1 Noteworthy changes in release 1.2.1 (3 February 2015) | |
2 | |
3 * Reinstated hts_file_type() and FT_* macros, which were available until 1.1 | |
4 but briefly removed in 1.2. This function is deprecated and will be removed | |
5 in a future release -- you should use hts_detect_format() etc instead | |

8 Noteworthy changes in release 1.2 (2 February 2015) | |
9 | |
10 * HTSlib now has a configure script which checks your build environment | |
11 and allows for selection of optional extras. See INSTALL for details | |
12 | |
13 * By default, reference sequences are fetched from the EBI CRAM Reference | |
14 Registry and cached in your $HOME cache directory. This behaviour can | |
15 be controlled by setting REF_PATH and REF_CACHE enviroment variables | |
16 (see the samtools(1) man page for details) | |
17 | |
18 * Numerous CRAM improvements: | |
19 - Support for CRAM v3.0, an upcoming revision to CRAM supporting | |
20 better compression and per-container checksums | |
21 - EOF checking for v2.1 and v3.0 (similar to checking BAM EOF blocks) | |
22 - Non-standard values for PNEXT and TLEN fields are now preserved | |
23 - hts_set_fai_filename() now provides a reference file when encoding | |
24 - Generated read names are now numbered from 1, rather than being | |
25 labelled 'slice:record-in-slice' | |
26 - Multi-threading and speed improvements | |
27 | |
28 * New htsfile command for identifying file formats, and corresponding | |
29 file format detection APIs | |
30 | |
31 * New tabix --regions FILE, --targets FILE options for filtering via BED files | |
32 | |
33 * Optional iRODS file access, disabled by default. Configure with --with-irods | |
34 to enable accessing iRODS data objects directly via 'irods:DATAOBJ' | |
35 | |
36 * All occurences of 2^29 in the source have been eliminated, so indexing | |
37 and querying against reference sequences larger than 512Mbp works (when | |
38 using CSI indices) | |
39 | |
40 * Support for plain GZIP compression in various places | |
41 | |
42 * VCF header editing speed improvements | |
43 | |
44 * Added seq_nt16_int[] (equivalent to the samtools API's bam_nt16_nt4_table) | |
45 | |
46 * Reinstated faidx_fetch_nseq(), which was accidentally removed from 1.1. | |
47 Now faidx_fetch_nseq() and faidx_nseq() are equivalent; eventually | |
48 faidx_fetch_nseq() will be deprecated and removed [#156] | |
49 | |
50 * Fixed bugs #141, #152, #155, #158, #159, and various memory leaks |
