  65. <A NAME="libtiff"><B><FONT SIZE=+3>C</FONT>HANGES IN LIBTIFF:</B></A>
  66. <UL>
  67. <li> tiffiop.h, tif_open.c: Added open option 'h' to avoid reading
  68. the first IFD when needed. As per bug
  69. <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=875">
  70. http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=875</a>
  71. <li> tiff.h: Use correct int size on Sparc 64bit/Sun compiler
  72. platform. As per bug
  73. <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=855">
  74. http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=855</a>
  75. <li> tif_dirinfo.c: Added support for ClipPath, XClipPathUnits
  76. and YClipPathUnits tags.
  77. <li> tif_dirinfo.c, tif_dir.h, tif_dir.c, tif_print.c: Make
  78. DocumentName, Artist, HostComputer, ImageDescription, Make, Model,
  79. Copyright, DateTime, PageName, TextureFormat, TextureWrapModes and
  80. TargetPrinter tags custom.
  81. <li> tif_jpeg.c: Cleanup the codec state depending on TIFF_CODERSETUP
  82. flag (to fix memory leaks).
  83. <li> tif_dirwrite.c: Use tdir_count when calling
  84. TIFFCvtNativeToIEEEDouble() in the TIFFWriteDoubleArray() function as
  85. per bug <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=845">
  86. http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=845</a>
  87. <li> tif_dirinfo.c, tif_print.c: TIFFFetchByteArray() returns
  88. uint16 array when fetching the BYTE and SBYTE fields, so we should
  89. consider result as pointer to uint16 array and not as array of chars.
  90. As per bug
  91. <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=831">
  92. http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=831</a>

  95. http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=830</a>
  96. <li> tif_win32.c: Use FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE share
  97. mode in CreateFile() call as per bug
  98. <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=829">
  99. http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=829</a>
  100. <li> tif_jpeg.c: Substantial fix for addtiffo problems with
  101. JPEG encoded TIFF files. Pre-allocate lots of space for jpegtables
  102. in directory.
  103. <li> tif_dirread.c: Changed the code that computes
  104. stripbytecount[0] if it appears bogus to ignore if stripoffset[0] is
  105. zero. This is a common case with GDAL indicating a "null" tile/strip.
  106. <li> tif_jpeg.c: added LIB_JPEG_MK1 support in JPEGDecodeRaw().
  107. <li> tif_dirread.c: Ensure that broken files with too many
  108. values in PerSampleShorts, TIFFFetchPerSampleLongs and
  109. TIFFFetchPerSampleAnys work ok instead of crashing.
  110. <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=843">
  111. http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=843</a>
  112. <li> tif_predict.h, tif_predict.c: Added ability to decode and encode

  116. Added _TIFFSwab24BitData() and TIFFSwabArrayOfLong() functions used to
  117. swap 24-bit floating point values.
  118. <li> tiff.h: Added predictor constants.
  119. <li> tiffiop.h, tif_dir.c: Use uint32 type for appropriate values
  120. in _TIFFVSetField() function. Inspired by the bug
  121. <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=816">
  122. http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=816</a>
  123. <li> tif_open.c: Do not read header in case the output file should
  124. be truncated (Ron).
  125. <li> tif_dirinfo.c, tif_config.h.vc: Use lfind() instead of bsearch()
  126. in _TIFFFindFieldInfoByName() function (Ron).
  127. <li> tif_dir.c, tif_print.c: Properly handle all data types in custom
  128. tags.

  139. <li> tiff2pdf.c: Print two characters per loop in the
  140. t2p_write_pdf_trailer(). As per bug
  141. <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=594">
  142. http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=594</a>
  143. <li> tiffgt.c: Use MacOS X OpenGL framework when appropriate. As
