2 | ChangeLog file for zlib | |
3 | ||
4 | Changes in 1.1.2 (19 March 98) | |
5 | - added contrib/minzip, mini zip and unzip based on zlib (Gilles Vollant) | |
6 | See http://www.winimage.com/zLibDll/unzip.html | |
7 | - preinitialize the inflate tables for fixed codes, to make the code | |
8 | completely thread safe (Mark) | |
9 | - some simplifications and slight speed-up to the inflate code (Mark) | |
10 | - fix gzeof on non-compressed files (Allan Schrum) | |
11 | - add -std1 option in configure for OSF1 to fix gzprintf (Martin Mokrejs) | |
12 | - use default value of 4K for Z_BUFSIZE for 16-bit MSDOS (Tim Wegner + Glenn) | |
13 | - added os2/Makefile.def and os2/zlib.def (Andrew Zabolotny) | |
14 | - add shared lib support for UNIX_SV4.2MP (MATSUURA Takanori) | |
15 | - do not wrap extern "C" around system includes (Tom Lane) | |
16 | - mention zlib binding for TCL in README (Andreas Kupries) | |
17 | - added amiga/Makefile.pup for Amiga powerUP SAS/C PPC (Andreas Kleinert) | |
18 | - allow "make install prefix=..." even after configure (Glenn Randers-Pehrson) | |
19 | - allow "configure --prefix $HOME" (Tim Mooney) | |
20 | - remove warnings in example.c and gzio.c (Glenn Randers-Pehrson) | |
21 | - move Makefile.sas to amiga/Makefile.sas | |
22 | ||
23 | Changes in 1.1.1 (27 Feb 98) | |
24 | - fix macros _tr_tally_* in deflate.h for debug mode (Glenn Randers-Pehrson) | |
25 | - remove block truncation heuristic which had very marginal effect for zlib | |
26 | (smaller lit_bufsize than in gzip 1.2.4) and degraded a little the | |
27 | compression ratio on some files. This also allows inlining _tr_tally for | |
28 | matches in deflate_slow. | |
29 | - added msdos/Makefile.w32 for WIN32 Microsoft Visual C++ (Bob Frazier) | |
30 | ||
31 | Changes in 1.1.0 (24 Feb 98) | |
32 | - do not return STREAM_END prematurely in inflate (John Bowler) | |
33 | - revert to the zlib 1.0.8 inflate to avoid the gcc 2.8.0 bug (Jeremy Buhler) | |
34 | - compile with -DFASTEST to get compression code optimized for speed only | |
35 | - in minigzip, try mmap'ing the input file first (Miguel Albrecht) | |
36 | - increase size of I/O buffers in minigzip.c and gzio.c (not a big gain | |
37 | on Sun but significant on HP) | |
38 | ||
39 | - add a pointer to experimental unzip library in README (Gilles Vollant) | |
40 | - initialize variable gcc in configure (Chris Herborth) | |
41 | ||
42 | Changes in 1.0.9 (17 Feb 1998) | |
43 | - added gzputs and gzgets functions | |
44 | - do not clear eof flag in gzseek (Mark Diekhans) | |
45 | - fix gzseek for files in transparent mode (Mark Diekhans) | |
46 | - do not assume that vsprintf returns the number of bytes written (Jens Krinke) | |
47 | - replace EXPORT with ZEXPORT to avoid conflict with other programs | |
48 | - added compress2 in zconf.h, zlib.def, zlib.dnt | |
49 | - new asm code from Gilles Vollant in contrib/asm386 | |
50 | - simplify the inflate code (Mark): | |
51 | . Replace ZALLOC's in huft_build() with single ZALLOC in inflate_blocks_new() | |
52 | . ZALLOC the length list in inflate_trees_fixed() instead of using stack | |
53 | . ZALLOC the value area for huft_build() instead of using stack | |
54 | . Simplify Z_FINISH check in inflate() | |
55 | ||
56 | - Avoid gcc 2.8.0 comparison bug a little differently than zlib 1.0.8 | |
57 | - in inftrees.c, avoid cc -O bug on HP (Farshid Elahi) | |
58 | - in zconf.h move the ZLIB_DLL stuff earlier to avoid problems with | |
59 | the declaration of FAR (Gilles VOllant) | |
60 | - install libz.so* with mode 755 (executable) instead of 644 (Marc Lehmann) | |
61 | - read_buf buf parameter of type Bytef* instead of charf* | |
62 | - zmemcpy parameters are of type Bytef*, not charf* (Joseph Strout) | |
63 | - do not redeclare unlink in minigzip.c for WIN32 (John Bowler) | |
64 | - fix check for presence of directories in "make install" (Ian Willis) | |
65 | ||
66 | Changes in 1.0.8 (27 Jan 1998) | |
67 | - fixed offsets in contrib/asm386/gvmat32.asm (Gilles Vollant) | |
68 | - fix gzgetc and gzputc for big endian systems (Markus Oberhumer) | |
69 | - added compress2() to allow setting the compression level | |
70 | - include sys/types.h to get off_t on some systems (Marc Lehmann & QingLong) | |
71 | - use constant arrays for the static trees in trees.c instead of computing | |
72 | them at run time (thanks to Ken Raeburn for this suggestion). To create | |
73 | trees.h, compile with GEN_TREES_H and run "make test". | |
74 | - check return code of example in "make test" and display result | |
75 | - pass minigzip command line options to file_compress | |
76 | - simplifying code of inflateSync to avoid gcc 2.8 bug | |
77 | ||

79 | - avoid a flush caused by ftell in gzopen for write mode (Ken Raeburn) | |
80 | - fix test for shared library support to avoid compiler warnings | |
81 | - zlib.lib -> zlib.dll in msdos/zlib.rc (Gilles Vollant) | |
82 | - check for TARGET_OS_MAC in addition to MACOS (Brad Pettit) | |
83 | - do not use fdopen for Metrowerks on Mac (Brad Pettit)) | |
84 | - add checks for gzputc and gzputc in example.c | |
85 | - avoid warnings in gzio.c and deflate.c (Andreas Kleinert) | |
86 | - use const for the CRC table (Ken Raeburn) | |
87 | - fixed "make uninstall" for shared libraries | |
88 | - use Tracev instead of Trace in infblock.c | |
89 | - in example.c use correct compressed length for test_sync | |
90 | - suppress +vnocompatwarnings in configure for HPUX (not always supported) | |
91 | ||

110 | gzsetparams (thanks to Roland Giersig and Kevin Ruland for some of this code) | |
111 | - Fix a deflate bug occuring only with compression level 0 (thanks to | |
112 | Andy Buckler for finding this one). | |
113 | - In minigzip, pass transparently also the first byte for .Z files. | |
114 | - return Z_BUF_ERROR instead of Z_OK if output buffer full in uncompress() | |
115 | - check Z_FINISH in inflate (thanks to Marc Schluper) | |
116 | - Implement deflateCopy (thanks to Adam Costello) | |
117 | - make static libraries by default in configure, add --shared option. | |
118 | - move MSDOS or Windows specific files to directory msdos | |
119 | - suppress the notion of partial flush to simplify the interface | |
120 | (but the symbol Z_PARTIAL_FLUSH is kept for compatibility with 1.0.4) | |
121 | - suppress history buffer provided by application to simplify the interface | |
122 | (this feature was not implemented anyway in 1.0.4) | |

127 | - added the unsupported "contrib" directory: | |

130 | contrib/iostream/ by Kevin Ruland <kevin@rodin.wustl.edu> | |
131 | A C++ I/O streams interface to the zlib gz* functions | |
