JavaCPP v0.8 Release Notes
Release Date: 2014-04-28 // almost 10 years ago-
- Move from Google Code to GitHub as main source code repository
- Place build-time classes in the
org.bytedeco.javacpp.tools
package and bring out static nested classes, in an effort to avoid conflicts and ease development - Rename the
com.googlecode.javacpp
package toorg.bytedeco.javacpp
- Added
public long Pointer.address()
getter method, useful when one needs to subtract two pointers - Removed old NetBeans project files that cause a conflict when trying to open as a Maven project (issue javacv:210)
- Fixed compilation error on
FunctionPointer
classes containing no native callback methods - Added a
platform.library.path
property, such as "lib/armeabi/" in the case of the "android-arm" platform, to be used instead of "package/platform" (issue javacv:427) - Generalized references to the path of the Android NDK
- Improved a few small things in the set of
Pointer
classes - Introduced a simple
Logger
class and unified the logging output calls around it - Unified the property names with the
@Properties
and@Platform
annotations into a consistent naming scheme - Continued to clean up the
Parser
and improve the support of, for the most part, comments, enumerations, functions pointers, anonymousstruct
orunion
, templates, overloaded operators, namespaces, standard containers, default parameter arguments, multiple inheritance, custom names of wrapped declarators, and helper classes written in Java - Annotations such as
@Adapter
or@ByVal
are no longer ignored on parameters of getters or setters annotated with@Index
- Fixed some other corner cases in
Generator
and a few potential issues with the hacks inLoader
- Added for convenience to
PointerPointer
a generic parameter<P extends Pointer>
and the associatedget(Class<P> ...)
getters, as well asString
getters and setters - Passing a
Class
object as first argument to a native method that returns aPointer
now determines the runtime type of that returned object - Generalized somewhat more the compiler options used inside
linux-arm.properties
(issue javacv:418) - Unified the function pointer type of native deallocators to
void (*)(void*)
- Removed dependency on (efficient)
AllocObject()
andCallNonvirtualVoidMethodA()
JNI functions, which are not supported by Avian - Cleaned up and optimized
Generator
a bit, also fixing a crash that could occur whenFindClass()
returnsNULL
