Version 1.4
This is version 1.4.
Many thing works, mostly in a stable way (but read on)
* More on the picture viewer. Needs a lot of extra work with decoding/loading speed. Has muliple issues.
* tagging
tagtree handling now implemented ca 100%: Rename, move, delete, create all ok.
icon context handling implemented ca 100%: tag, untag, gotoicon, gototag, copyclip all ok.
* Stuff
Autosize to display on startup
Next:
Almost done with exif parser
Known stuff
This version (1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 as well) is hit by a litmit in qt's ability to handle pixmap'ed widgets,
meaning that pixgui crashes with no warning when more than ca 3000 pictures are fetched using a
tag or a similar number of pictures are fetched from a directory, and this tag is chosen for display.
Pending:
Exif implementation
autoclose of singletons
Recurse-import #2
blacklist
on-demand database ressource control
backup/restore
INSTALLATION:
Win32: unzip, run pixgui.exe.
Linux: Check your
* Qt-environment. You need dev set. Use your favourite pack dealer or visit http://qt.nokia.com/downloads
* Berkeley DB Environment You need dev set. Pack dealer or go to http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/berkeleydb/downloads
* untar to somewhere, go there
* run "<path-to>/qmake". (fx /opt/QtSDK/Desktop/Qt/473/gcc/bin/qmake)
* run "make"
* run "./pixgui"
Have fun, comments appreciated!

Version 1.3
This is version 1.3.
Many thing works, things are stable (but read on)
* New picture viewer implemented. Needs a lot of extra work with decoding/loading speed, but is otherwise somewhat ok.
* tagging
tagtree handling implemented ca 90%.
icon tag handling implemented ca 100%
* Stuff
Recurse import. Very crude, almost not there.
Memory management and thread control optimisation
This version (1.0, 1.1, 1.2 as well) is hit by a litmit in qt's ability to handle pixmap'ed widgets,
meaning that pixgui crashes with no warning when more than ca 3000 pictures are fetched using a
tag or a similar number of pictures are fetched from a directory, and this tag is chosen for display.
In order to minimise the widget usage, focus will be on icon display in a coming version. For the next
one, jpeg decoding speed will be the issue.
Pending:
Icon display
Recurse-import #2
Exif implementation
Deletion of tags
blacklist
on-demand database ressource control
backup/restore
