Re: [Devel] open file.ttf on macos 9

Thanks for replying.
Do you think that the control flow is normal ? I mean FT_New_Face / FT_Open_Face / testing flags and 
drivers / loop on registred drivers ?

If yes, then I must have a problem with "registred drivers" in

      FT_Module*  cur   = library->modules;
      FT_Module*  limit = cur + library->num_modules;


      for ( ; cur < limit; cur++ )
      {

because my "limit" variable is equal to cur, which means probably that 
library->num_modules =0.
Do you have any idea of why I have no module in the library ?
