after the tables' tags; `hdmx' is TrueType-specific and thus the code
is moved to the truetype module; `get_metrics' is moved here from the
truetype module so that the code can be shared with the cff module.
This pass involves no real changes. That is, the code is moved
verbatim mostly. The only exception is the return value of
`tt_face_get_metrics'.

Added support for an embedded 'BDF ' table within SFNT-based
bitmap font files. This is used to store atoms & properties from
the original BDF fonts that were used to generate the font file.
the feature is controled by TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BDF within 'ftoption.h'
and is used to implement FT_Get_BDF_Property for these font files.
At the moment, this is still experimental, the BDF table format isn't
cast into stone yet.
(CFLAGS), builds/compiler/gcc.mk (CFLAGS): Remove
-fno-strict-aliasing.
Say you have `(Foo*)x' and want to assign, pass, or return it as
`(Bar*)'. If you simply say `x' or `(Bar*)x', then the C compiler
would warn you that type casting incompatible pointer types breaks
strict-aliasing. The solution is to cast to `(void*)' instead which
is the generic pointer type, so the compiler knows that it should
make no strict-aliasing assumption on `x'. But the problem with
`(void*)x' is that seems like in C++, unlike C, `void*' is not a
generic pointer type and assigning `void*' to `Bar*' without a cast
causes an error. The solution is to cast to `Bar*' too, with
`(Bar*)(void*)x' as the result -- this is what the patch does.
* include/freetype/cache/ftccache.h (FTC_CACHE_LOOKUP_CMP),
include/freetype/cache/ftcmru.h (FTC_MRULIST_LOOKUP_CMP): Remove
cast on lvalue, use a temporary pointer instead.
Cast temporarily to (void*) to not break strict aliasing.
* include/freetype/internal/ftmemory.h (FT_MEM_ALLOC,
FT_MEM_REALLOC, FT_MEM_QALLOC, FT_MEM_QREALLOC, FT_MEM_FREE),
src/base/ftglyph.c (FT_Glyph_To_Bitmap): Cast temporarily to (void*)
to not break strict aliasing.

* builds/unix/configure.ac (XX_CFLAGS): Remove -fno-strict-aliasing.
* src/sfnt/rules.mk (SFNT_DRV_SRC): Don't include ttsbit0.c --
it is currently loaded from ttsbit.c.
Other formatting.
drastically reduce the heap usage of FreeType, especially in the case
of memory-mapped files. The idea is to avoid loading and decoding tables
in the heap, and instead access the raw data whenever possible (i.e.
when it doesn't compromise performance).
This had several impacts: first, opening vera.ttf uses a ridiculous amount
of memory (when the FT_Library footprint is accounted for), until you start
loading glyphs. Even then, you'll save at least 20 Kb compared to the non
optimized case. performance of various operations, including open/close
has also been dramatically improved.
More optimisations to come. The auto-hinter eats memory like crazy? This
must be stopped...
. In all makefiles `/' is used as the path separator. The
conversion to the real path separators is done as late as
possible using $(subst ...).
. $(HOSTSEP) no longer exists. Now, $(SEP) gives the path separator
for the operating system, and the new $(COMPILER_SEP) the path
separator for the compiler tools.
. $(BUILD) has been renamed to $(BUILD_DIR). In general, all
directory variables end with `_DIR'. The variants ending in `_'
(like `BASE_' have been removed).
The following ChangeLog entries only describe changes which are
not related to the redesign.
* builds/beos/beos-def.mk (BUILD_DIR): Fix typo.

overlong arguments as suggested by J. Ali Harlow
<ali@avrc.city.ac.uk>.

