+
+<A NAME="libtiff"><B><FONT SIZE=+3>C</FONT>HANGES IN LIBTIFF:</B></A>
+
+<UL>
+ <li> tiffiop.h, tif_open.c: Added open option 'h' to avoid reading
+ the first IFD when needed. As per bug
+ <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=875">
+ http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=875</a>
+
+ <li> tiff.h: Use correct int size on Sparc 64bit/Sun compiler
+ platform. As per bug
+ <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=855">
+ http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=855</a>
+
+ <li> tif_dirinfo.c: Added support for ClipPath, XClipPathUnits
+ and YClipPathUnits tags.
+
+ <li> tif_dirinfo.c, tif_dir.h, tif_dir.c, tif_print.c: Make
+ DocumentName, Artist, HostComputer, ImageDescription, Make, Model,
+ Copyright, DateTime, PageName, TextureFormat, TextureWrapModes and
+ TargetPrinter tags custom.
+
+ <li> tif_jpeg.c: Cleanup the codec state depending on TIFF_CODERSETUP
+ flag (to fix memory leaks).
+
+ <li> tif_dirwrite.c: Use tdir_count when calling
+ TIFFCvtNativeToIEEEDouble() in the TIFFWriteDoubleArray() function as
+ per bug <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=845">
+ http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=845</a>
+
+ <li> tif_dirinfo.c, tif_print.c: TIFFFetchByteArray() returns
+ uint16 array when fetching the BYTE and SBYTE fields, so we should
+ consider result as pointer to uint16 array and not as array of chars.
+ As per bug
+ <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=831">
+ http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=831</a>
+
+ <li> tif_dir.c: More efficient custom tags retrieval as per bug
+ <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=830">
+ http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=830</a>
+
+ <li> tif_win32.c: Use FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE share
+ mode in CreateFile() call as per bug
+ <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=829">
+ http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=829</a>
+
+ <li> tif_jpeg.c: Substantial fix for addtiffo problems with
+ JPEG encoded TIFF files. Pre-allocate lots of space for jpegtables
+ in directory.
+
+ <li> tif_dirread.c: Changed the code that computes
+ stripbytecount[0] if it appears bogus to ignore if stripoffset[0] is
+ zero. This is a common case with GDAL indicating a "null" tile/strip.
+
+ <li> tif_jpeg.c: added LIB_JPEG_MK1 support in JPEGDecodeRaw().
+
+ <li> tif_dirread.c: Ensure that broken files with too many
+ values in PerSampleShorts, TIFFFetchPerSampleLongs and
+ TIFFFetchPerSampleAnys work ok instead of crashing.
+ <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=843">
+ http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=843</a>
+
+ <li> tif_predict.h, tif_predict.c: Added ability to decode and encode
+ floating point predictor, as per TIFF Technical Note 3.
+ See http://chriscox.org/TIFF_TN3_Draft2.pdf for details.
+
+ <li> tiffio.h, tiffiop.h, tif_dir.c, tif_read.c, tif_swab.c:
+ Added _TIFFSwab24BitData() and TIFFSwabArrayOfLong() functions used to
+ swap 24-bit floating point values.
+
+ <li> tiff.h: Added predictor constants.
+
+ <li> tiffiop.h, tif_dir.c: Use uint32 type for appropriate values
+ in _TIFFVSetField() function. Inspired by the bug
+ <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=816">
+ http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=816</a>
+
+ <li> tif_open.c: Do not read header in case the output file should
+ be truncated (Ron).
+
+ <li> tif_dirinfo.c, tif_config.h.vc: Use lfind() instead of bsearch()
+ in _TIFFFindFieldInfoByName() function (Ron).
+
+ <li> tif_dir.c, tif_print.c: Properly handle all data types in custom
+ tags.
+
+ <li> dirinfo.c: Added DNG tags.
+
+ <li> tiff.h: Added missed DNG tag (LensInfo); added DNG 1.1.0.0 tags.
+
+ <li> tif_dir.c, tif_print.c: Added Support for custom tags, passed
+ by value.

+ http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=844</a>
+
+ <li> ppm2tiff.c: Fixed format string when read PPM file header with
+ the fscanf() function. As per bug
