<b>Release 1.5.0</b>:
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li> Add FTDate entry in DBFFieldType
|
||
|
|
(see <a href="https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/308">GDAL Pull request 308</a>)
|
||
|
|
<li> Remove PROJ.4 dependency and functionality, causing removal of
|
||
|
|
SHPProject(), SHPSetProjection() and SHPFreeProjection() from contrib/shpgeo.h,
|
||
|
|
and removal of the contrib shpproj utility.
|
||
|
|
<li> shpopen.c: avoid being dependent on correctness of file size field in .shp. Fixes
|
||

|
||
|
|
<b>Release 1.4.1</b>:
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li> Fix a regression regarding re-writing the last shape
|
||
|
|
of a file (<a href="https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/7031">GDAL #7031</a>)
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<b>Release 1.4.0</b>:
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li> Old Makefile build replaced by autoconf/automake (by Sandro Mani)
|
||
|
|
<li> CMake build system added (by Alan W. Irwin)
|
||
|
|
<li> Added read support for ESRI .sbn spatial index
|
||
|
|
<li> Resynchronization with GDAL's Shapefile driver. Mostly cleanups.
|
||
|
|
SHPObject and DBFInfo structures extended with new members
|
||
|
|
<li> Add DBFSetLastModifiedDate() to modify the update date in the .dbf
|
||
|
|
<li> Add SHPSetFastModeReadObject() to read faster (but shapes got that way
|
||
|
|
share state in the handle, so only one shape at a time can be used)
|
||
|
|
<li> Add SHPRestoreSHX() to recreate a missing .shx from the .shp and
|
||
|
|
SHPOpenLLEx().
|
||
|
|
<li> Write DBF end-of-file character 0x1A by default.
|
||
|
|
This behaviour can be controlled with the DBFSetWriteEndOfFileChar()
|
||
|
|
function.
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<b>Release 1.3.0</b>:

||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li> Major rework to us application provided hooks for file io, and error reporting (SAHooks).
|
||
|
|
<li> Added contrib/Shape_PointInPoly.cpp from Marko Podgorsek.
|
||
|
|
<li> Added shapelib tools documentation from Eduardo Patto Kanegae.
|
||
|
|
<li> Added dbf deletion support.
|
||
|
|
<li> Added DBFAddNativeFieldType().
|
||
|
|
<li> Added DBFDeleteField(), DBFReorderFields() and DBFAlterFields() to
|
||
|
|
rework DBF schema.
|
||
|
|
<li> likely a variety of other changes - it has been eight years since 1.2.10!
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<b>Release 1.2.10</b>: Added SHPRewindObject() function, and shprewind utility
|
||
|
|
program. Added FTLogical, DBFReadLogicalAttribute() and
|
||
|
|
DBFWriteLogicalAttribute() (thanks to Olek Neyman). <p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<b>Release 1.2.9</b>: Good support for reading and writing NULL fields
|
||
|
|
in .dbf files, good support for NULL shapes and addition of the
|
||
|
|
DBFGetFieldIndex() functions (all contributed by Jim Matthews).<p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An upgraded shputils.c has been contributed by Bill Miller. Daniel
|
||
|
|
Morissette contributed DBFGetNativeFieldType(). Better error checking
|
||
|
|
for disk errors in dbfopen.c. Various other bug fixes and safety improvements.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<b>Release 1.2.8</b>: Added hacked libtool support (supplied by Jan)
|
||
|
|
and "rpm ready" install logic.<p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<b>Release 1.2.7</b>: Fix record size (was 4 bytes too long). Modify
|
||
|
|
SHPReadObject() to handle null shapes properly. Use atof() instead of
|
||
|
|
sscanf(). Support .DBF as well as .dbf.<p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<b>Release 1.2.6</b>: Now available under old MIT style license, or at the
|
||
|
|
users option, LGPL. Added the contrib directory of stuff from Carl Anderson
|
||
|
|
and the shptree.c API for quadtree based spatial searches.<p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<b>Release 1.2.5</b>: SHPOpen() now forcably uses "rb" or "r+b" access string
|
||
|
|
to avoid common mistakes on Windows. Also fixed a serious bug with .dbf
|
||
|
|
files with a 'F' field type.<p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<b>Release 1.2.4</b>: DBFOpen() will now automatically translate a .shp
|
||
|
|
extension to .dbf for convenience. SHPOpen() will try datasets with lower
|
||
|
|
and uppercase extension. DBFAddField() now returns the field number,
|
||
|
|
not TRUE/FALSE.<p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<b>Release 1.2.3</b>: Disable writing measures to multi-patches as ArcView
|
||
|
|
seems to puke on them (as reported by Monika Sester). Add white space
|
||
|
|
trimming, and string/numeric attribute interchangability in DBF API
|
||
|
|
as suggested by Steve Lime. Dbfdump was updated to include several
|
||
|
|
reporting options.<p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<b>Release 1.2.2</b>: Added proper support for multipatch (reading and
|
||
|
|
writing) - this release just for testing purposes.<p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<b>Release 1.2</b> is mostly a rewrite of the .shp/.shx access API to account
|
||
|
|
for ArcView 3.x 3D shapes, and to encapsulate the shapes in a structure.
|
||
|
|
Existing code using the shapefile library will require substantial changes
|
||
|
|
to use release 1.2.<p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<b>Release V1.1</b> has been built on a number of platforms, and used by a
|
||
|
|
number of people successfully. V1.1 is the first release with the xBase API
|
||
|
|
documentation.<p>
