31 <b>CImg 1.2.9 Released</b>
32 <font size="-2">(2008/06/26, 13:00)</font></td></tr><tr><td><blockquote><font face="Arial,Helvetica"><font size="-1">
33 The CImg 1.2.9 package has been released. There are several changes and ameliorations.<br/><br/>
34 <font color="#D00000">
35 *-----------------------------<br/>
36 *-----------------------------<br/>
37 * Changes from 1.2.8 to 1.2.9<br/>
38 *-----------------------------<br/>
39 *-----------------------------<br/>
40 <br/>
41 * New features :<br/>
42 - Added new example file 'examples/captcha.cpp', which can be used to draw captcha images. This is a very
43 short and simple code, so it can be interesting for a first approach of CImg.<br/>
44 - Added functions 'CImg<T>::scale_2x()' and 'CImg<T>::scale_3x()' allowing to upscale an image
45 with a edge-directed algorithm (see 'http://scale2x.sourceforge.net/')/<br/>
46 - Added function 'CImg<T>::save_cpp()' allowing to save an image directly as a
47 C/C++ source code.<br/>
48 - Added function 'CImg<T>::draw_mandelbrot()' allowing to draw quadratic mandelbrot fractal set on images.<br/>
49 - Added a new demo effect 'Fish-Eye Magnification' in file 'examples/CImg_demo.cpp'.<br/>
50 - Added new fields in CImgDisplay for an easy test of keys pressing. Very useful for testing complicated combinations.<br/>
51 - Added functions to read/save gzipped files.<br/>
52 - Added compression option for .cimg files (requires the use of the 'zlib' library).<br/>
53 - Added color conversions for CMY and CMYK color bases.<br/>
54 <br/>
55 * Optimizations / Modifications :<br/>
56 - Big code cleaning and re-organization in file 'CImg.h', making the things more clear.<br/>
57 - Function 'CImg<T>::load_ascii()' has been modified to allow comments before specifying image
58 dimensions.<br/>
59 - Functions 'CImg[List]::print()' have been slightly modified to be more precise and clear. Also used
60 in functions 'CImg[List]::display()'.<br/>
61 - Improved functionalities of the image processing tool 'inrcast.cpp'.<br/>
62 - Improved 'CImg[List]<T>::display()' function allowing easy navigation and zooming in images.<br/>
63 - Add native use of ffmpeg libraries to load video sequences (Thanks to David Starkweather for his nice contribution !)<br/>
64 - Optimized function 'CImg<T>::permute_axes' for common used cases (planar to interleaved RGB and RGBA).<br/>
65 - Added parameter 'step_frame' in functions that can load video sequences,
66 i.e. CImg[List]<T>::load_yuv(), CImg[List]<T>::load_tiff(), CImg[List]<T>::load_ffmpeg(), so that frames
67 can be skipped when loading the video files.<br/>
68 - Removed parameter 'events_type' in CImgDisplay functions. By default, a display is always catching all user
69 events. Having different choices made slight problems between different architectures (and was not really
70 useful).<br/>
71 - Removed plugin 'plugins/toolbox3d.h'. Functions of the plug-ins are now natively integrated into the CImg.h file,
72 as well as the LibBoard library support.<br/>
73 - Renamed functions 'CImg<>::*pix?d()' to 'CImg<>::*at?()'.<br/>
74 <br/>
75 * Bug corrections :<br/>
76 - Small bug in functions 'CImg[List]::contains()' were corrected.<br/>
77 - Bug correction in function 'CImg<T>::[get_]stats()' : offset of min and max values were sometimes incorrect.<br/>
78 - Bug correction in CImgDisplay events for Windows-based OS. When mouse leaved a window, coordinates
79 didn't reset to -1 sometimes.<br/>
80 - Small non-computational bug correction in 'CImg<T>::symmetric_eigen()'.<br/>
81 - Removed g++ warning that occured when using 'libpng' ('warning: argument 'xxx' might be clobbered by 'longjmp' or 'vfork').<br/>
82 - Corrected small illumination bug with double sided 3D objects in CImg<T>::draw_object3d().<br/>
83 - And a lot of other small improvements and bug corrections...<br/>

