from scratch | |
124 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=47888 | |
125 | ||
d6b51d8c TC |
126 | - use Devel::CheckLib (bundled, modified) to check which release of |
127 | libtiff is installed and reject 3.9.0 | |

3c8fee33 TC |
139 | =========== |
140 | ||
6b22ba84 TC |
141 | - 24-bit color .ICO/.CUR files can now be read. |
142 | ||
3c8fee33 TC |
143 | Bug fixes: |
144 | ||
6b22ba84 TC |
145 | - an optimization skipping 0 src alpha values could cause the |
146 | rubthrough() to read past the end of a buffer. | |
147 | http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2008/05/msg1509184.html | |
148 | ||
5c0d0ddf TC |
149 | - corrected a reference leak where writing GIFs would leak memory. |
150 | This could also happen calling to_paletted(). | |
151 | Also documented the underlying long existing feature where the | |
152 | colors parameter is filled with the generated color table and added | |
153 | tests for it. | |
3c8fee33 TC |
154 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=41028 |
155 | ||
8e7f5809 TC |
156 | - write out the image size in bytes field of a BMP correctly. |
157 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=41406 | |
158 | ||
c586eb58 TC |
159 | - add limited tests for Imager::ExtUtils |
160 | ||
161 | - make Imager::ExtUtils->includes use an absolute path, since | |
162 | a relative path could cause failures using Inline::C. | |
163 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=37353 | |
164 | ||
6b22ba84 TC |
165 | - re-arrange the POD for Imager::Font::BBox: |
166 | - mark total_width(), pos_width(), end_offset() obsolete, since | |
167 | they're mostly for backwards compatibility | |
168 | - group width methods and height methods | |
169 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39999 | |
17d9fe35 | 170 | |
0727e3f5 | 171 | Imager 0.65 - 20 May 2008 |
546ea21c TC |
172 | =========== |
173 | ||
174 | Bug fixes: | |
175 | ||
176 | - In some cases when an error occurs reading those parts of a JPEG | |
177 | file after the image the scan-line buffer could be freed a second | |
178 | time. In cases where the the error occured while reading the image | |
179 | data it's possible that the buffer could have leaked. | |
180 | Thanks to Gabriel Vasseur for reporting this and help in tracking | |
181 | it down. | |
182 | ||
43b2b326 TC |
183 | - the gif_screen_height tag was overriding the screen width and being |
184 | ignored for the screen height when present. | |
185 | https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=35568 | |
186 | ||
e02d22d2 | 187 | Imager 0.64 - 23 April 2008 |
de470892 TC |
188 | =========== |
189 | ||
e02d22d2 TC |
190 | This is a bug fix release. This includes a fix for a possible |
191 | security issue. | |
192 | ||
de470892 TC |
193 | Bug fixes: |
194 | ||
e02d22d2 TC |
195 | - Possible security issue: The floating point sample path for image |
196 | based fills had a buffer overflow. This would overwrite the end of | |
197 | a malloc()ed buffer with double precision floats. | |
198 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35324 | |
6912d85a | 199 | CVE-2008-1928 |
e02d22d2 | 200 | |
de470892 TC |
201 | - check that the result of fileno($fh) is defined rather than simply |
202 | true when read() or write() is supplied with an fh parameter. | |
203 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35139 | |
204 | ||
205 | - i_scale_axis() wasn't checking the result of i_img_new_ch() | |
206 | resulting in a SIGSEGV when attempting to scale an image to a size | |
207 | too large to fit in memory. This is a NULL pointer access issue, | |
208 | not a buffer overflow. | |
209 | Added a check for the failure. | |
210 | scale_calculate() (and hence scale()) will now fail if any of the | |
211 | scale size parameters are a reference. | |
212 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35172 | |
213 | ||
04f85f63 TC |
214 | - Regression: filling a greyscale image with a hatch used the wrong |
215 | color channels from the supplied fg/bg colors. | |
216 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=35278 | |
217 | ||
a256aec5 TC |
218 | - fixed a related problem for image fills. |
219 | ||
49240201 | 220 | Imager 0.63 - 7 April 2008 |
