Evas-1.1.1: changelog

2011-01-29 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

1.0.0 release

2011-01-29 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Enabled mempool for object allocation
* Allow shorter pre-render handler for rect objects if they are
 invisible

2011-01-30 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* It's actually a merge from my local branch upstream so this
 includes many changes.
* Fixed cursor/selection handling with BiDi text.
* Fixed many BiDi issues in both textblock and text objects.
* Cleaned up textblock and font engine a lot.
* Added auto-alignment to tetxblock and text objects.
* Added mixedwrap (word wrap, and if a word is too big cut it) support
 to textblock.
* Renamed a lot of stuff.
* Made textblock faster, mostly by saving item sizes and caching
 layout items when text doesn't change.
* Added harfbuzz (ot layouting/shaping and etc) support.
* Currently you need to set the env var EVAS_USE_OT to '1' in order to
 use OT support (harfbuzz) that will change soon.
* More code cleanups will be coming in the future. This shipment is
 mostly to get code review started (and also make sure I don't have a
 merging hell later on).

2011-01-31 ChunEon Park

* Fix lurking free bug in key grabs.

2011-02-01 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Added WBMP loader thanks to Samsung.

2011-02-01 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Started using string objects instead of strings in most of the
 font engine (everywhere except draw). Haven't removed the
 paramteres yet, but did mark them as UNUSED. Removing them will be
 part of a future change.
* Removed run-time OT toggling support, OT is now fast, no need for that.
* Renamed all of the intl_props->text_props (because it really
 changed purpose
* Fixed spliting/merging of text_props to be fast and good, not
 hacky and complex like before.
* Added "mirrored mode" to table object.

2011-02-07 Brett Nash (nash@nash.id.au)

* Proxy Objects; Now you can set an image to have a 'source' of
 another object. The proxy will display the object as well. Proxy
 objects should be mostly complete.
* Proxy objects should be complete; please report and bugs to me.
* Partial support for arbitrary clipping. Final support coming soon
 (with some other changes). You can set most objects as a clip on
 other objects. This will use the alpha channel of the object as a
 clip on the object. This is still buggy.
 * CLIPPING DISABLED AND REMOVED DUE TO BEING TOO BUGGY AND INCOMPLETE *
* Software support for arbitrary maps. So you can use any size map
 (not just 4 points) for maps. Once again this is a little buggy.
 * ARBITRARY MAPS DISABLED AND REMOVED DUE TO BEING TOO BUGGY AND INCOMPLETE *

2011-02-02 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* GL engine gets a speculative texture cache to shadow the
 normal image cache to avoid excess texture uploads when
 cycling images often. Should improve performance in some
 cases.

2011-02-12 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Fix "ridiculous scaling size" bug, where scaling images to
 sizes like 1 billion pixels high or wide caused evas to try
 allocate scaletables on the stack and the stack just couldn't
 handle it. Now it only allocates a table for the visible
 region which will always be sane, and even has insanity
 checks now. At worst you'll get an unrendered image if the
 values are silly and some slowness. No crashes.

2011-02-13 Brett Nash (nash@nash.id.au)

* Fix crash when deleting proxies. This _technically_ breaks
 evas engines which realloc engine data when a border is set.
 Practically no engines do this. There is a comment there (and
 if the engine does that border set won't work), in which case
 a more complex work-around is possible.

2011-02-14 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Added a newline character mode API to textblock. This lets us set
 the newline behavior to either normal (i.e only break a line, not
 a paragraph) to "behave as a PS" mode. Default is the latter.
 The former is the more correct approach but I guess everything else
 is in e is not yet ready to use it. These API should help with the
 transition.
* A lot of textblock speed improvements and reduced memory footprint.

2011-02-16 Jeonghyun Yun

* Patch from Jeonghyun Yun <jh0506.yun@samsung.com> that
 improves BMP loader support to handle malformed RLE BMP's that
 encode more pixels per line than the image actuall has.

2011-02-16 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Dropped Evas_Encoding and moved to use Eina_unicode_utf8 instead.
* Started showing the unicode replacement character instead of missing
 glyphs.

2011-02-20 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Fix bug in font string parsing that can result in a crash if a
 font element is long enough.
* Fix convert rgba8888 -> a8 bug so it wont crash.

2011-02-21 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Fixed bug with memory access of old utf8 string when
 comparing prev and cur state with text obj.

2011-02-22 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Fixed a bug in textblock cursor position with empty textblocks.

2011-02-22 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Fixed bug smart calc array where it'd nuke the array when nested
 process calls happen and leave some objects uncalculated, but
 removed from the array and marked as needing a calc thus never
 getting back into the array.