98 * Changes from 1.2.7 to 1.2.8<br/>
99 *-----------------------------<br/>
100 *-----------------------------<br/>
101 <br/>
102 * New features :<br/>
103 - Added native Carbon support in CImgDisplay. Allows to run CImg on MacOSX without installing X11.
104 This is a beta support, so not activated by default. Define 'cimg_use_carbon' to enable it.
105 Many Thanks to Adrien Reboisson, Romain Blei and Jean-Marie Favreau for this nice contribution.
106 Any comments and contributions are welcome.<br/>
107 - Added variant of 'CImgList<T>::remove()' that can remove several images from a CImgList<T> list
108 at the same time.<br/>
109 - Added new numbered macros 'cimg_plugin1...8', for easy inclusion of multiple CImg plug-ins.<br/>
110 - Added plugin 'plugins/distance_saito.h' that implements the Saito's distance transform.<br/>
111 - Added function 'CImg<T>::blur_patch()' that performs a patch-based Tikhonov flow on the image.
112 Allows to denoise and regularize image quite well (is time-consuming anyway).<br/>
113 - Functions 'CImg<T>::load_tiff()', 'CImgList<T>::load_tiff()', 'CImg<T>::save_tiff()' and
114 'CImgList<T>::save_tiff()' has been (re)-coded. It is now possible to read/save multi-pages tif
115 image files worriless.<br/>
116 - Native support for 'icc' compiler (Intel C++ compiler) added in the Makefile.
117 Just type 'make CC=icc olinux' to compile using icc (offers nice performances in code optimization).<br/>
118 - Started support of OpenMP directives, to allow parallelization of CImg functions in order to
119 improve performances. Not few used, by this could change in the future.<br/>
120 - Added functions to load/save video sequences using the external tool FFMPEG (http://http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/).
121 'inrcast' is now able to read video sequences using FFMPEG.<br/>
122 - Added new color basis conversions : RGBtoHSI(), HSItoRGB(), HSLtoRGB() (Thanks to Cesar Martinez for his
123 contribution).<br/>
124 - Added example file 'examples/radon_transform.cpp', provided by David G. Starkweather (Thanks guy!).<br/>
125 <br/>
126 * Optimizations / Modifications :<br/>
127 - The main library file 'CImg.h' is now distributed under dual license CeCILL or CeCILL-C.<br/>
128 - Patched function 'CImg<T>::load_tiff()' for a better support of float-valued tiff images.<br/>
129 - Renamed 'CImg<T>::inverse()' as 'CImg<T>::invert()' and 'CImg<>::pseudoinverse()' as 'CImg<T>::pseudoinvert()'.<br/>
130 - Function 'CImg<T>::displacement_field()' has been modified to consider a multi-valued geometry
131 for motion detection (so color images are naturally taken into account now).<br/>
132 - Optimized functions 'CImg<T>::dilate()' and 'CImg<T>::erode()'
133 - Slightly optimized pixel access and display rendering functions.<br/>
134 - Used native mutex mechanism of X11 instead of the pthread library.<br/>
135 - Removed deprecated example file 'examples/pslider.cpp'.<br/>
136 - Renamed 'cimg::PI' to 'cimg::valuePI' to avoid compilation problems with some C++ compilers that define
137 the PI macro.<br/>
138 - Added specular type lightning in routines that draw 3D objects. Parameters 'specular_light' and
139 'specular_shine' replace the old 'ambient_light' parameter.<br/>
140 <br/>
141 * Bug corrections :<br/>
142 - Bug corrected in 'CImg<T>::draw_polygon()' : wrong scanlines were drawn with some complex polygons.<br/>
143 - Bug corrected in 'CImg<T>::convolve()' and 'CImg<T>::correlate()'. Happened when dealing with non square
144 masks with even dimensions.<br/>
145 - Bug corrected in 'CImg<T>::save_png()' and 'CImg<T>::load_png()' when dealing with 16 bits
146 images in little-endian proc.<br/>
147 - Bug corrected in 'CImg<T>::get_coordinates()' when dealing with 2-channels images.<br/>
148 - Bug corrected, 2-channels images were not correctly displayed (blue channel was used instead of being 0).<br/>
149 - And a lot of other small bug corrections...<br/>

