pnglibconf.h, allowing more of the decisions to be made internally
(pngpriv.h) during the compile. Without this, symbol prefixing is broken
under certain circumstances on ARM platforms. Now only the API parts of
the optimizations ('check' vs 'api') are exposed in the public header files
except that the new setting PNG_ARM_NEON_OPT documents how libpng makes the
decision about whether or not to use the optimizations.
only works with libpng versions that can be made to reliably fail when
the deflate data contains an out-of-window reference. This means only
1.6 and later.
Fixed gnu issues: g++ needs a static_cast, gcc 4.4.7 has a broken warning
message which it is easier to work round than ignore.
For inflate, reverted previous fixes.
Added fixitxt and pngdeflate to the built programs and removed warnings
from the source code and timepng that are revealed as a result. Fixed
fixitxt when the chunk length is more than 65535 (untested, no test case).
png_set of the transform function, but that doesn't matter unless the
transform function changes the rowbuf size, and that is only valid if
transform_info is called.
library (Claudio Bley):
Introduced a PNG_LIB_TARGETS variable that lists all activated library
targets. It is an error if this variable ends up empty, ie. you have
to build at least one library variant.
Made the *_COPY targets only depend on library targets actually being build.
Use PNG_LIB_TARGETS to unify a code path.
Changed the CREATE_SYMLINK macro to expact the full path to a file as the
first argument. When symlinking the filename component of that path is
determined and used as the link target.
Use copy_if_different in the CREATE_SYMLINK macro.
a flag to change default. In 1.6.0 when the simplified API was used
to produce color-mapped output from an input image with no gamma
information the gamma assumed for the input could be different from
that assumed for non-color-mapped output. In particular 16-bit depth
input files were assumed to be sRGB encoded, whereas in the 'direct'
case they were assumed to have linear data. This was an error. The
fix makes the simplified API treat all input files the same way and
adds a new flag to the png_image::flags member to allow the
application/user to specify that 16-bit files contain sRGB data
rather than the default linear.
Fixed bugs in the pngpixel and makepng test programs.
prefixing This adds an API to set optimization options externally,
providing an alternative and general solution for the non-portable
run-time tests used by the ARM Neon code. It also makes those tests
compile and link on Android.
The order of settings vs options in pnglibconf.h is reversed to allow
settings to depend on options and options can now set (or override) the
defaults for settings.
option:
--enable-arm-neon=always will stop the run-time checks. New checks
within arm/arm_init.c will cause the code not to be compiled unless
__ARM_NEON__ is set. This should make it fail safe (if someone asks
for it on then the build will fail if it can't be done.)
Fixed ALIGNED_MEMORY support.
which demonstrates the tokenization problem previously avoided by using /lib/cpp.
Since all .dfn output is now protected in double quotes unless it is to be macro
substituted the fix should work everywhere.
internal 'prefix.h' file can only be generated correctly after
pnglibconf.h, however the dependency was not in Makefile.am. The
symptoms are unpredictable depending on the order make chooses to
build pngprefix.h and pnglibconf.h, often the error goes unnoticed
because there is a system pnglibconf.h to use instead.
by earlier versions of GCC fixed for Cygwin and Min/GW (which both use old GCCs.)
ARM support is enabled by default in zlib.props (unsupported by Microsoft) and
ARM compilation is made possible by deleting the check for x86. The test programs
cannot be run because they are not signed.
READ_GAMMA. Prior to 1.6.0 switching off READ_GAMMA did unpredictable things
to the interfaces that use it (specifically, png_do_background in 1.4 would
simply display composite for grayscale images but do composition
with the incorrect arithmetic for color ones). In 1.6 the semantic
of -DPNG_NO_READ_GAMMA is changed to simply disable any interface that
depends on it; this obliges people who set it to consider whether they
really want it off if they happen to use any of the interfaces in
question (typically most users who disable it won't).
management system (CMS). In practice it is not possible to obtain cHRM
information reliably using just the end-point tags because they do not exist
in the vast majority of profiles. Instead it is necessary to run the endpoints
through the ICC colorimetric intent transform (as described in the v4
spec). Since this is likely to be too much code inside libpng for too
little gain (it implies a fairly complete CMS implementation) the code
has been changed to allow an external CMS to be used. This code is
temporarily disabled until a suitable set of test cases using one or more
external CMS implementations have been implemented.
