Hi guys, Finally... tonight I made a new release. I got tired of referring people to the Subversion repository all the time :-)
The slow release cycle is due to me working on other projects. I'm actually not using PEL for something right now, so it has become a low priority project for me. Therefore, if you think PEL is cool, then please consider joining the project to work actively on it. Send a mail to this list... In any case, the release notes follow: PEL Version 0.9.1 December 19th 2006 ************************************* Notes: Added setExif(), getExif(), and clearExif() methods as a convenient and recommended way of manipulating the Exif data in a PelJpeg object. Improved PelEntryTime to deal with timestamps in the full range from year 0 to year 9999. Removed PelTag::getDescription() because the descriptions were out of context. A new example demonstrates how to resize images while keeping the Exif data intact. Added a Japanese and updated the French and Danish translations. Changes: * The constructors of PelJpeg and PelTiff can now take an argument which is used for initialization. This can be a filename (equivalent to calling loadFromFile()), a PelDataWindow (equivalent to load()). The PelJpeg constructor will also accept an image resource. * Added PelJpeg::setExif(). This method should always be used in preference to PelJpeg::insertSection() and PelJpeg::appendSection(). One should actually not be using appendSection() unless one is very sure that the image has not been ended by a EOI marker. * Added PelJpeg::getExif(). This method is the new preferred way of obtaining the PelExif object from a PelJpeg object. Updated the examples and code to make use of it. * An example of how to resize images while keeping the Exif data intact is given in resize.php. * The PelTag::getDescription() method is no more. The descriptions were taken directly from the Exif specification and they were often impossible to translate in a meaningful out of context because they had references to figures and tables from said specification. * Fixed bug in edit-description.php which still called the constructor of PelIfd in the old pre-0.9 way. * Updated documentation of PelIfd to make it clearer that it can be used as an array because it implements the ArrayAccess SPL (Standard PHP Library) interface. * Added Japanese translation by Tadashi Jokagi. * Update by David Lesieur of the French translation. * Rewrote entry for version 0.9 in NEWS to highlight the API incompatible changes made from version 0.8. * Renamed test.php to run-tests.php and implemented a simple search functionality for finding the SimpleTest installation. * Rewrote make-release.sh script to work with Subversion. -- Martin Geisler --- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- http://mgeisler.net Read, write, create Exif data in PHP with PEL: http://pel.sf.net Take control of your webserver with PHP Shell: http://phpshell.sf.net