189 (Thanks to François Lauze who provided me with some of its code).<br/>
190 - Added lot of new and useful neighborhood loop macros.
191 A new executable 'examples/generate_loop_macros.cpp' allows to generate
192 2D loops for arbitrary neighborhood size. A new plugin 'plugins/loop_macros.h' has been created, containing
193 all loops NxN (until N=32) and NxNxN (until N=8).<br/>
194 - Added separate component and YCbCr color base processing in options of 'examples/greycstoration.cpp'<br/>
195 - Added macros 'cimg_argument?()' allowing to retrieve command lines that are not options (not beginning with a '-').<br/>
196 <br/>
197 * Optimizations / Modifications :<br/>
198 - Macros with neighborhood loops have been extended and simplified. Some of the previous ones have been deleted,
199 others have appeared. Basically, no functionnalities have been removed.<br/>
200 - Macro 'cimg_version' is now 126 instead of 1.26, allowing easy comparison with integer values.<br/>

233 - Added functions 'CImg<T>::get_RGBtoBayer()' and 'CImg<T>::get_BayertoRGB()' that converts between
234 RGB and Bayer-coded representation of an image.<br/>
235 - Added functions CImg[List]<T>::min(), max(), mean(), variance(), get_stats(), and contains()
236 to deal easily with image statistics (class CImgStats is now obsolete and has been moved to
237 plugin 'plugins/deprecated.h').<br/>

294 without needing much memory.<br/>
295 - Slightly modified the header of .cimg files, so little/big endian info is stored.<br/>
296 - Reorganized some 'CImg[List]<T>::load_*()' functions, trying to avoid unnecessary memory usage.<br/>

298 (more precise, while using only integer calculus).<br/>
299 - Added versions of 'CImg<T>::draw_triangle()' and 'CImg<T>::draw_line()' that are able to map textures
300 while correctly handling the perspective correction, so that 3D mapped triangles look correct now.<br/>
301 <br/>
302 * Bug corrections :<br/>
303 - Corrected a small bug in get_coordinates() : channels of hyperspectral images with (dim>3) where

329 The CImg 1.2.3 package has been released. This is a quite important release, with some library modifications.
330 I guess upgrading to this version won't be a big problem, but this will be perhaps not as direct as latest releases.
331 The CHANGELOG is quite bigger than usual. A lot of work has been done during summer holidays, and I'm quite happy with
332 the modifications.<br/><br/>

