Libpng 1.0.5q - February 5, 2000
This is not intended to be a public release. It will be replaced
within a few weeks by a public version or by another test version.
Changes since the last public release (1.0.5):
version libpng-1.0.5a October 23, 1999
Added contrib/pngsuite and contrib/pngminus (Willem van Schaik)
Fixed a typo in the png_set_sRGB() function call in example.c (Jan Nijtmans)
Further optimization and bugfix of pngvcrd.c
Revised pngset.c so that it does not allocate or free memory in the user's
text_ptr structure. Instead, it makes its own copy.
Created separate write_end_info_struct in pngtest.c for a more severe test.
Added code in pngwrite.c to free info_ptr->text[i].key to stop a memory leak.
version libpng-1.0.5b November 23, 1999
Moved PNG_FLAG_HAVE_CHUNK_HEADER, PNG_FLAG_BACKGROUND_IS_GRAY and
PNG_FLAG_WROTE_tIME from flags to mode.
Added png_write_info_before_PLTE() function.
Fixed some typecasting in contrib/gregbook/*.c
Updated scripts/makevms.com and added makevms.com to contrib/gregbook
and contrib/pngminus (Martin Zinser)
version libpng-1.0.5c November 26, 1999
Moved png_get_header_version from png.h to png.c, to accomodate ansi2knr.
Removed all global arrays (according to PNG_NO_GLOBAL_ARRAYS macro), to
accomodate making DLL's: Moved usr_png_ver from global variable to function
png_get_header_ver() in png.c. Moved png_sig to png_sig_bytes in png.c and
eliminated use of png_sig in pngwutil.c. Moved the various png_CHNK arrays
into pngtypes.h. Eliminated use of global png_pass arrays. Declared the
png_CHNK and png_pass arrays to be "const". Made the global arrays
available to applications (although none are used in libpng itself) when
PNG_NO_GLOBAL_ARRAYS is not defined or when PNG_GLOBAL_ARRAYS is defined.
Removed some extraneous "-I" from contrib/pngminus/makefile.std
Changed the PNG_sRGB_INTENT macros in png.h to be consistent with PNG-1.2.
Change PNG_SRGB_INTENT to PNG_sRGB_INTENT in libpng.txt and libpng.3
version libpng-1.0.5d November 29, 1999
Add type cast (png_const_charp) two places in png.c
Eliminated pngtypes.h; use macros instead to declare PNG_CHNK arrays.
Renamed "PNG_GLOBAL_ARRAYS" to "PNG_USE_GLOBAL_ARRAYS" and made available
to applications a macro "PNG_USE_LOCAL_ARRAYS".
#ifdef out all the new declarations when PNG_USE_GLOBAL_ARRAYS is defined.
Added PNG_EXPORT_VAR macro to accommodate making DLL's.
version libpng-1.0.5e November 30, 1999
Added iCCP, iTXt, and sPLT support; added "lang" member to the png_text
structure; refactored the inflate/deflate support to make adding new chunks
with trailing compressed parts easier in the future, and added new functions
png_free_iCCP, png_free_pCAL, png_free_sPLT, png_free_text, png_get_iCCP,
png_get_spalettes, png_set_iCCP, png_set_spalettes (Eric S. Raymond).
NOTE: Applications that write text chunks MUST define png_text->lang. Before
calling png_set_text(). It must be set to NULL if you want to write tEXt or
zTXt chunks. If you want your application to be able to run with older
versions of libpng, use
#ifdef PNG_iTXt_SUPPORTED
png_text[i].lang = NULL;
#endif
Changed png_get_oFFs() and png_set_oFFs() to use signed rather than unsigned
offsets (Eric S. Raymond).
Combined PNG_READ_cHNK_SUPPORTED and PNG_WRITE_cHNK_SUPPORTED macros into
PNG_cHNK_SUPPORTED and combined the three types of PNG_text_SUPPORTED
macros, leaving the separate macros also available.
Removed comments on #endifs at the end of many short, non-nested #if-blocks.
version libpng-1.0.5f December 6, 1999
Changed makefile.solaris to issue a warning about potential problems when
the ucb "ld" is in the path ahead of the ccs "ld".
Removed "- [date]" from the "synopsis" line in libpng.3 and libpngpf.3.
