Use filenames to clean cache files for current architecture only. This is
sufficient as cache files live in their own directory where filenames are
under fontconfig control.
Our build system barfs on autogen.sh, which ignores --noconfigure. Configure
needs a host of options to make the cross compile work in our case.
Fix typo in fccache.c
FcStrCanonFileName checks whether s[0] == '/', and recurses if not.
This only works on POSIX. On dos, this crashes with a stack overflow.
The patch attached splits this functionality in two functions
(FcStrCanonAbsoluteFilename) and uses GetFullPathName on windows to get an
absolute path. It also fixes a number of other issues. With this patch,
LilyPond actually produces output on Windows.
Instead of attempting to track exported symbols manually in
fontconfig.def.in, build it directly from the public fontconfig header files
to ensure it exports the public API.
With the cache restructuring of 2.4.0, the ability to add
application-specific font files and directories was accidentally lost.
Reimplement this using by sharing the logic used to load configured font
directories.
Looks like the last directory in the project which didn't use $(WARN_CFLAGS)
for some reason. Adding that found the usual collection of char * vs FcChar8
* issues (why, oh why is FcChar8 not just char...)
Most of the remaining elements in fonts.conf have been moved to separate
files. The numbering scheme for conf.d files has been documented in the
README and the files have been renumbered. Config files have been
validated against the DTD and a few minor errors fixed.
All caches used in the application must be in the cache reference list so
internal references can be tracked correctly. Failing to have newly created
caches in the list would cause the cache to be deallocated while references
were still present.
Locale environment variables (LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, LANG) must contain language,
and may contain territory and encoding. Don't accidentally require territory
as that will cause fontconfig to fall back to 'en'.
makealias was using a gnu-extension to sed addressing, replace that with a
simple (and more robuse) grep command. Also, found a bug in the public
header file that was leaving one symbol out of the process.
The existing loop for discovering which characters map to glyphs is ugly and
inefficient. The replacement is functionally identical, but far cleaner and
faster.
Charset hashing actually use the value of the leaf pointers, which is
clearly wrong, especially now that charsets are not shared across multiple
font directories.
Using a simple shell script that processes the public headers, two header
files are constructed that map public symbols to hidden internal aliases
avoiding the assocated PLT entry for referring to a public symbol.
A few mistakes in the FcPrivate/FcPublic annotations were also discovered
through this process
Eliminate need to reference cache object once per cached font, instead
just count the number of fonts used from the cache and bump the reference
count once by that amount. I think this makes this refernece technique
efficient enough for use.
Caches contain patterns and character sets which are reference counted and
visible to applications. Reference count the underlying cache object so that
it stays around until all reference objects are no longer in use.
This is less efficient than just leaving all caches around forever, but does
avoid eternal size increases in case applications ever bother to actually
look for changes in the font configuration.
Without reference counting on cache objects, there's no way to know when
an application is finished using objects pulled from the cache. Until some
kinf of cache reference counting can be done, leave all cache objects mapped
for the life of the library (until FcFini is called). To mitigate the cost
of this, ensure that each instance of a cache file is mapped only once.
Borrowing header stuff written for cairo, fontconfig now exposes in the
shared library only the symbols which are included in the public header
files. All private symbols are hidden using suitable compiler directives.
A few new public functions were required for the fontconfig utility programs
(fc-cat and fc-cache) so those were added, bumping the .so minor version number
in the process.
