Unknown chunk handling still uses the + string form because this is exposed in the API. + Added a note in the manual the png_read_update_info() must be called only + once with a particular info_ptr. + Revised test-pngtest.sh to report FAIL when pngtest fails. + Added "--strict" option to pngtest, to report FAIL when the failure is + only because the resulting valid files are different. + Revised CMakeLists.txt to work with mingw and removed some material from + CMakeLists.txt that is no longer useful in libpng-1.5. + Fixed typo in Makefile.in and Makefile.am ("-M Wl" should be "-M -Wl")." + Speed up png_combine_row() for interlaced images. This reduces the generality + of the code, allowing it to be optimized for Adam7 interlace. The masks + passed to png_combine_row() are now generated internally, avoiding + some code duplication and localizing the interlace handling somewhat. + Align png_struct::row_buf - previously it was always unaligned, caused by + a bug in the code that attempted to align it; the code needs to subtract + one from the pointer to take account of the filter byte prepended to + each row. + Optimized png_combine_row() when rows are aligned. This gains a small + percentage for 16-bit and 32-bit pixels in the typical case where the + output row buffers are appropriately aligned. The optimization was not + previously possible because the png_struct buffer was always misaligned. + Removed two redundant tests for unitialized row. + Fixed a relatively harmless memory overwrite in compressed text writing + with a 1 byte zlib buffer. + Add ability to call png_read_update_info multiple times to pngvalid.c + Fixes for multiple calls to png_read_update_info. These fixes attend to + most of the errors revealed in pngvalid, however doing the gamma work + twice results in inaccuracies that can't be easily fixed. There is now + a warning in the code if this is going to happen. + Turned on multiple png_read_update_info in pngvalid transform tests. + Prevent libpng from overwriting unused bits at the end of the image when + it is not byte aligned, while reading. Prior to libpng-1.5.6 libpng would + overwrite the partial byte at the end of each row if the row width was not + an exact multiple of 8 bits and the image is not interlaced. + Made png_ptr->prev_row an aligned pointer into png_ptr->big_prev_row + (Mans Rullgard). + Changed misleading "Missing PLTE before cHRM" warning to "Out of place cHRM" + Added PNG_LSR() and PNG_LSL() macros to defend against buggy compilers that + evaluate non-taken code branches and complain about out-of-range shifts. + Renamed the local variable 'byte' because it appears in a MSYS header + file. + Added #define PNG_ALIGN_TYPE PNG_ALIGN_NONE to contrib/pngminim/*/pngusr.h + +Send comments/corrections/commendations to png-mng-implement at lists.sf.net +(subscription required; visit +https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/png-mng-implement +to subscribe) +or to glennrp at users.sourceforge.net Glenn R-P