33b0ffa6 TC |
221 | =========== |
222 | ||
242d7497 TC |
223 | This release primarily contains changes to improve ease of use - |
224 | rather than you having to convert images to the appropriate number of | |
225 | channels, Imager handles it internally. How to handle drawing colors | |
226 | and the default combine mode is a thornier problem left for some other | |
227 | release. | |
228 | ||
d1555273 TC |
229 | - the font libraries are now only initialized when needed. |
230 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=28825 | |
231 | ||
9b1ec2b8 TC |
232 | - moved the imtoc.perl code into Imager::Preprocess |
233 | ||
234 | - paste() and rubthrough() now adapt the source image data to the | |
235 | destination, so you can now safely paste/rubthrough from greyscale | |
236 | images to color images or back, or from alpha channel images to | |
237 | noalpha channels or back. | |
238 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30908 | |
239 | ||
240 | - rubthrough() now falls back to pasting when the source doesn't have | |
241 | an alpha channel. This effectively treats the source as having a | |
242 | max alpha channel, the right thing to do. | |
243 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29944 | |
244 | ||
245 | - re-worked most of the area filling code to use a common set of | |
246 | functions when filling. | |
247 | Corrected normal combine mode. | |
248 | Rewrote most of the combine modes to match the way the SVG draft | |
249 | defines them with respect to a translucent source and destination. | |
250 | Added tests for translucent source and destination. | |
251 | Added tests to check 8-bit/sample and double/sample combines work | |
252 | similarly. | |
253 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29879 | |
254 | ||
07d9c639 TC |
255 | - writing a 2 or 4 channel image to a JPEG file will now write that |
256 | image as if composited against a background, black by default, | |
257 | overridable with the i_background tag/parameter. | |
6e4af7d4 TC |
258 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29876 |
259 | ||
07d9c639 TC |
260 | - writing a 2 or 4 channel image to a PGM/PPM file will now write |
261 | that image as if composited against a background, black by default, | |
fa90de94 TC |
262 | overridable with the i_background tag/parameter. |
263 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30074 | |
264 | ||
07d9c639 TC |
265 | - writing a 2 or 4 channel image to a BMP file will now write that |
266 | image as if composited against a background, black by default, | |
267 | overridable with the i_background tag/parameter. | |
268 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30075 | |
269 | ||
33b0ffa6 TC |
270 | Bug fixes: |
271 | ||
272 | - Imager::Matrix2d->translate() now only requires one of the x or y | |
273 | parameters. | |
274 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29937 | |
275 | ||
2757bad0 TC |
276 | - mixing qtype scaling now sets all channels of a pixel to zero if |
277 | the pixel has zero coverage (zero alpha). This should produce more | |
278 | compressible output files. | |
279 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32324 | |
280 | ||
3da08517 TC |
281 | - removed the pointless #! line from lib/Imager/Font/Wrap.pm |
282 | Noticed when I saw: | |
283 | https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=166254 | |
284 | I'm not changing the #! lines of the sample code, since it's sample | |
285 | code, not intended for installation. | |
286 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=33408 | |
287 | ||
242d7497 TC |
288 | - some TGA images weren't being detected correctly as TGA images |
289 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32925 | |
290 | ||
291 | - handling of the left-over bit for 16-bit/pixel TGA images has been | |
292 | changed to match the behaviour of the GIMP. Previously the bit | |
293 | being set was treated as an opaque pixel, but one user reported a | |
294 | problem with loading such an image. I haven't been able to find any | |
295 | tools beyond the GIMP that handle alpha-channel 16-bit TGAs, so | |
296 | I'll match it's behaviour. See issue 114913 in the GIMP's | |
297 | bugzilla. | |

ac8138b0 TC |
301 | =========== |
302 | ||
d8e0c3ba TC |
303 | - Makefile.PL now expands ~/path supplied to --incpath or --libpath |
304 | to /path under your home directory. | |
305 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29484 | |
306 | ||
50ff958e TC |
307 | - the old dynaload code used Mach API functions to load dynamic |
308 | libraries on Mac OS X. These APIs have been deprecated in OS X | |
309 | 10.5 and were causing some build problems. | |
310 | So henceforth Imager uses the dlopen() family of functions, and you | |
311 | will need version 10.3 or later of OS X. | |
312 | ||
3309187a TC |
313 | - added the det() function to the transform2() engine. |
314 | added the sample quad_to_square.pl | |
315 | Courtesy Richard Fairhurst. | |

317 | ||
ac8138b0 TC |
318 | Bug fixes: |
319 | ||
320 | - samples/gifscale.pl sourced the base value for gif_top from | |
321 | gif_left. | |
322 | Thanks to Eleneldil G. Arilou for pointing this out. | |
323 | ||
678a9a65 TC |
324 | - t/t82inline.t no longer loads B at runtime, to work around a bug |
325 | in some 5.005_0[45] installations. | |
326 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30508 | |
327 | ||
328 | - work around Module::Depends::Intrusive bug #21229 | |

bea65b1f TC |
331 | - the hardinvert filter no-longer inverts the alpha channel. |
332 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30002 | |
333 | ||
334 | - the hardinvert filter now supports large samples | |

339 | - major TIFF support re-work |
340 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20329 | |
341 | ||
342 | - added a C level image interface for accessing samples from 1-32 | |
343 | bits, exposed this at the perl level in getsamples() | |
344 | ||
345 | - the conv filter now works at floating point precision for high bit | |
346 | images | |
347 | ||
348 | - added is_bilevel method to test whether an image should be written as | |
349 | a bilevel image if the image format supports it. | |
350 | ||
351 | - added -log-stderr as an Imager import list option | |
352 | ||
353 | - added some important types to Imager::APIRef | |
354 | ||
355 | - added test_image_double() to Imager::Test | |
356 | ||
874c55db TC |
357 | Bug fixes: |
358 | ||
359 | - Imager::Fountain couldn't read GIMP gradient files with 10 or more | |
360 | segments | |
361 | ||
362 | - the scale() method with qtype mixing now handles images with an | |
363 | alpha channel correctly. | |
364 | ||
8d17eae9 TC |
365 | - fixed a broken link from the "animated GIF" entry in the concept index. |
366 | Thanks to Slaven Rezic. | |

368 | ||
d3bf4eaf TC |
369 | - on some perl's the infix expression parser test would fail due to |
370 | actions in the grammar returning false. Made sure all actions return | |
371 | a true value. | |
8b96ad6b TC |
372 | Thanks to Richard Fairhurst for spending a lot of time in tracking |
373 | down this problem. | |

8a2cd317 TC |
383 | Bug fixes: |
384 | ||
e7ac18bd TC |
385 | - correct handling of sz in matrix_transform() - this should allow |
386 | perspective type transformations to work now. | |
387 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29936 | |
388 | ||
8a2cd317 TC |

409 | - the SGI RLE compression code could overflow its compression buffer |
410 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30334 | |
411 | ||
412 | - the 32-bit output function used by the SGI code only handled values | |
413 | under 0x10000. This was most noticable when writing large RLE images. | |