2011-02-27 Vincent Torri

* Fixed static linking of the bmp, wbmp and tga loaders

2011-03-07 Mike Blumenkrantz

 * Fix segv when trying to set gl viewpoint with NULL ctx

2011-03-08 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Fix problem with different x vsync api between SGI and EXT flavor
 as they have the same base name, but different prototypes
 * Add evas_object_ref() and evas_object_unref() to defer
 deletion of objects until all references are removed

2011-03-09 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Fix bug with evas_object_del() calling DEL callback BEFORE
 the HIDE one.

2011-03-10 Sung W. Park

* Fix bug with yinvert handling of native surfaces.

2011-03-10 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Fix issue with loading alpha BMP's with "check if all pixel alpha
 are 0 or not and then force alpha off if all are 0". This
 means you can never have a 100% empty/transparent BMP though
 in 32bpp mode.

2011-03-11 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Add ICO loader to evas (also can load CUR cursor files in theory)

2011-03-14 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Add "load from memory" API: evas_object_image_memfile_set() by
 popular demand. Can load an image format from a memory address.

2011-03-15 Cedric BAIL

* Fix issues with clipping and map.

2011-03-18 Jiyoun Park

* Fix wrong call to free when using mempool for Evas_Object.

2011-03-19 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Caching and timestamp checker for image files made much more
 pedantic and it checks not just modified timestamp but also
 inode number, size, and on linux, the nanonsecond resolution
 timestamp as well.

2011-03-19 Brett Nash (nash)

* Proxy: Bypass the clip on smart clipped objects. This is probably
what you want if you are using proxies, as it means clips don't cause
the object to be invisible by the proxy.

2011-03-22 Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri (k-s)

* Fix build of GL and static modules.
* Fix ico loader static build.

2011-03-30 Tom Hacohen (TAsn) and Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Added vertical alignment support to textblock.
 API: evas_object_textblock_valign_set/get

2011-04-04 Sung W. Park

* Added Evas OpenGL interface to be able to get an OpenGL API for
 rendering to image objects. This is the beginning so not
 totally functional yet.

2011-04-05 Cedric Bail

* Remove Evas Quartz backend.
* Remove Evas Cairo backend.
* Remove Evas Qtopia backend.
* Remove Evas Xrender backend.

2011-04-06 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Fix bug in GL engine with someone stealing the GLX context away
 as well as scissor clips when rotated output is not 0 (90, 180, 270).

2011-04-07 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Textblock: Major speed improvements.
* Textblock: Only relayout and remake paragraphs that have actually
 changed. This means we are a lot faster than before, especially with
 long texts.

2011-04-10 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Textblock: Fixed a bug in evas_object_textblock_text_markup_prepend
 that caused it to use the object's cursor instead of the cursor
 passed.

2011-04-11 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Feature: Text & Textblock - Add 8 explicit shadow directions for
 text style effects.

2011-04-12 Myoungwoon Roy Kim (roy_kim)

* Font-engine: Added runtime italic (actually slanting) and
 emboldening. - Automatically slants/emboldens a font at runtime if
 italic/bold/crusiva and etc are requested but not found in the
 system.

2011-04-14 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Font-engine: Implemented higher level override API for the bidi
 functions. This implements clause HL4 of the bidi algorithm.
 This is very cool actually, it lets us to force-separate paragraphs
 so each part will get his bidi calculated on it's own. This is very
 useful for "to" field of email/sms applications where ',' is used to
 separate different text entities.

2011-04-19 Brett Nash (nash)

* Filters: So filtering of various flavours. They work only on images
 (use a proxy if you want it on other objects). Documentation inline.
 Supports a filter object or filter under (the area where the object
 is filtered). Various parameters to tweak, and potential for
 additional filters (but you get to write the shader ;-)
 * FILTERS DISABLED AND REMOVED DUE TO BEING TOO BUGGY AND INCOMPLETE *

2011-04-24 Thierry el Borgi

* Add PSD file format support.

2011-04-26 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Added "generic" image loader that can just execute some command
 to load any given file format and read the RGBA data as stdout
 from the command, or from an intermediate temporary file or
 shared memory segment the executable loader provides. Evas
 doesn't care about the loader beyond it providing output via
 stdout to define image parameters (size, alpha channel and data
 information), and evas will call a specific loader binary
 based on extension name of srouce file. This allows for evas to
 load image data from files where the loader may be prone to
 instability, or require use of libraries that are GPL or
 otherwise undesirable in terms of the result to applications
 using evas. So basically, if you want a GPL loader or have a
 very unstable one, write a loader binary and call it
 evas_image_loader.extension e.g. evas_image_loader.pdf or
 evas_image_loader.xcf or evas_image_loader.xcf.gz etc. etc.

2011-04-28 Shilpaonkar Singh

* Textblock: Add "password" tag to turn on/off password in the middle
 of the textblok. Especially useful for implementing "show last char"
 for password entries.

2011-05-04 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Improved table layout for homogenous mode to handle not column
 or row multiple sized table better.

