Xinc: 2.0 alpha version for download
124936
Xinc is a free open source continuous integration server written in PHP 5. The builder of choice is Phing and it comes with builtin SVN support. Currently Xinc 2.0 is under heavy development. A beta version of Xinc 2.0 will be released until end of 2007.   Today the alpha version of Xinc 2.0 has been released. The GUI of the current build does not work properly with IE, a fix for that is coming up in the next days. You can download the alpha release in the download section or directly from:  - http://www.xinc.eu - http://code.google.com/p/xinc/downloads/list

Ilia Alshanetsky has an announcement on his blog today about the release of the next candidate for the upcoming PHP 5.2 series - PHP 5.2.0RC5.    After 2 weeks of inaction 5.2.0 final release is finally in sight. A few minutes ago I've released the last (I mean it this time) release candidate of 5.2.0, RC5. If all goes well a week from now 5.2.0 final will be out ready for use. In the meantime I'd like to ask once again that everyone try this RC, which can downloaded from here.   I don't think you'd be able to find any major issues or regressions in this RC, but if you do certainly let me know, if necessary RC6 is not out of the question.    The more this new release is downloaded and tested, the faster we all get PHP 5.2 - so get out there and get testing!   The Windows builds have also already been created courtesy of Edin Kadribasic.

This release is a minor version change which fixes numerous bugs and provides enhancements as well.  Tcllib 1.10 release notes =========================  Hello World, welcome to Tcllib 1.10.  This release is a minor version change which fixes numerous bugs and provides enhancements as well, to existing modules, and via newly added modules.  Availability ------------  The released distributions can be downloaded from:    Available are gzipped, zipped, and bzipped tarballs, and a starkit.  Installation ------------  * For the starkit and starpack just execute the file and a GUI based   installer will pop up. Fill out the paths, then run the installation.  * For the tarballs unpack them in some directory /foo, then run the   file "/foo/installer.tcl". This will invoke the same installer used   in the starkit and starpack.    Note: While the installer will open up a GUI by default (and if   possible), a command line based installation is provided too. Run the   installer with the option "-help" to see what is available.

KGuitar is powerful KDE-based music tabulature editor with support of guitar, drums, classic note scores, MIDI synthesizer output, chord, scales, modes, melody and rhythm construction and analysis tools, lots of tab effects, Guitar Pro files import.   After a long period of silence, I'm pleased to announce KGuitar 0.5.1 - a major bugfix release that covers most of issues for the last few years :)      * Compatiblity fixes: added support for autoconf 2.61, automake 1.10, gcc 4.2. Removed last bits of qt2->qt3 transition deprecations. Internal structures refactoring.     * Added zoom level (Ctrl Minus, Ctrl Plus), introducing multiple bars per row, automatically tuning to available window width;     * Finally introduced new exception-based framework for converters load/save. Makes converters much more bullet-proof and easier to write and debug.     * Guitar Pro import undergone major rewrite. Now it properly loads all gp4 files I have. Guitar Pro v3 and v5 formats are coming next. Anyway, Guitar Pro loader is now much more helpful about what errors it gets and less crash-prone. It detects and helps debug problems it encounters.     * Lots of displaying, mouse and keyboard control, printing fixes and prettifying. Track pane now has a header and it's synchronized with track list. Melody editor now has trapezoid and shark fin inlays.     * New QMap-based API for song metainformation - stores not a fixed number of fields, but key=value pairs.     * Misc things: project transitioned to Subversion.  As always, comments and especially bug reports are welcome. Also keep in mind that KGuitar is now registered at http://www.ohloh.net/projects/8959?p=KGuitar - so, take a look there too :)

I will turn down free beer software in favor of freedom software when both exist. If you don't know the difference, that's OK. You cannot see the source code for the video drivers from ATI, for example. You can get them for free but they are not freed. The same with Adobe Acrobat Reader and plugins for the Firefox web browser.

