## Introduction
|
|
|
|
Boost.GIL is a part of the [Boost C++ Libraries](http://github.com/boostorg).
|
|
|
|
The Boost Generic Image Library (GIL) is a **C++11** library that abstracts image
|
|
representations from algorithms and allows writing code that can work on a
|
|
variety of images with performance similar to hand-writing for a specific image type.
|
|
|
|

## Requirements
|
|
|
|
**NOTE:** The library source code is currently being modernized for C++11.
|
|
|
|
The Boost Generic Image Library (GIL) requires:
|
|
|
|
- C++11 compiler (GCC 4.9, clang 3.3, MSVC++ 14.0 (1900) or any later version)
|
|
- Boost header-only libraries
|
|
|
|
Optionally, in order to build and run tests and examples:
|
|
|
|
- Boost.Filesystem
|
|
- Boost.Test
|
|
- Headers and libraries of libjpeg, libpng, libtiff, libraw for the I/O extension and some of examples.
|
|
|
|
## Branches

|
|
|
The official repository contains the following branches:
|
|
|
|
- [**master**](https://github.com/boostorg/gil/tree/master) This
|
|
holds the most recent snapshot with code that is known to be stable.
|
|
|
|
- [**develop**](https://github.com/boostorg/gil/tree/develop) This
|
|
holds the most recent snapshot. It may contain unstable code.

## Contributing (We Need Your Help!)
|
|
|
|
If you would like to contribute to Boost.GIL, help us improve the library
|
|
and maintain high quality, there is number of ways to do it.
|
|
|
|
If you would like to test the library, contribute new feature or a bug fix,
|
|
see the [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) where the whole development
|
|
infrastructure and the contributing workflow is explained in details.
|
|
|
|
You may consider performing code reviews on active
|
|
[pull requests](https://github.com/boostorg/gil/pulls) or help
|
|
with solving reported issues, especially those labelled with:
|
|
|
|
- [status/need-help](https://github.com/boostorg/gil/labels/status%2Fneed-help)
|
|
- [status/need-feedback](https://github.com/boostorg/gil/labels/status%2Fneed-feedback)
|
|
- [need-minimal-example](https://github.com/boostorg/gil/labels/status%2Fneed-minimal-example)
|
|
|
|
Any feedback from users and developers, even simple questions about how things work
