handling. Internal changes only except for a new option to avoid compiling
in the png_build_grayscale_palette API (which is not used at all internally.)
The main change is to move the transform tests (READ_TRANSFORMS,
WRITE_TRANSFORMS) up one level to the caller of the APIs.
Certain optional gcc warning flags resulted in warnings in libpng code.
With these changes only -Wconversion and -Wcast-qual cannot be turned on.
Changes are trivial rearrangements of code. -Wconversion is not possible
for pngrutil.c (because of the widespread use of += et al on variables
smaller than (int) or (unsigned int)) and -Wcast-qual is not possible
with pngwio.c and pngwutil.c because the 'write' callback and zlib
compression both fail to declare their input buffers with 'const'.
Moved reading of file signature into png_read_sig (Cosmin)
Fixed atomicity of chunk header serialization (Cosmin)
Added test for io_state in pngtest.c (Cosmin)
Added "#!/bin/sh" at the top of contrib/pngminim/*/gather.sh scripts.
The changes include support for function attributes in VC in addition to
those already present in GCC - necessary because without these some
warnings are unavoidable. Fixes include signed/unsigned fixes in
pngvalid and checks with gcc -Wall -Wextra -Wunused.
VC requires function attributes on function definitions as well as
declarations, PNG_FUNCTION has been added to enable this and the
relevant function definitions changed.
Fixed point APIs are now supported throughout (no missing APIs).
Internal fixed point arithmetic support exists for all internal floating
point operations.
sCAL validates the floating point strings it is passed.
Safe, albeit rudimentary, Watcom support is provided by PNG_API_RULE==2
Two new APIs exist to get the number of passes without turning on the
PNG_INTERLACE transform and to get the number of rows in the current
pass.
A new test program, pngvalid.c, validates the gamma code.
Errors in the 16 bit gamma correction (overflows) have been corrected.
cHRM chunk testing is done consistently (previously the floating point
API bypassed it, because the test really didn't work on FP, now the test
is performed on the actual values to be stored in the PNG file so it
works in the FP case too.)
Most floating point APIs now simply call the fixed point APIs after
converting the values to the fixed point form used in the PNG file.
The standard headers no longer include zlib.h, which is currently only
required for pngstruct.h and can therefore be internal.
