This release is a bugfix and feature release. The non standard core
dependencies are plain included for easy building and faster porting.
Testing, code documentation and tutorials have improved. This version is
not fully API compatible with previous releases in order to support
many new features.
New features
============
Core
----
* improved image ROI support for scaling, with many new APIs
* add [CMM selection API][1] and many related API changes
* support effect filter configuration with OY_PROFILES_EFFECT key and
oyWIDGET_PROFILE_EFFECT
* add [threads hooks][2], with defaults loaded from pthreads + win32
threads module "trds"
* abstract DB dependency out
* add DB cache for faster repeated access, clearing the cache is done by
calling oyGetPersistentStrings(NULL)
* add oySCOPE_e and use in DB related APIs
* add JSON device load APIs with oyDeviceFrom/ToJSON()
* [create device filter on the fly from rank map][3] using JSON files
* add oyOptions_FromJSON()/oyOptions_GetText(oyNAME_JSON) APIs
* add introspection framework for object to SVG dumps; see
[oyObjectTreePrintf()][4]
* add [oyProfile_FromName()][5] supporting file name, internal profile
names, ICC ID and wildcard names for use in tools
* filter duplicates in oyProfiles_Create() and support
OY_ALLOW_DUPLICATES flag
* add oyGetInstallPath() and oyProfile_Install() APIs
Tools
-----
* add profile version selectors (-2|-4)
* support profile names like file/ID/md5/default profile wildcards for
profile arguments
* add profile --path and --short options to better pass profiles to
other tools
* add *oyranos-policy -cfe* options to show current policy file name
* support [OY_DEBUG_OBJECTS environment variable][6] for code
introspection, writes the object tree as SVG
* [support Qt5][7] by *qcmsevents* tool
* support SVG output in *oyranos-profile-graph*, beside PNG
* open graph window after tools exit, needs set OY_DEBUG_OBJECTS
* improve *oyranos-monitor-daemon* session daemon by syncing X root
window, XRandR and Gnome profiles
Modules
-------
* new "trds" default threads module, with POSIX pthreads and windows
threads support
* new "elDB" / Elektra and "oiDB" modules , default loaded DB hooks from
["elDB" / Elektra][8] if available and a fallback to included
[libOpenICC][9]
* add [oyMonitorHooks_s interface][10] to write system specific monitor
hooks independently and easily
* support [EDID_md5 and EDID meta keys][11] in disp module family for
compatibility
* add "move_color_server_profiles._oyX1" and "clean_profiles._oyX1"
handler filters used so far by *oyranos-monitor-daemon* and *CompICC*
* add oyCMM_s.h header to build modules out of tree
* support [HALF reading in PPM][12] image reader
* add "oJPG" JPEG image reader
* add "scale", "expose" and "channel" filters in "oyra" module
Examples
--------
* add more tutorials and examples and link them in the inline documentation
* support High-DPI monitors in all FLTK based GUIs
**oyranos-image-display**
* support scaling [+,-,w,h,0,1, mouse scroll], channel selection [0-9
keys] and exposure [Alt +,-,.]
* support image flipping [<,>]
* support full screen view [Alt v,F11]
* add help [F1] and shortcut help view (Ctrl H)
* add image info window [Ctrl F]
* support view of oyHALF and oyDOUBLE sample types
* support view of object tree with set OY_DEBUG_OBJECTS + Ctrl q in

* make options editor [Ctrl E] selectable with OY_OFORMS_RENDERER
variable, default is still oyranos-xforms-fltk
**oyranos-config-fltk**
* show CMM selection tab by libOyranos changes
* show Effect selection by libOyranos changes
Compiling
---------
* remove cores hard dependency on libelektra, for instant compiling and
at a cost of no [D-Bus messages][13]
* include light weight libOpenICC for the default fallback DB handler
"oiDB"; The system library can be enforced with cmake
-DUSE_SYSTEM_OPENICC switch, similar to USE_SYSTEM_YAJL switch
* relax dependency on external libXcm; The system library can be
enforced with cmake -DUSE_SYSTEM_LIBXCM switch
* compile in [Travis CI][14] with no additional dependencies
* compile "SANE" module by default; The rank map is in a separately
installed file.
* compile Qt4 and Qt5 tool versions in the same build
* build [OS X Frameworks][15] and rename library names to camel case
Bug Fixes
=========
* known bugs are fixed, except a [multi-monitor display related
one][16], which is stalled to the next release
* many new tests where added to cover more old and new test cases
* use prelinearised curves by default in lcms modules to fix gamma 1.0
viewing
* use no adapt to white point by default in lcms modules to fix strange
white viewing with effects
* [Rename URI: bsd-license.php -> BSD-3-Clause][17]
* allow view of defect profiles in analysis tools without repair
