FreeType used to rely on a 24-step iteration CORDIC algorithm to
calculate trigonometric functions and rotate vectors. It turns out
that once the vector is in the right half-plane, the initial rotation
by 63 degrees is not necessary. The algorithm is perfectly capable
to converge to any angle starting from the second 45 degree rotation.
This patch removes the first rotation and makes it a 23-step CORDIC
algorithm.
* src/base/fttrigon.c (FT_TRIG_SCALE, FT_TRIG_COSCALE): Update macro
values.
(ft_trig_pseudo_rotate, ft_trig_pseudo_polarize): Remove initial
rotation.
Since the initial commit (ebe85f59) the value of FT_TRIG_SCALE has
always been slightly less than the correct value, which has been
given in the comment as a hexadecimal. As a result, vector lengths
were underestimated and rotated vectors were shortened.
invalid computations, resulting in very weird bugs in TrueType
bytecode hinted fonts
* src/truetype/ttinterp.c: redefined FT_UNUSED_EXEC to not perform
a structure copy each time. Wooot. !
- fixing apinames.c, adding support for Watcom and Borland compilers
- adding generation of exported symbols list to the build system, including the Unix one !!
sorry Werner, I have no time to document this in ChangeLog at the moment
* src/autofit/*: Add copyright messages.
Formatting.
* src/autofit/afhints.c (af_glyph_hints_done): Don't use
`AF_Dimension' but `int' for loop counter.
* src/autofit/aflatin.c (af_latin_metrics_init_widths): Don't use
`AF_Dimension' but `int' for loop counter.
Use proper enumeration value for `render_mode'.
(af_latin_metrics_scale_dim): Don't shadow variables.
(af_latin_hints_compute_segments): Use proper cast for `major_dir'
and `segment_dir'.
(af_latin_align_linked_edge, af_latin_hint_edges): Fix arguments of call to
`af_latin_compute_stem_width'.
(af_latin_hints_apply): Don't use `AF_Dimension' but `int' for loop
counter.
* src/base/ftdbgmem.c (ft_mem_table_get_source, FT_DumpMemory): Use
proper cast for memory allocation.
* src/cff/cffdrivr.c (cff_get_kerning): Use proper cast for
initialization of `sfnt'.
* src/sfnt/sfdriver.c: Include `ttkern.h'.
* src/sfnt/ttkern.c (tt_face_get_kerning): Don't shadow variables.
* src/truetype/ttgload.c: Include `ttpload.h'.
* src/truetype/ttpload.c (tt_face_load_loca) [FT_OPTIMIZE_MEMORY]:
Remove redundant variable.
FT_INTERNAL_OBJECTS_H.
* src/base/ftstroke.c (FT_Outline_GetInsideBorder,
FT_Outline_GetOutsideBorder): s/or/o/ to make it compile with
C++ compilers.
* src/cache/ftcmru.c, include/freetype/cache/ftcmru.h:
s/select/selection/ to avoid compiler warning.
* src/cff/cffload.h: s/select/ftselect/ to avoid potential
compiler warning.
Formatting.
the API is likely to change however.
* src/base/fttrigon.c (FT_Angle_Diff): fixing function, it returned
invalid values for large negative angle differences (resulting in
incorrect stroker computations, among other things)
* src/cache/ftccache.c (ftc_node_unlink): removing incorrect
assertion, and changing code to avoid hash table size contraction
* src/base/Jamfile, src/base/rules.mk, src/base/descrip.mms:
adding "ftstroker.obj" to default build, as optional component
src/base/Jamfile, src/base/rules.mk: adding trigonometric functions
to the core API (using Cordic algorithms).
* builds/top_level.mk, builds/newline, builds/detect.mk: fixed problems
with Make on Windows 2000, as well as problems when "make distclean" is
invoked on a non-Unix platform when there is no "config.mk" in the
current directory..
* builds/freetype.mk: fixed a problem with object deletions under
Dos/Windows/OS/2 systems
* src/tools: added new directory to hold tools and test programs
moved docmaker.py, glnames.py to it..
* src/tools/docmaker.py: improved the script to add the current date
at the footer of each web page (useful to distinguish between versions)
* Jamfile: fixed incorrect HDRMACRO argument.
* TODO: removed the cubic arc bbox computation note, since it has been
fixed recently..
* include/freetype/t1tables.h, include/freetype/config/ftoption.h:
