@ -4977,6 +4977,25 @@ Some functions that were deprecated in libpng-1.6.0 were removed:
png_malloc_default(),
and png_free_default().
The PNG_ABORT() macro was changed to PNG_ABORT, and the default is now
"abort()" for all platforms (previously it was "ExitProcess(0)" on
Windows platforms). Starting with libpng-1.7.0 you have to define
PNG_ABORT instead of PNG_ABORT(), e.g.,
#if PNGCRUSH_LIBPNG_VER >= 10700
# ifdef _WINDOWS_
# define PNG_ABORT ExitProcess(0);
# else
# define PNG_ABORT abort();
# endif
#else
# ifdef _WINDOWS_
# define PNG_ABORT() ExitProcess(0)
# else
# define PNG_ABORT() abort()
# endif
#endif
The 8-bit compose and rgb_to_grayscale operations were made more accurate.
While these did not introduce API incompatibility, there may be differences
in unit test results.
