Extract from ChangeLog back to August 2005:
* rsvg.h: Export RsvgHandle and RsvgHandleClass to the
outside world so you can subclass them
* rsvg-gobject.c: add props "width", "height", "em", "ex" (all read only)
* *.c: Rename rsvg_cairo_render to rsvg_handle_render_cairo, for
better GObject consistency
* rsvg-gobject.c: RsvgHandle now derives from GObject. This doesn't
break API/ABI.
* Update documentation. Should be near 100% symbol coverage.
* Public functions: added g_return_XXX() sneeze-guards
* librsvg.def: List of symbols that we export
* Makefile.am: Use libtool's -export-symbols to try to only export
the above symbols (on platforms where it's supported).
* configure.in: Mozilla-config fixes so that it works with more config scripts
* rsvg-convert.c: New utility called 'rsvg-convert'. Can
convert a SVG to a PS, PDF, or PNG. Can accept SVG input
from STDIN and output to STDOUT. Has a lot more flexibility
and functionality than the old 'rsvg' program.
* rsvg-cairo-render.c, rsvg.c, rsvg.h: Make mods to Caleb's
latest work. Prefer to expose a Cairo API that can render
an element by id, and then go from there.
* rsvg-cairo-render.c, rsvg.c, rsvg.h: made that partial
rendering api that I promised Rahga ages ago. Havn't tested
yet.
* rsvg-art-*.[ch]: Remove these files, as they've been replaced by Cairo.
Libart is dead. Long live libart!
* rsvg.h: Revert API changes to make the Gimp folk happier
* everywhere: use strings for RTTI, not sure about the
speed hit, but allows us a lot more flexiblity
* rsvg-private.h: removed obsolete percentage resolution structures
* gtk-engine/svg-render.c: Cache RsvgHandles rather than GByteArrays
containing SVG data. Preparation for move to cairo-only theme engine.
* configure.in: Rip out libart backend; require the cairo
backend, and require cairo >= 1.0.2
* test-display.c: Implement image zooming. Todo: rewrite this to use Cairo.
* a_lot_of_places: implemented a system of late normalizations
of lengths. Now used everywhere
* rsvg-base.c: find out the size of the contents of an SVG
if there is nothing else to go on.
* rsvg-filter.c: filters now using pre-multiplied alpha
and have changable byte ordering
* rsvg-cairo-draw.c: handles bounding boxes around images correctly
* rsvg-structure.c: added preservation of aspect ratio to SVG elements
* rsvg-cairo-draw.c: (_set_source_rsvg_pattern): Add preliminary
support for patterns to rsvg-cairo, (doesn't do transformed
patterns yet).
* rsvg-cairo-clip.c/.h: new files. Added clipping in cairo backend.
* most-cairo-related-places: added lots of stuff to do with
gradients, objectBoundBox positioning and spreading. Made
currentColor work with cairo. Made courners look great in
cairo but crap in libart... I just can't win.
* rsvg-styles.c: made a new function called rsvg_state_reconstruct
that can make a style inherit from a node's ancestors rather
than the drawing context.
* rsvg.c (_rsvg_handle_get_pixbuf): Un-premultiply ARGB->RGBA
instead of going through a PNG stream first
* rsvg-cairo-draw.c (rsvg_cairo_render_path): Implement
line join, cap, width, dash, miter limit
(rsvg_cairo_render_image): Drawing images now works
(rsvg_cairo_push_discrete_layer): Largely implemented
(rsvg_cairo_pop_discrete_layer): Largely implemented
(_set_source_rsvg_radial_gradient): Make this work for the few tests I have
...
and of course lots of bug fixes.