336 * Changes from 1.2.2 to 1.2.3<br/>
337 *-----------------------------<br/>
338 *-----------------------------<br/>
339 <br/>
340 * New features :<br/>
341 - Added file 'example/tron.cpp', implementing a very simple version of the
342 famous 'Tron' game (2 players).<br/>
343 - Added constructor that create a CImg<T> from the content of a CImgDisplay window.<br/>
344 - Added support of the 'Board' library in plugin 'plugins/toolbox3d.h', allowing
345 the saving of 3D objects snapshots in SVG, EPS or FIG vector-graphics formats.<br/>
346 - Added function 'CImgList<T>::[get]_split()' that can split all image of an
347 an image list into a specified axis.<br/>
348 - Added sphere primitive in 'CImg<T>::draw_object3d()'.<br/>
349 - Added function 'CImg<T>::ellipsoid()' in 'plugins/toolbox3d.h'.<br/>
350 - Added useful new constructors 'CImg<T>()' and 'CImgList<T>()' with variable
351 numbers of parameters that can define images or image lists initialized with
352 user-specified values. Example :<br/>
353 CImg<float> img(3,2,1,1, 1,2,3, 4,5,6); defines image [ 1,2,3; 4,5,6 ].<br/>
354 CImgList<unsigned char> list(3,1,3,1,1, 1,0,0, 0,1,0, 0,0,1); defines
355 list of three vectors { [1;0;0], [0;1;0], [0;0;1] }.<br/>
356 - Added poly-bezier curve drawing, with 'CImg<T>::draw_spline()' overload.<br/>
357 - Added file 'examples/jawbreaker.cpp', implementing a very funny games featuring
358 small colored balls.<br/>
359 - Added demo '3D Reflection' in 'examples/CImg_test.cpp' showing some tricky uses
360 with the 3D capabilities of CImg.<br/>
361 - Added 'CImg<T>::draw_spline()' for drawing 2D cubic Bezier curves.<br/>
362 - Added plugin 'plugins/jpeg_buffer.h', allowing to read/write directly image data
363 from/to jpeg-coded memory buffers (Many thanks to Paolo Prete who made it possible !).<br/>
364 - Added optional support of the LAPACK library for matrix computation.<br/>
365 Define macro 'cimg_use_lapack' and link your code with LAPACK to enable it
366 (LAPACK routines are slightly faster routines than native CImg ones).<br/>
367 - Added function 'CImg<T>::get_constrast_LUT8()' function which returns a 256 colors
368 palette that has nice properties of being well contrasted when color indices are
369 close to eachothers.<br/>
370 - Added function 'CImg<T>::get_rainbow_LUT8()' that returns a rainbow-type palette.<br/>
371 - Added shortcuts CTRL+PAGE[UP,DOWN] in 'CImg<T>::display_object3d()' to brighten or
372 darken the 3D object.<br/>
373 <br/>
374 * Optimizations / Modifications :<br/>
375 - In 'CImg<T>::HSVtoRGB()' and 'CImg<T>::RGBtoHSV()', the H components is now expressed in degree.<br/>
376 - Improved multi-key testing with CImgDisplay.<br/>
377 - Added and modified some 'operator<<()' and 'operator>>()' in 'CImg<T>' and 'CImgList<T>'.<br/>
378 - Renamed 'plugins/primitives3d.h' to 'plugins/toolbox3d.h', and added a new example
379 'examples/toolbox3d.cpp' that shows how to use it.<br/>
380 - Renamed 'plugins/alias.h' to 'plugins/deprecated.h'.<br/>
381 - Moved function 'CImg<T>::resize_object3d()' to 'plugins/toolbox3d.h'.<br/>
382 - Simplified 'CImgList<T>::insert()' procedures, and removed functions 'CImgList<T>::insert_shared()'.<br/>
383 - Added functions parameters for almost all drawing functions, allowing the correct use of
384 patterns in line drawing (beware, some functions signatures have been slightly modified).<br/>
385 - Renamed 'CImg<T>::feature_selection()' as 'CImg<T>::get_coordinates()'
386 (for better coherence with overall function names). Include 'plugins/deprecated.h' for backward
387 compatibility.<br/>
388 - Optimized function 'CImg<T>::draw_line()'.<br/>
389 - Recoded function 'CImg<T>::draw_circle()', uses now the more precise Bresenham's circle
390 algorithm.<br/>
391 - Improved function 'CImg<T>::sphere()', in plugin 'toolbox3d.h', reducing drastically
392 the number of created points in the 3D mesh.<br/>
393 <br/>
394 * Bug corrections :<br/>
395 - Corrected some small bugs in CImg.h to allow the compilation with the Intel C++ Compiler (icc & icl).<br/>
396 - Corrected bug in copy constructor of CImgList<> that didn't make shared copy of images.<br/>
397 - Fixed bug in 'CImg<T>::symmetric_eigen()' : some negative eigenvalues where miscalculated when
398 their absolute values was also an eigenvalue of the considered matrix.<br/>
399 - And many small bug corrections...<br/>

444 Last night, while playing on the so-called <i>Jawbreaker</i> game in my Pocket PC, I wonder how hard it would be to

446 I think the result is quite cool so I decided to put it in the <i>CImg/examples</i> directory for the
447 next CImg 1.2.3 release. The source is surprisingly small (about 150 lines of code) and the game is complete.

463 - I decided to (re)enable LAPACK interfacing when doing matrix computations (such as SVD, eigenvalues, system solving).
464 LAPACK routines are well optimized and this could save time for applications that need it.
465 Of course, you are not forced to use LAPACK, since native matrix algorithms already exist in CImg, but this
466 may increase performances in some cases.<br/>
467 - Also, Thanks to Paolo Prete, a new plugin <i>plugins/jpeg_array.h</i> has been added. This adds useful functions in the CImg class to read and write jpeg-compressed image data directly in memory buffer. Very useful when dealing with jpeg images coming from the network for instance (ip webcam).<br/><br/>
468 These features are already implemented in the CVS version, so do not hesitate to test them and tell me if everything's going right.

510 I find CImg is becoming quite stable and I've less and less debugging from releases to releases, that's good news.

523 Basically, you can add/move/remove control points and a piecewise-polynomial curve passing through these points is computed. It's a quite small source (300 code lines with header and comments).
524 You can save control points, curve points or even the corresponding distance map. Maybe useful, I hope.

