to test ctsaving refactoring

• Can compile over processlib v1.7.5 (roicollection)
• fix libconfig find for both windows and linux and using conda-forge new package
• pin processlib to 1.7* version 1.8* is sip incompatible and will be used from lima-core 1.10
• ctsaving refactoring which manages now frames per file and last file with less frames when total number of frames is not a modulo of the nb_frame_per_file

To test ctsaving refactoring which manages now frames per file and last file with less frames when total number of frames is not a modulo of the nb_frame_per_file

New features

• Conda: stop support for python 2.7 and 3.6

  • shared_memory_ attributes silently ignored in read or write if the Display module is not available
  • Unused code clean up and python2 backward compatibility restored
  • acc_saturated_cblevel attribute ignores read/write if no module is loaded
  • Tango event of last-image-changed fixed to not lost last events before the acquisition finishes

• New features

  • RoiCounter and RoiSpectrum mask now support SILX 0.14 file format
  • BackgroundSubtraction: takeNextAcquisitionAsBackground() command cam be called during an acquisition

v1.9.8

• New features for RoiCounters
  • makes BufferSize and MaskFile always accessible
  • added MaskFile Property and Attribute on RoiCounter
    • raise ValueError in case mask file cannot be read

Before the release, to test merged of rc1 and rc2

New features

• lima_conda_build script: local Conda compilation with optimization for native architecture

Bug fixes

• #135: Fix unprotected member access in CtSaving::_getTaskList
• #131: InvalidValue exception, roi-out-of-limits when applying rotation with an image_roi already defined fix computation of the max_roi according to the current binning and rotation Add equality operators for Size and their missing python bindings for Point, Size and FrameDim Add test for ROI computation for every bin / flip / rot
• #130: continuous acquisition and hdf5 saving broken fix deadlock resulting in saving task stall and consequently AcqStatus being AcqRunning indefinitely fix _calcAcqStatus when acq_nb_frames == 0
• #120: stopAcq() destroying non empty allocator Do not destroy default Allocator until it's empty

Camera updates

• Maxipix 1.9.1: fixed latency_time calculation when in hardware trigger mode

• Pilatus 1.9.1:

  • Bug Fix: IntTrigMult trigger mode, mode to software trig each image exposing, has been repaired, and can be use now to have faster software acquisition sequence
  • New Features: Tango: new properties to run the server on a slave computer, not only on the DCU computer:
    • tmpfs_path. default = /lima_data
    • host_name, default = localhost
    • host_port, default = 41234
    • config_path, default = /home/det/p2_det/config/cam_data/camera.def

• Simulator 1.9.2:

  • Fix EDF Parser (allow smaller header block of 512Kib)
  • Fix Prefetch mode (segfault and/or black images with some use cases)

New cameras

• Arinax: The OAV B-ZOOM is an On-Axis Video-microscope with a hybrid zoom system used for parallax free observation of micrometer sized crystals. It is optimized for MX crystallography beamlines and high throughput stations in Synchrotrons.
• QHYccd: high-performance scientific grade CMOS and CCD cameras

New features

• HDF5 container:
  • new attributes "file_name" and "file_time" to keep track of the original file path and creation date.
  • adjust the image dataset size to the number of acquired frames
  • in manual saving, keep a contiguous frame dataset
  • avoid Tango dead-lock timeout due to lengthy memory allocations

Bug fixes

• fix cmake find_package_handle_standard_args warning

• fix conversion compiler warning when calling import_array macro.

• HDF5 container:
