Imager release history. Older releases can be found in Changes.old
- - NOTE: possibly backward incompatible
+ - when drawing on an image with an alpha channel where the source
+ minimum is greater than zero, Imager would read from beyond the end
+ of a malloc() allocated buffer. In rare circumstances this could
+ lead to some of the source image not being written to the target
+ image, or possibly to a segmentation fault.
+ I don't believe this has any security concerns beyond that.

+Imager 0.97 - 15 Jul 2013
+===========
+
+No changes from 0.96_02.
+
+Imager 0.96_02 - 8 Jul 2013
+==============
+
+ - PNG: treat a version mismatch between headers and library as a
+ probe failure.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=86659
+
+ - PNG: the check for benign error support is more complex than a
+ simple library version check, check for the appropriate macro.
+ Thanks for Slaven Rezic for following up on my CPAN Testers result
+ queries.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=86659
+
+ - W32: add a missing head1 AUTHORS to the old Win32.pm
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=86658
+
+Imager 0.96_01 - 1 Jul 2013
+==============
+
+ - TIFF: handle SampleFormat = 2 by translating the signed integer
+ values to unsigned by flipping their sign bits.
+
+ Handle SampleFormat = 3 where possible.
+
+ SampleFormat is ignored for paletted images.
+
+ Mixed SampleFormat are handled incorrectly, since libtiff returns
+ only the first SampleFormat value, and an image with both an alpha
+ channel and SampleFormat = 2 for color channels probably has a
+ different SampleFormat for the alpha channel.
+
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=74540
+
+ - XS clean up:
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=69243
+
+ - Imager::Color's rgba() method now returns its values as integers
+ instead of floating point. (IV instead of NV).
+
+ - The XS for i_map() and i_matrix_transform() now use the AV *
+ typemap instead of rolling their own.
+
+ - The XS for DSO_call() now uses the HV * typemap instead of
+ rolling it's own.
+
+ - The XS for i_poly_aa(), i_poly_aa_cfill(), i_transform() and
+ i_gradgen() now use a new T_AVARRAY typemap that greatly
+ simplifies the XS code.
+
+ - many other minor XS changes
+
+ - some XS code formatting
+
+ - TT (Freetype 1.x) and FT2 (Freetype 2.x) non-antialiased rendering
+ now renders in alpha-combining mode, to match antialiased output.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=73359
+
+ - add sample code and cookbook notes for drawing a blurred drop-shadow.
+
+ - add support for libpng 1.6, which changed the defaults for
+ reporting some types of error.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=85746
+
+ - FT2: use gsamp/psamp() to transfer pixels from the work image to
+ the output image instead of gpix/ppix.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=83478
+
+ - eliminate various GCC warnings, mostly initialized but otherwise
+ unused variables.
+
+Imager 0.96 - 19 May 2013
+===========
+
+ - rearrange Imager's test files.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=84596
+
+ - Imager::Probe::_gcc_lib_paths now forces C locale.
+ A sufficiently recent gcc prints localized keys for the search
+ paths, which avoids that localization.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=84963
+
+ - fix a pod error detected by Pod::Simple 3.27 and laterm and skip
+ pod tests unless AUTOMATED_TESTING or IMAGER_AUTHOR_TESTING is set
+ and true.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=85262
+ reported by Andreas König
+
+ - add a test for unclosed POD in C source, and fix the errors it
+ found.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=74875
+
+ - fix some spelling errors detected by the newer aspell in Debian
+ Wheezy.
+
+ - remove a trailing ' from lib/Imager/Font/Test.pm's POD
+ thanks to gregor herrmann <gregoa@debian.org>
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=85413
+
+ - add a test for standard =head1 commands and fix the errors found
+
+Imager 0.95 - 19 Apr 2013
+===========
+
+ - handle the SVf_UTF8 flag correctly on magic strings passed to
+ Imager::IO's write() and raw_write() methods.
+ This may misbehave in perl 5.6.x since the UTF8 flag may not be
+ visible in the main SV after SvGETMAGIC().
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=83438
+
+ - document that bounding_box() ignores the transformation matrix
+ supplied to tranform() for fonts.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=84106
+
+Imager 0.94_02 - 5 Apr 2013
+==============
+
+ - enable debug logging for the standard font tests
+
+ - skip the overloaded UTF-8 text output checks on 5.6.x and earlier,
+ due to a bug in that version of perl.
+
+ - don't test for read() failing on a write-only handle in 5.8.x and
+ earlier, this was fixed in change 862083f7e4 in perl.
+
+ - report the version of Inline found during testing (an attempt to
+ diagnose some intermittent failures.)
+
+Imager 0.94_01 - 2 Mar 2013
+==============
+
+ - NOTE: possibly backward incompatible:
support reading from/writing to perl filehandes that aren't raw
files.
This allows Imager's I/O to honour handles with layers such as
gzip, scalar file handles or tied file handles.
- This is backward in-compatible in that previous Imager would simply
+ This is backward incompatible in that previous Imager would simply
use fileno() to retrieve the fd for the file and call write(2) etc
on it directly.
https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=78843
more accessible to the "web" generation, also significantly updated
and re-worked it.
+ - updated README's for the separately distributed modules to refer to
+ Imager::Install, and that they need -dev versions of packages
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=81265
+
- the JPEG test code now reports the compile-time library version
+ - avoid a possible compiler optimization issue on CentOS 5.9 i386 by
+ rearranging (and mildly optimizing) some code.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=83212
+
+ - fix a POD error in Imager::Fill (detected on new Pod-Simple)
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=83434
+
+ - fix a broken link to Graphics::Magick
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=82743
+
+ - drawing text to a channel with FT2 would draw with random coverage
+ due to an uninitialized alpha channel.
+
+ - marked the function pointer underlying the mm_log() API with the
+ correct gcc magic and fixed the resulting warnings.
+
+ - fixed some other compiler warnings
+
+ - Imager::Font::W32 now properly reports text drawing errors
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=70098
+
+ - handle the SVf_UTF8 flag correctly on magic (eg. overloaded)
+ strings passed as text to draw(), bounding_box(), has_chars(),
+ glyph_names() (where supported) in each of the font drivers.
+ This may misbehave in perl 5.6.x since the UTF8 flag may not be
+ visible in the main SV after SvGETMAGIC().
