Changelog for current release (since LibRaw 0.8.5)

LibRaw 0.9.1 (2010-05-15)

• Fixed a bug in 8-bit RAW processing code

LibRaw 0.9.0 (2010-04-26)

New licensing:

• Triple licensing (selected by LibRaw user):
  • LGPL 2.1
  • CDDL 1.0
  • LibRaw Software License (27 March 2010 version)
• There are no separate LibRaw-Lite and LibRaw-Commercial versions, only single LibRaw. Current LibRaw-Lite and LibRaw-Commercial users should switch to LibRaw without loss of functionality. It is possible to change licensig too (e.g. from LGPL to CDDL for LibRaw-Lite users and from LibRaw License to LGPL or CDDL for LibRaw-Commercial users).
• No Foveon support, sorry.
  It is not possible to get good color from Foveon sensors with *any* converter. So, there is no need to support these cameras. Dcraw's Foveon-processing code is too strict licensed (GPL), so we choose to drop it.

New Features:

• New data field colordata.channel_maximum[4] - per channel data maximum (calculated for most cameras, 0 for others).
• New postprocessing parameter params.adjust_maximum_thr This parameter controls changing hardcoded colordata.maximum value to calculated at unpack stage. This helps suppress parasite tone in highlights (pink clouds and so).
  Default value is reasonable (0.75), look into documentation for more details.
• New command line parameter -c VALUE for dcraw_emu sample, sets params.adjust_maximum_thr value.
  Use -c 0.0 for dcraw compatibility.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed typecast error (problem reported only on gcc 4.2.1/32bit) in CRW files processing.
• Fixed a bug in unpacking DNG files made from Fuji RAFs
• Finally fixed inconsistency in Fuji files processing
• New COLOR(row,col) call to get bayer color index in image[] array
• Old FC() call is deprecated and will be removed in future releases
• unprocessed_raw sample switched to COLOR() call
• Removed OpenMP-related warnings.
• OpenMP support: OpenMP is possible under MinGW (untested)

All client code should be recompiled due to structures size change.

• dcraw 8.86/1.426 imported:
  • many new cameras supported:
    Casio EX-S20, EX-Z60, EX-Z75
    Kodak Z980, Z1015
    Nikon D5000
    Olympus X200, D560Z, C350Z, E30, E620

  • New color data for many cameras.
  • Generalized unpacking code for many formats.
  • Removed hardcoded white-balance data for many P&S cameras. It is recommended to set params.use_camera_wb to 1 for safe WB.
  • Canon cameras: black level is not subtracted if params.document_mode =2
• API changes: params.gamma_16bit field removed. Gamma curve is set via params.gamm[0]/gamm[1] values (see documentation and samples for details)
• Many cosmetic changes to support more platforms/compilers.
• Samples: dcraw_emu and mem_image samples supports new dcraw 16bit/gamma semantics:
  • -6: set 16 bit output
  • -4: set 16 bit output and linear gamma curve and no auto brightness
• C-API: added missed (but documented) calls libraw_dcraw_make_mem_image() and libraw_dcraw_ make_mem_thumb()
• Internal data structures has changed, so all client code should be recompiled

0.7.x release: ChangeLog

0.7.2 Release, 2009-04-07

• More accurate types conversion in libraw_datastream.h to make compilers happy.
• New postprocessing parameter auto_bright_thr: set portion of clipped pixels for auto brightening code (instead of dcraw-derived hardcoded 1%).
• -U option for dcraw_emu sample sets auto_bright_thr parameter.
• all client code should be recompiled due to structures size change.

0.7.1 Release, 2009-03-22

• Fixed mistype in OpenMP support code
• MinGW support (Makefile only)
• dcraw source code included in distribution

0.7.0 Release, 2009-03-15

Short list of major changes in 0.7 release:

• Black (masked) pixels data extracted from RAW and avaliable in application.
• Application can turn off RAW data filtering (black level subtraction, zero pixels removal and raw tone curve).
• New 'input framewrok' released. Reading raw data from file and memory buffer supported from scratch. LibRaw-using application can implement own data reading functions (e.g. reading from network stream).
• Fuji SuperCCD: raw data extracted without 45-degree rotation.
