<FONT SIZE=+3>C</FONT>HANGES IN THE SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION:
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
support was added for building the library as a DSO under HP-UX with
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
the native C compiler
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
tools are now built with explicit pathnames for the DSO under IRIX,
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
Solaris, and Linux
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
DSO configuration support for Linux was changed to require that
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
libc.so only be readable (not executable)

<FONT SIZE=+3>C</FONT>HANGES IN LIBTIFF:
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
support was add for ICC: <TT>NumberOfInks</TT>, and <TT>ICCProfile</TT>
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
a memory leak caused by doing <TT>TIFFSetDirectory(0)</TT> was fixed
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
a bug was fixed whereby certain multi-directory files were not
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
properly handled when accessed by mapping the data into memory
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
the strip chopping support is now always compiled
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
into the library with the default usage controlled by a
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
<TT>STRIPCHOP_DEFAULT</TT> configuration parameter
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
the strip chopping support no longer chops tiled images
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
all static strings are now const--for shared libraries
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
the logic for estimating the strip size of images without
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
a <TT>StripByteCounts</TT> tag was improved by handling
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
<TT>PlanarContig</TT> images differently from <TT>PlanarSeparate</TT>
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
a bug was fixed in the G3 codec when converting the Y resolution
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
of data specified in metric units
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
a bug was fixed in the G3/G4 decoder for data where lines terminate
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
with a v0 code
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
the <TT>TIFFRGBAImage</TT> support was changed to scale 16-bit colormap
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
entries more conservatively to avoid problems with applications
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
that do not generate fully saturated pixel values
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
the LZW decoder was changed to use a more conservative scheme when
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
bounds checking the hash table array; this avoids pitfalls with
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
systems that load objects into memory in unusual locations
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
a bug was fixed in <TT>TIFFPrintDirectory</TT>'s handling of the
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
<TT>InkNames</TT> tag
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
<TT>TIFFPrintDirectory</TT> now understands <TT>NumberOfInks</TT>
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
and ICC-related tags
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
the routines for reading image data now provide more useful information
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
when a read error is encountered
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
support was added for compiling with Microsoft Visual C++ 4.0
|

|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
a bug was fixed in pal2rgb's colormap handling
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
tiff2ps now includes John Wehle's changes for maintaining
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
the aspect ratio
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
of images when scaling and for honoring the deadzone on a page when
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
generating PostScript Level II
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
tiff2ps does a better job guarding against the mishandling
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
of greyscale images
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
tiff2ps now correctly converts X- and Y-resolution values
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
specified in metric units
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
tiffdump has a new <TT>-m</TT> option to control the maximum
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
number of indirect
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
data values printed for a tag (by default 24)
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
tiffdump understands several new tags
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
tiffdump now shows any terminating null in ASCII strings
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
tiffinfo now suppresses strip chopping when interpreting an image;
|
|
Packit Service |
db44fb |
a new <TT>-z</TT> option has been added to enable strip chopping
