- removed all references to the www.eecs.umich.edu page and changed
them to imager.perl.org ones.
-0.43pre1
- - added log() and exp() functions to transform2()
+0.43
+ - added log() and exp() functions to transform2()
- change the getpN() functions in transform2() to set a
reasonable alpha if the input image has no alpha
- document the constants that transform2() defines
- skip the right number of tests when FT2 isn't available
+ - This version pushed to CPAN because of skip problem in FT2 test.
+
+0.43_01 Fri 8 Oct 2004
+ - only call FT_Get_Postscript_Name() on FT 2.0.6 and later
+ - put the IM_LIBPATH and IM_INCPATH values first in the search
+ path so the builder gets their local versions if desired rather
+ than the system versions they might be trying to avoid
+ - document the exp() and log() transform2() functions
+ - document the constants normally set by transform2().
+ - refer the user to appropriate documents in the example in
+ Imager.pm
+ - change the list of documents in Imager.pm to move the document
+ names out of the =item lines so we can make them into links
+ - the scale() method now produces a warning when called in
+ void context.
+ - font.c now only uses the defined T1Lib error codes
+ - update ppport.h and remove the duplicate definitions from
+ Imager.xs. Had to mangle ppport.h to prevent duplicate global
+ function definitions.
+ - newer versions of tifflib require that all of the function
+ pointers passed to TIFFClientOpen be non-NULL, the mmap() and
+ munmap() pointers were always NULL and the sizeproc was
+ sometimes NULL.
+ - there would be a link or load time error on m_init_log() if
+ Imager was built with IM_NOLOG, fixed by renamed init_log()
+ to m_init_log() in log.c (thanks to Takumi Yamani)
+ - moved some variable definitions to the right place
+ - the Win32 font driver bounding box function now returns the
+ right number of values (both thanks to Takumi Yamani)
+ - the Win32 font driver now uses DEFAULT_CHARSET rather than
+ ANSI_CHARSET are the lfCharSet value for the LOGFONT,
+ as suggested by Takumi Yamani.
+ - fontfiles/ExistenceTest.{pfb,ttf} weren't marked as
+ binary in the CVS repository (caused test failures if you
+ built from CVS on Win32)
+ - Makefile.PL should now handle INCLUDE or LIB with spaces in them
+ correctly on Win32.
+ - the pnm reader read maxval for ppm/pgm files and then ignored it,
+ it's now validated (0 < maxval < 65536) and used to scale
+ samples. Note that binary ppm/pgm files (P6/P5) with maxval >
+ 255 result in an error, since I didn't want to add new features
+ just yet, just get the code that's there working correctly.
+ Thanks to Elthek on rhizo for reporting this and help in
+ tracking it down.
+ Resolves https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=7465
+ - added a bunch of tests for reading pnm files.
+ - previously, if you supplied to_paletted and empty color map
+ and set make_colors to 'none', quant_translate() would segfault.
+ This was because it was making the reasonable assumption that
+ you'd have colors to map to. quant_translate() now checks there
+ is at least one color and return NULL if there isn't.
+ - i_img_to_pal() now does error checking of the value returned by
+ quant_translate().
+ - Imager::to_paletted() now checks for success/failure of
+ i_img_to_pal() correctly and does appropriate error handling.
+ - i_writegif_low() did no error checking on the result of
+ quant_translate(), it now does
+ - we now test that trying to write a GIF image with no palette
+ allowable by the quant options is a failure.
+ - Imager::write() was doing nothing with the result of the call
+ to i_writegif_gen(), in particular it wasn't returning () on
+ failure.
+ - added tests for paletted image handling and the methods
+ specific to those images
+ - the XS for i_setcolors() was missing the OUTPUT clause for
+ RETVAL, and hence wasn't returning failure on failure.
+ - supplying a sufficiently small scaling value could make the
+ scale() method return an image with zero height or width.
+ Several of the above together resolve
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=7467
+ - the void context warning for scale() now includes the callers
+ filename/line (instead of the default of Imager.pm line 15xx)
+ - Imager->new will now return undef if the dimensions or number of
+ channels specified for an image are out of range. An error
+ message can be retrieved with Imager->errstr.
