|
| +Debugging within the FreeType sources
|
| +=====================================
|
| +
|
| +I. Configuration macros
|
| +-----------------------
|
| +
|
| +There are several ways to enable debugging features in a FreeType 2
|
| +builds. This is controlled through the definition of special macros
|
| +located in the file `ftoptions.h'. The macros are:
|
| +
|
| +
|
| + FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_ERROR
|
| +
|
| + #define this macro if you want to compile the FT_ERROR macro calls
|
| + to print error messages during program execution. This will not
|
| + stop the program. Very useful to spot invalid fonts during
|
| + development and to code workarounds for them.
|
| +
|
| + FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_TRACE
|
| +
|
| + #define this macro if you want to compile both macros FT_ERROR and
|
| + FT_TRACE. This also includes the variants FT_TRACE0, FT_TRACE1,
|
| + FT_TRACE2, ..., FT_TRACE7.
|
| +
|
| + The trace macros are used to send debugging messages when an
|
| + appropriate `debug level' is configured at runtime through the
|
| + FT2_DEBUG environment variable (more on this later).
|
| +
|
| + FT_DEBUG_MEMORY
|
| +
|
| + If this macro is #defined, the FreeType engine is linked with a
|
| + small but effective debugging memory manager that tracks all
|
| + allocations and frees that are performed within the font engine.
|
| +
|
| + When the FT2_DEBUG_MEMORY environment variable is defined at
|
| + runtime, a call to FT_Done_FreeType will dump memory statistics,
|
| + including the list of leaked memory blocks with the source
|
| + locations where these were allocated. It is always a very good
|
| + idea to define this in development builds. This works with _any_
|
| + program linked to FreeType, but requires a big deal of memory (the
|
| + debugging memory manager never frees the blocks to the heap in
|
| + order to detect double frees).
|
| +
|
| + When FT2_DEBUG_MEMORY isn't defined at runtime, the debugging
|
| + memory manager is ignored, and performance is unaffected.
|
| +
|
| +
|
| +II. Debugging macros
|
| +--------------------
|
| +
|
| +Several macros can be used within the FreeType sources to help
|
| +debugging its code:
|
| +
|
| +
|
| + 1. FT_ERROR(( ... ))
|
| +
|
| + This macro is used to send debug messages that indicate relatively
|
| + serious errors (like broken font files), but will not stop the
|
| + execution of the running program. Its code is compiled only when
|
| + either FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_ERROR or FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_TRACE are defined in
|
| + `ftoption.h'.
|
| +
|
| + Note that you have to use a printf-like signature, but with double
|
| + parentheses, like in
|
| +
|
| + FT_ERROR(( "your %s is not %s\n", "foo", "bar" ));
|
| +
|
| +
|
| + 2. FT_ASSERT( condition )
|
| +
|
| + This macro is used to check strong assertions at runtime. If its
|
| + condition isn't TRUE, the program will abort with a panic message.
|
| + Its code is compiled when either FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_ERROR or
|
| + FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_TRACE are defined. You don't need double
|
| + parentheses here. For example
|
| +
|
| + FT_ASSERT( ptr != NULL );
|
| +
|
| +
|
| + 3. FT_TRACE( level, (message...) )
|
| +
|
| + The FT_TRACE macro is used to send general-purpose debugging
|
| + messages during program execution. This macro uses an *implicit*
|
| + macro named FT_COMPONENT used to name the current FreeType
|
| + component being run.
|
| +
|
| + The developer should always define FT_COMPONENT as appropriate,
|
| + for example as in
|
| +
|
| + #undef FT_COMPONENT
|
| + #define FT_COMPONENT trace_io
|
| +
|
| + The value of the FT_COMPONENT macro is an enumeration named
|
| + `trace_XXXX' where `XXXX' is one of the component names defined in
|
| + the internal file `internal/fttrace.h'. If you modify FreeType
|
| + source and insert new `trace_XXXX' macro, you must register it in
|
| + `fttrace.h'. If you insert or remove many trace macros, you can
|
| + check the undefined or the unused trace macro by
|
| + `src/tools/chktrcmp.py'.
