The solution and project files should be automatically upgraded for
the approriate Visual C++ version.
* builds/windows/visualc/freetype.{sln,vcproj}: Major upgrades.
* builds/windows/visualc/index.html: Document the change.
* builds/windows/vc2005, builds/windows/vc2008: Removed as redundant.
* include/freetype/ftsystem.h: Include FT_TYPES_H.
(*FT_Alloc_Func, *FT_Realloc_Func): Use size_t for the size arguments.
* src/raster/ftmisc.h: Ditto.
* builds/amiga/src/base/ftsystem.c, builds/unix/ftsystem.c,
* builds/vms/ftsystem.c, src/base/ftsystem.c (ft_alloc, ft_realloc):
Use size_t for the size arguments.
* src/base/ftdbgmem.c (ft_mem_debug_alloc, ft_mem_debug_realloc): Use
FT_Offset, aka size_t, for the size arguments.
Add checks, rules and variables to the build system for docwriter.
* Running `make' will warn if Python/PIP/docwriter are not available.
* Running `make refdoc' will generate static documentation site on the
current Python environment.
* Running `make refdoc-venv' will generate static documentation site
using a virtual environment, using the pip package `virtualenv'.
We no longer use predefined _DLL, which can be defined for static
builds too with /MD. We use DLL_EXPORT and DLL_IMPORT instead,
following libtool convention.
* CMakeLists.txt [WIN32], builds/windows/vc2010/freetype.vcxproj:
Define DLL_EXPORT manually.
* include/freetype/config/ftconfig.h, builds/unix/ftconfig.in,
builds/vms/ftconfig.h, builds/windows/vc2010/index.html,
src/base/ftver.rc: /_DLL/d, s/FT2_DLLIMPORT/DLL_IMPORT/.
AC_COMPILE_IFELSE only tries to compile a `*.c' to a `*.o'. The
Solaris Studio 12.1 through 12.5 compilers see the
`-fvisibility=hidden' flag, but ignore it with a warning of:
cc: Warning: Option -fvisibility=hidden passed to ld,
if ld is invoked, ignored otherwise
AC_LINK_IFELSE does the compile and then tries to link the result,
at which point the Solaris linker will issue an error:
ld: fatal: option '-fvisibility=hidden' is incompatible with
building a dynamic executable
If we don't use AC_LINK_IFELSE to catch the error, then configure
will fail further tests which attempt to link, such as those testing
dependencies like `libbz2'.
Also, don't try adding `-fvisibility' if we have already added
`-xldscope', just use one of them, since Sun Studio 12 and earlier
compilers only issue a warning, and don't try passing through to the
linker to generate an error, so AC_LINK_IFELSE doesn't catch them.
Tested on Solaris 11.4 beta with compiler versions:
Sun Studio 8 (Sun C 5.5)
Sun Studio 10 (Sun C 5.7)
Sun Studio 11 (Sun C 5.8)
Sun Studio 12 (Sun C 5.9)
Sun Studio 12.1 (Sun C 5.10)
Oracle Solaris Studio 12.2 (Sun C 5.11)
Oracle Solaris Studio 12.3 (Sun C 5.12)
Oracle Solaris Studio 12.4 (Sun C 5.13)
Oracle Developer Studio 12.5 (Sun C 5.14)
Oracle Developer Studio 12.6 (Sun C 5.15)
gcc 5.5.0
gcc 7.3.0
and verified the libfreetype.so.6 generated by each of those
compilers exported the same set of symbols.
* builds/unix/configure.raw: Implement it.
This is due to calling the configure script via `make' (within the
top-level `configure' wrapper script). The same can happen for all
other secondary make targets that are used to only modify the
primary one, e.g., `make setup devel'.
* builds/dos/detect.mk (emx, turboc, watcom, borlandc, borlandc16),
builds/os2/detect (visualage, watcom, borlandc, devel),
builds/unix/detect.mk (devel, lcc, unix), builds/windows/detect.mk
(visualc, watcom, visualage, lcc, mingw32, bcc32, devel-bcc,
devel-gcc): Use no-op recipe.

Thanks to the suggestions by Alexei and Alan Coopersmith.
* builds/unix/configure.raw: Check if "-xldscope=hidden" is
accepted, and if so, it is added to CFLAGS. This is the option
making Sun / Oracle C compilers hide the symbols from global
scope.
* include/freetype/config/ftconfig.h: Use "__global" prefix
for FT_EXPORT() macro, if SunPro C is newer than Sun ONE
Studio 8 (2003).
* builds/unix/ftconfig.in: Ditto.
* builds/vms/ftconfig.h: Ditto.
* CMakeLists.txt, builds/cmake/FindHarfBuzz.cmake: Extensive
modernization measures.
* .gitignore: Add build/, as that's the example directory used in
CMakeLists.txt.
This brings up the minimum required CMake version to 2.8.12.
The installation paths follow the GNU defaults now, e.g. installing on a
64 bit host will place binaries into the lib64/ folder on e.g. Fedora.
Symbols are hidden by default (e.g. `-fvisibility=hidden' on GCC).
CMake will no longer look for a C++ compiler.
Library and .so version now match the Autotools build.
Comments in the build file and informational messages now use platform
agnostic example commands.
ftoption.h and ftconfig.h are written directly without a redundant
`-new' copy.
External dependencies are expressed as option()s and will turn up as
such in cmake-gui.
Internal: Properties such as dependencies and include directories are
now privately set on the freetype library instead of globally.
The CPack definitions have been cleaned up, the `make dist' has been
removed. Source packages generated with CPack don't contain Autotools
files and aren't used by the maintainters anyway.
On Windows, src/base/ftver.rc is compiled to decorate the library with
version and copyright information.
A pkg-config file is now generated and installed.
This fixes the `make refdoc' using Cygwin: $(CAT) is `type' on this
platform, and this program only understands backslashes in paths.
Reported by Nikhil Ramakrishnan <ramakrishnan.nikhil@gmail.com>.
It is now widely recommended that ELF shared libraries hide symbols
except those with explicit __attribute__((visibility("default"))).
This is supported by all major compilers and should rather be an
option in libtool.
* builds/unix/configure.raw: Add -fvisibility=hidden to CFLAGS.
* builds/unix/ftconfig.in, builds/vms/ftconfig.h,
include/freetype/config/ftconfig.h (FT_EXPORT): Use visibility
attribute.
* builds/unix/configure.raw: Check for resource compiler.
* builds/unix/unix-cc.in: Conditionally set up resource compiler.
* builds/freetype.mk: Add conditional rule for `ftver.rc'.
* src/base/ftver.rc: Copyright notice and year update.
=======================
Tag sources with `VER-2-9'.
* docs/VERSION.TXT: Add entry for version 2.9.

Problem reported by Hin-Tak.
* builds/windows/vc2010/freetype.vcxproj: Add files `ftbdf.c' and

Sort entries.
* builds/windows/vc2010/freetype.vcxproj.filter: Ditto.
Fix members of `FT_MODULE' group.
* builds/detect.mk (dos_setup): Don't use literal `>' character at
all. Mixing the different escaping rules from make, dos, and
windows is too fragile.
