Building FreeType with external zlib 1.2.8 makes msvc 14 stop with
the following error.
ftgzip.c
zlib-1.2.8\zlib.h(86): error C2061:
syntax error: identifier 'z_const'
zlib-1.2.8\zlib.h(94): error C2054:
expected '(' to follow 'z_const'
zlib-1.2.8\zlib.h(94): error C2085:
'msg': not in formal parameter list
...
zlib-1.2.8\zlib.h(877): fatal error C1003:
error count exceeds 100; stopping compilation
The error happens because FreeType keeps an own copy of zlib-1.1.4
under `src/gzip'. When building `src/gzip/ftgzip.c' with
FT_CONFIG_OPTION_SYSTEM_ZLIB defined, it uses
#include <zlib.h>
which correctly finds an external `zlib.h', but `zlib.h' itself has
a line
#include "zconf.h"
which makes Visual Studio 2015 find `src/gzip/zconf.h' while
compiling the files in `src/gzip'.
* src/gzip/zconf.h: Rename to...
* src/gzip/ftzconf.h: ... this.
* src/gzip/zlib.h, src/gzip/rules.mk (GZIP_DRV_SRCS): Updated.
* src/bzip2/ftbzip2.c (ft_bzip2_file_fill_input), src/gzip/ftgzip.c
(ft_gzip_file_fill_input): In case of an error, adjust the limit to
avoid copying uninitialized memory.
* src/bzip2/ftbzip2.c (ft_bzip2_file_fill_output), src/gzip/ftgzip.c
(ft_gzip_file_fill_output): In case of an error, adjust the limit to
avoid copying uninitialized memory.
Suggested by Hin-Tak Leung.
* src/bzip2/ftbzip2.c (ft_bzip2_stream_io), src/gzip/ftgzip.c
(ft_gzip_stream_io), src/lzw/ftlzw.c (ft_lzw_stream_io): Do it.
* src/gzip/ftgzip.c (ft_gzip_stream_close): Avoid memory leak.
(ft_gzip_get_uncompressed_file): Correct byte order while reading
unsigned long value. Without this change, the whole optimization of
accessing small files in `FT_Stream_OpenGzip' is never executed! As
a consequence, access to PCF files in general (which are normally
small files) should be much improved now as originally intended.
Assure that FreeType's internal include directories are found before
`CPPFLAGS' (which might be set by the user in the environment), and
`CPPFLAGS' before `CFLAGS'.
* builds/freetype.mk (FT_CFLAGS): Don't add `INCLUDE_FLAGS'.
(FT_COMPILE): Make this a special variable for compiling only the
files handled in `freetype.mk'.
(.c.$O): Removed, unused.
* src/*/rules.mk (*_COMPILE): Fix order of include directories.
`API functions' are functions tagged with `FT_EXPORT_DEF'.
Besides trivial fixes, the following changes are included, too.
* src/base/ftbdf.c (FT_Get_BDF_Charset_ID, FT_Get_BDF_Property): Set
error code if no service is available.
* src/base/ftinit.c (FT_Done_FreeType): Change return value for
invalid `library' parameter to `Invalid_Library_Handle'.
* src/base/ftobjs.c (FT_New_Size): Change return value for invalid
`asize' parameter to `Invalid_Argument'.
* src/base/ftoutln.c (FT_Outline_Copy): Change return value for
invalid `source' and `target' parameters to `Invalid_Outline'.
(FT_Outline_Done_Internal): Change return value for invalid
`outline' parameter to `Invalid_Outline'.
This is modeled after zlib's `uncompress' function. We need this
for WOFF support.
* include/freetype/ftgzip.h, src/gzip/ftgzip.c (FT_Gzip_Uncompress):
New function.
* src/gzip/rules.mk: Rewrite to better reflect dependencies.
* include/freetype/internal/ftdebug.h: Remove pragmas.
* include/freetype/internal/ftserv.h: Use push and pop for pragmas.
* include/freetype/internal/ftvalid.h: Handle warning C4324.
* src/base/ftobjs.c: Use push and pop for pragmas.
* src/gzip/ftgzip.c: Handle warning C4244.
This is essentially a mechanical conversion, adding inclusion of
`FT_INTERNAL_DEBUG_H' where necessary, and providing the macros for
stand-alone compiling modes of the rasterizer modules.
To convert the remaining occurrences of FT_Err_XXX and friends it is
necessary to rewrite the code. Note, however, that it doesn't harm
if some cases are not handled since FT_THROW is a no-op.
Previously, signed integers were converted to unsigned integers, but
this can fail because of sign extension. For example, 0xa344a1eb
becomes 0xffffffffa344a1eb.
We now do the reverse which is always correct because the integer
size is the same during the cast from unsigned to signed.
* include/freetype/internal/ftstream.h, src/base/ftstream.c
(FT_Stream_Get*): Replace with...
(FT_Stream_GetU*): Functions which read unsigned integers.
Update all macros accordingly.
* src/gzip/ftgzip.c (ft_gzip_get_uncompressed_size): Updated.
src/autofit/afcjk.c, src/autofit/afhints.c, src/autofit/aflatin.c,
src/autofit/aftypes.h, src/base/ftcalc.c, src/base/ftoutln.c,
src/gzip/ftgzip.c, src/psaux/psconv.c, src/truetype/ttgload.c,
src/type1/t1gload.c:
this is a major patch used to drastically improve the performance
of loading glyphs. This both speeds up loading the glypn vector
themselves and the auto-fitter.
note that we've started using inline assembler with GCC to
implement FT_MulFix, given that this function is so damn
important for the engine's performance.
the resulting speed-up is about 25%.
the warp hinter isn't active (it shouldn't, still experimental)
* Jamfile, include/freetype/config/ftmodule.h: removed "gxvalid"
and "otvalid" from the list of modules that are linked statically
to a given FreeType library. Functionality has been moved to the
"ftvalid" CVS module.
note also that current Make-based build system still compiles the
modules though...
* include/freetype/config/ftoption.h: added FT_STRICT_ALIASING,
which controls the definitions of the memory management functions
to avoid warnings with recent versions of GCC. this macro is
only here to be disabled, in case we detect problems with the
new scheme.
NOTE: disable macro to use the memory debugger. this will be fixed
later !!
used to reduce the amount of heap size required to only test wether
we're dealing with a BDF font (the old code allocated 64 Kb right
before any test).
* src/lzw/ftlzw.c (FT_Stream_OpenLZW): modified the function to check
the LZW header before doing anything else. This helps avoid un-necessary
heap allocations (400 Kb of heap memory for the LZW decoder ! Oh my !)
* src/gzip/ftgzip.c (FT_Stream_OpenGZip): ditto for the .gz decoder,
though the code savings is smaller.
