Author: By
Last change: CHANGELOG:
1.2.10
29 October 2006
- print_thumbnail has a new optional argument: display_inline. Refer to documentation for an explanation.
- Corrected filename header print_thumbnail sends to browser. (Used to send filenames without the period between filename and extensions)
- Removed redundant transform method and uses realpath() instead.

26 November 2006
- Added new configuration: remote_check (Refer to Documentation for details)

10 October 2007
Not really any changes. I'm releasing the changes I made after almost a year. There is currently no plan to continue development except to fix some bugs. Current planned and unimplemented features are:
- GIF Transparency Support
- GIF Animationn Support
These will probably stay unsupported unless there is sufficient demand and I find out how to implement them.

Plottable Thumbnail Library Version 1.2.10 (C) Chua Yong Wen 2004-2007 lawliet89[at]gmail.com http://chuayw2000.6x.to/ -------------------------------------------------- CHANGELOG: 1.2.10 29 October 2006 - print_thumbnail has a new optional argument: display_inline. Refer to documentation for an explanation. - Corrected filename header print_thumbnail sends to browser. (Used to send filenames without the period between filename and extensions) - Removed redundant transform method and uses realpath() instead. 26 November 2006 - Added new configuration: remote_check (Refer to Documentation for details) 10 October 2007 Not really any changes. I'm releasing the changes I made after almost a year. There is currently no plan to continue development except to fix some bugs. Current planned and unimplemented features are: - GIF Transparency Support - GIF Animationn Support These will probably stay unsupported unless there is sufficient demand and I find out how to implement them. 1.2.9 26 October 2006 - Changed author's email address - Added new method of retrieving remote images ==> This method uses the HTTP Retriever class (http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/package/3105.html) - Example.php will now automatically "require" the file "class_HTTPRetriever.php" if it finds it in the same directory. - retrieve_remote_file() now supports an optional parameter to "force" it to use a certain method of image retrival - print_thumbnail() now redirects to an absolute URL instead of a relative URL - Revamped Error Handling - output_error() has been superseded by set_error() - You can now set log_error on to log errors in cache folder - Script will now terminate only on Fatal Errors - error_array has been sub-divided into fatal errors and warnings - Warnings are now logged in error_array. - Parameter changes to error() - Behavioural changes to isError() and error() - error() now returns ALL errors - Intermediate methods will now generate warnings instead of simply returning a "false" for easier debugging. - Documentation rewritten 28 October 2006 - Fixed bug in example where parent constructor methods was not run - Added new configuration to clear cache on thumbnail generation complete - Fixed variable mistake in print_thumbnail where $cached was used instead of $outputted - Thumbnail Generator web interface added (generator.php) - PHP Version requirements changed to 4.3.2. Please contact me if the class breaks in any PHP version above 4.3.2. - print_thumbnail now uses imagecopyresampled() instead of imagecopyresized() (Clear your cache if you want clearer thumbnails for cached ones!) - print_thumbnail now correctly saves PNG alpha channels 1.2.8 (1/4/2006) - Not an April Fool's changelog! - print_thumbnail method overhauled to be more efficient - All methods should return a false on error now. The values public methods return are based on the error_mode setting. - Overhauled example. Example should work with E_ALL error reporting and with register_globals off. - Example no longer includes example to output text - this method was intended for internal error output anyway and it seems useless to include in a thumbnail generation class anyway. - Deprecated method validate_connectivity has been removed. - Increased the "randomness" for retrieve_image_data temporary filename generation. (i.e. Uses mt_rand() instead of rand()) - retrieve_image_data will no longer overwrite an exisiting file. It will randomly generate filenames until the filename corresponds to a non-existent file. - Pretty phpDoc generated documentation has returned. - print_thumbnail now checks for supported file formats. - A new member, file_ext, was added. - New format XBM is added. This format is experimental as the PHP manual does not have proper documentation for its function. 1.2.7 (11/10/2005) - is_remote no longer test for connectivity. - test_connectivity is now deprecated. - When retrieving remote files via CURL, CURL will now follow redirects. - Fixed a bug where if allow_url_fopen is disabled and PHP 5 is avaliable, remote files and in some cases local files that are valid will be deemed invalid. 1.2.6 (30/9/2005) - Changed versioning system - scale_thumbnail now allow floats for magnitude - Changed the behaviour of scale_thumbnail when analysing magnitude values. Negative values are now abs'd. Specify a value smaller than 1 to make the image smaller. - Replaced all instances of file_get_contents($var) with join(file($var)) to ensure compatibility - Changed all hashing functions to use sha1 instead of md5. Please remember to clear your cache for this change! - Cache now supports multiple dimensions for an image file. (i.e. When deciding files to delete, if the file hash is the same, the file will not be deleted) - Methods will not fail if allow_url_fopen is disabled and will use a workaround - Uses CURL for remote files if standard fopen functions don't work - Replaced method's usage of GetImageSize to an internal method that will use a fallback should the standard procedure fail - Temporary files will be created and destroyed if allow_url_fopen is disabled. - New Methods: retrieve_image_data and retrieve_remote_file 1.2.5 (5/9/2005) - Added new error mode to end script execution with a die() statement instead of outputting an image. - New Method: image_to_file() for lazy people, I mean, to save scripters the trouble of coding a write to file function. - Updated the example code to include the use of the new method. - Pretty documentation removed. Please refer to the code's comments from now on. 1.2.4c - Bug fix: A new cache file is created for the same image when the contents of the image is changed. 1.2.4b - Fixed a small bug in which the script will not update a remote file cache even when the remote file has changed This is due to an error in variable usage when generating the MD5 Hash 1.2.4a - Fixed a ratio calculation error in fit_thumbnail - fit_thumbnail will no longer enlarge an image - Better Image Type Handling == For unsupported formats (like GIF), the class will attempt to output them as PNG. - Class is now E_NOTICE Safe. Thanks to Carlos Lorenzetti (kcholoren AT hotmail DOT com) - Added new Method isError to check whether there is an error. 1.2.4 - Added support for scaling (New Method for scaling) - Added Support for fitting (New Method) (Not perfect yet, uses a rather complicated Logical structures) - Added Support for Remote Images - Improved better Error Handling == Now you can specify whether to terminaate script execution when an error occurs or to record it to an error == The Error Message can be retrieved using the method error() == Functions will return false when an error occurs. - Image types are now auto-dectected - New Internal Method (is_cacheable) 1.2.3 - Added A New Method (Output Text) - Script will not display an error instead of returning an image if cache is not enabled 1.2.2 (25/6/04) - Converted it into a class - Removed Plock Support (internal use) NOTE: Prior to version 1.2.2, this script was only used on my website. 1.2.1 - Added Cache Support 1.1.0 - Changed the Script Structure 1.0.0 - Initial Release
