Some more measurable speedup. The recent commits' speedups are as follows:
Testing with Roboto, ****when disabling kern and liga****:
Before:
FT --features=-kern,-liga
user↦ 0m0.521s
OT --features=-liga,-kern
user↦ 0m0.568s
After:
FT --features=-liga,-kern
user↦ 0m0.428s
OT --features=-liga,-kern
user↦ 0m0.470s
So, 17% speedup.
Note that FT callbacks are faster than OT these days since we added an advance
cache to FT. I don't think the difference is enough to justify adding a cache
to OT.
When not disabling kern, the thing is three times slower, so the speedups
are three times less impressive... Still, 5% not bad for a codebase that I
otherwise thought is optimized out.
Note that, because of this and other optimiztions in our main shaper,
disabling kern and liga, the OT shaper is now *faster* than the fallback
shaper. So, that's my recommendation to clients that need the absolute
fastest...
This reverts commit 5daf3bd449.
If other atexit callbacks try to destruct the objects we destruct
in atexit callbacks, bad things will happen.
I'll come up with some other way to catch premature destruction
of HB-owned objects.
Fixes https://github.com/behdad/harfbuzz/issues/618
When the font size or variations settings on underlying FT_Face change,
one can call hb_ft_font_changed() and continue using hb_font created using
hb_ft_font_create().
Fixes https://github.com/behdad/harfbuzz/issues/559
New API:
hb_ft_font_changed()
This one:
map->mask = (1 << (next_bit + bits_needed)) - (1 << next_bit);
before the fix, the shift was done as an int, causing overflow
if it ever got to 1 << 31. Sprinkle 'u's around.
Fixes https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=634805
Prior to this change the function `FT_Error FT_Done_Face(FT_Face *)` was
called through a pointer with the signature `void (void *)` resulting in
undefined behaviour.
New API:
- hb_font_get_nominal_glyph_func_t
- hb_font_get_variation_glyph_func_t
- hb_font_funcs_set_nominal_glyph_func()
- hb_font_funcs_set_variation_glyph_func()
- hb_font_get_nominal_glyph()
- hb_font_get_variation_glyph()
Deprecated API:
- hb_font_get_glyph_func_t
- hb_font_funcs_set_glyph_func()
Clients that implement their own font-funcs are encouraged to replace
their get_glyph() implementation with a get_nominal_glyph() and
get_variation_glyph() pair. The variation version can assume that
variation_selector argument is not zero.
