12 | Keith Packard: | |
13 | Make path names in cache files absolute (NB, cache format change) Stop | |
14 | Eliminate pattern freezing | |
15 | Add .gitignore | |
16 | Construct short architecture name from architecture signature. | |
17 | Write caches to first directory with permission. Valid cache in FcDirCacheOpen. | |
18 | Eliminate NormalizeDir. Eliminate gratuitous stat/access calls per dir. | |
19 | Add architecture to cache filename. | |
20 | Eliminate global cache. Eliminate multi-arch cache code. | |
21 | Fix up fc-cache and fc-cat for no global cache changes. | |
22 | Eliminate ./ and ../ elements from font directory names when scanning. | |
23 | Regenerate x86 line in fcarch.tmpl.h to match change in cache data. | |
24 | Add x86-64 architecture and signature. | |
25 | During test run, remove cache directory to avoid stale cache usage. | |
26 | Add ppc architecture | |
27 | Revert to original FcFontSetMatch algorithm to avoid losing fonts. | |
28 | Rework cache files to use offsets for all data structures. | |
29 | Fix build problems caused by cache rework. | |
30 | FcCharSetSerialize was using wrong offset for leaves. Make fc-cat work. | |
31 | Rework Object name database to unify typechecking and object lookup. | |
32 | Skip broken caches. Cache files are auto-written, don't rewrite in fc-cache. | |
33 | Fix fc-cat again. Sigh. | |
34 | Use intptr_t instead of off_t inside FcCache structure. | |
35 | Serialized value lists were only including one value. | |
36 | Automatically remove invalid cache files. | |
37 | With no args, fc-cat now dumps all directories. | |
38 | Revert ABI changes from version 2.3 | |
39 | Change $(pkgcachedir) to $(fc_cachedir) in fc-cat and fc-cache Makefile.am | |
40 | Allow FcTypeLangSet to match either FcTypeLangSet or FcTypeString. | |
41 | Remove stale architecture signatures. | |
42 | Pass directory information around in FcCache structure. Freeze charsets. | |
43 | Fix fc-lang to use new charset freezer API. | |
44 | Fontset pattern references are relative to fontset, not array. | |
45 | Add some ignores | |
46 | Only rebuild caches for system fonts at make install time. | |
47 | Fix memory leaks in fc-cache directory cleaning code. | |
48 | Add @EXPAT_LIBS@ to Libs.private in fontconfig.pc (bug 7683) | |
49 | Avoid #warning directives on non-GCC compilers. (bug 7683) | |
50 | Chinese/Macau needs the Hong Kong orthography instead of Taiwan (bug 7884) | |
51 | Add Assamese orthography (as.orth). Bug #8050 | |
52 | Really only rebuild caches for system fonts at make install time. | |
53 | Fonts matching lang not territory should satisfy sort pattern lang. | |
54 | Prefer Bitstream Vera to DejaVu families. | |
55 | Guess that mac roman names with lots of high bits are actually SJIS. | |
56 | Document FC_DEBUG values (bug 6393). Document name \ escape syntax. | |
57 | Move Free family names to bottom of respective aliases. (bug 7429) | |
58 | Unify directory canonicalization into FcStrAddFilename. | |
59 | Allow font caches to contain newer version numbers | |
60 | Add FcMatchScan to resolve Delicious font matching issues (bug #6769) | |
61 | Fix missing initialization/destruction of new 'scan' target subst list. | |
62 | Don't segfault when string values can't be parsed as charsets or langsets. | |
63 | Using uninitialized (and wrong) variable in FcStrCopyFilename. | |
64 | Oops; missed the 60-delicious.conf file. | |

