xBRZ for Java 1.8.2

Maven Central artifacts

• 

Note

As usual, find the command-line xbrz-tool.jar along with the xbrz.cmd (Windows batch) and xbrz.sh (Linux shell) really executable jar variants attached here.

Highlights

• Important thread-safety fix (a0bf929)
• Few speculative performance optimizations (a652a83, b9bc973)
• A new XbrzFilter for the Image Producer/Consumer paradigm
• A new ColorDistance.integerYCbCr() providing better performance than (the default) ColorDistance.yCbCr(). While the performance is not better than ColorDistance.bufferedYCbCr(), it comes at no additional memory cost and possibly providing better quality compared to lower resolution buffer tables

Important

API breaking changes

These may or may not affect your current usage:

• XbrzImage.mrImage(Image) is now declared to return an intersection type <M extends Image & MultiResolutionImage> vs. previously AbstractMultiResolutionImage (c9b1e86)

• MultiResolutionCachedImage constructor no longer accepts variantProducer function. The class is now abstract and declares an abstract createResolutionVariant(width, height) : Image (bead258)

  If you haven't subclassed this one but used just the static factory MultiResolutionCachedImage.of(width, height, variantProducer), you shouldn't need any adjustments.
