// Known problems:
//
// * The combination of buffered, tiled and transparent draw will display the
//   background incorrectly (scaled).
//   If this is a problem for you, use non-buffered (goDirectDraw) drawing
//   instead.
//
// * The combination of non-buffered, transparent and stretched draw is
//   sometimes distorted with a pattern effect when the image is displayed
//   smaller than the real size (shrinked).
//
// * Buffered display flickers when TGIFImage is used by a transparent TImage
//   component.
//   This is a problem with TImage caused by the fact that TImage was designed
//   with static images in mind. Not much I can do about it.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// To do (in rough order of priority):
// { TODO -oanme -cFeature : TImage hook for destroy notification. }

(*
  DEBUG				Must be defined if any of the DEBUG_xxx
  				symbols are defined.
                                If the symbol is defined the source will not be
                                optimized and overflow- and range checks will be
                                enabled.

  DEBUG_HASHPERFORMANCE		Calculates hash table performance data.
  DEBUG_HASHFILLFACTOR		Calculates fill factor of hash table -
  				Interferes with DEBUG_HASHPERFORMANCE.
  DEBUG_COMPRESSPERFORMANCE	Calculates LZW compressor performance data.
  DEBUG_DECOMPRESSPERFORMANCE	Calculates LZW decompressor performance data.
  DEBUG_DITHERPERFORMANCE	Calculates color reduction performance data.
  DEBUG_DRAWPERFORMANCE		Calculates low level drawing performance data.
  				The performance data for DEBUG_DRAWPERFORMANCE
                                will be displayed when you press the Ctrl key.
  DEBUG_RENDERPERFORMANCE	Calculates performance data for the GIF to
  				bitmap converter.
  				The performance data for DEBUG_DRAWPERFORMANCE
                                will be displayed when you press the Ctrl key.

  GIF_NOSAFETY			Define this symbol to disable overflow- and
				range checks.
                                Ignored if the DEBUG symbol is defined.

  STRICT_MOZILLA		Define to mimic Mozilla as closely as possible.
  				If not defined, a slightly more "optimal"
                                implementation is used (IMHO).

  FAST_AS_HELL			Define this symbol to use strictly GIF compliant
  				(but too fast) animation timing.
                                Since our paint routines are much faster and
                                more precise timed than Mozilla's, the standard
                                GIF and Mozilla values causes animations to loop
                                faster than they would in Mozilla.
                                If the symbol is _not_ defined, an alternative
                                set of tweaked timing values will be used.
                                The tweaked values are not optimal but are based
                                on tests performed on my reference system:
                                - Windows 95
                                - 133 MHz Pentium
                                - 64Mb RAM
                                - Diamond Stealth64/V3000
                                - 1600*1200 in 256 colors
                                The alternate values can be modified if you are
                                not satisfied with my defaults (they can be
                                found a few pages down).

  REGISTER_TGIFIMAGE            Define this symbol to register TGIFImage with
  				the TPicture class and integrate with TImage.
                                This is required to be able to display GIFs in
                                the TImage component.
                                The symbol is defined by default.
                                Undefine if you use another GIF library to
                                provide GIF support for TImage.

  PIXELFORMAT_TOO_SLOW		When this symbol is defined, the internal
  				PixelFormat routines are used in some places
                                instead of TBitmap.PixelFormat.
                                The current implementation (Delphi4, Builder 3)
                                of TBitmap.PixelFormat can in some situation
                                degrade performance.
                                The symbol is defined by default.

  CREATEDIBSECTION_SLOW		If this symbol is defined, TDIBWriter will
  				use global memory as scanline storage, instead
                                of a DIB section.
                                Benchmarks have shown that a DIB section is
                                twice as slow as global memory.
                                The symbol is defined by default.
                                The symbol requires that PIXELFORMAT_TOO_SLOW
                                is defined.

  SERIALIZE_RENDER		Define this symbol to serialize threaded
  				GIF to bitmap rendering.
                                When a GIF is displayed with the goAsync option
                                (the default), the GIF to bitmap rendering is
                                executed in the context of the draw thread.
                                If more than one thread is drawing the same GIF
                                or the GIF is being modified while it is
                                animating, the GIF to bitmap rendering should be
                                serialized to guarantee that the bitmap isn't
                                modified by more than one thread at a time. If
                                SERIALIZE_RENDER is defined, the draw threads
                                uses TThread.Synchronize to serialize GIF to
                                bitmap rendering.

Disposal mode algorithm:

Step 1: Copy destination to backup buffer
        Always executed before first frame and only once.
        Done in constructor.
Step 2: Clear previous frame (implementation is same as step 6)
        Done implicitly by implementation.
        Only done explicitly on first frame if goClearOnLoop option is set.
Step 3: Copy backup buffer to frame buffer
Step 4: Draw frame
Step 5: Copy buffer to destination
Step 6: Clear frame from backup buffer
