[ft] hb_ft_get_glyph_from_name fails for the name of glyph id 0
[uniscribe] Fix buffer allocation
[Indic] Add Javanese config
[OT] Collect requiredFeature only if features are not provided
Fix contextual lookup recursion indexing
Destroy lookups before blobs.
If variation selector is not consumed by cmap, pass it on to GSUB
Skip over multiple variation selectors in a row
util/ansi-print.cc: Use fallback implementation for lround on MSVC
hb-uniscribe.cc: Re-enable build under Visual Studio
Overview of changes leading to 0.9.18
Tuesday, May 28, 2013
=====================================
New build system:
- All unneeded code is all disabled by default,
- Uniscribe and CoreText shapers can be enabled with their --with options,
- icu_le and old shapers cannot be enabled for now,
- glib, freetype, and cairo will be detected automatically.
They can be force on/off'ed with their --with options,
- icu and graphite2 are default off, can be enabled with their --with
options,
Moreover, ICU support is now build into a separate library:
libharfbuzz-icu.so, and a new harfbuzz-icu.pc is shipped for it.
Distros can enable ICU now without every application on earth
getting linked to via libharfbuzz.so.
For distros I recommend that they make sure they are building --with-glib
--with-freetype --with-cairo, --with-icu, and optionally --with-graphite2;
And package harfbuzz and harfbuzz-icu separately.
to address issues with NetBSD-6(and earlier)'s fontconfig not being
new enough for pango.
While doing that, also bump freetype2 dependency to current pkgsrc
version.

Arabic font, this release is over 3x faster than previous

Overview of changes leading to 0.9.13
Thursday, February 25, 2013
=====================================
- Build fixes.
- Ngapi HarfBuzz Hackfest in London (February 2013):
* Fixed all known Indic bugs,
* New Win8-style Myanmar shaper,
* New South-East Asian shaper for Tai Tham, Cham, and New Tai Lue,
* Smartly ignore Default_Ignorable characters (joiners, etc) wheb
matching GSUB/GPOS lookups,
* Fix 'Phags-Pa U+A872 shaping,
* Fix partial disabling of default-on features,
* Allow disabling of TrueType kerning.
- Fix possible crasher with broken fonts with overlapping tables.
- Removed generated files from git again. So, one needs ragel to
bootstrap from the git tree.
API changes:
- hb_shape() and related APIs now abort if buffer direction is
HB_DIRECTION_INVALID. Previously, hb_shape() was calling
hb_buffer_guess_segment_properties() on the buffer before
shaping. The heuristics in that function are fragile. If the
user really wants the old behvaior, they can call that function
right before calling hb_shape() to get the old behavior.
- hb_blob_create_sub_blob() always creates sub-blob with
HB_MEMORY_MODE_READONLY. See comments for the reason.