+ - added the C<builtin> color specifier and the
+ Imager::Color::Table class which defines those colors.
+ Resolves https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2593
+ - added the equals() method to Imager::Color.
+ Resolves https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2238
+ - prevent a test warning introduced by the above
+ - the rotate() and matrix_transform() methods now accept a 'back'
+ parameter specifying a background color. This is only used
+ where there is no source data (think of the corners around an
+ image rotated 45 degrees) and it not combined with transparent
+ pixels from the source image.
+ Resolves https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=6140
+ - removed a warning generated by the new matrix_transform() test
+ - added a method index to Imager.pm
+ - corrected "flood fill" to "flood_fill" in Imager/Draw.pod
+ - removed compose() method from Imager/Transformations.pod since
+ it isn't implemented yet
+ - the image resulting from a crop is now the same type as the
+ source image (paletted vs direct, bits/sample)
+ Resolves https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=7578
+ - the parameters to crop() weren't handled correctly in most
+ cases other than supplying left,top,right,bottom.
+ - clarified the documentation for crop() providing more detail
+ and more examples
+ - the edges of the cropped area are now cropped against the
+ edges of the source image
+ - cropping to zero width/height is treated as an error (no
+ image is returned and $src->errstr has a message)
+ Resolves https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=7581
+ - built 0.43_01 for testing
+
+0.43_02 Mon 26 Oct 2004
+
+- the changes to scale() had some problems with integer vs floating point
+ calculations (only caught in tests under perl 5.8.5 <sigh>)
+- the FT2 glyph_names() method didn't do correct error handling
+ when the string parameter wasn't supplied
+- i_ft2_glyph_name() accepted only an unsigned char as the
+ character code to get the name for, which meant it
+ didn't work for unicode characters \x{100} or above
+- the XS for i_ft2_glyph_name() had a similar problem
+- added NameTest.ttf to be used in checking unicode glyph
+ names
+- added reliable_only optional parameter to the glyph_names()
+ method so you can ignore theresult of FT_Has_PS_Glyph_Names()
+- handle errors given by i_ft2_glyph_name() a bit more
+ correctly
+- the FT1 glyph_names() method didn't do correct error handling
+ when the string parameter wasn't supplied
+- some memory allocated when creating a callback IO object (io_new_cb)
+ wasn't being released (detected with valgrind)
+- the testtools.pl match[nx]() functions escapes the test string on
+ test failure a bit better
+- the XS code for i_tt_glyph_name() used unsigned char to store a
+ unicode character when it should have used unsigned long.
+- the XS code for i_t1_glyph_name() used unsigned char to store a
+ unicode character when it should have used unsigned long.
+- resolves https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=7949
+- the type 1 glyph_names() method didn't do correct error handling
+ when the string parameter wasn't supplied
+- renamed io.h to imio.h to prevent problems building under cygwin.
+ resolve https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=7948
+- i_writegif_low() wasn't setting the returned global palette, which
+ meant a rubbish palette was returned to the user (detected with valgrind)
+- built 0.43_02 for testing
+
+0.43_03 Wed 8 Dec 2004
+
+- change the "double-include" protection macro that imio.h uses.
+- updated download locations for the various libraries that Imager
+ depends on. Added some advice for cygwin.
+- more information on gif library versions in README and Makefile.PL
+- creating an image where the size of the allocated image buffer would
+ overflow an integer would cause too small a buffer to be allocated.
+ This could potentially be a security hole.
+ partly resolves https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=8213
+- set i_format to jpeg for jpeg files and test for it
+- set i_format to png when reading png files and test for it
+- i_yres was being set to the xres when reading a png file
+- added many bad BMP files to test various code paths in bmp.c, and
+ made many minor fixes to bmp.c to make them work:
+ - it was possible for various types of read failures to SEGV, both
+ as NULL pointer dereferences and buffer overflows
+ - some errors, like palettes being too large for the number of bits
+ per pixel, were not being caught
+ - failing to read all of a packed data structure would not cause
+ a read failure
+ - invalid compression types were not always caught
+ - error messages are more consistent (still not always great messages,
+ but one step at a time)
+- added bmp_compression_name, bmp_used_colors, bmp_filesize, bmp_bit_count
+ tags on reading a BMP file
+- added tools/imager to the distribution. This is still very
+ experimental and untested. Patches welcome, if you write tests to go
+ with them.
