Rasterization sub-banding is utilized at large sizes while using
rather small fixed memory pool. Indeed it is possible to make an
educated guess how much memory is necessary at a given size for a
given glyph. It turns out that, for large majority of European glyphs,
you should store about 8 times more boundary pixels than their height.
Or, vice versa, if your memory pool can hold 800 pixels the band
height should be 100 and you should sub-band anything larger than
that. Should you still run out of memory, FreeType bisects the band
but you have wasted some time. This is what has been implemented in
FreeType since the beginning.
It was overlooked, however, that the top band could grow to twice the
default band size leading to unnecessary memory overflows there. This
commit fixes that. Now the bands are distributed more evenly and
cannot exceed the default size.
Now the magic number 8 is really suitable for rather simple European
scripts. For complex Chinese logograms the magic number should be 13
but that is subject for another day.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (gray_convert_glyph): Revise sub-banding
protocol.
Mac OS X linker throws errors when `-exported_symbol_list' input
file includes non-existing symbols. Reported by Ryan Schmidt.
* builds/exports.mk: Exclude ftmac.h from the headers for apinames
by default. Include it when ftmac.c would be compiled.
=========================
Tag sources with `VER-2-6-4'.
* docs/VERSION.TXT: Update documentation and bump version number to
2.6.4.

* include/freetype/freetype.h (FREETYPE_PATCH): Set to 4.
* builds/unix/configure.raw (version_info): Set to 18:4:12.
* CMakeLists.txt (VERSION_PATCH): Set to 4.
* docs/CHANGES: Updated.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (TArea): Restore original definition as `int'.
(gray_render_line) [FT_LONG64]: Updated.
(gray_convert_glyph): 32-bit band bisection stack should be 32 bands.
(gray_convert_glyph_inner): Trace successes and failures.
Doing so allows us to link them to edges – some fonts like
`NotoSansGurmukhi-Regular' have such isolated points sitting exactly
on other outlines.
* src/autofit/aflatin.c (af_latin_hints_compute_segments): Don't
ignore one-point contours but handle them specially as one-point
segments.
(af_latin_hints_compute_edges): Append one-point segments to edges
if possible.
This patch restores original `TCoord' definition as `int' so that the
rendering pool is used more efficiently on LP64 platforms (unix).
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (gray_TWorker, TCell, gray_TBand): Switch some
fields to `TCoord'.
(gray_find_cell, gray_render_scanline, gray_render_line, gray_hline,
gray_sweep, gray_convert_glyph): Updated.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (gray_convert_glyph): Do not use volatile
qualifier.
(gray_raster_render): Move span initializations from here.
(gray_sweep): ... to here and remove unused `target' argument.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (gray_init_cells): Remove function.
(gray_TWorker): Remove fields that become local variables.
(gray_raster_render): Move rendering buffer declaration from here.
(gray_convert_glyph): ... to here and update accordingly.
Removing the checks from `gray_hline' shaves 1% off rendering speed.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c [STANDALONE_]: Duplicate `FT_MIN' and `FT_MAX'.
(gray_TWorker): No need to store `clip_box'.
(gray_hline): Remove unnecessary boundary checks.
(gray_convert_glyph): Move boundary checks from here.
(gray_raster_render): ... to here and consolidate.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c [STANDALONE_]: Duplicate `FT_Outline_Get_CBox'.
(gray_compute_cbox): Remove this function.
(gray_convert_glyph): Update to use `FT_Outline_Get_CBox'.
* CMakeLists.txt: Each time cmake is run those files are
modified and the whole FreeType library is recompiled. With this
change we change the files only if there are real modifications, so
we can avoid recompilations.
This compiler doesn't recognize the end-of-comment sequence `*/' if
it immediately follows non-ASCII characters.
* src/autofit/afscript.h: Ensure whitespace before `*/'.
* src/truetype/ttinterp.c (Ins_SHPIX): Allow SHPIX to move points in
the twilight zone. Otherwise, treat SHPIX the same as DELTAP.
Unbreaks various fonts such as older versions of Rokkitt and DTL
Argo T Light that would glitch severly after calling ALIGNRP after a
blocked SHPIX.
Suggested by Alexei. `UL' is only needed for 16bit compilers, but
it seems noone is using this anymore (and we no longer test whether
FreeType compiles in such an environment). Otherwise, it is easy to
add the postfix to the `AF_UNICODE_RANGE' macro.
The convergence of Bézier flatteners is fast with the deviation
from straight line being assymptotically cut 4-fold on each bisection.
This justifies smaller bisection stack size.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (gray_TWorker): Remove common `bez_stack'.
(gray_render_conic): Create and use conic `bez_stack'. Move back the
band analysis from...
(gray_conic_to): ... here.
(gray_render_cubic): Create and use cubic `bez_stack'. Move back the
band analysis from...
(gray_cubic_to): ... here.
(gray_move_to): Updated.
* src/autofit/afblue.dat: Add blue zone data for Armenian.
* src/autofit/afblue.c, src/autofit/afblue.h: Regenerated.
* src/autofit/afscript.h: Add Armenian standard characters.
* src/autofit/afranges.c: Add Armenian data.
* src/autofit/afstyles.h: Add Armenian data.
