Changes since the last public release (1.4.1):
version 1.5.0beta01 [February 7, 2010]
Moved declaration of png_struct into private pngstruct.h and png_info
into pnginfo.h
version 1.5.0beta02 [February 7, 2010]
Reverted to original png_push_save_buffer() code.
version 1.5.0beta03 [February 8, 2010]
Return allocated "old_buffer" in png_push_save_buffer() before
calling png_error().
Updated configure script to use SO number 15.
version 1.5.0beta04 [February 9, 2010]
Removed malformed "incomplete struct declaration" of png_info from png.h
version 1.5.0beta05 [February 12, 2010]
Removed PNG_DEPSTRUCT markup in pngstruct.h and pnginfo.h, and undid the
linewrapping that it entailed.
Revised comments in pngstruct.h and pnginfo.h and added pointers to
the libpng license.
Changed PNG_INTERNAL to PNG_EXPOSE_INTERNAL_STRUCTURES
Removed the cbuilder5 project, which has not been updated to 1.4.0.
version 1.4.1beta12 and 1.5.0beta06 [February 14, 2010]
Fixed type declaration of png_get_chunk_malloc_max() in pngget.c (Daisuke
Nishikawa)
version 1.5.0beta07 [omitted]
version 1.5.0beta08 [February 19, 2010]
Changed #ifdef PNG_NO_STDIO_SUPPORTED to #ifdef PNG_NO_CONSOLE_IO_SUPPORTED
wherever png_snprintf() is used to construct error and warning messages.
Noted in scripts/makefile.mingw that it expects to be run under MSYS.
Removed obsolete unused MMX-querying support from contrib/gregbook
Added exported png_longjmp() function.
Removed the AIX redefinition of jmpbuf in png.h
Added -D_ALLSOURCE in configure.ac, makefile.aix, and CMakeLists.txt
when building on AIX.
version 1.5.0beta09 [February 19, 2010]
Removed -D_ALLSOURCE from configure.ac, makefile.aix, and CMakeLists.txt.
Changed the name of png_ptr->jmpbuf to png_ptr->png_jmpbuf in pngstruct.h
version 1.5.0beta10 [February 25, 2010]
Removed unused gzio.c from contrib/pngminim gather and makefile scripts
Removed replacement error handlers from contrib/gregbook. Because of
the new png_longjmp() function they are no longer needed.
version 1.5.0beta11 [March 6, 2010]
Removed checking for already-included setjmp.h from pngconf.h
Fixed inconsistent indentations and made numerous cosmetic changes.
version 1.5.0beta12 [March 9, 2010]
Moved "#include png.h" inside pngpriv.h and removed "#include png.h" from
the source files, along with "#define PNG_EXPOSE_INTERNAL_STRUCTURES"
and "#define PNG_NO_PEDANTIC_WARNINGS" (John Bowler).
Created new pngdebug.h and moved debug definitions there.
version 1.5.0beta13 [March 10, 2010]
Protect pngstruct.h, pnginfo.h, and pngdebug.h from being included twice.
Revise the "#ifdef" blocks in png_inflate() so it will compile when neither
PNG_USER_CHUNK_MALLOC_MAX nor PNG_SET_CHUNK_MALLOC_LIMIT_SUPPORTED
is defined.
Removed unused png_measure_compressed_chunk() from pngpriv.h and libpngpf.3
Moved the 'config.h' support from pngconf.h to pngpriv.h
Removed PNGAPI from the png_longjmp_ptr typedef.
Eliminated dependence of pngtest.c on the private pngdebug.h file.
Make all png_debug macros into *unterminated* statements or
expressions (i.e. a trailing ';' must always be added) and correct
the format statements in various png_debug messages.
version 1.5.0beta14 [March 14, 2010]
Removed direct access to png_ptr->io_ptr from the Windows code in pngtest.c
Revised Makefile.am to account for recent additions and replacements.
Corrected CE and OS/2 DEF files (scripts/png*def) for symbols removed and
added ordinal numbers to the Windows DEF file and corrected the duplicated
ordinal numbers on CE symbols that are commented out.
Added back in export symbols that can be present in the Windows build but
are disabled by default.
PNG_EXPORT changed to include an 'ordinal' field for DEF file generation.
PNG_CALLBACK added to make callback definitions uniform. PNGAPI split
into PNGCAPI (base C form), PNGAPI (exports) and PNGCBAPI (callbacks),
and appropriate changes made to all files. Cygwin builds re-hinged to
allow procedure call standard changes and to remove the need for the DEF
file (fixes build on Cygwin).
Enabled 'attribute' warnings that are relevant to library APIs and callbacks.
Changed rules for generation of the various symbol files and added a new
rule for a DEF file (which is also added to the distribution).
Updated the symbol file generation to stop it adding spurious spaces
to EOL (coming from preprocessor macro expansion). Added a facility
to join tokens in the output and rewrite *.dfn to use this.
Eliminated scripts/*.def in favor of libpng.def; updated projects/visualc71
and removed scripts/makefile.cygwin.
Made PNG_BUILD_DLL safe: it can be set whenever a DLL is being built.
Removed the include of sys/types.h - apparently unnecessary now on the
platforms on which it happened (all but Mac OS and RISC OS).
Moved the Mac OS test into pngpriv.h (the only place it is used.)
version 1.5.0beta15 [March 17, 2010]
Added symbols.chk target to Makefile.am to validate the symbols in png.h
against the new DEF file scripts/symbols.def.
Changed the default DEF file back to pngwin.def.
Removed makefile.mingw.
Eliminated PNG_NO_EXTERN and PNG_ALL_EXTERN
