Comment (by bdubbs@…):
Overview of changes leading to 1.5.0 - Wednesday, August 23, 2017
- Misc new API, for appending a buffer to another, and for comparing
contents of two buffers for types of differences.
- New "unsafe-to-break" API. Can be used to speed up reshaping
in line-breaking situations. Essentially, after shaping, it returns
positions in the input string (some of the cluster boundaries) that
are "safe to break" in that if the text is segmented at that position
and two sides reshaped and concatenated, the shaping result is
exactly the same as shaping the text in one piece.
hb-view and hb-shape and hb-shape now take --verify, which verifies
the above property.
Some corner cases of the implementation are still not quite working.
Those will be fixed in subsequent releases.
- New API:
hb_buffer_append()[[br]]
hb_glyph_info_get_glyph_flags()