type rules. By the ANSI-C standard the new types should be identical to the
previous versions, and all known versions of gcc tested with the previous
versions except for GCC-4.2.1 work with this version. The change makes the
ANSI-C rule that const applied to an array of elements applies instead to the
elements in the array moot by explicitly applying const to the base
elements of the png_icc_matrix and png_icc_vector types. The accidental
(harmless) 'const' previously applied to the parameters of two of the
functions have also been removed.
fixed Cygwin+MSVC build errors. The ICC profile handling now includes more
checking. Several errors that caused rejection of the profile are now
handled with a warning in such a way that the invalid profiles will be
read by default in release (but not pre-RC) builds but will not be
written by default. The easy part of handling a cHRM chunk is written,
where the ICC profile contains the required data. The more difficult
part plus guessing a gAMA value requires code to pass selected RGB values
through the profile.
option to pngtest. The "--relaxed" option turns off the benign errors that are
enabled by default in pre-RC builds. makepng can now write ICC profiles
where the length has not been extended to a multiple of 4, and pngtest
now intercepts all libpng errors, allowing the previously-introduced
"--strict test" on no warnings to actually work.
contrib/libtests/makepng: corrected 'rgb' and 'gray' cases. profile_error
messages could be truncated; made a correct buffer size calculation and
adjusted pngerror.c appropriately. png_icc_check_* checking improved;
changed the functions to receive the correct color type of the PNG on read
or write and check that it matches the color space of the profile (despite
what the comments said before, there is danger in assuming the app will
cope correctly with an RGB profile on a grayscale image and, since it
violates the PNG spec, allowing it is certain to produce inconsistent
app behavior and might even cause app crashes.) Check that profiles
contain the tags needed to process the PNG (tags all required by the ICC
spec). Removed unused PNG_STATIC from pngpriv.h.
png_handle_unknown() when SAVE support is absent. Moved the shell test
scripts for contrib/libtests from the libpng top directory to contrib/libtests.
png_handle_unknown() must always read or skip the chunk, if
SAVE_UNKNOWN_CHUNKS is turned off *and* the application does not set
a user callback an unknown chunk will not be read, leading to a read
error, which was revealed by the "tunknown" test.
libpng handling of unknown chunks other than vpAg and sTER (including
unsafe-to-copy chunks which were dropped before) and eliminates the
repositioning of vpAg and sTER in pngtest.png by changing pngtest.png
(so the chunks are where libpng would put them).
png_set_keep_unknown_chunks() to be turned off if not required and causes
both read and write to behave appropriately (on read this is only possible
if the user callback is used to handle unknown chunks). The change
also removes the support for storing unknown chunks in the info_struct
if the only unknown handling enabled is via the callback, allowing libpng
to be configured with callback reading and none of the unnecessary code.
control of the unknown handling, corrects the pre-existing bug where
the per-chunk 'keep' setting is ignored and makes it possible to skip
IDAT chunks in the sequential reader (broken in earlier 1.6 versions).
There is a new test program, test-unknown.c, which is a work in progress
(not currently part of the test suite). Comments in the header files now
explain how the unknown handling works.
support. Now "make check" will succeed even if libpng is compiled with
-DPNG_NO_READ or -DPNG_NO_WRITE. The tests performed are reduced, but the
basic reading and writing of a PNG file is always tested by one or more of
the tests.
errors) and cause it not to fail at the comparison step if libpng lacks support
for writing chunks that it reads from the input (currently only implemented
for compressed text chunks).
on read and write. In libpng 1.6 the two cases can be distinguished and
considerable code cleanup, and extra error checking, is possible. This
makes calls on the write side that have no effect be ignored with a
png_app_error(), which can be disabled in the app using
png_set_benign_errors(), and removes the spurious use of usr_channels
on the read side.
Because of the changes to support symbol prefixing PNG_INTERNAL_FUNCTION
declares floating point APIs during libpng builds even if they are completely
disabled. This requires the png floating point types (png_double*) to be
declared even though the functions are never actually defined. This
change provides a dummy definition so that the declarations work, yet any
implementation will fail to compile because of an incomplete type.
ignore all unknown chunks and all known chunks except for IHDR, PLTE, tRNS,
IDAT, and IEND. Previously it only meant ignore all unknown chunks, the
same as num_chunks == 0. Revised png_image_skip_unused_chunks() to
provide a list of chunks to be processed instead of a list of chunks to
ignore. Revised contrib/gregbook/readpng2.c accordingly.
