It is desirable to be able to build against older versions of glib.
fd7a245 changed the configure check to require glib > 2.38 for
G_TEST_DIST. Before that, version 2.16 was required, but in fact,
since aafe395, G_PASTE is being used, which was introduced in 2.19.1.
And since 0ef179e2, hb-glib uses GBytes, which were introduced in
2.31.10.
2.19.1 is rather old, but 2.38 is rather new. For Firefox, building
against 2.22 is still supported, although we could probably get away
with bumping that to 2.28. Either way, GBytes is not available.
Arguably, if you build against a glib that doesn't support GBytes,
you're not going to use the hb_glib_blob_create function, so we hide
the function when building against such a glib.
As for G_TEST_DIST, when building against versions of glib that don't
support it, we can fallback to the previous behavior, which, AIUI, was
just making the test not work when building in a separate directory.
Note, the function now returns "half of horizontal advance width"
if top accent attachment for glyph is not explicitly defined.
This is what the spec requires. Updated tests.
The BCP-47 registry defines a variant subtag "fonipa" that can be used
in combination with arbitrary other language tags. For example,
"rm-CH-fonipa-sursilv" indicates the Sursilvan dialect of Romansh
as used in Switzerland, transcribed used the International Phonetic
Alphabet.

Based on test from https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=497578
Currently fails. Basically, if there's a default_ignorable at the
start of text, and font has no space glyph, we remove the default_ignorable,
and that makes the first char in text to correspond to no cluster.
Fix coming.
Previously, when creating an object from inert inputs (eg:
"hb_font_create(hb_face_get_empty())") we returned the inert
empty object. This is not helpful as there are legitimate
usecases to do that.
We now never return the inert object unless allocation failed.
Tests are revised to reflect.
Fail if blob start plus length overflows; or if blob length
is greater than 2GB. It takes a while for fonts to get to that
size. In the mean time, it protects against bugs like this:
http://www.icu-project.org/trac/ticket/11450
Also avoids some weird issues with 32bit vs 64bit systems
as we accept length as unsigned int. As such, a length of
-1 will cause overflow on 32bit machines, but happily
accepted on a 64bit machine. Avoid that.
After 763e5466c0, one doesn't
need to set flags for different pieces of text. The flags now
are something the client sets up once, depending on how it
actually uses the buffer. As such, don't clear it in
clear_contents().
Tests updated.
With this change, we now by default replace broken UTF-8/16/32 bits
with U+FFFD. This can be changed by calling new API on the buffer.
Previously the replacement value used to be (hb_codepoint_t)-1.
Note that hb_buffer_clear_contents() does NOT reset the replacement
character.
See discussion here:
6f13b6d62d
New API:
hb_buffer_set_replacement_codepoint()
hb_buffer_get_replacement_codepoint()
HB_VERSION_CHECK's comparison was originally written wrongly
by mistake. When API tests were written, they were also written
wrongly to pass given the wrong implementation... Sigh.
Given the purpose of this API, there's no point in fixing it
without renaming it. As such, rename.
API changes:
HB_VERSION_CHECK -> HB_VERSION_ATLEAST
hb_version_check -> hb_version_atleast
