List of changes in each version

v1.4

• Added support for the Sony IMX415 sensor by removing invalid sensor lines
  • BufferTo()
• Fixed NodeMap::UpdateEventNodes() and NodeMap::HasEventSupportedData() functions in python and .NET bindings
• Breaking changes
  • Remove support for third party transport layers and devices

v1.3

• Fix segfault when accessing certain nodes like height and width with peak python bindings on Raspberry Pi 4
• Fix incompatibility between compilers using python bindings on Debian 10 armhf (e.g. Raspberry Pi 4)
• Fix crash when throwing exceptions, caused by GenTL returning an empty error message
• Fix issues regarding peak_dynamic_loader.h

  • Event::RawData()
• Add methods for checking whether the node map contains a node with a given name (and type)
  • NodeMap::HasNode() to check whether a node with a given name exists
  • NodeMap::HasNode<T>() to check whether a node with a given name and type exists
• Add a method for checking whether a node is a feature, i.e. it can be reached via category nodes from a category node named "Root"
  • Node::IsFeature()
• Add a method for locking the NodeMap in multithreaded usage
  • NodeMap::Lock()
• Accept remote devices which report an URL string which does not strictly comply with the GenTL standard in respect to letter case
• Improve stability and error safety
• Improve Doxygen documentation
• Breaking changes
