GEGL-0.1.0
GEGL 0.1.0
??????????
GEGL (Generic Graphics Library) is a graph based image processing framework.
GEGL provides a graph based API and framework to do demand driven, cached, non destructive image editing of larger than RAM images. Through babl it provides support for a wide range of color models and pixel storage formats for input and output.
This is the first release in the 0.1.x development series, APIs have been overhauled the graph API is now considered pretty stable. Note that to migrate existing 0.0.x series code to 0.1.x you need to prefix operation names with "gegl:"
To build gegl-0.1.0 you will also need the newest version of babl.
Changes in this release
???????????????????????
• Renamed gegl:load-buffer to gegl:buffer-source and gegl:save-buffer
to gegl:buffer-sink (but the old names still work)
• Represent colors using doubles instead of floats (this change is
independent from internal processing)
• Removed the GTK+ UI parts of the gegl binary and turned gegl into a
pure command line tool (which can still visualize stuff with help
help the SDL based display operation)
• Consider {x=G_MININT/2, y=G_MININT/2, width=G_MAXINT, height=G_MAXINT}
as the only valid region wichin processing may occur. Processing
outside of this region is undefined behaviour.
• Added support for storing allocation stack traces for GeglBuffers
so that debuging buffer leaks becomes much easier
• Made small changes and cleanups of the public API, e.g.
• Removed gegl_node_adapt_child()
• Made GeglConfig an explicit object
• Removed most of the ifdeffed stuff to mask away internal
structures
• Added gegl_rectangle_infinite_plane() and
gegl_rectangle_is_infinite_plane()
• Added new sampler GeglSamplerSharp
• Added format property go gegl:buffer-sink
• Cleaned up and made gegl:introspect work again
• Add a bunch of test cases using the automake test sytem (make check)
and also port buffer tests to automake
• General cleanups, bug fixes, increased robustness and improved
documentation

Congratulations to this release. Will the gegl.org web-site be updated anytime soon?
Note to all users of GIMP 2.6: The gimp-2.6 releases that we have done so far will not work with GEGL 0.1.0 (or babl 0.1.0). This is not because GEGL would be incompatible, but rather because of a stupid bug in the run-time version check. This is fixed in git and we plan to do GIMP 2.6.7 release with this fix soonish. There are however a few more patches pending that we'd like to get into 2.6.7 as well. So give us a few more days...
