Postby hflynn » Tue Oct 13, 2015 10:35 am

Dear All,

Today we are releasing Bio-Formats 5.1.5, a point release focusing on bug fixing:

Java bug fixes include:
  • ImageJ plugins
    • fixed use of "Group files..." and "Open files individually" options
    • fixed placement of ROIs
    • fixed size of the "About Plugins > Bio-Formats Plugins" window
  • xsd-fu (code generation)
    • removed OMERO-specific logic
  • Metamorph
    • fixed physical Z size calculation
  • Gatan DM3/DM4
    • fixed physical pixel size parsing
  • BMP
    • added support for RLE compression
  • DICOM
    • updated to respect the WINDOW_CENTER tag
    • fixed image dimensions when multiple sets of width and height values are present
  • Fluoview and Andor TIFF
    • fixed physical Z size calculation
  • Imspector OBF
    • updated to parse OME-XML metadata (thanks to Bjoern Thiel)

C++ changes:
  • TIFF strip/tile row and column calculations corrected to compute the correct row and column count
  • several compiler warnings removed (false positive warnings in third-party headers disabled, and additional warnings fixed)
  • it is now possible to build with Boost 1.59 and compile with a C++ 14 compiler

The source release is now provided in both tar.xz and zip formats.

The documentation has also been updated, with substantial updates to the format pages:
  • improved linking of reader/writer classes to each format page
  • improved supported metadata pages for each format
  • updated format page formatting for clarity
  • new developer documentation for adding and modifying format pages

Full details can be found at http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/supp ... s-new.html

The software is available at:

The C++ superbuilds and platform builds will be released shortly.
