Libpng 1.5.7 - December 15, 2011
|
|
|
|
This is a public release of libpng, intended for use in production codes.

Files available for download:
|
|
|
|
Source files with LF line endings (for Unix/Linux) and with a
|
|
"configure" script
|
|
|

|
|
libpng-1.5.7.tar.gz
|
|
libpng-1.5.7.tar.bz2
|
|
|
|
Source files with CRLF line endings (for Windows), without the
|
|
"configure" script

|
Changes since the last public release (1.5.6):
|
|
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.
|
|
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.
|
|
Added versioning to pnglibconf.h comments.
|
|
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.
|
|
Added run-time detection of NEON support.
|
|
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 compose and rgb to gray (on palette).
|
|
Fixes for C++ compilation using g++ When libpng source is compiled
|
|
using g++. The compiler imposes C++ rules on the C source; thus it
|
|
is desireable to make the source work with either C or C++ rules
|
|
without throwing away useful error information. This change adds
|
|
png_voidcast to allow C semantic (void*) cases or the corresponding
|
|
C++ static_cast operation, as appropriate.
|
|
Added --noexecstack to assembler file compilation. GCC does not set
|
|
this on assembler compilation, even though it does on C compilation.
|
|
This creates security issues if assembler code is enabled; the
|
|
work-around is to set it by default in the flags for $(CCAS)
|
|
Removed "zTXt" from warning in generic chunk decompression function.
|
|
Validate time settings passed to pngset() and png_convert_to_rfc1123()
|
|
(Frank Busse).
|
|
Added MINGW support to CMakeLists.txt
|
|
Reject invalid compression flag or method when reading the iTXt chunk.
|
|
Moved pngvalid.c into contrib/libtests
|
|
Rebuilt Makefile.in, configure, etc., with autoconf-2.68
|
|
Replaced an "#if" with "#ifdef" in pngrtran.c
|
|
Revised #if PNG_DO_BC block in png.c (use #ifdef and add #else)
|
|
Revised pngconf.h to use " __declspec(restrict)" only when MSC_VER >= 1400,
|
|
as in libpng-1.5.4.
|
|
Put CRLF line endings in the owatcom project files.
|
|
Updated CMakeLists.txt to account for the relocation of pngvalid.c
|
|
Minor fixes to pngvalid.c for gcc 4.6.2 compatibility to remove warnings
|
|
reported by earlier versions.
