#4507: Replace quesoglc with harfbuzz
-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
Reporter: Vincent | Owner:
Type: patch (an actual patch, not | Status: new
a request for one) | Milestone: unspecified
Priority: normal | Version: git/master
Component: Engine: Graphics |
Operating System: All/Non-Specific |
-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
This patch replaces quesoglc with direct harfbuzz + freetype usage.
In addition to sharper text the addition of harfbuzz means that some
scripts like arabic
or hindic can be properly supported since harfbuzz provides ligature
substitution.
The rendering uses a stripped down iv_drawImage function so that it will
work with any
graphic API that implements iv_drawImage.
I'm developping with Visual Studio 2015, I updated configure.ac and tested
that it works
on bash for Ubuntu but I think some testing on Linux and Mac are welcomed.
