+
+
+
+
+
+This document describes the changes made to the software between the

+The following information is located here:
+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN THE SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION:
+
+
+
+ - configure: added test for libc6 for linux targets. Bug reported by
+ Stanislav Brabec
+
+
- configure: fixed bugs in sed scripts
+ (applied sed script s:/@:s;@:;s:/s;;:;: to configure).
+ fix submitted by Stanislav Brabec
+
+
- tools/iptcutil was not in files list, and wasn't being
+ added to tar archive. Updated Makefile.in.
+
+
- Added 3.5 docs to html/Makefile.in.
+ Thanks to Stanislav Brabec
+
+
- Fixed tools/tiffcmp so that stopondiff testing works.
+ Patch care of Joseph Orost .
+
+
- Added fax3sm_winnt.c to distribution list in Makefile.in.
+
+
- Added libtiff/libtiff.def to TIFFILES distribution list.
+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN LIBTIFF:
+
+
+
+ - tif_fax3.c: Fixed serious bug introduced during the uint16->uint32
+ conversion for the run arrays.
+
+
- Set td_sampleformat default to SAMPLEFORMAT_UINT instead of
+ SAMPLEFORMAT_VOID in TIFFDefaultDirectory() in tif_dir.c.
+
+
- Added "GetDefaulted" support for TIFFTAG_SAMPLEFORMAT in tif_aux.c.
+
+
- Patched tif_fax3.c so that dsp->runs is allocated a bit bigger
+ to avoid overruns encountered with frle_bug.tif.
+
+
+
- Modified tif_unix.c to support 2-4GB seeks if USE_64BIT_API is
+ set to 1, and added default (off) setting in tiffconf.h. This
+ should eventually be set by the configure script somehow.
+
+ The original work on all these 2-4GB changes was done by
+ Peter Smith (psmith@creo.com).
+
+
- Modified tif_win32.c to support 2-4GB seeks.
+
+
- tentatively changed toff_t to be unsigned instead of signed to
+ facilitate support for 2-4GB files.
+
+
- Updated a variety of files to use toff_t. Fixed some mixups
+ between toff_t and tsize_t.
+
+
- Set tif_rawdatasize to zero when freeing raw data buffer in
+ TIFFWriteDirectory().
+
+
- Enabled "REWRITE_HACK" in tif_write.c by default.
+
+
- Fix bug in tif_write.c when switching between reading one directory
+ and writing to another.
+
+
- Made TIFFWriteCheck() public, and added TIFFCreateDirectory()
+
+
- Added TIFFmemory(3t) functions to libtiff.def.
+
+
- Added libtiff/libtiff.def to TIFFILES distribution list.
+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN THE TOOLS:
+
+
+ - fax2ps: Fixed mixup of width and height in bounding box statement
+ as per submission by Nalin Dahyabhai .
+
+
- fax2ps: Modified printruns to take uint32 instead of uint16.
+ Patch courtesy of Bernt Herd
+
+
+
- Largely reimplemented contrib/addtiffo to avoid temp files,
+ updating the TIFF file in place. Fixed a few other bugs to.
+
+
- Altered descriptions in tools to reflect "by default" lzw not supported
+
+
+
+
+CHANGES IN THE LZW COMPRESSION KIT
+
+ - created mangle-src.sh -- sed scripts to munge src into LZW enabled format. Thanks to Stanislav Brabec
+
+
- created Makefile
+
+
- merged tif_dir.c with current source.
+
+
+
- Created lzw compression kit, as a new CVS module (libtiff-lzw-compression-kit).
