We should be able to bump this package even if we do not bump the rest of GNOME yet.
- Update to version 2.46.0:
+ All of librsvg.so is now implemented in Rust! That is, except
for a very thin wrapper over the public API functions.
Hopefully we can remove this wrapper when Cargo gets some more
features around controlling the linking step. This release
requires at least Rust 1.34.
+ Librsvg now comes with a Rust crate that can be used from Rust
applications. See librsvg_crate/examples. This Rust API is
designed to be idiomatic; if you want a Rust binding to the
shared library instead, please use the "rsvg-rs" crate from
crates.io.
+ The following API functions are new in the C library:
- rsvg_handle_get_intrinsic_dimensions()
- rsvg_handle_render_document()
- rsvg_handle_render_layer()
- rsvg_handle_render_element()
- rsvg_handle_get_geometry_for_layer()
- rsvg_handle_get_geometry_for_element()
- Correspondingly, there is a new chapter in the documentation,
called "Recommendations for Applications". These new APIs
conform better with the web platform's idea of how SVG
sizing/positioning should work. Applications should now find
it easier to scale and render SVGs in a single call, instead
of having to obtain image dimensions first.
+ A bunch of functions have been deprecated but are still
available:
- rsvg_handle_write()/close() are deprecated in favor of the
stream functions. Unfortunately the write()/close() pair
require buffering the entire document, in case it is a .svgz
compressed file; the streaming functions do not have this
problem.
- Functions that return RsvgDimensionData and RsvgPositionData
are deprecated, since they just use integers instead of
floating point numbers. They are replaced with the
_get_geometry_*() functions above.
+ The library is a lot more strict now in terms of detecting that
the API functions are called in the correct order. For example,
calling rsvg_handle_get_dimensions() before rsvg_handle_close()
will now emit a critical warning.
+ Librsvg is gradually moving towards using code from Mozilla's
Servo. We haven't quite gotten rid of libcroco and libxml2 yet,
but this is in progress.
- Update to version 2.45.92:
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#496: Ensure all lengths and angles parse
as finite numbers.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#497: Don't panic on paths with
all-invalid commands.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#500: Added additional SVG blend-modes
for the feBlend filter primitive.
+ Some changes in the build structure to allow for faster builds.
- Update to version 2.45.90:
+ New API functions:
- rsvg_handle_render_document().
- rsvg_handle_render_layer().
- rsvg_handle_render_element().
- rsvg_handle_get_geometry_for_layer().
- rsvg_handle_get_geometry_for_element().
+ CairoRenderer in the librsvg_crate has corresponding functions
as well.
+ Fix builds with gettext ≥ 0.20.
+ If the C API is called out of order, downgrade hard panics to
g_critical() to cope with incorrect/old applications that
called rsvg_handle_get_dimensions() before
rsvg_handle_close().
+ API reference documentation is much improved.
- Update to version 2.45.8:
+ This version requires at least Rust 1.34.
+ Fix build on Rust earlier than 1.36.
+ Update gtk-rs and dependent crates.
- Changes from version 2.45.7:
+ Don't panic if an SVG has character data outside the first
element.
+ Don't panic when there's an xi:include fallback with no parent
element.
+ Fix blurry semi-opaque objects when rendering with a scaled
transformation.
+ Don't ignore the first x/y/dx/dy in text/tspan elements if
there is more than one position specified.
+ In librsvg_crate, SvgHandle now has a ::has_element_with_id()
method.
+ rsvg-convert now catches the case where the SVG has no
dimensions.
+ This version no longer contains the rsvg-view program, so
librsvg no longer depends on GTK.
+ The poly element no longer supports "verts" as an alias for the
"points" attribute. The "verts" name was only used in SVG
pre-1.0, and we had been cargo-culting that name ever since.
+ We now use more machinery from Mozilla Servo, in this case the
markup5ever and rust-selectors crates. This is in line with
gradually replacing libcroco with a Rust-only CSS machinery.
+ Lots and lots of refactoring and cleanups: use the rctree crate
instead of our own tree representation; remove interior
mutability in element structs; make the gradients and patterns
code less repetitive.
+ Update some dependencies.
+ Fix static linking and Windows builds.
- Drop rsvg-view subpackage and pkgconfig(gtk+-3.0) BuildRequires
and obsolete it from main library following upstream changes.
- Add new rsvg-convert subpackage for the convert tool previously
packaged in rsvg-view.
- Update to version 2.45.6:
+ Librsvg now requires Rust 1.30.0 or later.
+ Librsvg now requires Cairo 1.16.0 or later.
+ This version introduces librsvg_crate, an idiomatic Rust crate
for using librsvg from Rust programs directly, without using
GObject machinery. This API is subject to change, but you can
start using it now in an experimental fashion.
+ All of the librsvg internals are now in Rust! The C code is
just a thin wrapper over Rust functions.
+ The internals library has been converted to Rust 2018.
+ Within librsvg_crate, there is a new infrastructure for doing
reftests in Rust, that does not depend on PNG reference files.
