Hello,
I am a software engineer at Masstech Innovations Inc., and we would like to use
OIIO as a third-party library mostly for reading various formats (initially
images, but not limited to them). I have managed to build OIIO through Vcpkg,
CMake and Visual Studio 2019, and added some code as a necessity:
* reading DPX images directly from memory (in LibDpx and OIIO DPX
interface), and
* fixing Windows extended-length / long paths ("\\?\" style
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/naming-a-file#maximum-path-length-limitation
)
I have these questions:
1. How can I make a pull request on OpenImageIO/oiio? -- I have towards zero
experience with Github (I use SourceTree as a Git GUI and MS Azure DevOps).
2. On which branch should i make the pull request? -- My changes and
additions to the code are relative to the current "release" branch
("Release-2.1.17.0").
3. While reading DPX images from memory i have to name the "virtual" files
somehow, and I have given them unique names in the form "in_<ID>.dpx", being in
a multi-threaded/tasking environment. Can I drop the unique names without
having a concurrency problem? -- I am unsure how OIIO behaves, and maybe this
was overkill by me.
I will send a separate second e-mail on a different topic (regarding a loading
problem we have) -- I hope these emails are not time-burdening.
Best wishes,
Radu Arjocu