2011-05-04 Jiyoun Park

* OpenGL binary shader ability to cache (save and load back
 later) to avoid re-compiling shaders on every time an app starts and
 uses the GL engine. Faster startup time.

2011-05-04 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Textblock: Do standard compliant line breaks. In order to achieve
 that we now statically link against liblinebreak (available in
 src/static_deps/liblinebreak). It's usage can be disabled using the
 configure flag: "--disable-liblinebreak"; Disabling it will activate
 the fallback line breaking methods which are not very correct, but
 are possibly faster. I haven't noticed any difference between the
 two speed-wise, but there probably are in some rare cases.

2011-05-06 Cedric Bail

* Don't try all image loader when user is pointing them on a directory.

2011-05-11 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Fix problem with Evas engine not calling pre/post swap functions
 in the GL engine when using EGL/OpenGL-ES2
 * Fix SVG loader 2 phase loader having differing scale down code
 for first and 2nd phase. Resulted in crash when loading some SVGs

2011-05-11 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Textblock: Added evas_textblock_node_format_list_get. This is very
 useful for edje_entry that uses anchors in the text.

2011-05-12 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Add smart instance usage count get function for ability to free
 data from memory from a smart class if needed.

2011-05-12 Brian Wang

* Textblock: fix segfault with evas_textblock_cursor_content_get

2011-05-12 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Add a smart "Grid" layout object that lays out objects in a regular
 "virtual resolution" grid (eg 100x100) so you can lay them out
 as a "scaled percentage" of the virtual resolution. virtual
 resolution is defineable as is the geometry of each member.

2011-05-18 Sung W. Park

* Fix some internal stencil and depth requests for OpenGL-ES2
 due to OpenGL-ES limitations.
 * Fix Surface recreation for FBO in Evas GL support.

 rows or columns that have any child spanning that column not
 able to expand.
 * Fix Evas table to use actual fractional weights, not just
 boolean expand/not expand from weight value.

2011-05-27 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Add evas_event_thaw_eval() for conveneince of evaluating in state
 and callbacks of the pointer after a thaw is complete.

2011-05-29 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Font-engine: Fixed a bug in glyph search causing inconsistent return
 values. The found fi should always be NULL if there was no fi found.

2011-05-29 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Font-engine: Conform to the API changes in Harfbuzz 0.6.0

2011-05-29 Raoul Hecky

2011-06-01 Cedric Bail

* Add +evas_object_image_extension_can_load_get and
evas_object_image_extension_can_load_fast_get that check if a file
may be opened by Evas_Object_Image.

2011-06-07 Cedric Bail

* Use Eina_File for JPEG loader.
* Add evas_object_image_load_orientation_get and evas_object_image_load_orientation_set,
that tell if we should honor the orientation information when loading image file.

2011-06-17 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

* Allow evas table to re-pack the same object without error and just
 update packing parameters
 * Allow to get packing location of table child

2011-06-28 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Polygon: Implemented "is_inside".

2011-07-05 Hyoyoung Chang

2011-07-07 Cedric Bail

* Fix infite loop when reinserting object during recalc stage.

2011-07-27 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Textblock: Closing tags formats is now well-defined for complex
 formats.
 For example: <font=Sans font_size=23 color=#FFF> should now be
 closed with (or, like before, with the generic poper).
* Textblock: Add support for out-of-order tag openers/closers.
 Markup sequences like are now legal and work as
 expeceted.

2011-07-28 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Textblock: Added support for quoting format parameters.
 Formats like: <font='Sans' color='#FFF'> are now legal.
* Textblock: Added font_weight and font_style formats.
 These format allow overriding the font style set using:
 font=':style=Bold'.

2011-07-31 Tom Hacohen (TAsn)

* Textblock: Added font_width.
 This allows overriding the font width set using:
 font=':style=Condensed'

Tag changes:
- dashed is a legal value for underline
New tags:
- underline_dash_color
- underline_dash_width
- underline_dash_gap

2011-10-21 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

 size is from evas.

2011-10-27 ChunEon Park (Hermet)

* Add evas_object_freeze_events_set/get to discard the object events.
they will be useful some cases such as transition.

2011-11-02 Nicolas Aguirre
* Add gl_cocoa engine

2011-11-16 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

 * JPEG encode and decode in eet now uses ISLOW (not IFAST) due to
 noticable quality losses in the chase for speed. It will use
 IFAST for quality less than 60 when encoding

2011-11-20 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

 * TGA loader gets fixed alpha decode - real life tga's have
 proper alpha values. also reduce false positive tga file
 detection

2011-11-24 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

 because it check event id using global value. change callback
 function can get original event id.

2011-12-20 Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman)

 * Fix clip bug that shows up in buffer engine
 * Fix SSE3 routines with buggy output - disable

2011-12-21 ChunEon Park (Hermet)
