You can now write to a chain of buffers and + later slurp it all into a single perl scalar. Found some oddity of t/t10 + test not giving the right return value when malloc debugging was enabled. + Fixed some of the logging code and the malloc debugging options. Added + more tests for tiffs. + +0.38 pre7 - No time yet + - Added i_gradgen code and put it into the filters hash. Think a + seperate pod for filters would be a good idea. Also removed some of the + debugging code from the iolayer. Added pod comments to filters.c and + looked over the code. + +0.38 pre8 - No time yet + - limited Win32 support, Imager installs and builds using VC++, + but there's no image/font format support yet. 0.38 pre9 - No time yet - - Added lots of color quantization code from Tony with benchmarks. - Also fixes ugly stack overrun in old version. Added fixes for the lmfixed - problem. Four of them, let's see which is fastest. This version adds - some voronoi partitioning - it's dog slow but it's a reference implementation - to check if faster algorithms are doing the right thing [tm]. Added a check - for giflib 3. - - Win32 support for libpng - - fixed set_internal creating 2 refs to one object - - Win32 support for jpeg - - Win32 support for tiff - - base level error reporting code added, I still need to modify - older code to use it + - Added lots of color quantization code from Tony with benchmarks. + Also fixes ugly stack overrun in old version.
