So, some grammar/spelling errors might have -made their way into this document. You've been warned. - -Alessandro Gatti - -*** **** *** - -20021208 0.7.3 - -Fixed a typo in the python source and updated the documentation. - -20021207 0.7.2 - -The perl script for the assembler include generation was replaced with a -plain shell script in order to overcome the remote possibility of perl -not being installed on the system TinyPTC gets built on. Now TinyPTC can -be built as a python extension by using the excellent SWIG package, just -use the 'python' target of the makefile and look at python_test.py. - -20020706 0.7.1 - -Kevin Nickels (knickels@users.sourceforge.net) sent a patch for the BGR888 -converter that fixes the colour order on little endian platforms in the xlib -target. A minor error in the documentation has been corrected, and the MMX -assembly include file builder perl script has been slightly cleaned up. - -20020517 0.7 - -Fred Howell wrote the XVideo target handling code and was kind enough to send -it in order to have that included in the major next release of TinyPTC/x11. It -has been tested both on NVidia-based cards with their binary-only drivers, on -ATI-based cards, and with Matrox-based ones, all of them under XFree 4.x. The -XVideo target features realtime scaling on the windowed output (fullscreen -support will be added on a later stage...), with a lightning fast MMX converter -from RGB to YV12. Make sure to check it out! - -20011103 0.6.1 - -Version 0.6.0 was entirely done during one long coding night, so a few bugs -were present. Anyway, I made the C functions callable by C++ as well (tested -with g++), the example configuration file now has some enabled #defines that -let the example work flawlessly (otherwise it won't run if you haven't got -low-res modes defined in your X configuration. I've got them in, that's why I -didn't notice that...). Then, g++ complained on a few targets for some -duplicated variable definition. That's funny, gcc didn't complain. By the way, -I also tested the whole package with GCC 3.0.1, and it works fine. So, this is -mostly a "cleaned up" version. - -20011102 0.6.0 - -After nine months, I found the time to work again on TinyPTC/X11. Big changes -this time... First of all, now TinyPTC/X11 is released under the LGPL license, -then I (finally) added DGA 2.0 support, although its heuristic stuff for best -videodepth choice isn't tested at all, since my hardware supports 32bpp -natively (if it doesn't work, please tell me, so I can attempt to fix the -problem). Then, I splitted all the various targets in a source/header pair of -their own, in order to improve manteniability and easy new targets addition. -Currently you compile and link all the various targets even if you use only -one of them but don't worry, because with some kind of #define magic and a fair -job done by strip, the executable size won't grow at all. The makefile has been -reworked in order to use automated dependencies and for generate automatically -the NASM includefile for mmx.s from mmx.h. Then, I had to change a variable -name in the supplied example due to clashes with a function with the same name. -Oh, I also added DBE support, if you need it. Of course the documentation has -been updated and the makefile now creates a static library called libtinyptc.a -that can be included in your own programs without having to recompile tinyptc -all the time. Have fun!. - -20010206 0.5.1 - -The makefile now contains a different optimization flag, now the executable is -a bit smaller (at least on my box). I updated the documentation, too (I forgot -to add the __PTC_MEMCPY__ #define). Added a cleanup callback function, in order -to let it be a bit more programmer-friendly. Now you can use PTC_SUCCESS and -PTC_FAILURE in order to check the results of the TinyPTC functions you call. -Documentation now contains NetBSD compilation workaround. - -20001027 0.5 - -The mmx converters were added and the makefile was cleaned up in order to be -a bit more flexible and to support the external assembler code. I left out a -debug fprintf somewhere in the DGA code, now it's just history. The -documentation was updated, too. Nothing more to say, over and out. - -20001306 0.4 - -Bugs are calling... And we're supposed to fix them. There was a glitch in the -32bpp->15bpp conversion code, thanks to tolemaC/Elerium Core for the bug -report. Now the 24bpp conversion modules should work for big-endian machines as -well. Try them if you've got such a system and then tell us. - -20000531 0.3.1 - -Sometimes, fixing a bug, brings another one in. Well, now the only thing that -worked was the 32bpp code. Strange, isn't it ? ;) Anyway, this is fixed now. - -20000527 0.3 - -TinyPTC was developed again after a little pause. Great news this time... I -added color conversion and it seems to work quite well, too. It's rather slow -but I think that some compiler optimizations can speed it up a bit as well. If -it's still too slow for you, feel free to write your own converters and submit -them to Gaffer =) As an added bonus, the 24-32 bpp dilemma seems to be -disappeared... Maybe it's fixed, try and see. Tell me if there's something that -doesn't work. - -20000508 0.2 - -TinyPTC was rewritten from scratch (literally), now the sources are easier to -read and I threw some comment in, too. The XShm support is finished and seems -to work. Tell me if I'm wrong about that. The DGA part wasn't working properly, -it blarfed on the fullscreen-emulation blit code, now it works again. I also -added a 'best-fit' videomode switch logic for fullscreen-emulation code. - -20000505 0.1.1 - -Some kind of preliminary XShm support is now included. There wasn't an UID -check for DGA mode (it needs Root access in order to access video memory -directly). I forgot to include it when I joined the two x11 sourcetrees -together (windowed and DGA). The bitdepth is incorrectly reported as 24 even on -32bpp servers. Strangely enough, my server correctly reports 32bpp. -The pitch value calculation method is wrong. On some cards the assumption -pitch=width*bpp isn't true (TNT cards for example but not Banshees). Damn, I'm -so lame... =) I was calculating it with the logical screenwidth of the -resulting viewport instead of calculating it with the physical screenwidth -returned in the videomode info. The makefile was modified in order to include a -check to "tinyptc.h" during the 'make' operation. - -20000503 0.1 - -Initial release. Supports X11 Windowed and X11 DGA access. No color -conversions, just a bare bones emulation of the windows version.
