Log Message:
harfbuzz: update to 3.0.0.
Overview of changes leading to 3.0.0
Friday, September 17, 2021
====================================
- Unicode 14.0 support (David Corbett).
- The hb-subset API and the harfbuzz-subset library's ABI are now declared
stable. The harfbuzz-subset library would not have been possible without the
work of Garret Rieger and Qunxin Liu from Google Fonts, and the earlier work
of Michiharu Ariza from Adobe.
- The hb-style API is now stable and no longer experimental.
- New API:
+hb_style_tag_t
+hb_style_get_value()
+hb_subset_input_t
+hb_subset_flags_t
+hb_subset_sets_t
+hb_subset_input_create_or_fail()
+hb_subset_input_reference()
+hb_subset_input_destroy()
+hb_subset_input_set_user_data()
+hb_subset_input_get_user_data()
+hb_subset_input_unicode_set()
+hb_subset_input_glyph_set()
+hb_subset_input_set()
+hb_subset_input_get_flags()
+hb_subset_input_set_flags()
+hb_subset_or_fail()
- Removed old unstable harfbuzz-subset API:
-hb_subset_input_nameid_set()
-hb_subset_input_namelangid_set()
-hb_subset_input_layout_features_set()
-hb_subset_input_no_subset_tables_set()
-hb_subset_input_drop_tables_set()
-hb_subset_input_set_drop_hints()
-hb_subset_input_get_drop_hints()
-hb_subset_input_set_desubroutinize()
-hb_subset_input_get_desubroutinize()
-hb_subset_input_set_retain_gids()
-hb_subset_input_get_retain_gids()
-hb_subset_input_set_name_legacy()
-hb_subset_input_get_name_legacy()
-hb_subset_input_set_overlaps_flag()
-hb_subset_input_get_overlaps_flag()
-hb_subset_input_set_notdef_outline()
-hb_subset_input_get_notdef_outline()
-hb_subset_input_set_no_prune_unicode_ranges()
-hb_subset_input_get_no_prune_unicode_ranges()
-hb_subset()
Overview of changes leading to 2.9.1
Tuesday, September 7, 2021
====================================
- Final subset API is in place and if no issues are discovered, it will be the
stable subset API of HarfBuzz 3.0.0. Old API is kept to ease transition, but
will be removed in 3.0.0.
- Various fuzzer-found bug fixes.
- hb_buffer_append() now handles the pre- and post-context which previously
were left unchanged in the destination buffer.
- hb-view / hb-shape now accept following new arguments:
o --unicodes-before/after: takes a list of hex numbers that represent Unicode
codepoints.
- Undeprecated API:
hb_set_invert()

History Repeats Itself (Afghanistan)
====================================
- Subsetter API is being stabilized, with the first stable API to happen in
3.0.0 release (https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/3078).
- Support multiple variation axes with same tag, aka HOI.
- The “coretext” testing shaper now passes font variations to CoreText.
- hb-shape/hb-view does not break line at new lines unless text is read from
file.
- hb-view and hb-subset has a --batch now, similar to hb-shape.
- The --batch mode now uses ; as argument separator instead of : used previously.
- The --batch in hb-shape does not expect 0th argument anymore. That is, the
lines read are interpreted as argv[1:], instead of argv[0:].
- The --batch option has been undocumented. We are ready to document it; send
feedback if you find it useful.
- hb-subset got arguments revamps. Added much-requested --gids-file, --glyphs,
--glyphs-file, --unicodes-file, supporting ranges in --unicodes.
- Various bug fixes.
