`BARCODE_EAN_5ADDON`, `BARCODE_EAN13`, `BARCODE_EAN8_CC` and
`BARCODE_EAN13_CC` as replacements for `BARCODE_EANX`,
`BARCODE_EANX_CHK` and `BARCODE_EANX_CC` and use in CLI/GUI
(`BARCODE_EANX` etc. marked as legacy)
- For EAN/UPC accept space as alternative add-on separator to '+',
and accept GTIN-13 format with & without 2-digit or 5-digit
add-on (no separator)
- Buffer length of member `errtxt` in `zint_symbol` extended 100
-> 160 (will be sufficient for eventual translation and
gs1-syntax-dictionary errors hopefully)
- UPC-E: warn if first digit of 7 (or 8 if check digit given) not
'0' or '1'
- manual: update for new EAN symbologies and mention EANX now
legacy but still supported
followed by digit (ignore 2nd byte of FNC4 when categorizing
Code C characters)
- New `ZBarcode_Cap()` flag `ZINT_CAP_BINDABLE`, differentiated
from `ZINT_CAP_STACKABLE`, and new Qt Backend method
`isBindable()`
- CLI: fix `separator` check to use new `ZINT_CAP_BINDABLE` instead
of `ZINT_CAP_STACKABLE`
- ZBarcode_Cap: add missing symbologies to `ZINT_CAP_BINDABLE` (was
`ZINT_CAP_STACKABLE`)
- DOTCODE: pad rows if given number of columns instead of failing
if rows below min (5)
- DBAR/composites: ensure stacked symbologies and composites are
not stacked (set `symbol->rows` to 0)
- test suite: move `test_perf` routines into single test
"test_perf";
new "test_random" (based on "test_bwipp") to test various
symbologies with random binary - discovered CODABLOCKF bug;
expand "test_bwipp"
manual: Feeback: mention AZTEC -1 meaning min & MICROPDF417:
doc new `ZINT_CAP_BINDABLE`
general: various code fiddlings and re-formattings
fields `raw_segs` and `raw_seg_count` instead of `text`, and to
do so for all symbologies, using new common funcs `rt_cpy()` etc.
MICROPDF417: return ECC percentage in top byte of `option_1`
DBAR_EXP_STK: return `option_2`/`option_3` feedback
CLI: change warning text "ignoring" -> "**IGNORED**"
GUI: show feedback for DBAR_EXP_STK, MICROPDF417, UPNQR
ctest: fix recent inability to run tests via "ctest" on Windows
(MSVC) by using cmake 3.22 feature `ENVIRONMENT_MODIFICATION`
manual: document feedback and RAW_TEXT in new "Feedback" section;
rephrase some symbology descriptions
test suite: new general-use arg "-a"; add `func_name` to context;
new "test_bwipp" test for testing BWIPP against ZXing-C++
("Feedback options"), and for composites use in GUI to give
feedback on CC type automatically selected
- composite: warn if CC type upped from requested
- set_height: give up on giving minimal height in warning for now
as too messy to calc and just report too small
`min_row_height` by `zero_count`; use new precision modifier
- errtxtf: add processing of precision modifier for "%f"/"%g"
- test_qzint: fix "BARCODE_QRCODE no text" `encodedOption1()`
default 0 -> -1
DOTCODE/GRIDMATRIX/HANXIN/MICROPDF417/MICROQR/PDF417/QRCODE/
RMQR/ULTRA: set `option_1/2/3` to values used in encodation
("Feedback options"), and add new access methods
`encodedOption1()` etc. to Qt Backend, and use in GUI to provide
better feedback on "Automatic" selections
- AZTEC: give more precise warnings in low ECC situations, and
indicate via `option_1` by setting to -1 (min 3 words), 0
(<5% + 3 words) (`ecc_ratio`)
- set_height: fix non-compliance false positives by using epsilon
in checks (prompted by CODABLOCKF non-compliant warning for
zint-generated compliant height - floating point `rows` mult !=
`zero_count` div; one test regression for CODE93);
better warning messages on non-compliant heights (min/max)
- manual/man page: fix DATAMATRIX Sizes tables "28 12x26" ->
"27 12x26"
- GUI: AZTEC/CODEONE: add Zint versions to comboboxes
- DOTCODE: improve error messages re size too small/large
- ULTRA: better ZINT_TEST codeword dump (ZINT_DEBUG_TEST)
- general: various tabs -> spaces; prettify main .rc files;
trailing spaces; small amount of code fiddling (CODE16K)
and suppress errors in lib and backend tests (pretty sure they're
nearly all false positives apart from maybe 2 non-initializations
in "gif.c" (`pOut` buffer) and "raster.c" (`rotated_pixbuf`)
github: install de_DE.UTF-8 locale in ubuntu-debug also
`BARCODE_PLAIN_HRT` option for `output_options` - for use
primarily by ZXing-C++ but may be generally useful;
centralize setting of HRT using new common `hrt_cpy_nochk()` etc.
