| Libpng 1.6.7beta04 - October 24, 2013
 | |
|

| This is not intended to be a public release.  It will be replaced
 | |
| within a few weeks by a public version or by another test version.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Files available for download:
 | |
| 
 | |
| Source files with LF line endings (for Unix/Linux) and with a
 | |
| "configure" script
 | |
| 
 | |
|    1.6.7beta04.tar.xz (LZMA-compressed, recommended)
 | |
|    1.6.7beta04.tar.gz
 | |
| 
 | |
| Source files with CRLF line endings (for Windows), without the
 | |
| "configure" script
 | |
| 
 | |
|    lp167b04.7z  (LZMA-compressed, recommended)
 | |
|    lp167b04.zip

 | |
| 
 | |
| Changes since the last public release (1.6.6):
 | |
| 
 | |
| Version 1.6.7beta01 [September 30, 2013]
 | |
|   Revised unknown chunk code to correct several bugs in the NO_SAVE_/NO_WRITE
 | |
|     combination
 | |
|   Allow HANDLE_AS_UNKNOWN to work when other options are configured off. Also
 | |
|     fixed the pngminim makefiles to work when $(MAKEFLAGS) contains stuff
 | |
|     which terminates the make options (as by default in recent versions of
 | |
|     Gentoo).
 | |
|   Avoid up-cast warnings in pngvalid.c. On ARM the alignment requirements of
 | |
|     png_modifier are greater than that of png_store and as a consequence
 | |
|     compilation of pngvalid.c results in a warning about increased alignment
 | |
|     requirements because of the bare cast to (png_modifier*). The code is safe,
 | |
|     because the pointer is known to point to a stack allocated png_modifier,
 | |
|     but this change avoids the warning.
 | |
|   Fixed default behavior of ARM_NEON_API. If the ARM NEON API option was
 | |
|     compiled without the CHECK option it defaulted to on, not off.
 | |
|   Check user callback behavior in pngunknown.c. Previous versions compiled
 | |
|     if SAVE_UNKNOWN was not available but did nothing since the callback
 | |
|     was never implemented.
 | |
|   Merged pngunknown.c with 1.7 version and back ported 1.7 improvements/fixes
 | |
| 
 | |
| Version 1.6.7beta02 [October 12, 2013]
 | |
|   Made changes for compatibility with automake 1.14:
 | |
|     1) Added the 'compile' program to the list of programs that must be cleaned
 | |
|        in autogen.sh
 | |
|     2) Added 'subdir-objects' which causes .c files in sub-directories to be
 | |
|        compiled such that the corresponding .o files are also in the
 | |
|        sub-directory.  This is because automake 1.14 warns that the
 | |
|        current behavior of compiling to the top level directory may be removed
 | |
|        in the future.
 | |
|     3) Updated dependencies on pnglibconf.h to match the new .o locations and
 | |
|        added all the files in contrib/libtests and contrib/tools that depend
 | |
|        on pnglibconf.h
 | |
|     4) Added 'BUILD_SOURCES = pnglibconf.h'; this is the automake recommended
 | |
|        way of handling the dependencies of sources that are machine generated;
 | |
|        unfortunately it only works if the user does 'make all' or 'make check',
 | |
|        so the dependencies (3) are still required.
 | |
|   Cleaned up (char*) casts of zlib messages. The latest version of the Intel C
 | |
|     compiler complains about casting a string literal as (char*), so copied the
 | |
|     treatment of z_const from the library code into pngfix.c
 | |
|   Simplified error message code in pngunknown. The simplification has the
 | |
|     useful side effect of avoiding a bogus warning generated by the latest
 | |
|     version of the Intel C compiler (it objects to
 | |
|     condition ? string-literal : string-literal).
 | |
|   Make autogen.sh work with automake 1.13 as well as 1.14. Do this by always
 | |
|     removing the 1.14 'compile' script but never checking for it.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Version 1.6.7beta03 [October 19, 2013]
 | |
|   Added ARMv8 support (James Yu <james.yu at linaro.org>).  Added file
 | |
|     arm/filter_neon_intrinsics.c; enable with -mfpu=neon.
 | |
|   Revised pngvalid to generate size images with as many filters as it can
 | |
|     manage, limited by the number of rows.
 | |
|   Cleaned up ARM NEON compilation handling. The tests are now in pngpriv.h
 | |
|     and detect the broken GCC compilers.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Version 1.6.7beta04 [October 24, 2013]
 | |
|   Allow clang derived from older GCC versions to use ARM intrinsics. This
 | |
|     causes all clang builds that use -mfpu=neon to use the intrinsics code,
 | |
|     not the assembler code.  This has only been tested on iOS 7. It may be
 | |
|     necessary to exclude some earlier clang versions but this seems unlikely.
