| VIPS changed from 7.10 to 7.12 (not exhaustive, see ChangeLog for details) | |
| Non-backwards compatible changes | |
| ================================ | |
| - IMAGE->Hist is deprecated, use im_history_get() instead | |
| - im_append_Hist() removed | |
| - IMAGE->Bbits is deprecated (now ignored) | |
| - im_region_local() replaced by im_region_buffer() | |
| VIPS enhancements | |
| ================= | |
| - new backwards and forwards compatible VIPS file format: it has a new | |
| metadata system that efficiently shares and propogates ICC profiles, | |
| EXIF data, etc. & whatever | |
| - speed ups: new pixel buffer cache saves and reuses computations, uses liboil | |
| where possible for a small speedup | |
| - SMP scaling: simplified lock system improves SMP scaling, double-buffered | |
| image writes overlap computation | |
| - lower mem use: new mmap window cache shares file mappings, history buffers | |
| share and reuse image history metadata | |
| - built-in support for new image formats: OpenEXR, Analyze7, CSV | |
| - RGB16 and GREY16 image hints | |
| - uses GOption for much better command-line argument handling | |
| - better C++ binding: namespaces, VError derives from std::exception, image | |
| and number vector constants | |
| - python binding | |
| - gcc sentinel attributes added | |
| - added GValue as an arg type | |
| - added im_benchmark() and friends for testing | |
| - new functions: | |
| im_analyze2vips(), im_benchmark*(), im_buildlut(), | |
| im_concurrency_get/set(), im_contrast_surface(), | |
| im_contrast_surface_raw(), im_copy_from(), im_copy_morph(), | |
| im_cp_desc_array(), im_cp_descv(), im_extract_areabands(), | |
| im_flood_blob_copy(), im_get_option_group(), im_grid(), | |
| im_header_exists(), im_header_map(), im_history_get(), | |
| im_invalidate(), im_isscalar(), im_lineset(), im_linreg(), | |
| im_meta*(), im_msb(), im_norm_dmask(), im_project(), | |
| im_raw2vips(), IM_REGION_ADDR_TOPLEFT(), im_tile_cache(), | |
| im_video_test() | |
| VIPS changed from 7.8 to 7.10 (not exhaustive, see ChangeLog for details) | |
| Non-backwards compatible changes | |
| ================================ | |
| - no longer generates vips-config script, instead it makes .pc files for | |
| pkg-config ... replace any "vips-config" with "pkg-config vips-7.10" | |
| - origin hint semantics changed ... it now records the position in the output | |
| image of the origin of the input image | |
| - all float to int casts on pixel values are now floor() rather than rint(), | |
| for consistency with C casting semantics | |
| VIPS enhancements | |
| ================= | |
| - nip reworked for gtk+-2.4, now called nip2 | |
| - now based on glib, so VIPS no longer has it's own thread, plugin and data | |
| structure libraries | |
| - i18n support, although not quite complete yet | |
| - new error message API to make i18n possible (compatibility macros mean the | |
| old API still works) | |
| - new 'start up VIPS' call, im_init_world(), sets up i18n and threads | |
| (optional to call it, but i18n won't fully work unless you do) | |
| - C programs now just need "#include <vips/vips.h>", no other includes | |
| required | |
| - wraps the Pango font rendering library, see im_text() | |
| - new function flag: NOCACHE ... means the result of the call should not be | |
| cached, useful for video grab functions and paintbox functions | |
| - im_embed() now supports a wider range of embedding styles, including a fast | |
| edge stretch | |
| - all area operations use the new embed style to expand their input rather | |
| than their output, so there are no more black borders on filtered images | |
| - other new functions: im_render(), im_cache(), im_extract_bands(), | |
| im_copy_swap(), im_rint(), im_make_xy(), im_init_world(), im_error(), | |
| im_warn(), im_diag(), im_rank_image(), im_replicate() | |
| - many fixes and improvements to old funcs | |
| - configure and portability improvements | |
| Bug fixes | |
| ========= | |

| VIPS changes from 7.6 to 7.8 (again, not exhaustive, see ChangeLog for details) | |

| - include path change | |
| - C includes <vips/vips.h> | |
| - C++ includes <vips/vipscpp.h> | |
| - im_extract*() numbers bands from zero, not from 1 ... also other funcs which | |
| refer to bands (eg. im_lrmosaic() etc.) | |
| - mosaic funcs have extra max blend width parameter | |