738 * Changes from 1.1.7 to 1.1.8<br/>
739 *-----------------------------<br/>
740 *-----------------------------<br/>
741 <br/>
742 * New features :<br/>
743 - Added conditional use of the FFTW3 library (http://www.fftw.org) allowing more flexibility and speed
744 on DFT computation, when used.<br/>
745 - Added new macro 'cimg_help()', displays arbitrary user-defined messages when program is invoked
746 with the option '-h' or '--help'.<br/>
747 - Added new macro 'cimglist_apply()' allowing to apply a single function to all members of a list :
748 Ex: cimglist_apply(list,blur)(3.0f);<br/>
749 - Added functions 'CImg<T>::resize_object3d()', 'CImgList<T>::resize_object3d()',
750 'CImg<T>::get_resize_object3d()' and 'CImgList<T>::get_resize_object3d()' to ease resizing and
751 centering 3d objects.<br/>
752 - Added function 'CImgDisplay::set_mouse()' to set the mouse pointer coordinates (X11 only).<br/>
753 - Added functions 'CImg<T>::atan()', 'CImg<T>::acos()', 'CImg<T>::asin()' and their get_* counterparts.<br/>
754 <br/>
755 * Optimizations / Modifications :<br/>
756 - 'cimg_debug' has new value signification. Can now choose between displaying error message on the console
757 or on modal windows, even when 'cimg_display_type' is not 0.<br/>
758 - Updated CImg presentation slides in 'documentation/slides_cimg.pdf', more complete now.<br/>
759 - Added new directories in path search for 'convert' and 'medcon' and 'temporary path'.
760 'convert' or 'medcon' found in the current directory './' now override the default ones.<br/>
761 - Added safer support for Windows 64bits.<br/>
762 - Improved version of 'cimg::info()' for debugging facilities. Now displays almost every
763 important library variables and parameters.<br/>
764 - Static version of CImg<T>::sequence() now return a column vector instead of a line.<br/>
765 - Slightly changed the tracking algorithm and few other things in 'examples/dtmri_view.cpp',
766 allowing more precision in the fiber computation.<br/>
767 - Modified the 'CImg<T>::feature_selection()' function : replaced the moving hatch by a static
768 one, less fun but also less time consuming. One small selection bug for 3D volumes has been
769 also corrected.<br/>
770 - Corrected line routine for 64bits architectures.<br/>
771 - Replaced 'CImg<T>::scroll()' by 'CImg<T>::translate()'.<br/>
772 - Replaced all 'cimg_map' by more coherent names based on 'cimg_for_*'. Same for 'cimglist_map'.<br/>
773 Compatibility with previous versions of CImg is ensured if 'cimg_strict' is not defined.<br/>
774 - Recoded functions to retrieve parts of the images : get_channel(), get_slice(), ...<br/>
775 - Improved the cimg::system() function.<br/>
776 - Added some tests and display extra warnings when saving images with wrong formats.<br/>
777 <br/>
778 * Bug corrections :<br/>
779 - Corrected small bug in 'CImg<>::blur_anisotropic()', 'examples/greycstoration.cpp' and 'plugins/greycstoration4integration.h'.<br/>
780 - And lot of minor bug corrections and optimizations .....<br/>

811 The CImg 1.1.7 package has been released. It adds cool new features and bug corrections, and proposes more elaborated
812 use of template objects.
813 You can go to the <a href="http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=96492">Download page</a> to get the latest 1.1.7 package.<br/><br/>
814 Here is the CHANGELOG :<br/>
815 <font color="#D00000">
816 *-----------------------------<br/>
817 *-----------------------------<br/>
818 * Changes from 1.1.6 to 1.1.7<br/>
819 *-----------------------------<br/>
820 *-----------------------------<br/>
821 <br/>
822 * New features :<br/>
823 - Added 'operator<<()' and 'operator>>()' for bit shift operations on all images pixels.<br/>
824 - Added most of mathematical operators in the 'CImgList' class.<br/>
825 - Added new demo 'Image Waves' in 'examples/CImg_demo.cpp'.<br/>
826 - Added mouse wheel support on Windows.<br/>
827 <br/>
828 * Optimizations / Modifications :<br/>
829 - Renamed class 'CImgl' into 'CImgList', also renamed macro 'cimgl_map' to 'cimglist_map'.<br/>
830 Backward compatibility is assured in 1.1.7 version, but think about replacing the old names<br/>
831 by the new ones for future CImg versions.<br/>
832 - Removed 'operator<<()' which appended an image to another one<br/>
833 - Recoded lot of non in-place mathematical operators to avoid numerical truncations.<br/>
834 It may have a great influence on your code. For instance writting '0.5+img' will result in a CImg<double>
835 image, even if 'img' was a CImg<float>.<br/>
836 - Recoded most of 'CImg<T>::get_resize()' function : linear interpolation performs now really faster, and
837 an additional parameter allows to select between different conditions for border values.<br/>
838 - Recoded 'CImg<T>::draw_line()' so that it now uses a classical Bresenham algorithm, avoiding rounding errors.<br/>
839 <br/>
840 * Bug corrections :<br/>
841 - Corrected some functions that did not performed correctly on shared images.<br/>
842 - Corrected small bug in 'plugins/primitives3d.h' in function 'CImg<T>::sphere()'.<br/>
843 - Corrected 'CImg<T>::feature_selection()' when displaying 'CImg<bool>' images.<br/>
844 - Corrected 'CImg<T>::load_cimg()' : is now able to load bool images.<br/>
845 - And lot of minor bug corrections and optimizations .....<br/>