73 | 2.3.95 |
74 | ||
75 | Match 'Standard Symbols L' for 'Symbol'. Add URW fonts as aliases for | |
76 | all of the PostScript fonts. (reported by Miguel Rodriguez). Fix a | |
77 | number of Coverity defects (Frederic Crozat). Speed up FcFontSort | |
78 | (fix suggested by Kenichi Handa). Fix error with charsets. Survive | |
79 | missing docbook2pdf. Compile on HP-UX, AIX, SGI and Windows (Cygwin, | |
80 | MinGW). Fix intel compiler warnings. Fix multiarch support (don't | |
81 | destroy multiarch files!) Require pkg-config. (Thanks Behdad; better | |
82 | solution wanted for libxml2 detection!) Fix typos in orth files and | |
83 | add orth for Lingala (reported by Denis Jacquerye). Remove debian/ | |
84 | directory. Add a configuration file that disables hinting for the | |
85 | Lohit Gujarati font (since the hinting distorts some glyphs quite | |
86 | badly). Sort directory entries while scanning them from disk; | |
87 | prevents Heisenbugs due to file ordering in a directory (due to Egmont | |
88 | Koblinger). Fix Wine's problem with finding fonts. (Reported by | |
3b013a03 PL |
89 | Bernhard Rosenkraenzer.) Fix the issues with GNU libiconv vs. libc |
90 | iconv (which especially appear on Solarii); patch by Behdad Esfahbod, | |
91 | approach suggested by Tim Mooney. | |

94 | ||
95 | fc-cat can take directories as input and creates old-style fonts.cache | |
96 | listings. | |
97 | fc-cache takes -r --really-force which blows away all old caches and | |
98 | regenerates. | |
99 | Robustness fixes, integer overflow fixes (notably to cache handling | |
100 | code), toast broken global cache files. | |
101 | Change binary format to make it compatible with static langset | |
102 | information (thanks to Takashi Iwai). | |
103 | Open hashed caches before fonts.cache-2 (Takashi Iwai). | |
104 | Fix FcFontSetMatch's algorithm, which used to unjustly kill fonts for | |
105 | not declaring certain elements (Takashi Iwai). | |
106 | Fix matching bug when multiple elements match; don't use | |
107 | the sum of all scores, but the best score (James Su). | |
108 | Make fc-lang more friendly to Windows systems. | |
109 | Remove archaic chars from Georgian charset; add Euro character to | |
110 | charsets for European languages. | |
111 | Fix treatment of broken PCF fonts that don't declare family names. | |
112 | Pass O_BINARY to open if appropriate (reported by Doodle). | |
113 | Normalize font directories to the form in which they appear in | |
114 | config files. | |
115 | Add a record of the cached directory to the cache file. | |
116 | Perf optimizations (Dirk Mueller; some reported by Michael Meeks.) | |
117 | Don't loop infinitely on recursive symlinks. | |
118 | Make 'make distcheck' work with automake 1.6.3. | |
119 | Replace 'stamp' target with mkinstalldirs. | |
120 | Don't stop scanning if a directory in fonts.conf doesn't exist, | |
121 | because subsequent directories might exist. | |
122 | Put directory names into global cache (reported by Ronny V. Vindenes). | |
123 | Treat zh-hk fonts differently from zh-tw fonts. This patch may cause | |
124 | fontconfig to treat A-X fonts differently from A-Y fonts; please mail | |
125 | the fontconfig list if this causes any problems. | |
126 | Fix for unaligned memory accesses (Andreas Schwab). | |
127 | Fix treatment of cache directory as read from cache file; don't use | |
128 | string equality to determine if we have the right file, use inode | |
129 | equality. | |
130 | Properly skip past dir caches that contain zero fonts, as occurs | |
131 | in global caches (reported by Mike Fabian). | |
132 | Print out full pathname in fc-match -v (reported by Frederic Crozat). | |
133 | Fix bug where fc-match crashes when given __DUMMY__ property to | |
134 | match on. | |
135 | ||
3bfae75d PL |
136 | 2.3.93 |
137 | ||
138 | Create cache files in /var/cache/fontconfig with hashed filenames, if | |
139 | possible, for added FHS compliance. | |
140 | Make fc-cat read both per-directory and global cache files. | |
141 | Add config file for Persian fonts from Sharif FarsiWeb, Inc. | |
142 | Major performance improvements by Dirk Mueller, Stephen Kulow, and Michael Matz at SuSE: in particular, speed up FcFontSetMatch, and inline many functions. | |
143 | Fix treatment of globs in config files, broken since 2.3.2 and discovered by Mathias Clasen. | |
144 | Don't use freetype internal headers (patch by Matthias Clasen). | |
145 | Further space improvements: create langsets statically, so that they can live in .rodata. | |
146 | Properly align mmapped data structures to make e.g. ia64 happy. | |
147 | Bug fixes. | |
148 | ||

