VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: This release of the JasPer software introduced some changes in the API and/or behavior of the library relative to earlier releases, which may necessitate some small changes in code using the library (e.g., to avoid memory leaks or other problems). Please refer to the "News" section of the JasPer Reference Manual for more details. For convenience, this manual is available online (for various JasPer releases) at:

​https://jasper-software.github.io/jasper-manual

• Greatly improve documentation.
• Add support for multithreading.
• Add some customization points in the library, such as the memory allocator and error logging function.
• Add improved memory usage tracking and limiting.
• Add experimental partial encoding/decoding support for the HEIC format.
• Fix some longstanding issues in the JasPer I/O streams API.
• Add the running of the full test suite in CI builds for the Windows platform. (Previously, the full test suite was only run for CI builds on Unix-based platforms.)
• Fix many bugs (e.g., #305, #307, #308, #309, #312, #314, and many others not associated with any issue numbers).

• Merged support for JasPer 3.0.0 into the XV software at:

For a major version, I tested several packages that use jasper: opencv, gegl, libraw, and imagemagick. There were no complaints.

Did not test qt5 or kf5 (KImageFormats).