bcff4dd9 TC |
440 | =========== |
441 | ||
d5477d3d TC |
442 | - Finished/rewrote Arnar's old SGI RGB file format support, so Imager |
443 | now has full SGI RGB image format, including RLE and 16-bit/sample | |
444 | images. | |
445 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=8666 | |
446 | ||
447 | - logging functions are now available in the API | |
448 | ||
a60905e4 TC |
449 | - applied Gabriel Vasseur's patch |
450 | added documentation, further tests, and support for greyscale images | |
451 | Obviously problems are my fault :) | |
452 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=28142 | |
453 | ||
413dc198 TC |
454 | - the mask for ICO/CUR images is now applied as an alpha channel to |
455 | the returned image. For the old behaviour, supply ico_masked => 0 | |
456 | to read() or read_multi(). This should be less confusing when | |
457 | using Imager as a general image processor. | |
458 | https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=29001 | |
459 | ||
bcff4dd9 TC |
460 | Bug fixes: |
461 | ||
462 | - in some cases it's possible for giflib/libungif to return color | |
463 | indexes outside the range of colors defined by the image's palette. | |
464 | We now expand the palette to match the indexes used. | |
465 | Thanks to Gabriel Vasseur for reporting this. | |
466 | ||
02576e8d TC |
467 | - fixed various memory leaks that could occur when failing to read png, |
468 | jpeg, bmp or tga files. | |
469 | ||
b3aa972f TC |
470 | - to avoid confusion, channels not present in the image are returned as |
471 | zero by getscanline(). This has no effect on the C level i_glin() | |
472 | and i_glinf() API functions which continue to not set the unused | |
473 | channels. | |
474 | ||
d5477d3d TC |
475 | - the convert() method now returns an image of the same sample size as |
476 | the source image. | |

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

583 | Bug fixes: |
584 | ||
585 | - CRITICAL: the "Imager" typemap entry (not used by Imager itself) | |
586 | was returning an image object with an extra reference, this | |
587 | resulted in a memory leak. | |
588 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=24992 | |
589 | ||
590 | - fix rendering on alpha channel images for the FreeType 2.x driver | |
591 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=11972 | |

594 | supply a parameter to treat a short read as successful and set | |
595 | i_incomplete | |

