<p>This document describes the changes made to the software between the
<em>previous</em> and <em>current</em> versions (see above).
If you don’t find something listed here, then it was not done in this
timeframe, or it was not considered important enough to be mentioned.
The following information is located here:</p>
<section id="software-configuration-changes">
<h2>Software configuration changes<a class="headerlink" href="#software-configuration-changes" title="Permalink to this heading">¶</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>bit order was corrected for Pentium systems</p></li>
<li><p>a new define, <code class="xref c c-macro docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">HOST_BIGENDIAN</span></code>, was added for code that
wants to statically use information about native cpu byte order</p></li>
</ul>
</section>
<section id="library-changes">
<h2>Library changes<a class="headerlink" href="#library-changes" title="Permalink to this heading">¶</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>the G3/G4 decoder was replaced by a new one that is faster and
has smaller state tables</p></li>
<li><p>Niles Ritter’s client tag extension hooks were added</p></li>
<li><p>a new routine <a class="reference internal" href="../functions/TIFFquery.html#c.TIFFCurrentDirOffset" title="TIFFCurrentDirOffset"><code class="xref c c-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">TIFFCurrentDirOffset()</span></code></a> was added for
applications that want to find out the file offset of a TIFF directory</p></li>
<li><p>the calculation of the number of strips in an image was corrected
for images with certain esoteric configurations</p></li>
<li><p>a potential memory leak (very unlikely) was plugged</p></li>
<li><p>the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">TIFFReadRGBAImage</span></code> support was completely rewritten
and new, more flexible support was added for reading images into
a fixed-format raster</p></li>
<li><p>YCbCr to RGB conversion done in the <a class="reference internal" href="../functions/TIFFReadRGBAImage.html#c.TIFFReadRGBAImage" title="TIFFReadRGBAImage"><code class="xref c c-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">TIFFReadRGBAImage()</span></code></a> support
was optimized</p></li>
<li><p>a bug in JPEG support calculation of strip size was corrected</p></li>
<li><p>the LZW decoder was changed to initialize the code table to zero
to lessen potential problems that arise when invalid data is decoded</p></li>
<li><p><code class="xref c c-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">tiffcomp.h()</span></code> is now aware of OS/2</p></li>
<li><p>some function prototypes in <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">tiffio.h</span></code> and <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">tiffiop.h</span></code>
that contained parameter names have been changed to avoid complaints
from certain compilers</p></li>
</ul>

<section id="portability-support-changes">
<h2>Portability support changes<a class="headerlink" href="#portability-support-changes" title="Permalink to this heading">¶</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p><code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Makefile.in</span></code> has been corrected to use the parameters
chosen by the <strong class="program">configure</strong> script</p></li>
</ul>
</section>
<section id="tools-changes">
<h2>Tools changes<a class="headerlink" href="#tools-changes" title="Permalink to this heading">¶</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p><strong class="program">fax2ps</strong> has been rewritten and moved over from the user
contributed software</p></li>
<li><p>an uninitialized variable in <strong class="program">pal2rgb</strong> has been fixed</p></li>
<li><p><strong class="program">ras2tiff</strong> now converts 24-bit RGB raster data so that
samples are written in the proper order</p></li>
<li><p><strong class="program">tiff2ps</strong> has been updated to include fixes
and enhancements from Alberto Accomazzi</p></li>
<li><p><strong class="program">tiffcp</strong> now has a “<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-o</span></code>” option to select a directory
by file offset</p></li>
<li><p><strong class="program">tiffinfo</strong> is now capable of displaying the raw undecoded
image data in a file</p></li>
<li><p><strong class="program">tiffgt</strong> has been rewritten to use the new <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">TIFFRGBAImage</span></code>
support and to handle multiple files</p></li>
