    • Clean up Windows java.io.tmpdir even when program messes with java.class.path (issue #12)
    • In addition to direct NIO buffers, also accept as function arguments non-direct ones backed by arrays (issue bytedeco/javacpp-presets#36)
    • Fix @Virtual callback functions defined inside a @Namespace
    • Adjust TokenIndexer and Parser to handle #if, #ifdef, #ifndef, #elif, #else, and #endif preprocessor directives more appropriately, even when placed in the middle of declarations
    • Append @Documented to annotation types to have them picked up by Javadoc
    • Fix friend functions not getting skipped by the Parser
    • Add Info for __int8, __int16, __int32, and __int64 to InfoMap.defaults

    December 23, 2014
    • Fix multiple "platform.preload" or "platform.preloadpath" properties not getting considered by the Loader
    • Fix some Parser exceptions on valid declarations with template arguments, macro expansions, or overloaded cast operators, and make Info.javaName usable in the case of enum

    • Add new indexer package containing a set of Indexer for easy and efficient multidimensional access of arrays and buffers (issue javacv:317)
    • Use Long.decode() inside the Tokenizer to test more precisely when integer values are larger than 32 bits
    • Have the Parser produce @Name("operator=") ... put(... ) methods for standard C++ containers, avoiding mistaken calls to Pointer.put(Pointer) (issue bytedeco/javacv#34)
    • Let the Parser apply Info.skip in the case of macros as well
    • Remove warning log messages when using the @Raw annotation
    • Let @Virtual @MemberGetter annotated methods return member function pointers of functions defined with @Virtual, useful for frameworks like Cocos2d-x

    • 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 to org.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, anonymous struct or union, 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 in Loader
    • Added for convenience to PointerPointer a generic parameter <P extends Pointer> and the associated get(Class<P> ...) getters, as well as String getters and setters
    • Passing a Class object as first argument to a native method that returns a Pointer now determines the runtime type of that returned object
    • Generalized somewhat more the compiler options used inside linux-arm.properties (issue javacv:418)

  • v0.7 Changes

    January 06, 2014
    • Tweaked a few things to support RoboVM and target iOS, but JNI_OnLoad() does not appear to get called...
    • Upgraded references of the Android NDK to version r9c
    • Made Loader.load() work, within reason, even when all annotations and resources have been removed, for example, by ProGuard
    • Fixed compile error when using a FunctionPointer as parameter from outside its top-level enclosing class
    • Added new Pointer.deallocate(false) call to disable garbage collection on a per object basis, allowing users to deal with memory leaks in other ways
    • Changed the default compiler option -mfpu=vfpv for ARM to -mfpu=vfpv3-d16, because the former is not supported by Tegra 2 (issue javacv:366)
    • Removed call to Arrays.copyOf() in Loader.findLibrary(), which would prevent it from working on Android 2.2 (issue #39)
    • Fixed invalid code generated for FunctionPointer parameters annotated with @Const @ByRef
    • Fixed NullPointerException in Loader.load() when no @Platform annotation is provided (issue #38)
    • Parsing for anonymous struct or union and for typedef void (mapped to @Opaque Pointer) now outputs something

    • Fixed typedef of function pointers and a few code formatting issues with Parser
    • Supplied checks to prevent Loader.load() from throwing java.lang.IllegalStateException: Can't overwrite cause
  • v0.6 Changes

    September 15, 2013
    • Added new very preliminary Parser to produce Java interface files almost automatically from C/C++ header files; please refer to the new JavaCPP Presets subproject for details
    • When catching a C++ exception, the first class declared after throws now gets thrown (issue #36) instead of RuntimeException, which is still used by default
    • Fixed Java resource leak after catching a C++ exception
    • Upgraded references of the Android NDK to version r9
    • Added new Builder option "-copylibs" that copies into the build directory any dependent shared libraries listed in the @Platform(link={...}, preload={...}) annotation
    • Loader.getPlatformName() can now be overridden by setting the com.googlecode.javacpp.platform.name system property
    • Refactored the loading code for @Properties() into a neat Loader.ClassProperties class, among a few other small changes in Loader, Builder, Generator, and the properties
    • Included often used directories such as /usr/local/include/ and /usr/local/lib/ to compiler.includepath and compiler.linkpath default properties
    • New @Properties(inherit={Class}) value lets users specify properties in common on a similarly annotated shared config class of sorts
    • Fixed callbacks when used with custom class loaders such as with Web containers or frameworks like Tomcat and Play
    • Fixed using @StdString (or other @Adapter with @Cast annotations) on callbacks (issue #34), incidentally allowing them to return a String
    • By default, Builder now links to the jvm library only when required, when using the -header command line option (issue #33)
    • Incorporated missing explicit cast on return values when using the @Cast annotation
    • Fixed duplicate code getting generated when both specifying the output filename with -o <name> and using wildcards on packages containing nested classes
    • Let Buffer or arrays of primitive values be valid return and callback arguments, mostly useful when used along with the @StdVector annotation, or some other custom adapter
  • v0.5 Changes

