We no longer have to take care of the 8.3 file name limit; this
allows us (a) to introduce longer, meaningful file names, and (b) to
avoid macro names in `#include' lines altogether since some
compilers (most notably Visual C++) doesn't support this properly.
*/*: Replace
#include FOO_H
with
#include <freetype/foo.h>
or something similar. Also update the documentation.
This monster commit was created by applying Nikhil's scripts
`docconverter.py' and `markify.py' to all C header and source files,
followed up by minor manual clean-up.
No change in functionality, of course.
I used commit f7419907bc6044b9b7057f9789866426c804ba82 from
https://github.com/nikramakrishnan/freetype-docs.git.
*/* [FT_CONFIG_OPTION_PIC]: Remove all code guarded by this
preprocessor symbol.

PIC mode or an array in non-PIC mode) with `xxx' arrays.

updating the type definitions for font font drivers
`__' (those which haven't converted yet). Fixed minor conversion
issues.
* src/winfonts/winfnt.c: Updated to new header inclusion scheme.
* */*.[ch]: Changed source files to adhere to the new
* src/cff/cff.c, src/cff/rules.mk: Updated.
* */*.[ch]: Now using <ft2build.h> as the default build and setup
C++ programs easier:
Renamed FT_WordXX to FT_UIntXX.
Changed a lot of void* to FT_Byte* if related to i/o streams -- FreeType
always accesses streams byte-wise, so this makes sense IMHO.
Added a lot of #ifdef __cplusplus to header files (and removed a few).
Other minor syntax fixes (mostly casts).
Replaced the variable `private' with `private_dict' -- `private' is
reserved in C++.
A lot of internal modifications have been performed lately on the
source in order to provide the following enhancements:
- more generic module support:
The FT_Module type is now defined to represent a handle to a given
module. The file <freetype/ftmodule.h> contains the FT_Module_Class
definition, as well as the module-loading public API
The FT_Driver type is still defined, and still represents a pointer
to a font driver. Note that FT_Add_Driver is replaced by FT_Add_Module,
FT_Get_Driver by FT_Get_Module, etc..
- support for generic glyph image types:
The FT_Renderer type is a pointer to a module used to perform various
operations on glyph image.
Each renderer is capable of handling images in a single format
(e.g. ft_glyph_format_outline). Its functions are used to:
- transform an glyph image
- render a glyph image into a bitmap
- return the control box (dimensions) of a given glyph image
The scan converters "ftraster.c" and "ftgrays.c" have been moved
to the new directory "src/renderer", and are used to provide two
default renderer modules.
One corresponds to the "standard" scan-converter, the other to the
"smooth" one.
The current renderer can be set through the new function
FT_Set_Renderer.
The old raster-related function FT_Set_Raster, FT_Get_Raster and
FT_Set_Raster_Mode have now disappeared, in favor of the new:
FT_Get_Renderer
FT_Set_Renderer
see the file <freetype/ftrender.h> for more details..
These changes were necessary to properly support different scalable
formats in the future, like bi-color glyphs, etc..
- glyph loader object:
A new internal object, called a 'glyph loader' has been introduced
in the base layer. It is used by all scalable format font drivers
to load glyphs and composites.
This object has been created to reduce the code size of each driver,
as each one of them basically re-implemented its functionality.
See <freetype/internal/ftobjs.h> and the FT_GlyphLoader type for
more information..
- FT_GlyphSlot had new fields:
In order to support extended features (see below), the FT_GlyphSlot
structure has a few new fields:
linearHoriAdvance: this field gives the linearly scaled (i.e.
scaled but unhinted) advance width for the glyph,
expressed as a 16.16 fixed pixel value. This
is useful to perform WYSIWYG text.
linearVertAdvance: this field gives the linearly scaled advance
height for the glyph (relevant in vertical glyph
layouts only). This is useful to perform
WYSIWYG text.
Note that the two above field replace the removed "metrics2" field
in the glyph slot.
advance: this field is a vector that gives the transformed
advance for the glyph. By default, it corresponds
to the advance width, unless FT_LOAD_VERTICAL_LAYOUT
was specified when calling FT_Load_Glyph or FT_Load_Char
bitmap_left: this field gives the distance in integer pixels from
the current pen position to the left-most pixel of
a glyph image WHEN IT IS A BITMAP. It is only valid
when the "format" field is set to
"ft_glyph_format_bitmap", for example, after calling
the new function FT_Render_Glyph.
bitmap_top: this field gives the distance in integer pixels from
the current pen position (located on the baseline) to
the top-most pixel of the glyph image WHEN IT IS A
BITMAP. Positive values correspond to upwards Y.
loader: this is a new private field for the glyph slot. Client
applications should not touch it..
- support for transforms and direct rendering in FT_Load_Glyph:
Most of the functionality found in <freetype/ftglyph.h> has been
moved to the core library. Hence, the following:
- a transform can be specified for a face through FT_Set_Transform.
this transform is applied by FT_Load_Glyph to scalable glyph images
(i.e. NOT TO BITMAPS) before the function returns, unless the
bit flag FT_LOAD_IGNORE_TRANSFORM was set in the load flags..
- once a glyph image has been loaded, it can be directly converted to
a bitmap by using the new FT_Render_Glyph function. Note that this
function takes the glyph image from the glyph slot, and converts
it to a bitmap whose properties are returned in "face.glyph.bitmap",
"face.glyph.bitmap_left" and "face.glyph.bitmap_top". The original
native image might be lost after the conversion.
- when using the new bit flag FT_LOAD_RENDER, the FT_Load_Glyph
and FT_Load_Char functions will call FT_Render_Glyph automatically
when needed.
EXPORT_FUNC, BASE_DEF and BASE_FUNC macros to
let them take an argument..
This is needed to compile the library as a DLL on some platforms
that have different compiler conventions..
- some #ifdefs were included in order to _not_
compile support for the bytecode interpreter
when FT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER
is not defined in "ttconfig.h"
- the glyph loader has been seriously re-designed. It is now
smaller, simpler and should load composites a bit faster
- works with the TrueType debugger
reflect the new modules/drivers list management performed through the
file `freetype2/config/modules.mk'
Changed the driver header files to reflect the new modules/drivers
list management. We get rid, at last, of the infamous pre-processor
tricks used to build the list at compile time.
`src/base/ftinit.c' is also modified to reflect the changes..