+- the BMP reader now validates the bfOffBits value from the BMP header
+ and skips to that offset before reading image data. Previously this
+ value was read but otherwise ignored.
+- added --palette action to tools/imager
+- i_img_pal_new() now releases the image object memory if creation
+ fails.
+- set i_format to gif when reading gif files and test for it
+- set i_format to pnm when reading pnm files and test for it
+- set i_format to tga when reading tga files and test for it
+- handle image creation failures when reading tga files
+- set i_format to tiff when reading tiff images and test for it
+- handle image creation failures when reading tiff files
+- test t/t35ttfont.t no longer requires TTFONTTEST to be set (and
+ hasn't for a long time,) removed that requirement from README
+- updated home page URLs throughout the .pods
+- added information on reporting bugs to the SUPPORT section of Imager.pm
+- regops.perl now sorts the dumped data structure to produce minimal diffs
+- quant.c now checks for integer overflow allocating its image data
+- i_readraw_wiol() now checks for image creation failure
+- i_readrgb_wiol() now checks for image creation failure
+- i_writergb_wiol() was an empty stub, it now pushes an error message
+ and explicitly returns failure.
+- i_readrgb_wiol() now sets i_format to rgb.
+- set i_format to raw when reading tga files and test for it
+- document i_format tag
+- some tests were using $Config{ivsize} when they should have been
+ using $Config{intsize}
+ Resolves: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=8645
+- tools/imager has been removed from the MANIFEST, it's way too late
+ to test/debug for 0.44.
+- image.h had no prototype for i_ft2_bbox_r() and it was being called
+ from Imager.xs
+- giflib 4.1.3 still doesn't have all the bugs fixed, update the notes
+ in README and in the buggy_giflib.txt file that t105gif.t produces
+- make the inclusion of NO_META dependent on the version of EU::MM.
+ I was going to include a META.yml but EU::MM's generation is too
+ simplistic (and misses the leading document header too). For now
+ I'll leave it out.
+- built 0.43_03 for testing
+
+0.44 Wed 15 Dec 2004
+- modify the default include directories list to include the location
+ FreeBSD keeps freetype1 headers after the freetype2 locations.
+ This ensures that the -I options are generated with freetype2
+ locations first, so that those directories are searched before
+ the freetype1 directories. This prevents problems compiling
+ font.c on FreeBSD.
+ Resolves: http://rt-cpan.fsck.com/Ticket/Display.html?id=1723
+- finish off a sentence in the "Producing an image from a CGI script"
+ example in Imager::Files
+- method index didn't include errstr()
+- document that you don't want the FT2 freetype.h in the include path
+
+0.44_01
+- the plugins Makefile has long produced an error after all tests were
+ complete on Win32, finally tracked down why
+- Makefile.PL now checks the directories specified by $Config{locincpth}
+ and $Config{loclibpth} for includes and libraries respectively.
+ Resolves: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2942
+- we were undefing the wrong macro (used as an include guard) when
+ building the error code translation function for freetype 2. This
+ meant most errors came out as numbers.
+- add a note to the README on how to get font suitcases and dfont files
+ working on OS X.
+- add dfont to the list of extensions supported by ft2
+- document Imager::Font->new()'s index parameter
+- added concept index to Imager.pm's POD
+- the gradgen filter now does the same color value conversion that
+ Imager's drawing functions do.
+- added trivial multiple master support via the FT2 driver
+- added .pcf and .pcf.gz to the list of extensions supported by ft2
+- the tiff reader now puts warning messages produced during reading into
+ the i_warning tag.
+ Resolves: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=8722
+- the i_xres and i_yres tags are now stored in a resolution similar
+ to their source.
