template, props Dmitry Smirnov (ticket #147, props John Crisp);
TODO: enable building with the GS1 Syntax Engine;
this involved auditing copyrights which prompted the next item
re "tif.c" and will prompt the next next item "pdf417.c"
tif.c: replaced LZW compression with tree-based one due to
"tif_lzw.h"'s original BSD-TAHOE license which has the equivalent
of the "advertising clause", new implementation (which is much
faster anyway) props Harald Kuhr and Bob Montgomery
pdf417.c: TODO: Replace all code adapted from "pdf417.frm" as it
was released under GPL v2.0 or later
pdf417.h: replace unnecessary "pdf417.frm" references with ISO/IEC
standard as 1st step re above, some expanded comments
general: Codablock-F -> Codablock F (i.e. lose hyphen)
cmake: frontend/frontend_qt: go back to only setting RPATH on macOS
as not Debian compatible and it seems it's not a good idea on
Linux anyway; TODO: check BSD + other Unixes
CLI/GUI: make "--verbose" option official and document
tools/gen_eci_sb_h.php/gen_eci_mb_h.php: add SPDX Unicode-3.0;
update haible.de/bruno tarball info - "GB18030.TXT" no longer in
"jdk-1.4.2/" so mention "libiconv-1.11/" version instead (same)
general: add various SPDXs and normalize some Copyrights
reedsol.c: malloced `logt`/`alog` tables int -> short (slight
performance improvement)
aztec.c: add copyrights, some code fiddling
BWIPP: update to latest
EMF/PCX/PNG/TIF only, i.e. excluding EPS, GIF & SVG)
- Add support for specifying scale by X-dimension and resolution
with new option `--scalexdimdp` for CLI/Tcl & new API function
`ZBarcode_Scale_From_XdimDp()` (+ `ZBarcode_XdimDp_From_Scale()`
& `ZBarcode_Default_Xdim()`) and new GUI popup; manual: document
- BMP/EMF/PCX/PNG/TIF: use new `dpmm` resolution field (for EMF
following Inkscape)
- backend_qt: add `dpmm()`, `vectorWidth()`, `vectorHeight()`,
`noPng()`, `getVersion()`, `takesGS1AIData()`, & `XdimDp` stuff
incl. new `QZintXdimDp` struct for passing around scale vars &
use in `getAsCLI()`; add comments
- Raise `scale` limit to 200 (from 100) to allow for large dpmm
- output: create directories & subdirectories as necessary for
output path using new function `out_fopen()` and use in BMP/EMF/
EPS/GIF/PCX/PNG/SVG/TIF
- DPLEIT/DPIDENT: format HRT according to (incomplete)
documentation, and set default height to 72X (from 50X)
- CODE128B renamed to CODE128AB as can use subsets A and/or B
- CODABAR: fix minimum height calc
- EMF: fix indexing of handles (zero-based not 1-based)
- GUI: fix symbology zap (previous technique of clearing and
re-loading settings without doing a sync no longer works);
fix UPCEAN guard descent enable
- MAILMARK: better error message if input < 14 characters
- GUI: add "Default" button for DAFT tracker ratio & enable/disable
various default buttons; use new `takesGS1AIData()` to
enable/disable GS1-specific checkboxes
- CLI: use new `validate_float()` to parse float options (7
significant digits allowed only, no scientific notation)
- DATAMATRIX/GRIDMATRIX/PDF417/QR/ULTRA: micro-optimize structapp
ID parse
- library/CLI: fiddle with static asserts (make CHAR_BIT sensitive,
supposedly)
- win32/README: update building libpng (assembly removed)
- README.linux: document incompatibility of Qt6 >= 6.3
- manual: expand Barcode Studio waffle
- test suite: change range separator to hyphen and allow multiple
excludes
