Hi All, I have 2 problems you all hopefully have suggestions for... (thanks in advance)
Problem 1: I'm interested in opening ND2 file format programmatically in Java via a SCIFIO object used with an ImageJ context but can't seem to get it to work. (see listing A) Error message indicates format not found. Hopefully relevant details of what I am currently doing with maven imports are below. (see listing B) Suggestions? Is there a BioFormats dependency I am not bringing in that is necessary to expose/discover all the additional proprietary formats or do I have to add the proprietary formats myself using a combination of a bioformats artifact I'm not aware of and adding each format using the mechanism provided by scifio-bf-compat? I thought it used to be automatic upon adding the scifio and scifio-bf-compat dependencies. Any help is appreciated. I looked in scifio tutorials but couldn't figure it out. Sorry. Problem 2: After resolution of problem 1, I'd like to leverage recent changes to the bioformats package that addresses a bug in ND2 metadata handling that was affecting me (https://trac.openmicroscopy.org.uk/ome/ticket/12548 <https://trac.openmicroscopy.org.uk/ome/ticket/12548>). The link suggests using bioformats 5.1.x vs 5.0.x which also requires use a few other updated jars (as noted near end of ticket). Suggestions on the best way to do this given my use case? It looks like the parent pom of scifio-bf-compat (pom-scijava) specifies <bio-formats.version>5.0.7</bio-formats.version>. Is it likely to be "risky" to leverage the most recent changes for ND2 compatibility? Thanks, Jay %%%%%%%%%%%%% Listing A %%%%%%%%%%%%% final SCIFIO scifio = new SCIFIO(ij.getContext()); Reader reader; try { reader = scifio.initializer().initializeReader(nd2File, new SCIFIOConfig().checkerSetOpen(true)); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); return false; } %%%%%%%%%%%%% Listing B %%%%%%%%%%%%% My project parent pom is <parent> <groupId>net.imagej</groupId> <artifactId>pom-imagej</artifactId> <version>5.12.0</version> </parent> I have the following maven dependencies <dependency> <groupId>io.scif</groupId> <artifactId>scifio</artifactId> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>io.scif</groupId> <artifactId>scifio-bf-compat</artifactId> <scope>runtime</scope> </dependency> A "limited" list of 30 formats show up in the DefaultFormatService currently and don't include ND2.
