The + last snapshot was picked up by the bleeding edge distributions and so the + bug reports have to started to roll in. The most frequent of these are the + introduction of rendering errors by applications that modify a surface + without subsequently calling cairo_surface_mark_dirty(). Make sure the + application developers are aware of increased reliance on strict use of the + Cairo API before 1.10 is released! + + The usual slew of bugs reported and we would like to thank Zoxc for + contributing the WGL interface for cairo-gl, and finding more build + failures on win32. And it just wouldn't be a 1.9 snapshot unless + Benjamin Otte improved the error handling within cairo-gl, as well as + isolating and fixing some more errors in the test suite. The biggest bug of + the snapshot turned out to be a major sign extension issue that had lain + hidden for many years and was suddenly exposed by incorrectly rounding + rectangles when performing non-antialiased rendering. Also to the relief + of many we have included the downstream patch to honour the user's LCD + filtering preferences for subpixel rendering of fonts. The interface + remains private for the time being, whilst the proposed public API is + finalized. + +API changes +----------- + None. + Snapshot 1.9.8 (2010-06-12) =========================== |
