hi list, first, thanks for providing matplotlib, i am using it in several projects.
i had problems with several png files and decided to upgrade libpng. as you can see in the documentation of libpng, direct access to png_infop is no longer possible. i have created the following patch: --- matplotlib-1.0.1/src/_png.cpp 2010-10-12 16:14:42.000000000 +0000 +++ matplotlib-1.0.1X/src/_png.cpp 2011-05-25 19:23:36.261752651 +0000 @@ -350,18 +350,21 @@ png_set_sig_bytes(png_ptr, 8); png_read_info(png_ptr, info_ptr); - png_uint_32 width = info_ptr->width; - png_uint_32 height = info_ptr->height; + png_uint_32 width = png_get_image_width(png_ptr, info_ptr); + png_uint_32 height = png_get_image_height(png_ptr, info_ptr); - int bit_depth = info_ptr->bit_depth; + int bit_depth = png_get_bit_depth(png_ptr, info_ptr); // Unpack 1, 2, and 4-bit images if (bit_depth < 8) png_set_packing(png_ptr); + // this is needed several times, so safe it in a variable + png_byte color_type = png_get_color_type(png_ptr, info_ptr); + // If sig bits are set, shift data png_color_8p sig_bit; - if ((info_ptr->color_type != PNG_COLOR_TYPE_PALETTE) && + if ((color_type != PNG_COLOR_TYPE_PALETTE) && png_get_sBIT(png_ptr, info_ptr, &sig_bit)) { png_set_shift(png_ptr, sig_bit); @@ -374,13 +377,13 @@ } // Convert palletes to full RGB - if (info_ptr->color_type == PNG_COLOR_TYPE_PALETTE) + if (color_type == PNG_COLOR_TYPE_PALETTE) { png_set_palette_to_rgb(png_ptr); } // If there's an alpha channel convert gray to RGB - if (info_ptr->color_type == PNG_COLOR_TYPE_GRAY_ALPHA) + if (color_type == PNG_COLOR_TYPE_GRAY_ALPHA) { png_set_gray_to_rgb(png_ptr); } @@ -408,11 +411,11 @@ npy_intp dimensions[3]; dimensions[0] = height; //numrows dimensions[1] = width; //numcols - if (info_ptr->color_type & PNG_COLOR_MASK_ALPHA) + if (color_type & PNG_COLOR_MASK_ALPHA) { dimensions[2] = 4; //RGBA images } - else if (info_ptr->color_type & PNG_COLOR_MASK_COLOR) + else if (color_type & PNG_COLOR_MASK_COLOR) { dimensions[2] = 3; //RGB images } @@ -421,7 +424,7 @@ dimensions[2] = 1; //Greyscale images } //For gray, return an x by y array, not an x by y by 1 - int num_dims = (info_ptr->color_type & PNG_COLOR_MASK_COLOR) ? 3 : 2; + int num_dims = (color_type & PNG_COLOR_MASK_COLOR) ? 3 : 2; double max_value = (1 << ((bit_depth < 8) ? 8 : bit_depth)) - 1; PyArrayObject *A = (PyArrayObject *) PyArray_SimpleNew( kind regards, dieter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ vRanger cuts backup time in half-while increasing security.