routines to ensure `text_length` always set
PLESSEY: add show default check characters option
CODE32: ignore `option_2` (check digit options)
PZN: ignore `option_2` (check digit options) except when indicates
PZN7 only
DPD: exclude DEL from ident tag also
out_maybe_mkdir: fix `utf8_to_wide()` return (Windows only)
general: replace use of `strcpy()` etc. (except for test suite)
with `memcpy()`, `hrt_()` etc. in lib & `cpy_str()` etc. in CLI
& `cpy_bytearray_left()` in backend_qt
clang-tidy: update README reflecting above
backend_tcl: use sizeof(primary) to check length; tabs -> spaces
general: various code fiddling
docs: pandoc 3.6.2 -> 3.6.3
to suppress warnings about `errtxtf` operand number "%<n>$" args;
enable some further warnings
test suite: enable -Wpedantic and fix/suppress any warnings
also add min version to all CMakeLists.txt
GUI: add missing accelerator to UPCA/UPCEAN.ui "Guard Whitespace";
add default value to some "Default" buttons;
reformat DAFT examples again; add \^@ to special escs hint
encodation in certain cases (and no pessimizations found so far),
props lyngklip (BWIPP);
fix extended char latching when exactly 3 extended chars at end;
count code set C (not digits) in loop deciding when to
shift/latch to extended for better estimate
AZTEC: return warning if ECC < 5% (due to bit-stuffing when version
given); return error if > 22 layers (Zint 26) for Reader
Initialisation symbol requested for better error message
AZTEC/HANXIN/QRCODE: consolidate different ECC data size tables
into one indexed by ECC
DBAR_EXP: check for reduced length <= 77 up front for better error
message
HANXIN: use `malloc()` rather than `z_alloca()` for large binary
array
QRCODE: `ecc_level` now 0-based (not 1-based)
MICROQR: consolidate different version end routines into one
`microqr_end()` and use new `microqr_data` table to simplify code
MICROPDF417: use table for max codewords per column
library: centralize all error messages using new `errtxt()`,
`errtxtf()`, `errtxt_adj()` funcs that protect `symbol->errtxt`
from overflow, & try to make error messages more consistent
thru-out, adding more feedback info to many, & use positional
args "%n$" in prep for l10n (maybe);
`is_sane/is_sane_lookup()` -> `not_sane/not_sane_lookup()`,
returning 1-based position (zero on failure) instead of bool;
`long` ints -> plain `int` (except those dealing with `ftell()`,
`fread()` etc) as depend on int being 32-bits already
GUI: in "grpDATF.ui" use "PlainText" rather than "RichText" for
tracker ratio examples as height of text messing up sometimes
manual: clarify Codablock-F length maximum & add examples
docs: README: pandoc 3.5, Ubuntu 24.04
CMake: use "-Wpedantic" for Clang only as GNU complains about
`errtxtf()` positional args "%n$"
avoid various weird behaviours
tests: disable GUI-dependent tests (`TestQZint::renderTest()`) if
ZINT_SANITIZE and on Linux for later versions of Qt (5 and 6)
to avoid ASAN "detected memory leaks" errors on exit
"SetPaths.cmake" (removed) - resolves absolute paths in
"zint-targets.cmake", ticket #318, props John Alexander;
also remove "FindZint.cmake" install as not best practice
(Daniel Pfeifer “Effective CMake"), but retain in tree for now;
also remove APPLE stuff re UNIVERSAL build, obsolete, and
setting of CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT, seems unnecessary
Previously, width is option 2 and security level is option 1.
Seems like in 54947fb435, the definitions
swapped and that breaks the legacy Qt application using setWidth() and
setSecurityLevel().
I know a better solution is make Qt application use setOption2() and
setOption1() respectively, but it's good to keep these legacy APIs
backward-compatible.
