HDF Libraries

This release was built and tested with HDF 4.3.0 and HDF5 1.14.4.

JDK

This release was built and tested with OpenJDK 21. It uses modules, the
newest jpackage for distribution and adds support for float16 datatypes.

Major Enhancements

* GH #117 Add User Option for editing the plugin path and include plugins.
* GH #138 Add Support for operating with float16 datatypes.

Minor Bug Fixes

* GH #159 (Help menu dialogs have gigantic images) Implemented by changing the size from 1024 to 256.
* GH #171 (HDFView fails to find input files on command line when using relative paths)

Limitations / Known Problems

* HDFView currently cannot nicely handle large datasets when using the
  default display mode, as the data is loaded in its entirety. To view
  large datasets, it is recommended to right click on a data object and
  use the "Open As" menu item, where a subset of data to view can be
  selected.

* HDFView also cannot nicely handle large numbers of objects, because of
  a design issue that requires HDFView to visit all the objects in a file.

* Object/region references can't be opened by a double-click or by
  right-clicking and choosing "Show As Table/Image" when inside a compound
  datatype.

* If a file is opened in read-only mode, right-clicking on a dataset in
  in the tree view and choosing any of the options under the
  "Export Dataset" menu item will fail with a message of
  'Unable to export dataset: Unable to open file'. The current workaround
  is to re-open the file in read/write mode.

* The 'Recent Files' button does not work on Mac due to a cross-platform
  issue with SWT.

* Selecting and changing individual points in PaletteView for an image
  palette is broken.

* Logging and optional HDF4 requires rebuilds from source.

* Automatically opening HDFView and displaying a file selected still does
  not display the file on a mac.

Other Notes

There are two types of binaries;

  1. Files with "App" in the name are simple Application Folder images, that can be uncompressed
    into the Install location.
  2. Files without the "App" have system specific installers.
