|
||
|
markers as per bug

<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=581"
|
||
|
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=581</a>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/{tif_open.c, tiffio.h}: New function added:
|
||
|
TIFFIsBigEndian(). Function returns nonzero if given was file written
|
||
|
in big-endian order.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_print.c: added (untested) support for printing
|
||
|
SSHORT, SLONG and SRATIONAL fields.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_fax3.c: Avoid reading CCITT compression options
|
||
|
if compression type mismatches. See
|
||
|
<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=565">
|
||
|
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=565</a>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_strip.c: Never return 0 from the TIFFNumberOfStrips().
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_dirread.c: Workaround for broken TIFF writers which
|
||
|
store single SampleFormat value for multisampled images. See
|
||
|
<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=562">
|
||
|
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=562</a>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_write.c: Allow in-place updating of the compressed
|
||
|
images (don't work properly with all codecs). For details see GDAL bug
|
||
|
<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=534">
|
||
|
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=534</a>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_jpeg.c: Workaround for wrong sampling factors used
|
||
|
in the Intergarph JPEG compressed TIFF images as per bug:
|
||
|
<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=532">
|
||
|
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=532</a>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_open.c: Use dummy mmap/munmap functions in
|
||
|
TIFFClientOpen() when the appropriate client functions was not
|
||
|
supplied by user.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_dirread.c: Fixed problem with handling TIFF_UNDEFINED
|
||
|
tag type in TIFFFetchNormalTag() as per bug
|
||
|
<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=508"
|
||
|
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=508</a>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_codec.c: Fixed typo in TIFFInitPackBits name as per:
|
||
|
<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=494">
|
||
|
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=494</a>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_fax3.c: Fixed problem, introdiced in 3.6.1 release,
|
||
|
with the CCITT encoding modes as per bug
|
||
|
<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483">
|
||
|
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483</a>.
|
||
|
We need more work on fax codec to support update mode.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tiff.h: Fixed tag definitions for TIFFTAG_YCLIPPATHUNITS
|
||
|
and TIFFTAG_INDEXED as per bug
|
||
|
<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=475">
|
||
|
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=475</a>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/{tif_win32.c, tif_unix.c}: Check whether the pointer is
|
||
|
NULL before proceeding further as per bug
|
||
|
<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=474">
|
||
|
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=474</a>.
|
||
|
Check results, returned by the TIFFFdOpen() before returning and close
|
||
|
file if TIFFFdOpen() failed as per bug
|
||
|
<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=468">
|
||
|
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=468</a>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/{libtiff.def, tif_close.c, tiffio.h, tif_open.c}:
|
||
|
Separate TIFFCleanup() from the TIFFClose() in order to fix the bug
|
||
|
<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=468">
|
||
|
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=468</a>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_dirwrite.c: Fixed handling of writable ASCII tags
|
||
|
that are field_passcount=TRUE properly. Arguably anonymous custom
|
||
|
tags should be declared as passcount=FALSE, but I don't want to change
|
||
|
that without a careful review.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_write.c: Fixed reporting size of the buffer in case
|
||
|
of stripped image in TIFFWriteBufferSetup(). As per bug

<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=460">
|
||
|
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=460</a>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_dir.c: Incomplete cleanup in TIFFFreeDirectory(),
|
||
|
patch from Gerben Koopmans.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_dirread.c: Check field_passcount value before setting
|
||
|
the value of undefined type, patch from Gerben Koopmans.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/{tiff.h, tif_fax3.c}:Fixes for AMD 64 platform as
|
||
|
suggested by Jeremy C. Reed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<li> libtiff/tif_win32.c: Fixed problem with _TIFFrealloc() when
|
||
|
the NULL pointer passed. Patch supplied by Larry Grill.