    April 07, 2013
    • Upgraded references of the Android NDK to version r8e
    • Arguments of Pointer type now get handled as char* in cases when the position can be used for arithmetic
    • Worked around bug of InputStream.available() always returning 0 with the http protocol in Loader.extractResource(URL)

    March 03, 2013
    • Fixed potential problem with methods of FunctionPointer annotated with @Cast("const...")
    • Upgraded references of the Android NDK to version r8d
    • Fixed callbacks not working on Android anymore (issue #30)
    • Added some Javadoc to most of the code
    • To help diagnose UnsatisfiedLinkError thrown by Loader.load(), they have been augmented with a potential cause originating from the "preloading" of libraries, whose premature deletion has also been fixed
    • Provided new @Platform(library="...") annotation value to let users specify the name of the native library used by both Builder and Loader, where different classes with the same name get built together, which also works on nested classes (issue #29)
    • Added the ability to change the name of the class of function objects created when defining a FunctionPointer with the @Name annotation
    • Builder would go on a compile spree when all classes specified on the command line could not be loaded
    • Exported Loader.isLoadLibraries(), which always returns true, except when the Builder loads the classes
    • Made it possible to specify a nested class (with a '$' character in the name) on the command line
    • When Pointer.limit == 0, the methods put(), zero(), and asBuffer() now assume a size of 1
    • Fixed compiler error on 32-bit Mac OS X
  • v0.3 Changes

    November 04, 2012
    • Added Pointer.withDeallocator(Pointer) method to attach easily a custom Deallocator created out of a static void deallocate(Pointer) method in the subclass, including native ones such as @Namespace @Name("delete") static native void deallocate(Pointer)
    • A name starting with "::", for example @Name("::std::string") or @Namespace("::std"), now drops the remaining enclosing scope
    • Removed confusing cast value of @Adapter instead relying on new String[] value of @Cast to order multiple casts
    • Renamed various variables in Generator to make the generated code more readable
    • Fixed memory corruption when using an adapter or @ByRef on a function that returns by value an std::vector<> or std::string (issue #26)
    • Added Pointer.zero() method that calls memset(0) on the range
    • For easier memory management, more than one Pointer now allowed to share the deallocator when "casting" them
    • Upgraded references of the Android NDK to version r8b
    • Fixed JavaCPP_log() not printing correctly (issue #27)
    • Added functionality to access easily FunctionPointer callbacks by their names from C/C++: We can annotate them with @Name and build with the new -header option to get their declarations in a header file, while the Builder links with the jvm library by default
    • Loader now displays an informative error message when trying to use an undefined compiler.options with @Platform(options="") (issue #24)
    • Pointer.deallocator() would needlessly enqueue Deallocator objects pointing to the native NULL address
    • Added support for C++ "functors" based on the operator(), which gets used when annotating a FunctionPointer method parameter with @ByRef or @ByVal
    • For convenience in Scala, added apply() as an acceptable caller method name within a FunctionPointer, in addition to call()
    • Fixed @Cast not working along parameters with an @Adapter or when attempting to return the argument
    • Generator would ignore Pointer.position() in the case of @ByPtrPtr and @ByPtrRef parameters
    • Replaced hack to create a Pointer from a Buffer object with something more standard
    • Fixed Loader.sizeof(Pointer.class) to return the sizeof(void*)
    • In addition to methods and parameters, we may now apply @Adapter to annotation types as well, allowing us to shorten expressions like @Adapter("VectorAdapter<int>") int[] to just @StdVector int[], for std::vector<int> support, and similarly for @StdString and std::string
    • Fixed callback parameter casting of primitive and String types
    • An empty @Namespace can now be used to let Generator know of entities that are not part of any scope, such as macros and operators
    • Turned FunctionPointer into an abstract class with protected constructors, but if users still try to use it as function parameters, Generator now logs a warning indicating that a subclass should be used (issue #23)
    • Removed the out value of the @Adapter annotation: All adapters are now "out" by default, unless @Const also appears on the same element
    • Fixed Pointer.equals(null) throwing NullPointerException (issue #22)
    • @NoOffset would erroneously prevent sizeof() operations from getting generated
  • v0.2 Changes

    July 21, 2012
    • Fixed problems when trying to map java.lang.String to other native types than char*, such as unsigned char*
    • JavaCPP now uses the new (std::nothrow) operator for allocation, which guarantees that allocation of primitive native arrays won't throw exceptions, making it possible to build C++ exception free JNI libraries
    • Added new Pointer.limit property, mainly useful to get the size of an output parameter, as returned by an adapter specified with the @Adapter annotation
    • Renamed the capacity field of an adapter to size as it now maps to both Pointer.limit and Pointer.capacity (the latter only for new allocations)
    • Added Pointer.put(Pointer) method, the counterpart of Buffer.put(Buffer), to call the native memcpy() function on two Pointer objects
    • New @NoException annotation to reduce the size of generated code and optimize runtime performance of functions that are guaranteed not to throw exceptions, or for cases when we do not mind that the JVM may crash and burn
    • Trying to generate code for non-static native methods inside a class not extending Pointer now generates proper warning (issue #19)
    • Fixed regression where the @Adapter notation generates incorrect code for types other than Pointer (issue #20)