7623d340 TC |
615 | Imager 0.55 - 16 Dec 2006 |
616 | =========== | |
617 | ||
618 | This is primarily a bug fix release. | |
619 | ||
620 | Note: Test::More is now a pre-requisite for Imager and is no longer bundled. | |
621 | ||
622 | There is one new feature: | |
623 | ||
624 | - the Win32 font driver now supports UTF8 (RT 22166) | |
625 | http://www.cpanforum.com/threads/3276 | |
626 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=22166 | |
627 | ||
628 | Several bugs were fixed: | |
629 | ||
630 | - the string() method would not output the string "0" | |
631 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21770 | |
632 | ||
633 | - fills.c was failing to compile on Solaris 10 (compiler unknown) | |
634 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21944 | |
635 | ||
636 | - the gif_disposal and gif_user_input tags weren't being read from | |
637 | the file correctly | |
638 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=22192 | |
639 | ||
640 | - gif.c was failing to build under MSVC | |
641 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=23922 | |
642 | ||
643 | - in some cases strings passed to the string() method were treated as | |
644 | terminated by NUL (chr 0) | |
645 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21770 | |
646 | ||
647 | - on "MSWin32" perl builds we now link to -lzlib instead of -lz since | |
648 | that's the default build name for zlib on Win32. | |
649 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=23064 | |
650 | ||
651 | - search $Config{incpath} for headers too, which we should have been | |
652 | doing all along. | |
653 | ||
654 | Win32 font driver fixes: | |
655 | ||
656 | - the global descent value from bounding box was the wrong sign | |
657 | http://www.cpanforum.com/threads/3276 | |
658 | ||
659 | - if the first or last glyph overflowed the left or right side of the | |
660 | advance width they would be clipped | |
661 | ||
662 | ||
663 | Imager 0.54 - 14 Sep 2006 | |
664 | =========== | |
665 | ||
666 | This is primarily a feature release: | |
667 | ||
668 | - a new qtype value 'mixing' has been added to the scale() | |
669 | method. This is faster than 'normal', slower than 'preview'. This | |
670 | is based on the method used by pnmscale, and seems to produce less | |
671 | blurry results than normal. | |
672 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=20677 | |
673 | ||
674 | - the rubthrough() method can now render onto images with an alpha | |
675 | channel. | |
676 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20678 | |
677 | ||
678 | - the read_multi() method now falls back to calling doing a single | |
679 | image read via the read() method and write_multi() will now fall | |
680 | back to calling write() if a single image is supplied. This means | |
681 | you can simply call the read_multi() or write_multi() functions | |
682 | without having to check if the type is formatted by that method. | |
683 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19457 | |
684 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19458 | |
685 | ||
686 | - the GIF loop extension can now be written. If you don't have | |
687 | libungif/giflib 4.1.4 (or some distribution's bugfixed equivalent) you | |
688 | should upgrade. | |
689 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=21185 | |
690 | ||
691 | - getscanline() and setscanline() can now read/write palette index | |
692 | based data from/to the image for paletted images, by setting type to | |
693 | 'index'. | |
694 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20338 | |
695 | ||
696 | - we no longer hassle you to disable GIF support | |
697 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20687 | |
698 | ||
699 | - minor documentation fixes | |
700 | ||
701 | ||
702 | Imager 0.53 - 26 Jul 2006 | |
703 | =========== | |
704 | ||
705 | This is a bugfix release. | |
706 | ||
707 | Some test code was left in a code path not covered by the test | |
708 | suite. A test was added to cover this code path and the test code was | |
709 | removed. | |
710 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=20705 | |
711 | ||
712 | ||
713 | Imager 0.52 - 25 Jul 2006 | |
714 | =========== | |
715 | ||
716 | This is primarily a feature release, but contains a fair few bug | |
717 | fixes, new features: | |
718 | ||
719 | - ability to read and write MS Windows ICO and CUR files | |
720 | ||
721 | - you can now add file format plugins to support new file formats | |
722 | ||
723 | - add POD coverage tests | |
724 | ||
725 | - setcolors() and addcolors() now accept color names and so on | |
726 | instead of requiring Imager::Color objects. | |
727 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20056 | |
728 | ||
729 | - flood_fill() can now fill to a specified border color instead of | |
730 | just to the area the same color as the seed. | |
731 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19618 | |
732 | ||
733 | ||
734 | Bug fixes: | |
735 | ||
736 | - bounding_box for the T1 driver wasn't converting UTF8 to ascii when | |
737 | calculating the advance width. | |
738 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=20554 | |
739 | ||
740 | - bounding_box for the T1 driver wasn't including leading and | |
741 | trailing spaces in the bounding box as the other drivers did, it also | |
742 | produced strange results for empty strings or strings containing only | |
743 | spaces | |
744 | ||
745 | - when reading CMYK jpeg images they were being transferred to the | |
746 | image object as is, producing a four channel image. It only looked ok | |
747 | due to an old still unfixed Photoshop bug. We now convert from the | |
748 | inverted CMYK that photoshop (and Corel for example) produce into RGB. | |
749 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20416 | |
750 | ||
751 | - reading a CYMK TIFF would result in a 4 channel image, reading any | |
752 | image with more than 4 channels (eg. RGB with 2 alpha channels) would | |
753 | result in an error. | |
754 | http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=20415 | |
755 | ||
756 | - added /usr/local/include to the default include search path, since | |
757 | we were already searching /usr/local/lib for libraries. | |
758 | ||
759 | And various minor fixes and documentation updates. | |
760 | ||
761 | ||
762 | Imager 0.51 - 23 Apr 2006 | |
763 | =========== | |
764 | ||
765 | - fix a validation bug when processing JPEG EXIF data that can cause | |
766 | a crash | |
767 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18496 | |
768 | ||
769 | - fix mis-processing of the src_maxx and src_maxy parameters of the | |
770 | paste() method | |
771 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18712 | |
772 | ||
773 | - fix a problem in Imager's "smart" handling of the color parameter | |
774 | to various methods. | |
775 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18561 | |
776 | ||
777 | ||
778 | Imager 0.50 - 29 Mar 2006 | |
779 | =========== | |
780 | ||
781 | - CRITICAL: fixes a segmentation fault from attempting to write a 2 | |
782 | or 4 channel image to jpeg or a 2 channel image to tga where the | |
783 | output is an in-memeory buffer. | |
784 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18397 | |
785 | ||
786 | - fixes an incorrect pointer parameter in the PNG code | |
787 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18051 | |
788 | ||
789 | - skip Inline::C tests when building in a directory with spaces | |
790 | http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=18049 |