- GUI: scalewindow: fix cropping resolution on initial setup
(`spnResolution` max 1000 -> 254000) and bound X-dim to <= 10 in
`set_maxima()`
- GUI: mainwindow: bound X-dim as above and clamp `m_xdimdpVars`
members on initial load from INI
- GUI: undo `QString::mid()` -> `QString::midRef()` from clazy
& explicitly include "QObject" in "qzint.h" (not Qt6 compatible)
and `out_colour_get_cmyk()`, to lessen chances of rounding
errors (in particular for VC6)
test_large: fix regression in change to test for formatting
`uint64_t` for `printf()`
win32/README: update MinGW/MSYS Qt version
test `ferror()` also in `fm_err()` if `err` zero and file

suppression
outputting to in-memory buffer `symbol->memfile` instead of to
file `symbol->outfile`, ticket #301
Add "README.clang-tidy" and ".clang-tidy" options file
Suppress some warnings
rename `ZINT_CAP_EXTENDABLE` -> `ZINT_CAP_EANUPC`
(`ZINT_CAP_EXTENDABLE` marked as legacy)
CODE128: increase no. symbol chars max 60 -> 99
EAN-2/EAN-5: fix `BARCODE_BIND_TOP/BIND/BOX` output
GS1_128: warn if data > 48 (GS1 General Specifications max)
common: `is_extendable()` -> `is_ucpean()`
raster: add `ZFONT_HALIGN_CENTRE/LEFT/RIGHT` flags and process
in `draw_string()` (for drawing EAN/UPC outside digits), and
for `ZFONT_HALIGN_CENTRE` round when calculating centre
(shifts some texts 1 pixel left)
raster/vector: use offsets into `symbol->text` for EAN/UPC
instead of `out_upcean_split_text()` (removed)
BMP/EMF/GIF/PCX/PNG/PS/SVG/TIF: use new `out_colour_get_rgb()`
routine (replaces `colour_to_XXX()`)
general: simplify/fix some `error_number` handling/returning
frontend: truncate overlong `--primary` instead of ignoring;
negative floating pt option (for `--textgap`)
man page: list size detail for matrix symbols (`--vers`)
manual: further fiddling with scaling text; some typos
Allow `--embedfont` for non-EAN/UPC SVG also (& update GUI)
SVG: add "fonts/normal_woff2.h"; use array syntax for it &
"fonts/upcean_woff2.h" to avoid large strings
GUI: embed Arimo (via "fonts/normal_ttf.h"), same as OCRB
Change textgap max 5X -> 10X
README: make list of barcodes 2-col table for readability
win32/README: note Visual Studio 2022 re CMake
`EANUPC_GUARD_WHITESPACE`, CLI `--guardwhitespace`) (ticket #287)
EAN-2/EAN-5: HRT now at top instead of at bottom for standalones,
following BWIPP
CLI: batch mode: don't close input if stdin
EAN/UPC: fix excess 1X to right of add-ons
Composites: fix excess whitespace; fix quiet zone calcs to allow
for linear shifting
CLI: use own (Wine) version of `CommandLineToArgvW()` to avoid
loading "shell32.dll"
Move "font.h" -> "raster_font.h"
EPS/SVG: use new `out_putsf()` func to output floats, avoiding
trailing zeroes & locale dependency
EPS: simplify "TR" formula
SVG: change font from "Helvetica, sans serif" to "OCR-B, monospace";
use single "<path>" instead of multiple "<rect>"s to draw boxes
(reduces file size)
Add `EMBED_VECTOR_FONT` to `output_options` (CLI `--embedfont`) to
enable embedding of font in vector output - currently only for
SVG output of EAN/UPC
GUI: use "OCR-B" font for EAN/UPC and "Arimo" for all others (was
"Helvetica" for both); paint background of screen preview light
grey so as contrasts with whitespace and quiet zones
EMF: prefix funcs with `emf_`; simplify string `halign` handling
large: rename `large_int` -> `large_uint`
CODE128/common: move `c128_hrt_cpy_iso8859_1()` to
`hrt_cpy_iso8859_1()` and add `ZINT_WARN_HRT_TRUNCATED` warning
(for future use)
Various symbologies: replace `printf()` with `fputs()`
(symbol->debug)
QRCODE: better assert(), removing a NOLINT (2 left)
CLI: add some more barcode synonyms for DBAR
common: various fiddlings
CMake: don't include png.c unless ZINT_USE_PNG (avoids clang
warning)