| im_print(), im_guess_prefix(), im_remosaic(), im_invertlut(), Yxy funcs, | |
| color temperature funcs, im_clip2fmt(), im_blend(), im_lab_morph(), | |
| im_histnorm(), im_histcum(), im_video_v4l(), im_LabS2Lab(), im_Lab2LabS() | |
| - new type: IMAGEVEC | |

| - ip/nip split to separate packages | |
| - better vips2dj | |
| - better cygwin support, mingw support too | |

| VIPS Changes for 7.4 to 7.6 | |
| Non-backwards compatible changes | |
| ================================ | |
| - im_histplot() has new (and better) rules | |
| - im_andconst(), im_orconst() and im_eorconst() now take a | |
| double, not an unsigned char, as their constant argument type | |
| - im_global_balance_float() renamed as im_global_balancef() to be | |
| more consistent with other functions | |
| - im_global_balance_search() removed ... you can do this efficiently | |
| with an ip macro now | |
| - new parameter "gamma" to im_global_balance() and | |
| im_global_balancef() ... sets the gamma for the input device with | |
| which the images were captured, set to 1.0 for old behaviour | |
| - im_malloc() now returns void *, not char * | |
| Bug fixes | |
| ========= | |
| - tiny memory leak in im_list_remove() fixed | |

| - missing function descriptor for im_rank_raw() | |
| - im_dECMC_fromLab() was broken | |
| - im_erode() and im_dilate() output incorrect error messages | |
| if mask elements were not one of 0, 128, 255 | |
| - im_rotate_*mask*() functions were not preserving scale and offset | |
| values | |
| Package enhancements | |
| ==================== | |
| The whole thing is now GPL, with GNU configure | |
| ip changes | |
| ========== | |
| - better display control bar | |
| - matrix operations now appear in the workspace | |
| - new UI elements: input options and toggles | |
| - better LUT optimisation --- arithmetic operations on UCHAR images should be | |
| much faster | |
| - new macro language --- same as old one, but faster and much more powerful | |
| - all standard menus rewritten in new macro language, much nicer! | |
| - batch operations with Group/Ungroup | |
| - now uses GDK for drawing in image windows, much better colour handling on | |
| 8/16-bit graphics cards | |
| - image repaint is now threaded for an about-linear speedup as you add | |
| more CPUs | |
| - many interface improvements and polishes | |
| VIPS enhancements | |
| ================= | |
| - VIPS now uses POSIX threads (7.4 used Solaris threads) and has been rejigged | |
| to provide a nice threading API to functions which call the library | |
| - im_open() now knows about LSB- and MSB- first VIPS images, and | |
| silently converts them to native order ... it also now ignores case when | |
| deciding what format to write | |
| - new parameter type IM_INPUT_REALVEC, a vector of doubles | |
| - new set of functions with vector constants: im_lintra_vec(), | |
| im_powtra_vec(), im_expntra_vec(), all relational | |
| (im_equal_vec(), im_notequal_vec(), etc.), all boolean | |
| (im_and_vec() etc.) | |
| - new flag for function descriptors: "IM_FN_PTOP" set for point-to-point | |
| functions ... makes ip use LUTs for operation | |
| - im_tiff2vips() now reads and writes 16-bit images, and knows about zip | |
| (deflate) compression | |
| - convenience functions im_extract_band() extracts a band from an image; | |
| im_extract_area() extracts an area | |
| - im_list_member() tests for list contains object | |
| - new functions im_write_*mask_name(), im_create_*maskv() | |
| _ new functions im_remainder() and im_profile() | |
| - fourier filtering, forward transform, reverse transform, make power spectrum | |
| all free memory more quickly, making them suitable for very large images | |
| - new functions im_isMSBfirst() and im_amiMSBfirst() test images | |
| and this processor for MSB first byte order | |
| - im_malloc() now prints low-on-memory warnings to stderr with | |
| im_warning() for easier bug catching | |
| - D65_X0 updated for latest recommedations, D60, D93, | |
| D55, D50, A, B, C added | |
| - minor fixes to the C++ interface to bring it in line with the newer ANSI | |
| standards | |
| - more and more comprehensive prototypes in "proto.h" to aid C++ (use of | |
| "const" etc.) | |
| - im_and*(), im_or*() and im_eor*() can now work on any | |
| integer image |