Open1X is an open source implementation of the IEEE 802.1X protocol. This project includes support for the authenticator and supplicant, while other projects (e.g., FreeRADIUS) provide support for the authentication server.   XSupplicant version 2.0.1 has been released. This release fixes bugs that have been found since the 2.0.0 release. It does not contain any new features.  In addition to the new release, there has been a lot of work taking place on the next version. First, the project management committe (PMC) decided to rename the codename from SeaMonkey to SeaAnt and to accept a letter ordering for all future codenames. So, along with SeaAnt, the two releases that will follow it are "SeaBadger", and "SeaCow". Second, the roadmap for SeaAnt has been approved by the PMC. Two versions are available. The "executive summary" version can be found here, a longer version with (really) rough timelines can be found here. Third, we have started to work on various pieces of documentation. All of the documentation will be included in future source drops, in addition to the documentation links in the SourceForge project.  Last, but not least, we have also decided to move away from CVS to Subversion. HEAD development (SeaAnt and beyond) is now using subversion. While making this cut over, we also took the opportunity to rearrange the source tree a little. There are now three main modules :      * xsupplicant -- The XSupplicant engine (GPL/BSD licensed)     * xsupplicant-ui -- The XSupplicant UI (GPL licensed)     * xsupplicant-build -- Install packaging and build scripts (GPL/BSD licensed)  The 2.0.x code will continue to come out of the older CVS branches.

Pierre-Alain Joye takes a look at building Cairo (a vector-based graphics library for PHP) on a Windows system.    While trying to get the cairo (and pimp) PHP binding ready to be released, I finally sit down and port Wez build cscript to cairo. It still needs some cleanup, a nice summary message but it works already. I tested it with Visual C++ Express Edition but it should work with other versions as well.   My next goal is to add the tests (nmake tests) and fix the nmake instal    He describes the process he went through to try to get things up and running, but is still having a few issues and has required a few tweaks to get it working. He also links to two resources: a ZIP of the development libraries and a ZIP ready to use package.

With the release of HIT Lab NZ's OSGART (OpenSceneGraph + ARToolKit) framework imminent, I'm pleased to announce a release of the GPL-licensed ARToolKit v2.   Download ARToolKit 2.72 at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=116280  ARToolKit 2.72 contains a number of improvements over previous releases, with several of these focussed on the video capture libraries. Wayne Piekarski and Hartmut Seichter have substantially updated the Linux video input and added Pointgrey and Gstreamer video capture.  Those of you trying to integrate ARToolKit's coordinate system with existing OpenGL drawing will be pleased to see versions of the OpenGL projection and modelview matrix creation functions which now return right-hand coordinate systems.  Integration with OpenSceneGraph is the focus of our current and future work in the area of advanced graphics capabilities atop ARToolKit. However, this release also updates libARvrml so that it binds correctly to the recently updated OpenVRML 0.16.1.  There are a number of smaller improvements, bug fixes and reference documentation updates included. Please download the release and have a look at the readme and changelog.  We have also added more explicit direction on ARToolKit licensing to the Readme. Please be aware that the GPL-licensed ARToolKit cannot be used in a closed-source product. Closed-source licenses to ARToolKit Professional are available from ARToolworks in return for financial support of ARToolKit development efforts.  If you find bugs in this GPL release, please post in ARToolKit's bug tracker on SourceForge at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=116280&atid=674305. This is the preferred forum for bug reports. Patch submissions are also welcomed.  And yes, bugs fixes and other improvements are available between official ARToolKit releases by checking out the source from Sourceforge ARToolKit CVS repository using anonymous CVS. A simple tutorial on how to get the ARToolKit source using a CVS GUI tool is at http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=25731&group_id=116280.  Thanks to all the contributors to this release.  Philip Lamb HIT Lab NZ

Pierre-Alain Joye has made an update to his information about building Cairo on Windows with more fixes and the creation of a dedicated page for the project.   I fixed a possible issue with PDF and PS support, it should work way better now. The cairo_build_windows archive has been updated and a decent freetype2 is now included (from gnuwin32). The build system has been tested with VC++ Express and VC.net 2003. Also a configure.bat is now included, it is a simple "alias" for "cscript /nologo configure.js ". You can call it just like any real configure.   As mentioned, a project homepage has been set up for cairo-win32, and can be found here along with some results of it: PNG file, PDF file.