src/sfnt/sfnt.c, src/sfnt/sfobjs.c,
src/sfnt/ttload.c, src/sfnt/ttcmap0.c, src/sfnt/ttcmap0.h:
updated the SFNT charmap support to use FT_CMaps
details.
* include/freetype/internal/cfferrs.h,
include/freetype/internal/tterrors.h,
include/freetype/internal/t1errors.h: Removed. Replaced with files
local to the module. All extra error codes have been moved to
`fterrors.h'.
* src/sfnt/ttpost.h: Move error codes to `fterrors.h'.
* src/autohint/aherrors.h, src/cache/ftcerror.h, src/cff/cfferrs.h,
src/cid/ciderrs.h, src/pcf/pcferror.h, src/psaux/psauxerr.h,
src/psnames/psnamerr.h, src/raster/rasterrs.h, src/sfnt/sferrors.h,
src/smooth/ftsmerrs.h, src/truetype/tterrors.h,
src/type1/t1errors.h, src/winfonts/fnterrs.h: New files defining the
error names for the module it belongs to.
* include/freetype/ftmoderr.h: New file, defining the module error
offsets. Its structure is similar to `fterrors.h'.
* include/freetype/fterrors.h (FT_NOERRORDEF): New macro.
(FT_ERRORDEF): Redefined to use module error offsets.
All internal error codes are now public; unused error codes have
been removed, some are new.
* include/freetype/config/ftheader.h (FT_MODULE_ERRORS_H): New
macro.
* include/freetype/config/ftoption.h
(FT_CONFIG_OPTION_USE_MODULE_ERRORS): New macro.
All other source files have been updated to use the new error codes;
some already existing (internal) error codes local to a module have
been renamed to give them the same name as in the base module.
All make files have been updated to include the local error files.
* src/cid/cidtokens.h: Replaced with...
* src/cid/cidtoken.h: This file for 8+3 consistency.
* src/raster/ftraster.c: Use macros for header file names.
* include/freetype/config/ftheader.h: removed obsolete macros like
FT_SOURCE_FILE, etc.. and added cache-specific macro definitions that
were previously defined in <freetype/ftcache.h>. Added comments to be
included in a new API Reference section.
* src/*/*: removed the use of FT_SOURCE_FILE, etc.. now, each component
needs to added its own directory to the include path at compile time.
Modified all "rules.mk" and "descrip.mms" accordingly..
Tons of unnecessary stuff have been removed; only the essential rules
have been retained.
The source files now depend on all header files in include/freetype,
include/freetype/config, and include/freetype/internal. This is not
optimal, I know, and I'll try to improve this, but it is better than
before (namely no dependencies on `internal').
FTDEBUG_SRC has been added (similar to FTSYS_SRC) -- I don't know
exactly whether this is really useful, but it doesn't harm.
There is now more documentation in the makefiles itself.
io-frames.html: Use of <th>, <code>, and <var> for better tagging.
Reactivating of FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_xxx macros.
Added a lot of #include directives to make `multi' builds possible -- note
that currently the modules cid, t1, and t1z have clashing structures and
functions which means that you can only use one of these three modules for a
multi build.
Added some missing function declarations to (local) header files.
Renamed some T1_Open_Face() to CID_Open_Face() in the cid module -- a lot
of other functions should be renamed also...
Replaced many FT_xxx stuff with T1_xxx in t1z driver -- this isn't finished
yet...
Fixed FT_Free() to allow a NULL pointer without an assertion (this has
always been a valid assumption in FreeType, at least in FT 1.x).
A lot of other, minor fixes (mostly documentation).
trace level.
Since FT2 is still beta, I've activated the FT_DEBUG_xxx macros by default.
To make reasonable output, I've changed some TRACEx macros to other levels.
fixed:
. Removing unused variables.
. detect.mk files now must provide $(CONFIG_FILE) and not $(CONFIG_RULE).
. ansi.mk will now be really used as a fallback if the detect mechanism
fails.
. ANSIFLAGS will now be really used (fixing a typo).
. `make clean' now works (again two typos).
. Detection of gcc on Unix has been fixed (using the `-v' option instead of
`--version').
. `make devel' now works (on Unix).
. Fixing *again* a bug in demos/graph/x11/rules.mk to allow multiple use
of `-L' compiler options.
. $(BASE_H) now contains a few more header files.
As usual, a lot of formatting (not finished yet).
use "$(FT_COMPILE)" instead of "$(FT_CC)" in order to
compile the library.
$(FT_COMPILE) uses the $(ANSI_FLAGS) variable used to
define ANSI-compliance flags for the current compiler. It is used
to compile the library exclusively (some demo programs will _not_
compile properly with these flags set).
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..
