Introduced in commit 032e95fad6, Makefile.am was apparently directly
edited instead of plugin-defs.pl. This also fixes a typo:
s/bust-dialog/busy-dialog/
This plug-in is used internally to show an interactive dialog in a
separate process, while the main process is blocking waiting for an
operation to complete. The dialog shows a custom message in a
GimpBusyBox, and potentially a "cancel" button, allowing the
operation to be canceled. Communication with the main process is
performed through a pair of file descriptors, passed to the plug-in
as arguments.
Thanks a lot to Dirk for contributing this, added him to AUTHORS.
Import the code from https://github.com/strukturag/heif-gimp-plugin.git
as of today. Merged the files into a single-file plug-in. Changed
the code a lot to match our coding style, but only formatting,
no logic changes.
Still uses deprecated GimpDrawable API and no GIO, but I wanted to do
actual code changes separately from the initial import. Also disabled
metadata support because updating that to GimpMetadata was too much
for the initial import.
so file-tiff-load and file-tiff-save are always built. Also move them
to their own folder plug-ins/file-tiff/ because they will soon share
some common GIO code.
Add a utility function to wrap PDB compat nodes in gimp:cast-format
ops, so we can use ops that are now implemented in linear RGB for
plug-in compat procedures, which are all supposed to work on gamma
corrected RGB.
Based on original patches from Hartmut Kuhse and modified
by Michael Natterer. Changes include:
- remove libexif dependency and add a hard dependency on gexiv2
- typedef GExiv2Metadata to GimpMetadata to avoid having to
include gexiv2 globally
- add basic GimpMetadata handling functions to libgimpbase
- add image and image file specific metadata functions to libgimp,
including the exif orientation image rotate dialog
- port plug-ins to use the new APIs
- port file-tiff-save's UI to GtkBuilder
- add new plug-in "metadata" to view the image's metadata
- keep metadata around as GimpImage member in the core
- update the image's metadata on image size, resolution and precision
changes
- obsolete the old metadata parasites
- migrate the old parasites to new GimpMetadata object on XCF load
