-Libpng 1.2.1 - December 12, 2001
+Libpng 1.2.6 - August 15, 2004
This is a public release of libpng, intended for use in production codes.
-Changes since the last public release (1.2.0):
+Changes since the last public release (1.2.5):
- Revised makefile.std in contrib/pngminus
- Include background_1 in png_struct regardless of gamma support.
- Revised makefile.netbsd and makefile.macosx, added makefile.darwin.
- Revised example.c to provide more details about using row_callback().
- Added makefile.so9.
- Removed type casts from all NULLs, except for those appearing in function
- calls when PNG_NO_TYPECAST_NULL is defined.
- Simplified png_create_info_struct() and png_creat_struct_2().
- Added error message if png_write_info() was omitted.
- Changed typecast of "size" argument to png_size_t in pngmem.c calls to
- the user malloc_fn, to agree with the prototype in png.h
- Added a pop/push operation to pnggccrd.c, to preserve Eflag (Maxim Sobolev)
- Updated makefile.sgi to recognize LIBPATH and INCPATH.
- Updated various makefiles so "make clean" does not remove previous major
- version of the shared library.
- Added a pop/push operation to pngvcrd.c, to preserve Eflag.
- Always allocate 256-entry internal palette, hist, and trans arrays, to
- avoid out-of-bounds memory reference caused by invalid PNG datastreams.
- Added a check for prefix_length > data_length in iCCP chunk handler.

+ Used proper type png_fixed_point, to avoid problems on 16-bit platforms,
+ in png_handle_sRGB() (Cosmin).
+ Added compression_type to png_struct, and optimized the window size
+ inside the deflate stream (Cosmin).
+ Fixed definition of isnonalpha(), in pngerror.c and pngrutil.c (Cosmin).
+ Fixed handling of unknown chunks that come after IDAT (Cosmin).
+ Allowed png_error() and png_warning() to work even if png_ptr == NULL
+ (Cosmin).
+ Replaced row_info->rowbytes with row_bytes in png_write_find_filter()
+ (Cosmin).
+ Fixed definition of PNG_LIBPNG_VER_DLLNUM (Simon-Pierre).
+ Used PNG_LIBPNG_VER and PNG_LIBPNG_VER_STRING instead of the hardcoded
+ values in png.c (Simon-Pierre, Cosmin).
+ Initialized png_libpng_ver[] with PNG_LIBPNG_VER_STRING (Simon-Pierre).
+ Replaced PNG_LIBPNG_VER_MAJOR with PNG_LIBPNG_VER_DLLNUM in png.rc
+ (Simon-Pierre).
+ Moved the definition of PNG_HEADER_VERSION_STRING near the definitions
+ of the other PNG_LIBPNG_VER_... symbols in png.h (Cosmin).
+ Relocated #ifndef PNGAPI guards in pngconf.h (Simon-Pierre, Cosmin).
+ Updated scripts/makefile.vc(a)win32 (Cosmin).
+ Updated the MSVC project (Simon-Pierre, Cosmin).
+ Updated the Borland C++ Builder project (Cosmin).
+ Avoided access to asm_flags in pngvcrd.c, if PNG_1_0_X is defined (Cosmin).
+ Commented out warning about uninitialized mmx_support in pngvcrd.c (Cosmin).
+ Removed scripts/makefile.bd32 and scripts/pngdef.pas (Cosmin).
