freetype is nearing its 2.3 release. I have built 2.3rc1 on my Mac and then configured vtk to use it instead of its own vtk code (thanks Utkarsh!). I have a nightly experimental build:

http://www.vtk.org/Testing/Sites/RogueResearchi386/MacOSXTiger-i386-cocoa-ft2.3/20070116-1003-Experimental/Test.html [^]

Happily all test pass! (except 2, which are failing on many machines, and thus presumably unrelated)

Can someone please try freetype 2.3 on linux and windows?

freetype 2.3 was officially released on 2007-01-17. As of tomorrow, my experimental build is now using the official 2.3.

OK, I have taken a crack at this. I now have freetype 2.3.2 (latest release) working in vtk (cvs version). It was pretty straightforward actually.

I tested with java, python, tcl, cocoa, carbon and no test failures have been introduced.

Can someone volunteer to test on Windows and linux? I am hesitant to checkin otherwise. Thanks.

The freetype folks have released 2.3.3. It integrates most of the local changes present in the current vtk cvs. This will make keeping up-to-date with future freetypes much easier.

I have updated my patch from 2.3.2 to 2.3.3. I am not familiar enough with CVS to know what to do about moving files, adding files, and deleting files. So instead I simply zipped up the entire vtkfreetype folder, it is attached.

To install this patch, simple unzip the archive, and replace you 'vtkfreetype' folder with this one.

I have just now updated freetype in VTK CVS to 2.3.5. I consider this bug fixed.
