| 11 | +This version introduces ABI changes relative to older major releases, so to |
| 12 | +preserve ABI compatibility it might be necessary to define the macro |
| 13 | +<TT>OPENVDB_ABI_VERSION_NUMBER=</TT><I>N</I>. |
| 14 | +</BLOCKQUOTE> |

| 17 | +<BLOCKQUOTE> |
| 18 | +OpenEXR 2 and Python 2 are no longer supported. |

| 26 | +OpenVDB: |
| 27 | + Improvements: |
| 28 | + - Removed last traces of Boost when <TT>OPENVDB_USE_DELAYED_LOADING</TT> is <TT>OFF</TT> |

| 32 | +NanoVDB: |
| 33 | + API Changes: |
| 34 | + - Minor version changed from 4 to 6 (major version is unchanged since the ABI |
| 35 | + is preserved) |
| 36 | + - @c nanovdb::Vec3R is deprecated. Use @c nanovdb::Vec3d instead. |
| 37 | + - <TT>nanoToOpenVDB</TT> now accepts the index of the NanoVDB grid contained |
| 38 | + inside of a GridHandle to be converted to OpenVDB. |
| 39 | + - DataTypes are now public in all node types. |
| 40 | + - GridMetaData can be copied. |
| 41 | + - Major improvements to <TT>GridBuilder.h</TT>, which allows users to |
| 42 | + construct grids with random access on the host |
| 43 | + - The move constructor now requires the GridBuffer to actually contain a valid |
| 44 | + grid |
| 45 | + - Moved <TT>CudaDeviceBuffer.h</TT> to <TT>cuda/CudaDeviceBuffer.h</TT> |
| 46 | + - Added @c nanovdb::pi() |
| 47 | + - Introduced a new extendable API for acceleration of custom random-access |
| 48 | + get/set methods on ValueAccessor, e.g. @c getValue(ijk), @c isActive |
| 49 | + (ijk), @c probeValue(ijk, val). |
| 50 | + - Added @c nanovdb::BitFlags. |
| 51 | + - Added @c minComponentAtomic and @c maxComponentAtomic methods on the GPU |
| 52 | + to @c nanovdb::Vec2 and @c nanovdb::Vec3. Added @c expandAtomic and @c |
| 53 | + intersectAtomic on @c nanovdb::BBox, and @c expandAtomic in @c |
| 54 | + nanovdb::Coord. |
| 55 | + - Added @c nanovdb::Map constructors. |
| 56 | + - <TT>Mask:: DenseIterator</TT>, <TT>Mask:: setOnAtomic</TT>,<TT>Mask:: |
| 57 | + setOffAtomic</TT>. |
| 58 | + - Improved and renamed device function that converts voxels into a grid - @c |
| 59 | + nanovdb::cudaVoxelsToGrid |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +@par |
| 62 | + New Features: |
| 63 | + - Added a new grid class called IndexGrid in 4 flavors (Index, OnIndex, |
| 64 | + IndexMask, OnIndexMask). |
| 65 | + - Several new ways to construct and modify NanoVDB grids on the GPU. See |
| 66 | + <TT>CreateNanoGrid.h</TT> and <TT>CudaPointsToGrid.cuh</TT>. |
| 67 | + - New device function to convert points into a compact grid - |
| 68 | + nanovdb::cudaPointsToGrid |
| 69 | + - Added <TT>cuda/CudaUtils.h</TT> and <TT>cuda/GpuTimer.h</TT> with cuda |
| 70 | + utility functions |
| 71 | + - Added <TT>cuda/CudaPointToGrids.cuh</TT> that constructs device grids from |
| 72 | + points or voxels |
| 73 | + - Added <TT>cuda/CudaIndexToGrid.cuh</TT> that converts IndexGrids and values |
| 74 | + into regular Grids |
| 75 | + - Added <TT>cuda/CudaSignedFloodFill.cuh</TT> that performs signed-flood |
| 76 | + filing on SDF on the GPU |
| 77 | + - Added <TT>cuda/CudaAddBlindData.cuh</TT> that adds blind data to an existing |
| 78 | + grid on the GPU |
| 79 | + - Added <TT>cuda/CudaGridChecksum.cuh</TT> that computes <TT>CRC32</TT> |
| 80 | + checksums of grids on the GPU |
| 81 | + - Added <TT>cuda/CudaGridHandle.cuh</TT> that handles grids on the GPU |
| 82 | + - Added <TT>cuda/CudaNodeManager.cuh</TT> that constructs a NodeManager on the |
| 83 | + GPU |
| 84 | + - Introduced new (dummy) build-type @c nanovdb::Points and @c |
| 85 | + nanovdb::GridType::PointIndex |
| 86 | + - Introduced new types @c nanovdb::GridType::Vec3u16 and @c |
| 87 | + nanovdb::GridType::Vec3u8 used for compressed representations of point |
| 88 | + coordinates as blind data |
| 89 | + - Added <TT>PrefixSum.h</TT> for concurrent computation of prefix sum on the |
| 90 | + host |
| 91 | + - <TT>Primitives.h</TT> can now create grids on the CPU with SDF, FOG, and |
| 92 | + point or torus |
| 93 | + |
| 94 | +@par |
| 95 | + Improvements: |
| 96 | + - Transition from <TT>C++11</TT> to <TT>C++17</TT> in <TT>NanoVDB.h</TT> and |
| 97 | + its tools |
| 98 | + - Improve NanoVDB Build Traits. |
| 99 | + - <TT>CreateNanoGrid.h</TT> is replacing <TT>GridBuilder.h</TT>, |
| 100 | + <TT>IndexGridBuilder.h</TT> and <TT>OpenToNanoVDB.h</TT>. |
| 101 | + - Syncing <TT>PNanoVDB.h</TT> with <TT>NanoVDB.h</TT>. |
