RMQR: update to new draft ISO/IEC JTC1/SC31N000 (Draft 2019-6-24);
allow for righthand vertical timing pattern in populate_grid()
ULTRA: update max size and min cols based on BWIPP 2021-07-14 update
backend_tcl/zint_tcl.dsp: use /MD instead of /MT for tcl lib compat;
change include/lib path to more standard one
manual.txt: highlight that rMQR is still in development
GUI: use cross-platform smaller font func instead of explicit values for notes
bmp/emf/ps.c: allow for foreground colour in ULTRA
bmp/gif/pcx.c: allow for BARCODE_STDOUT (fflush/fclose)
emf.c: hexagon rotation field not used; dont't use float index in font loop; Windows stdout binary mode
png.c: remove unused 8-bit; simplify libpng error handling and fclose outfile on error
ps.c: fix buffer overflow on colour_to_pscolor() CMYK
tif.c: fix BLACKISZERO indexes
CODE39: simplify check digit setting
reedsol.c: rs_uint_init_gf() log/alog tables must be zeroed
ZBarcode_Encode: debug: fix access out-of-bounds on non-NUL-terminated source if length < 10
manual.txt/zint.h: document NUL-terminated strings
tests: cover further cases for output (bmp/emf/etc), eci/gb18030/gb2312/sjis, reedsol, AZTEC, CODE39
In `aztec_text_process`, `binary_string`, which aliases to `aztec`'s
`bit_pattern` has it's first element set to NUL. However, when the string
is later written into using `bin_append_posn`, that NUL is overwritten and
further NUL to replace it is not appended.
In general, the garbage collected memory content should never be assumed to
have a specific value unless a value was explicitly assigned, so the content
of `bit_pattern` cannot be safely assumed to be NUL.
If the string is not NUL terminated, functions relying on NUL termination,
such as the printf call at the end of `aztec_text_proccess` itself,
will overrun the array bounds.
Explicitly initialize `bit_pattern`
Patch from Michael <virtual_worlds@gmx.de>
Full text: As usual I have modified only minor things to remove warnigs when compiled as C++ code, have added some const-specifiers where possible to help the compiler create more efficient code and added some static-specifiers to make functions invisible to other modules.
Original email reads...
It does not contain any fundamental changes or new functions but a lot of improvements which I have done over time (added several const/static specifiers, replaced repeated if-conditions by if-else, removed some warnings).
