Currently, this only affects ARM, since it is the only platform that
accelerates YCbCr-to-RGB conversion but not merged upsampling. Even if
"plain" upsampling isn't accelerated, the combination of accelerated
color conversion + unaccelerated plain upsampling is still faster than
the unaccelerated merged upsampling algorithms.
Closes#81
This, in combination with the existing jpeg_skip_scanlines() function,
provides the ability to crop the image both horizontally and vertically
while decompressing (certain restrictions apply-- see libjpeg.txt.)
This also cleans up the documentation of the line skipping feature and
removes the "strip decompression" feature from djpeg, since the new
cropping feature is a superset of it.
Refer to #34 for discussion.
Closes#34
The convention used by libjpeg:
type * variable;
is not very common anymore, because it looks too much like
multiplication. Some (particularly C++ programmers) prefer to tuck the
pointer symbol against the type:
type* variable;
to emphasize that a pointer to a type is effectively a new type.
However, this can also be confusing, since defining multiple variables
on the same line would not work properly:
type* variable1, variable2; /* Only variable1 is actually a
pointer. */
This commit reformats the entirety of the libjpeg-turbo code base so
that it uses the same code formatting convention for pointers that the
TurboJPEG API code uses:
type *variable1, *variable2;
This seems to be the most common convention among C programmers, and
it is the convention used by other codec libraries, such as libpng and
libtiff.
The IJG README file has been renamed to README.ijg, in order to avoid
confusion (many people were assuming that that was our project's README
file and weren't reading README-turbo.txt) and to lay the groundwork for
markdown versions of the libjpeg-turbo README and build instructions.
When using context-based upsampling, use a dummy color conversion
routine instead of a dummy row buffer. This improves performance
(since the actual color conversion routine no longer has to be called),
and it also fixes valgrind errors when decompressing to RGB565.
Valgrind previously complained, because using the RGB565 color
converter with the dummy row buffer was causing a table lookup with
undefined indices.
