| Changes since the last public release (1.6.26): |
| |
| Version 1.6.27beta01 [November 2, 2016] |
| Restrict the new ADLER32-skipping to IDAT chunks. It broke iCCP chunk |
| handling: an erroneous iCCP chunk would throw a png_error and reject the |
| entire PNG image instead of rejecting just the iCCP chunk with a warning, |
| if built with zlib-1.2.8.1. |
| |
| Version 1.6.27rc01 [December 27, 2016] |
| Control ADLER32 checking with new PNG_IGNORE_ADLER32 option. |
| Removed the use of a macro containing the pre-processor 'defined' |
| operator. It is unclear whether this is valid; a macro that |
| "generates" 'defined' is not permitted, but the use of the word |
| "generates" within the C90 standard seems to imply more than simple |
| substitution of an expression itself containing a well-formed defined |
| operation. |
