LATEST CHANGES -
+ - major directory hierarchy re-organisation. This was done for two things:
+
+ * first, to ease the "manual" compilation of the library by requiring
+ at lot less include paths :-)
+
+ * second, to allow external programs to effectively access internal
+ data fields. For example, this can be extremely useful if someone
+ wants to write a font producer or a font manager on top of FreeType.
+
+ Basically, you should now use the 'freetype/' prefix for header inclusion,
+ as in:
+
+ #include <freetype/freetype.h>
+ #include <freetype/ftglyph.h>
+
+ Some new include sub-directories are available:
+
+ a. the "freetype/config" directory, contains two files used to
+ configure the build of the library. Client applications should
+ not need to look at these normally, but they can if they want.
+
+ #include <freetype/config/ftoption.h>
+ #include <freetype/config/ftconfig.h>
+
+ b. the "freetype/internal" directory, contains header files that
+ describes library internals. These are the header files that were
+ previously found in the "src/base" and "src/shared" directories.
+
+
+ As usual, the build system and the demos have been updated to reflect
+ the change..
+
+ Here's a layout of the new directory hierarchy:
+
+ TOP
+ include/
+ freetype/
+ freetype.h
+ ...
+ config/
+ ftoption.h
+ ftconfig.h
+ ftmodule.h
+
+ internal/
+ ftobjs.h
+ ftstream.h
+ ftcalc.h
+ ...
+
+ src/
+ base/
+ ...
+
+ sfnt/
+ psnames/
+ truetype/
+ type1/
+ type1z/
+
+
+ Compiling a module is now much easier, for example, the following should
+ work when in the TOP directory on an ANSI system:
+
+ gcc -c -I./include -I./src/base src/base/ftbase.c
+ gcc -c -I./include -I./src/sfnt src/sfnt/sfnt.c
+ etc..
+
+ (of course, using -Iconfig/<system> if you provide system-specific
+ configuration files).
- updated the structure of FT_Outline_Funcs in order to allow
