Release 1.14.1 Maintenance release with minor bug fixes and enhancements. Maintenance release with minor bug fixes and enhancements. Other changes in this edition include: - Important note for all users, since 1.13.0 a bug is fixed in the table behavior. This can cause problems for users expecting the "buggy" result. See the issue on github for more details. - Since a approximately 1.12.0 nom-tam-fits uses java.util.logging for all logs, the details what and where to log to can therefore be configured freely. - In case of long strings the difference between a null comment and an empty string was not detected correctly. - Image compression support for the null pixel mask, this allows correct NaN with the use of lossy compression's. *** Changes to compile and run time behavior (start with v1.14) *** The procedure for building the library from the source is substantially revised. We recommend that users who wish source access download from the GitHub site (http://github.com/nom.tam.fits/nom.tam.fits) and use Maven for building. However building from the source jar is not difficult and full instructions are given in the BUILD documentation file at http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/heasarc/fits/java/v1.0/BUILD . Issues include: - Source files may include UTF8 characters so that compilation should use the -encoding UTF8 flag - There are some external dependencies needed for compilation (but not generally for runtime except when decompressing bzip compressed files) - The library uses resources files that are anticipated to be in specific locations. Thus users should normally use the library compiled into a jar file to ensure that these are found when needed. - The decompression of tile-compressed images uses worker threads which must either be terminated using the appropriate method in FitsFactory or by explicitly calling System.exit() to end the program. *****************************************************
