2020-07-11  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	[sdf] Completed the coarse grid optimization.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (sdf_generate_coarse_grid): Fixed
	  an issue with position calculation and upside down
	  images.

2020-07-10  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	[sdf] Partially completed the coarse grid optimization.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (sdf_generate_coarse_grid): Added
	  functionality to check distances of all edges from
	  the coarse grid and add the relevant edges to the 
	  list.
	  [Note]: The function is not complete yet.

2020-07-10  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	[sdf] Added the coarse grid optimization function.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (sdf_generate_coarse_grid): The
	  function uses coarse grid to optimize nearest edge
	  search performance.

2020-07-10  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	[sdf] Remove use of `FT_List'.

	Simply use a `next' pointer inside `SDF_Edge' and
	`SDF_Contour' to create a linked list. This reduces
	the number of allocations due to `FT_ListNode', also
	we don't need a doubly linked list.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (SDF_Edge, SDF_Contour): Remove the
	  `FT_List' and use a `next' pointer to create the
	  linked list.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c(sdf_edge_destructor, sdf_contour_destructor):
	  Removed, not needed any more.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (*): Remove the use of `FT_List_'
	  functions wherever necessary and sync with the new
	  list.

2020-07-09  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	[sdf] Added subdivision optimization.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (sdf_generate_subdivision): The
	  function generate SDF just like the `sdf_generate'
	  function, but subdivide the curve into a number of
	  lines and then use the `sdf_generate_bounding_box'
	  function to generate SDF.

2020-07-09  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	[sdf] Added functions to subdivide a cubic curve.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (split_cubic, split_sdf_cubic):
	  These functions can be used to subdivide a
	  cubic bezier curve into line segments which can
	  then be used to generate the SDF.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (split_sdf_shape): Added function
	  to split a cubic into a line segments.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (sdf_shape_done): No need to pass
	  `FT_Memory' as a parameter, it can be accessed
	  from the `shape' struct.

2020-07-09  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (split_sdf_shape): Typo.

2020-07-08  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (split_sdf_shape): Memory leak.
	  After recursion the edges variable becomes `NULL'
	  so reassign it to deallocate the list completely.

2020-07-08  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	[sdf] Added functions to subdivide a conic curve.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (split_conic, split_sdf_conic):
	  These functions can be used to subdivide a
	  conic bezier curve into line segments which can
	  then be used to generate the SDF.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (split_sdf_shape): Added function
	  to split a outline into a line segments.

2020-07-06  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	* [GSoC]ChangLog: Fixed typos.

2020-07-06  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	* src/sdf/ftsdfrend.c (sdf_generate_bounding_box): Due to
	  the way we use the bounding box, we need to keep a track
	  of signed distances of each pixel so later the sign can
	  be determined properly. The method is certainly faster
	  then checking all the pixels against all the edges,
	  but also require a decent amount of memory to work.

2020-07-06  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	[sdf] Precompute the orthogonality.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (SDF_Signed_Distance): Remove unused
	  fields.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (resolve_corner): The function can be
	  simplified to a single line. Instead of computing
	  orthogonality here, we precompute it in the corresponding
	  `get_min_distance_' functions more efficiently.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (get_min_distance_): Precompute orthogonality/
	  cross product of direction and the distance vector. Since
	  in these function we know that weather the distance vector
	  and the direction are perpendicular, we can simply set
	  the cross to 1 (sin(90) = 1) in case they are perpendicular.
	  This can reduce the number of `FT_Vector_NormLen' calls.

2020-07-05  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	[sdf] Added bounding box optimization.

	* src/sdf/ftsdfrend.c (sdf_generate_bounding_box): The
	  function generate SDF just like the `sdf_generate'
	  function, but uses bounding box to check pixels
	  efficiently.

	* src/sdf/ftsdfrend.c (get_control_box): Added function
	  to get control box of a `SDF_Edge'.

2020-07-04  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	* src/sdf/ftsdfrend.c (sdf_shape_dump): Use `%ld' to
	  printf `signed long' otherwise it gives wrong output.

2020-07-04  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	* src/sdf/ftsdfrend.c (ft_sdf_render): Don't negate
	  unsigned integers.

2020-07-03  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c: Use ASCII single quote (') instead
	  of back tick (`) for derivatives. Looks cleaner.

2020-07-03  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	[sdf] Added function to find shortest distance from a
	point to a cubic bezier. Now the sdf module can render
	all types of fonts, but still has some issues.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (get_min_distance_cubic): The function
	  calculates shortest distance from a point to a cubic
	  bezier curve.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (sdf_edge_get_min_distance): Add the
	  `get_min_distance_cubic' function call.

2020-07-03  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (resolve_corner): [Bug] Remove the
	  nearest_point check. Two distances can be same and
	  can give opposite sign, but they may not have a
	  common nearest_point. Also remove distance check
	  because due to precision errors the two distances can
	  be really really close. Therefore use epsilon instead.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (sdf_contour_get_min_distance): Use
	  epsilon for comparing distances.

2020-07-03  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

2020-07-02  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	[sdf] Added Newton's method for shortest distance
	from a point to a conic.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (get_min_distance_conic): Created
	  a new function with same name which uses Newton's
	  iteration for finding shortest distance from a point
	  to a conic curve. This doesn't causes underflow.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (USE_NEWTON_FOR_CONIC): This macro
	  can be used to toggle between Newton or analytical
	  cubic solving method.

2020-07-01	Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	[sdf] Make squared distances toggleable.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (SDF_Signed_Distance): Renamed 
	  squared_distance to distance. It can now represent
	  both squared as well as actual distances.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (USE_SQUARED_DISTANCES): Added macro
	  which control weather to do computation is squared
	  distances or actual distances. This can be used to
	  avoid overflow when generating large SDF bitmaps.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c: Make sure not to exceed line length
	  of 78.

2020-07-01	Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (get_min_distance_conic): In case

	  calculates shortest distance from a point to a conic
	  bezier curve.

2020-06-28  Anuj Verma  <anujv@iitbhilai.ac.in>

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (SDF_Iterator_IO): Removed.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (sdf_edge_iterator_func => sdf_edge_get_min_distance
	  sdf_contour_iterator_func => sdf_contour_get_min_distance): Renamed.
	  Manually iterate through the lists instead of `FT_List_Iterate' to

	while rasterizing.

	* src/sdf/ftsdf.c (sdf_shape_dump): Use `FT_TRACEX'
