Two new functions have been added to the library to fully + support this: wimlib_write_to_fd() and wimlib_extract_image_from_pipe(). + + wimlib now preserve WIM integrity tables by default, even if + WIMLIB_WRITE_FLAG_CHECK_INTEGRITY is not specified. This changes the + behavior of `wimlib-imagex' whenever the WIM being operated on contains + an integrity table and the '--check' option is not specified. + + `wimlib-imagex capture' now creates LZX-compressed WIMs by default + (when --compress is not specified). This provides the best compression + ratio by default, which is usually what is desired, at a cost of some + speed. + + Security descriptors are now extracted correctly on Windows. + + `mkwinpeimg' now supports grabbing files from the WAIK supplement rather + than the WAIK itself. + + The test suite no longer fails when run in a locale where the decimal + separator is not a period. + + WIMLIB_PROGRESS_MSG_EXTRACT_DENTRY has been removed and + WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_VERBOSE re-reserved for future use. + + The extraction code has been rewritten and it will now be easier to + support new features on all supported backends (currently Win32, UNIX, + and NTFS-3g). For example, hard-linked extraction mode (--hardlink) is + now supported on all backends, not just UNIX. + + A few changes were made to the error codes returned by library routines. + +Version 1.4.2: + Fixed bug in `wimlib-imagex export' that made it impossible to export an + image from a WIM that is readonly at the filesystem level. + + Return error code rather than segfaulting when trying to list files from + a non-first part of a split WIM. + + Joining a WIM will now preserve the RP_FIX and READONLY flags. + Version 1.4.1: On Windows, paths given to wimlib-imagex are now treated case insensitively. @@ -40,7 +85,9 @@ Version 1.4.1: Progress callbacks have been added to wimlib's wimlib_update_image() function. - Added wimlib_get_wim_info() and wimlib_set_wim_info() functions. + Added wimlib_get_wim_info(), wimlib_set_wim_info(), + wimlib_iterate_dir_tree(), and wimlib_iterate_lookup_table() functions + to the library.
