Greg,
Thanks for your answer. I have downloaded the CVS source and I have done
my best to understand the differences.
I have checked if the FT2 caching is compiled in the current code, and
it seems like ftcache.c is compiled (ftcache.o and ftcache.lo is built).
After inserting some printf's in the Freetype2 cache source code I got
the following result:
When text is drawn, both FTC_CMapCache_Lookup() and
FTC_Manager_Lookup_Face() are executed.
I am using Microwindows 0.9 and Freetype 2.1.3.
Regards,
Sven
