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.

documentation of `outline' field.
* src/sfnt/sfobjc.s: Inckude FT_INTERNAL_DEBUG_H.
* src/sfnt/sfdriver.c: Include ttmtx.h.
* src/autofit/afcjk.c: Include aftypes.h and aflatin.h.
directory (offset table and table directory) as a normal table like
the others. This also means that TTC is no longer recognized there,
but in `init_face'.
* include/freetype/internal/sfnt.h (SFNT_Interface),
src/sfnt/sfdriver.c: `load_sfnt_header' and `load_directory' are
combined and renamed to `load_font_dir'.
* src/sfnt/ttload.h, src/sfnt/ttload.c:
s/sfnt_dir_check/check_table_dir/.
`sfnt_init' is moved to sfobjs.c and renamed to `sfnt_open_font'.
`tt_face_load_sfnt_header' and `tt_face_load_directory' are combined
and renamed to `tt_face_load_font_dir'.
* src/sfnt/sfobjs.c (sfnt_init_face): Recognize TTC here.
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'.
* include/freetype/internal/sfnt.h, src/sfnt/rules.mk,
src/sfnt/sfdriver.c, src/sfnt/sfnt.c, src/sfnt/sfobjs.c,
src/sfnt/ttload.c, src/sfnt/ttload.h, src/sfnt/ttsbit.c,
src/sfnt/ttsbit.h, src/sfnt/ttsbit0.c: Clean up the SFNT_Interface.
* src/sfnt/ttmtx.c, src/sfnt/ttmtx.h: Metrics-related tables' loading
and parsing code is moved here.
Move `tt_face_get_metrics' here from the truetype module. The return
value is changed from `void' to `FT_Error'.
* include/freetype/internal/fttrace.h: New trace: ttmtx.
* src/truetype/ttpload.c, src/truetype/ttpload.h: `hdmx' loading and
parsing code is moved here.
New function `tt_face_load_prep' splitted from `tt_face_load_fpgm'.
`tt_face_load_fpgm' returns `FT_Err_Ok' if `fpgm' doesn't exist.
* src/cff/cffgload.c, src/cff/cffobjs.c: Update.
* src/truetype/ttgload.c, src/truetype/ttobjs.c: Update.
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...
want to list them all here. The operations performed were all logical
transformations of the sources:
- trying to convert all enums and constants to CAPITALIZED_STYLE, with
#define definitions like
#define my_old_constants MY_NEW_CONSTANT
- big, big update of the documentation comments
* include/freetype/freetype.h, src/base/ftobjs.c, src/smooth/ftsmooth.c,
include/freetype/ftimage.h: adding support for LCD-optimized rendering
though the new constants/enums:
FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD, FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD_V
FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD, FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD_V
this is still work in progress, don't expect everything to work correctly
though most of the features have been implemented.
* adding new FT_LOAD_XXX flags, used to specify both hinting and rendering
targets:
FT_LOAD_TARGET_NORMAL :: anti-aliased hinting & rendering
FT_LOAD_TARGET_MONO :: monochrome bitmaps
FT_LOAD_TARGET_LCD :: horizontal RGB/BGR decimated hinting & rendering
FT_LOAD_TARGET_LCD_V :: vertical RGB/BGR decimated hinting & rendering
note that FT_LOAD_TARGET_NORMAL is 0, which means that the default
behaviour of the font engine is _unchanged_.
the SFNT loader to check for SFNT-based font files differently. We now
ignore the range "helper" fields and check the "head" table's magic
number instead.
`__' (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
I've made a few modifications:
- there is no new field named "driver" in "FT_SizeRec"
- the new fields in "TT_SizeRec" are:
strike_index :: value 0xFFFF means "no sbit strike selected"
strike_metrics :: the FT_Size_Metrics structure corresponding to
the currently selected strike
- the code in "ttload.c" has been somewhat cleaned up too
thanks a lot, Y-U !!

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++.
rid of most of the basic types redefinitions (i.e. FT_Int instead
of "FT_Int", etc..)
The format-specific prefixs like "TT_", "T1_", "T2_" & 'CID_"
are now only used in relevant structures..
fixed Werner's fix to t2gload.c :-)
other small bug fixes
checking based on the "search_rang", etc.., fields of
the sfnt header..
This avoids problems (like certain Type 1 multiple masters
incorrectly recognized as trueType files)..
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..
- modified the interface of the "sfnt" module. There is now a function
called "load_format_tag", and another called "load_directory".
The first one is in charge of returning the 4-byte tag located at
the beginning of a given font file. It understand TrueType collections
and parses them automatically
The second loads the table directory that is located just after
the format tag.
This is useful, because the "SFNT" storage scheme can be used by
several distinct formats, each with its own format tag.
The TrueType driver now checks the format tag in "src/truetype/ttobjs.c"
- made some changes to "src/shared/t1types.h" to clearly separate the
Type 1 font content from the rest of the T1_Face structure. This
will be useful when adding the CFF/Type2 driver that will be able
to reuse the "T1_Font" structure within a "TT_Font" one (which
really describes a SFNT-based font file).
Some changes in "src/type1" were thus performed to reflect this.
Note that the current type1 driver will be discontinued in a
distant future. More on this later..
