| Libpng 1.0.2 - June 14, 1998 |
| |
| This is a public release of libpng, intended for use in production codes. |
| |
| Changes since the previous public release (1.0.1): |
| |
| Optimized Paeth calculations by replacing abs() function calls with intrinsics |
| plus other loop optimizations. Improves avg decoding speed by about 20%. |
| Commented out i386istic "align" compiler flags in makefile.lnx. |
| Reduced the default warning level in some makefiles, to make them consistent. |
| Removed references to IJG and JPEG in the ansi2knr.c copyright statement. |
| Fixed a bug in png_do_strip_filler with XXRRGGBB => RRGGBB transformation. |
| Added grayscale and 16-bit capability to png_do_read_filler(). |
| Fixed a bug in pngset.c, introduced in version 0.99c, that sets rowbytes |
| too large when writing an image with bit_depth < 8 (Bob Dellaca). |
| Corrected some bugs in the experimental weighted filtering heuristics. |
| Moved a misplaced pngrutil code block that truncates tRNS if it has more |
| than num_palette entries -- test was done before num_palette was defined. |
| Fixed a png_convert_to_rfc1123() bug that converts day 31 to 0 (Steve Eddins). |
| Changed compiler flags in makefile.wat for better optimization (Pawel Mrochen). |
| Relocated png_do_gray_to_rgb() within png_do_read_transformations() (Greg). |
| Relocated the png_composite macros from pngrtran.c to png.h (Greg). |
| Added makefile.sco (contributed by Mike Hopkirk). |
| Fixed a bug in pngrtran.c that would set channels=5 under some circumstances. |
| Added warnings when people try to use transforms they've defined out. |
| Collapsed 4 "i" and "c" loops into single "i" loops in pngrtran and pngwtran. |
| Revised paragraph about png_set_expand() in libpng.txt and libpng.3 (Greg) |
| Added max_pixel_depth=32 in pngrutil.c when using FILLER with palette images. |
| Moved PNG_WRITE_WEIGHTED_FILTER_SUPPORTED and PNG_WRITE_FLUSH_SUPPORTED |
| out of the PNG_WRITE_TRANSFORMS_NOT_SUPPORTED block of pngconf.h |
| Added "PNG_NO_WRITE_TRANSFORMS" etc., as alternatives for *_NOT_SUPPORTED, |
| for consistency, in pngconf.h |
| Added individual "ifndef PNG_NO_CAPABILITY" for the capabilities in pngconf.h |
| to make it easier to remove unwanted capabilities via the compile line |
| Made some corrections to grammar (which, it's) in documentation (Greg). |
| Corrected example.c, use of row_pointers in png_write_image(). |
| Revised png_read_rows() to avoid repeated if-testing for NULL (A Kleinert) |
| More corrections to example.c, use of row_pointers in png_write_image() |
| and png_read_rows(). |
| Added pngdll.mak and pngdef.pas to scripts directory, contributed by |
| Bob Dellaca, to make a png32bd.dll with Borland C++ 4.5 |
| Fixed error in example.c with png_set_text: num_text is 3, not 2 (Guido V.) |
| Changed several loops from count-down to count-up, for consistency. |
| Revised libpng.txt and libpng.3 description of png_set_read|write_fn(), and |
| added warnings when people try to set png_read_fn and png_write_fn in |
| the same structure. |
| Added a test such that png_do_gamma will be done when num_trans==0 |
| for truecolor images that have defined a background. This corrects an |
| error that was introduced in libpng-0.90 that can cause gamma processing |
| to be skipped. |
| Added tests in png.h to include "trans" and "trans_values" in structures |
| when PNG_READ_BACKGROUND_SUPPORTED or PNG_READ_EXPAND_SUPPORTED is defined. |
| Add png_free(png_ptr->time_buffer) in png_destroy_read_struct() |
| Moved png_convert_to_rfc_1123() from pngwrite.c to png.c |
| Added capability for user-provided malloc_fn() and free_fn() functions, |
| and revised pngtest.c to demonstrate their use, replacing the |
| PNGTEST_DEBUG_MEM feature. |
| Added makefile.w32, for Microsoft C++ 4.0 and later (Tim Wegner). |
| Fixed two bugs in makefile.bor |
