General information:
|
|
|
|
FLTK does not include the entire library distributions. We only provide
|
|
the source files necessary to build the library itself. There are no
|
|
test programs or other contributed files.
|
|
|
|
We use our own build files, hence a few files MUST NOT be upgraded when
|
|
the library source files are upgraded. We strive to keep changes to the
|
|
library source files as small as possible. Patching library code to
|
|
work with FLTK should be a rare exception.
|
|
|
|
If patches are necessary all changes in the library files should be
|
|
marked with "FLTK" in a comment so a developer that upgrades the library
|
|
later is aware of changes in the source code for FLTK. Additional comments
|
|
should be added to show the rationale, i.e. why a particular change was
|
|
necessary. If applicable, add a reference to a Software Trouble Report
|
|
like "STR 3456", "Issue #123", or "PR #234".
|
|
|
|
|
|
How to update the bundled libraries:
|
|
|
|
It is generally advisable to use a graphical merge program. I'm using
|
|
'meld' under Linux, but YMMV.
|
|
|
|
Do not add any source files unless they are required to build the library.
|
|
|
|
Some config header files may be pre-generated in the FLTK sources. These
|
|
header files should be left untouched, but it may be necessary to update
|
|
them if new items were added to the new library version. In this case
|
|
the new header should be pre-generated on a Linux system with default
|
|
options unless otherwise mentioned below for a specific library.
|
|
Currently there are no known exceptions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Merging source files:
|
|
|
|
Please check if some source and header files contain "FLTK" comments
|
|
to be aware of necessary merges. It is also good to get the distribution
|
|
tar ball of the previous version and to run a (graphical) diff or
|
|
merge tool on the previous version and the bundled version of FLTK
|
|
to see the "previous" differences.
|
|
|
|
Files that were not patched in previous versions should be copied to
|
|
the new version w/o changes. Files that had FLTK specific patches must
|
|
be merged manually. FLTK patches should be verified (if still necessary)
|
|
and should be kept in the new source files.
|
|
|
|
Source and header files that have been added in the new library version
|
|
should be added in FLTK as well if they are necessary to build the
|
|
library. A simple "trial and error" should be sufficient to find files
|
|
that need to be added. Added files must be added to FLTK's build files
|
|
as well, usually to both `Makefile' and `CMakeLists.txt' to be used in
|
|
configure/make and in CMake based builds, respectively.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upgrade order:
|
|
|
|
There is only one dependency between all bundled libraries: libpng
|
|
depends on zlib. Hence zlib should be upgraded first, then all other
|
|
libs can be upgraded in arbitrary order.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tests after merge:
|
|
|
|
Tests should be done on as many platforms as possible, both with
|
|
autotools (configure/make) and CMake. Windows (Visual Studio) and
|
|
macOS (Xcode) builds need CMake to generate the IDE files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upgrade notes for specific libraries:
|
|
|
|
The following chapters contain information of specific files and how
|
|
they are upgraded. Since the changes in all bundled libraries can't
|
|
be known in advance this information may change in the future. Please
|
|
verify that no other changes are necessary.
|
|
|
|
|
|
zlib:
|
|
|
|
Website: http://zlib.net/
|
|
Download: See website and follow links.
|
|
Repository: git clone https://github.com/madler/zlib.git
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following files need special handling:
|
|
|
|
CMakeLists.txt: Keep FLTK version, update manually if necessary.
|
|
|
|
Makefile: Same as CMakeLists.txt.
|
|
|
|
zconf.h: Merge changes.
|
|
|
|
As of zlib 1.2.11: two small sections marked with "FLTK" comments
|
|
that need to be kept.
|
|
|
|
makedepend: Keep this file.
|
|
|
|
Run `make depend' in the zlib folder on a Linux system after
|
|
the upgrade to update this file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
png:
|
|
|
|
Website: http://libpng.org/pub/png/libpng.html
|
|
Download: See website and follow links.
|
|
Repository: git clone https://git.code.sf.net/p/libpng/code libpng
|
|
|
|
libpng should be upgraded after zlib because it depends on zlib.
|
|
|
|
The following files need special handling:
|
|
|
|
CMakeLists.txt: Keep FLTK version, update manually if necessary.
|
|
|
|
Makefile: Same as CMakeLists.txt.
|
|
|
|
Note: more to come...
|
|
|
|
makedepend: Keep this file.
|
|
|
|
Run `make depend' in the png folder on a Linux system after
|
|
the upgrade to update this file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
jpeg:
|
|
|
|
Website: http://ijg.org/
|
|
Download: See website and follow links.

the upgrade to update this file.

nanosvg:
|
|
|
|
Website: https://github.com/memononen/nanosvg
|
|
Download: See website and follow links.
|
|
Repository: git clone https://github.com/memononen/nanosvg.git
|
|
FLTK Clone: git clone https://github.com/fltk/nanosvg.git
|
|
|
|
FLTK has its own GitHub clone of the original repository (see above).
|
|
|
|
The intention is to update this clone from time to time so the FLTK
|
|
specific patches are up-to-date with the original library. Hopefully
|
|
the FLTK patches will be accepted upstream at some time in the future
|
|
so we no longer need our own patches.
|
|
AlbrechtS, 04 Feb 2018.
|
|
|
|
Use this clone (branch 'fltk') to get the nanosvg library with FLTK
|
|
specific patches:
|
|
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/fltk/nanosvg.git nanosvg-fltk
|
|
$ cd nanosvg-fltk
|
|
$ git checkout fltk
|
|
$ cd src
|
|
$ cp nanosvg.h nanosvgrast.h /path/to/fltk-1.4/nanosvg/
|
|
|
|
This library does not have its own build files since it is a header-only
|
|
library. The headers are included in FLTK where necessary.
|
|
|
|
The following files need special handling:
|
|
|
|
nanosvg.h: Merge or download from FLTK's clone (see above).
|
|
nanosvgrast.h: Merge or download from FLTK's clone (see above).
