TIFF CHANGE INFORMATION

​http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff/v4.0.6.html

    Current Version: v4.0.6
...

MAJOR CHANGES:

  • Now builds with CMake 2.8.9 and newer (previously required 3.0.0) 

CHANGES IN THE SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION:

  • CMakeLists.txt / CMake
      ◦ Supports CMake 2.8.9 and later.
      ◦ Add missing file which wasn't being distributed, causing unit
        tests to fail.
      ◦ Make shared/static library building configurable.
      ◦ CMake reads all version information directly from configure.ac
        to avoid duplication of values.
      ◦ CMake builds are now included in 'distcheck' target. 
  • Makefile.am
      ◦ Autotools 'make distcheck' now tests the CMake-based build if
        CMake is available. 

CHANGES IN LIBTIFF:

  • Fixes to avoid undefined behaviour of signed types (C standard
    compliance).
  • Fixes to avoid possible isses when casting to unsigned char.
  • Fixes to avoid undefined behaviour with shifts.
  • Fix generation of output with 16 bit or 32 bit integer, when byte
    swapping is needed, in horizontal predictor (#2521).
  • Fix decoding when there is a single pixel to decode (unlikely
    case...) and byte swapping is involved.
  • Add add explicit masking with 0xff before casting to uchar in
    floating-point horizontal differencing and accumulation routines.
  • Eliminate requirement for and use of 64-bit constant values. 

CHANGES IN THE TOOLS:

  • tiffgt
      ◦ Silence glut API deprecation warnings on MacOS X. 
  • fax2ps
      ◦ Detect failure to write to temporary file. 

CHANGES IN THE CONTRIB AREA:

  • None
