Bug #13796 Updated: Configure sets both HAVE_GD_STRINGTTF and HAVE_GD_STRINGFT
ID: 13796
User updated by: johan@ekenberg.se

Old Status: Feedback
Status: Open
Bug Type: GD related
Operating System: Linux
PHP Version: 4.0CVS-2001-10-23
New Comment:
Yes, GD is compiled with freetype 2. Please observe that everything works perfectly when I edit
main/php_config.h manually (removing HAVE_GD_STRINGTTF) before compiling.
It doesn't seem to matter what prefix I enter at --with-freetype-dir, configure reports that it
finds freetype 2 anyway. And it apparently works.
In my view there are two issues here:
1. Something is wrong in the autoconf stuff which makes both HAVE_GD_STRINGTTF and HAVE_GD_STRINGFT
be defined in main/php_config.h although there is no libttf (freetype 1) on the system and
HAVE_GD_STRINGTTF should (as far as I understand) not be defined.
2. The if/else preprocessor stuff in ext/gd/gd.c around line 2765 is strange (or wrong):
# if HAVE_GD_STRINGFT
error = gdImageStringFT(...);
# endif
# if HAVE_GD_STRINGTTF
error = gdImageStringTTF(...);
# endif
Shouldn't this be changed to:
#if HAVE_GD_STRINGFT
error = gdImageStringFT(...);
#elif HAVE_GD_STRINGTTF
error = gdImageStringTTF(...);
#endif
Or is there a hidden point in both gdImageStringFT() and gdImageStringTTF() being called in sequence
if both HAVE_GD_STRINGTTF and HAVE_GD_STRINGFT are defined?

Sorry, I didn't notice that you're using invalid configure
option value here. --with-freetype-dir expects the
install prefix dir for freetype2.
# ./configure --help |grep freetype
--with-freetype-dir=DIR GD: Set the path to freetype2 install prefix.
Also, is your GD library compiled with freetype 2?

No, still the same problem:
$ grep HAVE_GD_STRING main/php_config.h
#define HAVE_GD_STRINGFT 1
/* #undef HAVE_GD_STRINGFTEX */
#define HAVE_GD_STRINGTTF 1
Gives the same error when compiled and tried with imagettf*().

Could you check if this works in latest CVS now?

Configuring with freetype 2 and NOT freetype 1.* installed:
./configure \
--with-gd \
--with-freetype-dir=/usr/local/include/freetype2
results in both HAVE_GD_STRINGTTF and HAVE_GD_STRINGFT being defined in main/php_config.h
This produces this error when trying to use the imagettf*() functions in GD:
"libgd was not built with TrueType font support"
Removing HAVE_GD_STRINGTTF from main/php_config.h before compiling fixes this issue. But of course
it should be permanently fixed in autoconf.
