This is needed to work around a build failure when this test fails, as
it spuriously does when cross-compiling for MinGW using v10 API package,
see https://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/bugs/935/ for more details.
Of course, the fact that the build fails if snprintf() is unavailable is
actually a bug, but in practice this function is available everywhere by
now, so simply stop testing for it.
This mostly cherry picks ceff22ee (Use C99 snprintf, 2021-01-31), but
keeps the test for MSVC versions without vsnprintf() for compatibility.
So we can have 2 kind of builds with the Zip/Deflate codec:
- zlib only
- zlib + libdeflate
Speed improvements in the 35%-50% range can be expected when libdeflate is used.
Compression level up to 12 is now supported (capped to 9 when zlib is used).
Still requires zlib for situations where libdeflate cannot be used (that
is for scanline access, since libdeflate has no streaming mode)
Pseudo-tag TIFFTAG_DEFLATE_SUBCODEC=DEFLATE_SUBCODEC_ZLIB/DEFLATE_SUBCODEC_LIBDEFLATE
is added to control which subcodec (zlib or libdeflate) should be used (it defaults
of course to libdeflate, when it is available).
This is mostly aimed at being used on the writing side, to be able to reproduce
output of previous libtiff versions at a binary level, in situations where this would
be really needed. Or as a safety belt in case there would be unforeseen issues
with using libdeflate.
It can be used to know when libdeflate is available at runtime (DEFLATE_SUBCODEC_LIBDEFLATE
will be the default value in that situation).
Of course, deflate codestreams produced by libdeflate can be read by zlib, and vice-versa.
mingw-w64 will provide libm symbols by default without -lm and mingw-64's
libm is just a stub.
This is just to make sure that on systems with msys2 and also cygwin, cmake
doesn't find a libm that actually contains math functions.
... and add per-strile offset/bytecount loading capabilities.
Part of this commit makes the behaviour that was previously met when
libtiff was compiled with -DDEFER_STRILE_LOAD available for default builds
when specifying the new 'D' (Deferred) TIFFOpen() flag. In that mode, the [Tile/Strip][ByteCounts/Offsets]
arrays are only loaded when first accessed. This can speed-up the opening
of files stored on the network when just metadata retrieval is needed.
This mode has been used for years by the GDAL library when compiled with
its embeded libtiff copy.
To avoid potential out-of-tree code (typically codecs) that would use
the td_stripbytecount and td_stripoffset array inconditionnaly assuming they
have been loaded, those have been suffixed with _p (for protected). The
use of the new functions mentionned below is then recommended.
Another addition of this commit is the capability of loading only the
values of the offset/bytecount of the strile of interest instead of the
whole array. This is enabled with the new 'O' (Ondemand) flag of TIFFOpen()
(which implies 'D'). That behaviour has also been used by GDAL, which hacked
into the td_stripoffset/td_stripbytecount arrays directly. The new code
added in the _TIFFFetchStrileValue() and _TIFFPartialReadStripArray() internal
functions is mostly a port of what was in GDAL GTiff driver previously.
Related to that, the public TIFFGetStrileOffset[WithErr]() and TIFFGetStrileByteCount[WithErr]()
functions have been added to API. They are of particular interest when
using sparse files (with offset == bytecount == 0) and you want to detect
if a strile is present or not without decompressing the data, or updating
an existing sparse file.
They will also be used to enable a future enhancement where client code can entirely
skip bytecount loading in some situtations
A new test/defer_strile_loading.c test has been added to test the above
capabilities.
From https://github.com/facebook/zstd
"Zstandard, or zstd as short version, is a fast lossless compression
algorithm, targeting real-time compression scenarios at zlib-level
and better compression ratios. It's backed by a very fast entropy stage,
provided by Huff0 and FSE library."
We require libzstd >= 1.0.0 so as to be able to use streaming compression
and decompression methods.
The default compression level we have selected is 9 (range goes from 1 to 22),
which experimentally offers equivalent or better compression ratio than
the default deflate/ZIP level of 6, and much faster compression.
For example on a 6600x4400 16bit image, tiffcp -c zip runs in 10.7 seconds,
while tiffcp -c zstd runs in 5.3 seconds. Decompression time for zip is
840 ms, and for zstd 650 ms. File size is 42735936 for zip, and
42586822 for zstd. Similar findings on other images.
On a 25894x16701 16bit image,

ZSTD 35 s 3.2 s 399 700 498

This patch adds support for the Travis-CI service.
* .appveyor.yml: new file from
0002-ci-Add-AppVeyor-support.patch by Roger Leigh (sent to mailing
list on 2017-06-08)
This patch adds a .appveyor.yml file to the top-level. This allows
one to opt in to having a branch built on Windows with Cygwin,
MinGW and MSVC automatically when a branch is pushed to GitHub,
GitLab, BitBucket or any other supported git hosting service.

patch 0001-cmake-Improve-Cygwin-and-MingGW-test-support.patch from Roger
Leigh (sent to mailing list on 2017-06-08)
This patch makes the CMake build system support running the tests
with MinGW or Cygwin.
Roger Leigh (via tiff mailing list on 2015-09-01).
CMake build is now included in 'distcheck' target.
Builds with CMake 2.8.9 and newer.
Tar is now resquested to use POSIX PAX format.

CMake reads all version information directly from configure.ac to
avoid duplication of values. This basically greps over the file
for the LIBTIFF_* variables, then translates them to the form
needed for cmake. This includes the release version and libtool
shared library version information.
Make shared/static library building configurable. Currently it
always builds shared libraries, with static libs having a _static
suffix (copying zlib, but it means it's got a non-standard name).
CMake has a -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON|OFF option to select one or the
other, which is now used instead. There's now a single "tiff"
target to build either shared or static as required, and all the
tests and tools are linked with this. Note: the Windows tests fail
when linked with a static libtiff (says: libtiff.dll not found).
Not really a regression since this was not tested up to this
point, and it's likely the unit tests haven't (ever?) been run on
Windows with a static libtiff, so there's some additional
portability issue here to address. Works fine on UNIX systems,
and fine on Windows with the default to build a DLL.
Add a missing file which wasn't being distributed, causing unit
tests to fail. Note that "find . -name '*.cmake'" lists all the
CMake files which need distributing in addition to all the
CMakeLists.txt files (which now are distributed).

MSVC with 'nmake'.
