| Version History: |
| ---------------- |
| |
| Release 0.95 |
| ------------ |
| |
| * Added more unit tests around BMP. |
| * Added more images to the test image suite. |
| * Fixed a bug where errors were being wrongly logged to System.out. |
| * Moved the example code into the test source directory, to comply with Maven's standard project layout. |
| * Added a couple of images to the sample image library that demonstrate a couple variations on Photoshop/IPTC data. |
| * Fixed a small bug in the IPTC constants introduced while cleaning up the constants. |
| * Started shift towards moving field-level parsing into BinaryInputStream and BinaryOutputStream. |
| * Fixed a png unit test that used a piece of Java 1.6 syntax. |
| * Added unit tests around the new IPTC functionality. |
| * Added IPTC remove/update/insert functionality. |
| * Rewrote the IPTC parsing support. |
| * Added improved support for reading and writing iTXt, tEXt, zTXt Png chunks. |
| Added a unit test that demonstrates the feature. |
| * Found a new regression wherein DeflaterOutputStream needs to be closed. |
| * Added the .tar.bz2 distributions back into the maven assembly descriptors. |
| * Moved the example/sample code to a new top-level source folder, "example." |
| * Replaced dependency on java.util.zip.DeflaterOutputStream, which is only available in Java 1.6. |
| * Added a unit test around reading and writing images in every format. |
| * We now sort some (but not all) GIF color tables. |
| * Applied the BMP "buffer flushing" bug to the PBM reading and writing code. |
| * Fixed a regression around flushing the bit buffer when writing BMPs with very small palettes. |
| * Removed assumption about DataBuffer type when reading BMPs. |
| * When writing a GIF, we now always include a Graphic Control Extension block, even if its not necessary. |
| * We are more defensive about missing GCEs. |
| * Lastly, we now set a minimum bound on initial code sizes for LZW-compressed Gif image data. |
| * Found a regression in writing TIFFs around strip offsets being properly updated. Not a LZW issue after all. |
| Added a few unit tests around this issue. |