See librsvg_crate/tests for details.
+ This release introduces the following new APIs:
- rsvg_handle_get_intrinsic_dimensions(),
- rsvg_handle_get_geometry_for_element().
+ Parsing of the "style" attribute, which has a plain list of CSS
property declarations, is now done with rust-cssparser.
+ CSS selector matching should be marginally faster than before.
+ Fix Visual Studio builds.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#11: Respect the "direction" property for
bidirectional text.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#295: Ensure the initial viewport fits
into temporary surfaces for compositing.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#425: Don't fail parsing if the system's
locale is broken.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#438, glgo#GNOME/librsvg#443: Don't
create intermediate raster surfaces unless absolutely needed.
This was causing blurred output for SVGs from Inkscape and
Illustrator, since they include an "enable-background" property
even when there are no filters in use.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#443: Fix blurry output when
enable-background is used without filters.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#455: Fix rounding error on i386.
+ Check for Cairo errors when constructing paths.
- Update to version 2.45.5:
+ At build time, you can now pass $CARGO and $RUSTC environment
variables if you need to override the default Rust toolchain.
Please see COMPILING.md for details.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#405: In the gdk-pixbuf loader, don't
crash if the write() function doesn't receive a GError.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#268: Remove the comp-op property; it's
not in SVG 1.1 nor SVG 2.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#415: register RsvgHandleFlags and the
RsvgError enum values in a thread-safe fashion.
+ All of the library's non-GObject functionality is implemented
in Rust now.
+ Update the cairo crate.
+ Clean up the loading code paths.
+ Updated compilation docs for Debian.
+ Updated parts of the reference documentation.
- Update to version 2.45.4:
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#402: Fix the library's soname.
- Update to version 2.45.3:
+ Big news! All the real work in the library is now implemented
in Rust. The public API is implemented in C, but most it calls
immediately into the Rust code.
+ rsvg_handle_set_base_uri() now really assumes that it is passed
a URI. Previously it would try to differentiate between real
URIs, and absolute or relative file paths. If this breaks your
code (i.e. you are passing a filename, not a URI), please tell
us so we can restore the old behavior!
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#395: Don't panic in feMorphology if it
ends up with a negative scaling transformation.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#398: Detect circular references in
gradients.
+ Match the Firefox/Chrome behavior on gradients and patterns
with circular references for fallbacks.
+ Fixes for Rust 1.30 and below.
+ Lots and lots of refactoring.
- Changes from version 2.45.2:
+ rsvg_cleaup() is now deprecated. This was only meant to be
called from code to be checked by Valgrind. Leak checkers may
show reachable memory from libxml2; real memory leaks should
still be reported, of course.
+ As an experimental change, librsvg no longer calls
xmlInitParser() from libxml2. Please tell us if this causes
problems for multithreaded programs.
+ Added g_warning()s to ensure the API is called in the correct
sequence.
+ The text handling code has been completely refactored and
simplified. This will allow us to implement the x/y/dx/dy
properties for multiple glyphs in the future. Please report any
problems you experience in text rendering.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#385: Don't crash if there is no
rsvg_handle_write() before rsvg_handle_close().
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#391: Avoid undefined behavior when
casting opaque pointers.
+ Fix crash when a linear RGB filter is followed by an SRGB
filter.
+ Fix glgo#GNOME/librsvg#393: Stack overflow when freeing
thousands of sibling elements.
+ Fix positioning of adjacent <tspan> elements.
+ All the toplevel loading and drawing code is implemented in
Rust now.
+ Pixbuf conversion code is in Rust now.
+ Cleanups in the code for XML processing, markers, attributes.
+ Many build/link fixes.
+ Cleanups in the code that calls libxml2.
- Changes from version 2.45.1:
+ New public API, rsvg_handle_get_geometry_sub(), to get the
exact geometry of an element. The functions
rsvg_handle_get_position_sub() and
rsvg_handle_get_dimensions_sub() are deprecated now; these
returned incomplete data with integer coordinates.
+ rsvg_handle_write() and rsvg_handle_close() are now deprecated
in favor of the functions which use a GInputStream. The former
need to buffer the entire SVG data first; the latter don't need
buffering.
+ Librsvg no longer tries to load XML entities which reference
external resources, either parameter or general entities,
declared in the DTD. This never worked properly, and it is
better to do so via the xi:include mechanism. Also, unparsed
external entities with a notation are not really supported in
SVG; it has its own <image> element and similar for that
purpose. Only internal general entities are supported now, for
example:
- <!ENTITY foo "<some xml here>">.
- <!ENTITY bar "some text here">.
+ Started support for localized error messages.
+ Ported to Rust: loading code, XML processing code, data: URL
parsing.
+ Many code cleanups and refactorings.
+ Fix undefined behavior in casts.
+ Cairo/Rust API updates.
+ configure.ac cleanups.
- Add lang_package macro/subpackage, librsvg now have translations.
- Add a librsvg_sover define and set it to 2.
