This is a port of library TIFF 4.0.3 to MSDOS/DJGPP.
DJGPP specific changes.
=======================
This port requires the use of the CVS version of snprintf. Other
minor djgpp
specific changes are documented in the diffs file. Apart from these
changes
only the usual configuration files have been added, especially sed
scripts to
fix the libtool files (ltmain and ltconfig). They are located in the
/djgpp
directory. As for all binaries and libraries that handle images of
any kind,
it should be noted that files (streams) are *always* openend in
binary mode
with all the well known implications on a DOS/WINDOWS OS if the stream is
connected to STDIN and/or STDOUT when these are still connected to
the console.
For ppm2tiff.exe, tiff2pdf.exe and iptcutil.exe both SIGINT and
SIGQUIT are
reenabled if stdin and/or stdout is connected to console.
To configure and compile the package and later to use it, you will
have to
install the zlib, ljpeg8b and the png port available at
ftp.delorie.com and
mirrors as:
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/zlib128b.zip
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/png162b.zip
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/jpeg9b.zip
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/jbig20b.zip
or:
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/zlib128b.zip
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/png162b.zip
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/jpeg9b.zip
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/jbig20b.zip
Of course, you can download a newer version of zlib, png and jpeg if
available. The zlib, png and jpeg stored in /current have been compiled
with djdev203 and those ones from /beta are compiled with djgpp204.
Please note that you will need LFN support to be able to configure,
compile
and to run the test suite of the package.
The source package is now distributed configured for both DJGPP 2.03 and
DJGPP 2.04. In the top srcdir there is a "_build.203" directory and a
"_build.204" directory. If for some reason you need to reconfigure the
sources delete the complete contain of the _build.20[3|4] directory and
run the following command:
..\djgpp\config.bat ./..
If for some reason the configuration step fails simply keep
config.cache and
start the above command a second time.
Please read the docs. There are no info formatted docs. All the
extensive
documentation is html formatted and placed in
/share/doc/libtiff4.0-3/html
The port has been compiled using stock djdev203 (patchlevel 2) and
consists
of the two packages that can be downloaded from ftp.delorie.com and
mirrors
as (time stamp 2013-05-20):
library TIFF 4.0.3 binaries, headers, libs and man/html format
documentation:
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/tiff403b.zip
library TIFF 4.0.3 source:
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/tiff403s.zip
The binaries have been produced a second time using the stock version of
djdev204 beta library. This package is available at ftp.delorie.com and
mirrors as (time stamp 2013-05-20):
library TIFF 4.0.3 binaries, headers, libs and man/html format
documentation:
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/tiff403b.zip