Christian Stocker has an update on his blog today that Windows users will be happy to hear:   Frank Kromann applied some patches yesterday to the PECL sources of the uploadprogress extension to make it compile under Windows (almost the same as by SteveH provided in a comment of my post yesterday). Therefore, thanks to the pecl4win site, a compiled dll is now already available. Get it here (untested by me..)   He also mentions some documentation that was asked about concerning the package (and the patches), but notes that he "can't promise anything any time soon".

The CImg Library provides a set of C++ classes that can be used in your sources, to load/save, process, display images. Portable (Unix/X11,Windows, MacOS X,..), efficient, simple to use, it's a pleasant toolkit for coding image processing stuffs in C++.   The CImg 1.2.4 package have been released. This is a minor release but with interesting stuffs anyway.  *----------------------------- *----------------------------- * Changes from 1.2.3 to 1.2.4 *----------------------------- *-----------------------------  * New features : - Added macro 'cimg_for_lineXY(x,y,x0,y0,x1,y1)' that loops over an image segment (x0,y0)-(x1,y1). - Added function 'CImg::draw_polygon()' that draws a filled polygon of any shape in the instance image. - Added macros 'cimg_load_plugin', 'cimg_save_plugin', 'cimglist_load_plugin' and 'cimglist_save_plugin' allowing to easily add file support for your own data format. - Added plugin 'plugins/add_fileformat.h' to show how to use these new macros to register a new image format in CImg. - Added version of 'CImg[List]::{load,save}_cimg()' that is able to read/write only sub-images of data stored in a (big) .cimg file. - Added an online chat on the CImg website, so that users can interact freely.  * Optimizations / Modifications : - Added functions 'CImg[List]::save_empty_cimg()' that can be used to work with very large images. You can now create first an empty (big) image, then load/save sub-images into this big .cimg file, without needing much memory. - Slightly modified the header of .cimg files, so little/big endian info is stored. - Reorganized some 'CImg[List]::load_*()' functions, trying to avoid unnecessary memory usage. - Recoded versions of CImg::draw_triangle() that now use the Bresenham's algorithm for interpolation (more precise, while using only integer calculus). - Added versions of 'CImg::draw_triangle()' and 'CImg::draw_line()' that are able to map textures while correctly handling the perspective correction, so that 3D mapped triangles look correct now.  * Bug corrections : - Corrected a small bug in get_coordinates() : channels of hyperspectral images with (dim>3) where subsampled instead of cropped for image visualization. - And many small bug corrections...

Christopher Jones has posted to his Oracle blog today about the release of a new beta for the PECL Oracle (OCI8) drivers for PHP.   I've created a PECL OCI8 1.3.1 Beta bundle of the code with Connection Pooling support that I mentioned in http://blogs.oracle.com/opal/2008/01/31.  You can get it from http://pecl.php.net/package/oci8.  The README contains the details.   Of course, it's still in beta, so any testing and feedback is more than welcome. This bundle also includes several other "non-DRCP related bug fixes" including an issue that caused constant pinging for persistent connections.

Rob Richards mentioned in a previous book review about some of the issues he was having getting the Oracle extension enabled on his Fedora 8 system. Well, he's come back after doing some more testing/compiling and has found some resolution to his issues.   I really didn't need to get it running, but the sheer fact that I tried it and it wouldn't work, pissed me off enough to spend some time getting it resolved. Hopefully this helps anyone else having the same problem. I am currently using instant client 11.1, but I did try the 10.2 version with the same results.   He steps through the process he followed - tracking down the missing libaio files, correcting an issue with SELinux loading the Oracle libraries and his realization: he just needed to allow text relocation. Included in the post are the command line calls that'd need to be made to make it all happen.