Added sCAL chunk support (Eric S. Raymond).
version libpng-1.0.5g December 7, 1999
Fixed "png_free_spallettes" typo in png.h
Added code to handle new chunks in pngpread.c
Moved PNG_CHNK string macro definitions outside of PNG_NO_EXTERN block
Added "translated_key" to png_text structure and png_write_iTXt().
Added code in pngwrite.c to work around a newly discovered zlib bug.
version libpng-1.0.5h December 10, 1999
NOTE: regarding the note for version 1.0.5e, the following must also
be included in your code:
png_text[i].translated_key = NULL;
Unknown chunk handling is now supported.
Option to eliminate all floating point support was added. Some new
fixed-point functions such as png_set_gAMA_fixed() were added.
version libpng-1.0.5i December 13, 1999
Added some type casts to silence compiler warnings.
Renamed "png_free_spalette" to "png_free_spalettes" for consistency.
Removed leading blanks from a #define in pngvcrd.c
Added some parameters to the new png_set_keep_unknown_chunks() function,
and relocated it in pngset.c
Added a test for up->location != 0 in the first instance of writing
unknown chunks in pngwrite.c
Changed "num" to "i" in png_free_spalettes() and png_free_unknowns() to
prevent recursion.
Added png_free_hIST() function.
Various patches to fix bugs in the sCAL and integer cHRM processing,
and to add some convenience macros for use with sCAL.
version libpng-1.0.5j December 21, 1999
Changed "unit" parameter of png_write_sCAL from png_byte to int, to work
around buggy compilers.
Added new type "png_fixed_point" for integers that hold float*100000 values
Restored backward compatibility of tEXt/zTXt chunk processing:
Added members "lang_key" and "itxt_length" to png_text struct. Set
text_length=0 when "text" contains iTXt data. Use the "compression"
member to distinguish among tEXt/zTXt/iTXt types. Restored the first
four members of png_text to the same order as v.1.0.5d. The "Note" above,
about backward incompatibility of libpng-1.0.5e, no longer applies.
Added PNG_ITXT_COMPRESSION_NONE (1) and PNG_ITXT_COMPRESSION_zTXt(2) macros.
Fixed png_read|write_iTXt() to read|write parameters in the right order.
and to write the iTXt chunk after IDAT if it appears in the end_ptr.
Added pnggccrd.c, version of pngvcrd.c Intel assembler for gcc (Greg Roelofs)
Reversed the order of trying to write floating-point and fixed-point gAMA.
version libpng-1.0.5k December 27, 1999
Added many parentheses, e.g., "if (a && b & c)" becomes "if (a && (b & c))"
Added png_handle_as_unknown()
Added png_free_chunk_list() function and chunk_list and num_chunk_list members
of png_ptr.
Eliminated erroneous warnings about multiple sPLT chunks and sPLT-after-PLTE.
Fixed a libpng-1.0.5h bug in pngrutil.c that was issuing erroneous warnings
about ignoring incorrect gAMA with sRGB (gAMA was in fact not ignored)
Added png_free_tRNS(); png_set_tRNS() now malloc's its own trans array (ESR).
Define png_get_int_32 when oFFs chunk is supported as well as when pCAL is.
Changed type of proflen from png_int_32 to png_uint_32 in png_get_iCCP().
version libpng-1.0.5l January 1, 2000
Added functions png_set_read_user_chunk_fn() and png_get_user_chunk_ptr()
for setting a callback function to handle unknown chunks and for
retrieving the associated user pointer (Glenn).
version 1.0.5m [January 7, 2000]
Added high-level functions png_read_png(), png_write_png(), png_free_pixels().
version 1.0.5n [January 9, 2000]
Added png_free_PLTE() function, and modified png_set_PLTE() to malloc its
own memory for info_ptr->palette. This makes it safe for the calling
application to free its copy of the palette any time after it calls
png_set_PLTE().
version 1.0.5o [January 20, 2000]
Cosmetic changes only (removed some trailing blanks and TABs)
version 1.0.5p [January 31, 2000]
Renamed pngdll.mak to makefile.bd32
Cosmetic changes in pngtest.c
version 1.0.5q [February 5, 2000]
Relocated the makefile.solaris warning about PATH problems.
Fixed pngvcrd.c bug by pushing/popping registers in mmxsupport (Bruce Oberg)
Revised makefile.gcmmx
