Hi everyone,<br><br>Over the past couple of days, the ImgLib developers have consolidated the various branches of ImgLib2, and everything is now merged to master.<br><br>Because many people are still using ImgLib1, we decided to change the ImgLib2 package prefix to net.imglib2, and leave the ImgLib1 code intact and in place (with package prefix mpicbg.imglib). Thus, the master branch now has two subtrees: imglib1 and imglib2. Because they have different package prefixes and different Maven identifiers, it is now possible to import the whole enchilada into your IDE of choice, or compile the entire thing from the command line using Maven, without any conflicts or overlap. (You could even write a program that used both ImgLib1 and ImgLib2 if you wish, though we don't recommend it.)<br>
<br>We also simplified the project directory names. It now looks like this:<br><br>imglib.git<br> -> imglib1<br> --> algorithms<br> --> core<br> --> io<br> etc.<br> -> imglib2<br> --> algorithms<br>
--> core<br> --> io<br> etc.<br>
<br>Because we are still finishing the migration to ImgLib2, only a subset of the ImgLib2 projects currently compile. However, the top-level ImgLib2 Maven POM includes only those projects that compile (imglib, imglib-io and imglib-ui), with the others (e.g., imglib-algorithms) commented out until they have been migrated. Hence, you should be able to compile the top-level Maven project with no errors. The downside is that if you wish to import non-compiling project into an IDE, you will need to explicitly select the relevant project folder.<br>
<br>If all goes well, the ImageJDev Hudson (<a href="http://dev.imagejdev.org:8080/">http://dev.imagejdev.org:8080/</a>) will build ImgLib-daily tonight as usual, and continue serving resources
(e.g., Javadocs) with no interruption of service.<br>
<br>
Remaining tasks include:<br>1) Update Fiji Fakefiles to reflect the new directory structure above.<br>2) Create POM for imglib2/examples subtree.<br>3) Fix PolygonRegionOfInterestTest's testRealRandomAccess and testSize (currently commented out).<br>
4) Unify test package prefixes (move the packageless ones, and those with package prefix "tests").<br><br>The ImageJDev team has already begun migrating the ImageJ2 codebase from ImgLib1 to ImgLib2, and hopes to complete that work by the end of the week.<br>
<br>Thanks to Stephan Saalfeld, Tobias Pietzsch and Lee Kamentsky for their help with the merge! Please let us know if you have any questions or problems with it.<br><br>Regards,<br>Curtis<br><br>
