ZBar Barcode Reader News
========================
Version 0.23
============
Update ZBar for it to work with updated library versions, making it
compatible with either Gtk2 or Gtk3 and either Python2 or Python3.
As part of the new port, it is now possible to use ZBar Gtk bindings
not only with python2/python3, but also on other languages, as it now
uses GObject Introspection- GIR, with is a method to allow using libraries
developed on one language on others. Several languages support it.
On Windows side, support for DirectShow was added.
Version 0.22.2 (2019-04-29)
===========================
Some fixes to another set of Windows issues and to support Java 11.
Version 0.22.1 (2019-04-25)
===========================
Some fixes to allow building ZBar on Windows with MinGw.
Version 0.22 (2019-02-20)
=========================
Lots of improvements at zbarcam-qt, allowing it to fully configure the
decoders that will be used, and the options that will be used at the
decoders. Some improvements at the image scanner logic and plugin
selection.
Version 0.21 (2019-02-12)
=========================
Added support for SQ code, and the ability of compiling ZBar with the
LLVM/Clang compiler. Several bugs fixes and enhancements are also found
in this release; existing users are encouraged to upgrade.
Version 0.20.1 (2018-08-08)
===========================
Minor changes at ZBar, in order to adapt to modern distributions
with are removing /usr/bin/python in favor of just using python2.
Also, updated some python2 scripts to work with modern distros,
where the Image module is now inside PIL.
Version 0.20 (2017-04-11)
=========================
As upstream didn't have any version since 2009, created a ZBar fork at
linuxtv.org. This release improves a lot V4L2 support, by using libv4l2
to handle formats that are alien to ZBar, making it compatible with a lot
more webcam models. Qt support was also updated, making it compatible
with Qt5. ZBar now have two other GUI applications (zbarcam-qt and
zbarcam-gtk). With zbarcam-qt, it is now possible to adjust the camera
controls, making easier to read barcodes using a camera.
Version 0.10 (2009-10-23)
=========================
ZBar goes 2D! This release introduces support for QR Code, developed
by our new project member, Timothy Terriberry. Timothy is an image
processing master, providing this sophisticated functionality using
only integer arithmetic and maintaining an extremely small image
size. Feel free to drop in on #zbar over at freenode to welcome
Timothy (aka derf) to the project and congratulate him on his awesome
work.
Several bugs fixes and enhancements are also found in this release;
existing users are encouraged to upgrade.
Version 0.9 (2009-08-31)

problems.

addresses missing checks that will improve reliability with
excessively noisy images.
Version 0.6 (2009-02-28)

the new XML output includes the page where each barcode is found.
Camera support has been significantly improved, including the
addition of JPEG image formats. Perl bindings make it even easier
to write a document or video scanning application. Finally, we are

Windows!
