defaults. Previously a return of 0 from a user chunk callback would result in
the chunk being saved (if this was safe, even if the chunk was unsafe-to-copy);
this change respects the defaults set by the application, so unknown chunks
can be discarded by default and known-safe ones preserved.
on SUN OS cc 5.9, which demonstrates the tokenization problem previously
avoided by using /lib/cpp. Since all .dfn output is now protected
in double quotes unless it is to be macro substituted the fix should work
everywhere.
sCAL APIs; some of these use floating point arithmetic so they need to be
disabled if floating point arithmetic is switched off. This is a quiet API
change - previously it appeared that the APIs were supported if fixed point
arithmetic was used internally, however they required certain APIs (floor,
modf, frexp, atof) that are part of C floating point support. Changed
png_fixed and the gamma code specific version of the same to avoid floor(),
which may be a library function (not an intrinsic). Removed unused #if 0
code.
png_malloc_default png_free_default.
Updated some left over "1.6.0beta32" in code sources.
Fixed a "png_structp" prototype (should be png_structrp) in arm_init.c
Updated the version-number hack in pngvalid.c
handling png_struct members rearranged - partly to reorder to avoid packing,
partly to put frequently accessed members at the start and partly to make
the grouping more clear. png_set_filter code has been rewritten and the
code shared with png_write_start_row moved to a common function. Comments
in png.h have been made more clear. Minor fixes to
contrib/libtests/timepng.c and some of the png_*_tRNS logic, including
more error detection in png_set_tRNS.
These changes cause 16-bit arithmetic to be used for 8-bit data in the gamma
corrected compose and grayscale operations. The arithmetic errors have
three sources all of which are fixed in this commit:
1) 8-bit linear calculations produce massive errors for lower intensity
values.
2) The old 16-bit "16 to 8" gamma table code erroneously wrote the lowest
output value into a table entry which corresponded to multiple output
values (so where the value written should have been the closest to the
transformed input value.)
3) In a number of cases the code to access the 16-bit table did not round;
it did a simple shift, which was wrong and made the side effects of (2)
even worse.
The new gamma code does not have the 16-to-8 problem at the cost of slighly
more calculations and the algorithm used to minimize the number of
calculations has been extended to all the 16-bit tables; it has advantages
for any significant gamma correction.