856 Preparing the next CImg release 1.1.7, I've added a new small and cool effect in the example file <i>examples/CImg_demo.cpp</i>.
857 It roughly applies the wave equation on a height map on which a color image is mapped.
858 This height map is deforming itself according to falling particles, and all is displayed as a 3D gouraud rotating object.<br/>

894 Following a traditional two-month release period, I'm happy to announce the release of the CImg 1.1.5 package.<br/>
895 There are some important changes in the API, basically, it converges to something clear and coherent.<br/>
896 The changelog is :<br/>
897 <br/>
898 *-----------------------------<br/>
899 *-----------------------------<br/>
900 * Changes from 1.1.4 to 1.1.5<br/>
901 *-----------------------------<br/>
902 *-----------------------------<br/>
903 <br/>
904 * New features :<br/>
905 - Added Poisson noise capability in CImg<T>::noise() (This patch has been proposed by Jerome Boulanger)<br/>
906 - Added wheel mouse support in 'CImgDisplay', now used in 'CImg<>::feature_selection()' to go through slices of
907 3D volumes (unfortunately for X11 systems only).<br/>
908 - Added function 'CImgDisplay::toggle_fullscreen()' to allow easy and dynamic fullscreen switching of a display.<br/>
909 - Added screen resolution switching capabilities when using the Xrandr extension, under X11 (#define cimg_use_xrandr).<br/>
910 - Added support for ImageMagick++ built-in library (parts of the patch proposed by Christoph Hormann).<br/>
911 - And lot of small functions to ease the life...<br/>
912 <br/>
913 * Optimizations / Modifications :<br/>
914 - CeCiLL-C license now applies for the file 'CImg.h'. This license (close to the LGPL one) is more adapted
915 for library components as CImg. The examples stay in previous CeCiLL license (close to the GPL one).<br/>
916 - Recoded 'CImg<T>::draw_axe?()' (where ? can be 'X','Y' or 'XY') so that it can now be used to draw non-linear values along axes
917 (for instance logarithmic-varying labels).<br/>
918 - Attribute 'force' has been removed in 'CImgDisplay::resize()'.<br/>
919 - Recoded most constructors and assign functions in CImg<T> and CImgl<T>.<br/>
920 - Recoded most of the CImgDisplay class to allow more flexibility and refreshing speed.<br/>
921 - Renamed 'CImgDisplay::title()' to 'CImgDisplay::set_title()'. 'CImgDisplay::title' is now a class variable
922 that stores the current title of the display window.<br/>
923 - 'CImgDisplay::closed', 'CImgDisplay::resized', 'CImgDisplay::fullscreen' and 'CImgDisplay::moved' have been
924 renamed to 'CImgDisplay::is_closed', 'CImgDisplay::is_resized', 'CImgDisplay::is_fullscreen' and
925 'CImgDisplay::is_moved', for more coherent variable names.<br/>
926 - 'CImg<T>::display_object3d()' : can now specify an input pose matrix, as well as get the output pose matrix,
927 after the user rotated the object. Also, this function has been optimized.<br/>
928 <br/>
929 * Bug corrections :<br/>
930 - Corrected sorting bug in 'CImg<T>::symmetric_eigen()' and 'CImg<T>::SVD()'<br/>
931 - When using shared memory images, some 'CImg<T>::get_*()' methods returned a shared memory image too.<br/>
932 - And lot of minor bug corrections and optimizations .....<br/>
