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.
* 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.
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 "rediculous 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 hapen 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 ;-)
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 undesireable 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.