+ Resolves: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=8520
+- added tiff_resolutionunit_name tag when reading tiff files
+- Makefile.PL now attempts to use freetype-config to configure freetype 2
+ and pkg-config to configure libpng.
+- avoid complaining about include/lib directories we pull from
+ perl's config or we have built-in
+- Makefile.PL now builds imconfig.h with #defines for libraries
+ present (and for the GIF library version) rather than putting them
+ into CFLAGS
+- scanning for required include files is now down by directory rather
+ than by file, using -e to check for the existence for a file rather than
+ doing an eq against every filename in the directory.
+- previously we only checked a candidate include directory for freetype.h
+ to consider it a valid FT1.x include directory. We now check if it
+ contains fterrors.h too, if it does, then it's from a FT2 installation
+ and we ignore it.
+- Makefile.PL now accepts command-line options to set include and library
+ directories and to enable/disable drivers.
+- added simple examples to most of the filters documented in
+ Imager::Filters
+- explicitly document there are no PNG specific tags.
+- more examples in Imager::Draw
+- minor cleanup of Imager::Fill
+- eliminate unused variables and static functions
+- simplify some XS code by adding another typemap entry
+- the right-side bearing used to adjust the final width wasn't being
+ calculated correctly, this would cause the bounding_box() function for
+ freetype 2.x to return a larger than expected text width.
+ http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=11291
+- add scaleX/scaleY to the method index and gives them some examples
+ http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=11328
+- call read() instead of open() in the example code in Imager.pm,
+ and mention that open() is an alias for read().
+ http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=11431
+- added reference list of crop() parameters.
+ http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=11430
+- reading a tga image with an idstring of 128 or more bytes would result
+ in an allocation error, if the platform char type was signed
+- tests now check that tga tags are set
+- calling the read() method for a format not included in the Imager build,
+ for example, JPEG with no libjpeg installed, would crash with an
+ undefined function error (modified by DynaLoaders dependence on
+ AutoLoader.)
+ http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=9618
+- some test scripts have been modified to use Test::More, which is now
+ included under the t directory. Eventually all will be modified to use
+ Test::More and the duplicates in t/testtools.pl will be removed
+- the convert, crop, rotate, copy, matrix_transform, to_paletted, to_rgb8,
+ scaleX and scaleY methods now warn when called in void context.
+ http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=9672
+- correct email addresses in the README file, and include bug reporting
+ information there too
+- added README for samples directory, describes interleave.pl and
+ anaglyph.pl to start.
+- the XS for the internal i_glin() function wasn't copying the pixel
+ values across to the returned color objects.
+ http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=11860
+- Imager::Cookbook wasn't included in the MANIFEST
+- added samp-form.cgi and samp-image.cgi to the samples directory to
+ demonstrate displaying a generated image on a HTML page.
+- Makefile.PL now adds rules to generate a suitable META.yml to the
+ generated Makefile.
+- added sample code for handling images uploaded via a HTML form.
+- saving a GIMP gradiant file with Imager::Fountain->save has always been
+ broken. Fixed it and added tests.
+- newer versions of GIMP add a line to gradient files before the
+ segment count giving a descriptive name of the gradient.
+ Imager::Fountain can now read and write such gradient files. The
+ interface is a bit indirect, but I'd like to preserve
+ Imager::Fountain as a blessed array ref for now.
+- the segments parameter supplied to the fountain filter and the
+ fountain fill contructor now accepts color names or other
+ descriptions as other functions do.
+- fix a few compiler warnings
+- document the Imager::Font::BBox advance_width() method
+- Imager::Font::BBox advance_width() method was falling back to
+ the wrong value when the font driver's low level function
+ didn't return the advance width.
+- the FT 1.x was comparing versus an uninitialized variable when
+ checking the end of string when calculating the right side bearing
+ used to adjust pos_width for glyphs that overlap the right side of the
+ advance width.
+- Imager::Font::BBox objects now have right_bearing() and display_width()
+ methods. Hopefully this and the advance_width() method fills out
+ the Imager bounding box interface to a useful state.
+ Implemented for FT2, FT1.x, T1Lib so far.