|
| +
|
| + Each such component is assigned a `debug level', ranging from 0 to
|
| + 7, through the use of the FT2_DEBUG environment variable
|
| + (described below) when a program linked with FreeType starts.
|
| +
|
| + When FT_TRACE is called, its level is compared to the one of the
|
| + corresponding component. Messages with trace levels *higher* than
|
| + the corresponding component level are filtered and never printed.
|
| +
|
| + This means that trace messages with level 0 are always printed,
|
| + those with level 2 are only printed when the component level is
|
| + *at least* 2.
|
| +
|
| + The second parameter to FT_TRACE must contain parentheses and
|
| + correspond to a printf-like call, as in
|
| +
|
| + FT_TRACE( 2, ( "your %s is not %s\n", "foo", "bar" ) )
|
| +
|
| + The shortcut macros FT_TRACE0, FT_TRACE1, FT_TRACE2, ...,
|
| + FT_TRACE7 can be used with constant level indices, and are much
|
| + cleaner to use, as in
|
| +
|
| + FT_TRACE2(( "your %s is not %s\n", "foo", "bar" ));
|
| +
|
| +
|
| +III. Environment variables
|
| +--------------------------
|
| +
|
| +The following environment variables control debugging output and
|
| +behaviour of FreeType at runtime.
|
| +
|
| +
|
| + FT2_DEBUG
|
| +
|
| + This variable is only used when FreeType is built with
|
| + FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_TRACE defined. It contains a list of component
|
| + level definitions, following this format:
|
| +
|
| + component1:level1 component2:level2 component3:level3 ...
|
| +
|
| + where `componentX' is the name of a tracing component, as defined
|
| + in `fttrace.h', but without the `trace_' prefix. `levelX' is the
|
| + corresponding level to use at runtime.
|
| +
|
| + `any' is a special component name that will be interpreted as
|
| + `any/all components'. For example, the following definitions
|
| +
|
| + set FT2_DEBUG=any:2 memory:5 io:4 (on Windows)
|
| + export FT2_DEBUG="any:2 memory:5 io:4" (on Linux with bash)
|
| +
|
| + both stipulate that all components should have level 2, except for
|
| + the memory and io components which will be set to trace levels 5
|
| + and 4, respectively.
|
| +
|
| +
|
| + FT2_DEBUG_MEMORY
|
| +
|
| + This environment variable, when defined, tells FreeType to use a
|
| + debugging memory manager that will track leaking memory blocks as
|
| + well as other common errors like double frees. It is also capable
|
| + of reporting _where_ the leaking blocks were allocated, which
|
| + considerably saves time when debugging new additions to the
|
| + library.
|
| +
|
| + This code is only compiled when FreeType is built with the
|
| + FT_DEBUG_MEMORY macro #defined in `ftoption.h' though, it will be
|
| + ignored in other builds.
|
| +
|
| +
|
| + FT2_ALLOC_TOTAL_MAX
|
| +
|
| + This variable is ignored if FT2_DEBUG_MEMORY is not defined. It
|
| + allows you to specify a maximum heap size for all memory
|
| + allocations performed by FreeType. This is very useful to test
|
| + the robustness of the font engine and programs that use it in
|
| + tight memory conditions.
|
| +
|
| + If it is undefined, or if its value is not strictly positive, then
|
| + no allocation bounds are checked at runtime.
|
| +
|
| +
|
| + FT2_ALLOC_COUNT_MAX
|
| +
|
| + This variable is ignored if FT2_DEBUG_MEMORY is not defined. It
|
| + allows you to specify a maximum number of memory allocations
|
| + performed by FreeType before returning the error
|
| + FT_Err_Out_Of_Memory. This is useful for debugging and testing
|
| + the engine's robustness.
|
| +
|
| + If it is undefined, or if its value is not strictly positive, then
|
| + no allocation bounds are checked at runtime.
