The libSDL_ttf code shares one FreeType instance for all fonts that are loaded. This means that simultaneous operations on multiple fonts will cause data corruption.
I notice that the code is only 1748 lines long. Perhaps I should just toss it into src/tuxpaint.c and fix up the thread safety bugs? I can just delete the threaded font code. Assuming libSDL_ttf gets fixed, Tux Paint could check the version info. Then, if the library is not thread-safe, Tux Paint can just scan for all fonts in the main thread. _______________________________________________ Tuxpaint-dev mailing list Tuxpaint-dev@tux4kids.net http://tux4kids.net/mailman/listinfo/tuxpaint-dev