149 | 2.3.92 |

151 | Fix corrupted caches bugs from 2.3.91 (reported by Mike Fabian). | |
152 | Store only basename in the cache, reconstitute on demand | |
153 | (reported by James Cloos). | |
154 | Change the rule for artificial emboldening in fonts.conf.in. This | |
155 | enables the support for artificial emboldening included in cairo | |
156 | (patch by Zhe Su). | |
157 | Add FC_EMBEDDED_BITMAP object type to tell Xft/Cairo whether | |
158 | to load embedded bitmaps or not (patch by Jinghua Luo). | |
159 | Fix GCC4 warnings (some by Behdad Esfahbod). | |
160 | Support localized font family and style names; this has been reported | |
161 | to break old apps like xfd, but modern (gtk+/qt/mozilla) apps work | |
162 | fine (patch by Zhe Su). | |
163 | Prevent fc-list from escaping strings when printing them (reported by | |
164 | Matthias Clasen). | |
165 | Add valist sentinel markup for FcObjectSetBuild and | |
166 | FcPatternBuild (patch by Marcus Meissner). | |
167 | Add consts to variables so as to move arrays into .rodata (patch by | |
168 | Ross Burton). | |
169 | Modify config file to use Greek fonts before Asian fonts with | |
170 | Greek glyphs. (patch by Simos Xenitellis). | |
171 | Use libtool -no-undefined flag on all platforms (patch by Christian | |
172 | Biesinger). | |

176 | Use libxml2 if requested or if expat not available. (Mathias Hasselmann) | |
177 | Fix multi-arch cache files: compute the position for the | |
178 | block to be added using info from OrigFile, not NewFile. (plam) | |
179 | Cast results of sizeof() to unsigned int to get rid of | |
180 | warnings on x86_64 (reported by Matthias Clasen). | |
181 | Use FcAtomic to rewrite cache files; don't unlink the fonts.cache-2 | |
182 | file even if there's no data to write; just write an empty cache file. | |
183 | (Reported by Lubos Lunak) | |
184 | Allocate room for the subdirectory names in each directory cache. | |

248 | 2.2.97 | |
249 | ||
250 | Fc-cache sleeps before exiting to ensure filesystem timestamps are well | |
251 | ordered. | |
252 | ||
253 | Added Punjai orthography. | |
254 | ||
255 | The timestamp in fonts.conf is gone now. Too many problems. | |
256 | ||
257 | The default font path includes all of the X fonts; use selectfont/rejectfont | |
258 | to eliminate bitmaps, as shown in the sample local.conf file. | |
259 | ||
260 | <include> configuration elements may now reference a directory. Files | |
261 | in that directory matching [0-9]* are loaded in UTF-8 collating sequence order. | |

289 | 2.2.94 | |
290 | ||
291 | The 2.2.93 release was prepared with a broken libtool which created | |
292 | the shared library without the '.so' in the file names. | |
6ae6acf3 KP |
293 | |
294 | 2.2.93 | |
295 | ||
296 | This is the third prerelease of fontconfig 2.3. Significant changes from | |
297 | 2.2.92 are: | |
298 | ||
299 | o Use new FreeType #include syntax | |
300 | o use y_ppem field instead of 'height' in bitmap sizes rec - | |
301 | FreeType changed the semantics. Still uses height for | |
302 | older versions of FreeType | |
303 | o Don't construct program manuals unless docbook is available | |
304 | ||
305 | 2.2.92 | |
306 | ||
307 | o make distcheck work | |
308 | ||
309 | 2.2.91 | |
310 | ||
311 | o Switch to SGML manuals | |
312 | o Add FC_DUAL width spacing value | |
313 | o Add FcFini to close out fontconfig and release all memory | |
314 | ||
315 | 2.2 | |
2eafe090 | 316 | |
8fc10a72 | 317 | This is the third public release of fontconfig, a font configuration and |
2eafe090 KP |
318 | customization library. Fontconfig is designed to locate fonts within the |
319 | system and select them according to requirements specified by applications. | |
320 | ||
321 | Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a particular | |
322 | rasterization library on the application. The X-specific library | |
323 | 'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and rasterize fonts. | |
