Version 1.7.1-BETA:
- The new (as of v1.7.0) extraction code will no longer run out of file
- handles when extracting many (1000+) identical files.
+ Made more improvements to the XPRESS, LZX, and LZMS compressors.
- Library users can now initialize and de-initialize the library multiple
- times in one run of an application program.
+ The default compression mode for wimcapture is now LZX compression in
+ its default mode, which is the same as '--compress=maximum'.
- Library users will now receive WIMLIB_PROGRESS_MSG_WRITE_STREAMS
- messages more frequently when writing large WIM files.
+ You can now specify an optional integer compression level to the
+ '--compress' option; e.g. '--compress=lzx:75'.
- Added experimental new write flag:
- WIMLIB_WRITE_FLAG_SEND_DONE_WITH_FILE_MESSAGES.
+ Made a minor change to the LZMS compressor and decompressor to fix an
+ incompatibility with the Microsoft implementation. In the unlikely
+ event that you created an LZMS-compressed WIM with wimlib v1.7.0 or
+ earlier and a checksum error is reported when extracting files from it
+ with wimlib v1.7.1, decompress it with v1.7.0 then compress it with
+ v1.7.1.
+
+ Added 'verify' subcommand to wimlib-imagex.
+
+ Notable library changes:
+
+ Custom compressor parameters have been removed from the library
+ in favor of the simpler level-based API.
+
+ Decompressor parameters have been removed entirely.
+
+ Library users can now specify a custom file for warning and
+ error messages to be sent to, rather than the default of
+ standard error.
+
+ New progress messages:
+ WIMLIB_PROGRESS_MSG_EXTRACT_FILE_STRUCTURE,
+ WIMLIB_PROGRESS_MSG_EXTRACT_METADATA.
+
+ New function: wimlib_verify_wim().
Version 1.7.0:
Improved compression, decompression, and extraction performance.
