Changes since the last public release (1.5.6):
|
|
|
|
Version 1.5.7beta01 [November 4, 2011]
|
|
Added support for ARM processor (Mans Rullgard)
|
|
Fixed bug in pngvalid on early allocation failure; fixed type cast in
|
|
pngmem.c; pngvalid would attempt to call png_error() if the allocation
|
|
of a png_struct or png_info failed. This would probably have led to a
|
|
crash. The pngmem.c implementation of png_malloc() included a cast
|
|
to png_size_t which would fail on large allocations on 16-bit systems.
|
|
Fix for the preprocessor of the Intel C compiler. The preprocessor
|
|
splits adjacent @ signs with a space; this changes the concatentation
|
|
token from @-@-@ to PNG_JOIN; that should work with all compiler
|
|
preprocessors.
|
|
Paeth filter speed improvements from work by Siarhei Siamashka. This
|
|
changes the 'Paeth' reconstruction function to improve the GCC code
|
|
generation on x86. The changes are only part of the suggested ones;
|
|
just the changes that definitely improve speed and remain simple.
|
|
The changes also slightly increase the clarity of the code.
|
|
|
|
Version 1.5.7beta02 [November 11, 2011]
|
|
Check compression_type parameter in png_get_iCCP and remove spurious
|
|
casts. The compression_type parameter is always assigned to, so must
|
|
be non-NULL. The cast of the profile length potentially truncated the
|
|
value unnecessarily on a 16-bit int system, so the cast of the (byte)
|
|
compression type to (int) is specified by ANSI-C anyway.
|
|
Fixed FP division by zero in pngvalid.c; the 'test_pixel' code left
|
|
the sBIT fields in the test pixel as 0, which resulted in a floating
|
|
point division by zero which was irrelevant but causes systems where
|
|
FP exceptions cause a crash. Added code to pngvalid to turn on FP
|
|
exceptions if the appropriate glibc support is there to ensure this is
|
|
tested in the future.
|
|
Updated scripts/pnglibconf.mak and scripts/makefile.std to handle the
|
|
new PNG_JOIN macro.
|
|
Added versioning to pnglibconf.h comments.
|
|
Simplified read/write API initial version; basic read/write tested on
|
|
a variety of images, limited documentation (in the header file.)
|
|
Installed more accurate linear to sRGB conversion tables. The slightly
|
|
modified tables reduce the number of 16-bit values that
|
|
convert to an off-by-one 8-bit value. The "makesRGB.c" code that was used
|
|
to generate the tables is now in a contrib/sRGBtables sub-directory.
|
|
|
|
Version 1.5.7beta03 [November 16, 2011]
|
|
Removed PNG_CONST from the sRGB table declarations in pngpriv.h and png.c
|
|
Added run-time detection of NEON support.
|
|
Added contrib/libtests; includes simplified API test and timing test and
|
|
a color conversion utility for rapid checking of failed 'pngstest' results.
|
|
Multiple transform bug fixes plus a work-round for double gamma correction.
|
|
libpng does not support more than one transform that requires linear data
|
|
at once - if this is tried typically the results is double gamma
|
|
correction. Since the simplified APIs can need rgb to gray combined with
|
|
a compose operation it is necessary to do one of these outside the main
|
|
libpng transform code. This check-in also contains fixes to various bugs
|
|
in the simplified APIs themselves and to some bugs in compose and rgb to
|
|
gray (on palette) itself.
