The CGAL Open Source Project is pleased to announce the release 4.8 The CGAL Open Source Project is pleased to announce the release 4.8.1
of CGAL, the Computational Geometry Algorithms Library. of CGAL, the Computational Geometry Algorithms Library.
Besides fixes to existing packages, the following has changed since Version 4.8.1 is a bug-fix release for version 4.8. The list of fixed bugs
CGAL 4.7: can be seen on Github:
o General https://github.com/CGAL/cgal/issues?q=milestone%3A4.8.1
- The support for Qt3 is dropped and all demos using it got removed.
o Installation
- Starting with Visual C++ 2015 we no longer require Boost.Thread as we
use the C++11 keyword thread_local and the C+11 class std::mutex.
- The same holds for g++ 4.8 or later when the C++11 standard is used.
o Optimal Transportation Curve Reconstruction (new package)
- This package implements a method to reconstruct and simplify 2D point
sets. The input is a set of 2D points with mass attributes, possibly
hampered by noise and outliers. The output is a set of line segments
and isolated points which approximate the input points.
o 3D Mesh Generation
- Add support of 3D gray level images as input for the tetrahedral mesh
generation.
o Polygon Mesh Processing
- Add a new triangle-based isotropic remeshing algorithm for
triangulated surface meshes.
o Point Set Processing
- Add Concurrency_tag to the functions compute_average_spacing(),
edge_aware_upsample_point_set(), jet_estimate_normals(),
jet_smooth_point_set(), and pca_estimate_normals().
