This allowed us to enable +some new features that required breaking ABI compatibility. Dynamically linked +applications thus need to be rebuilt to use the current Git master or the +upcoming release. +</p> + +<p> +The API remains backward compatible, so no source changes should be required in +the code that works with Libav 10. We note however, that a number of obsolete +APIs remain deprecated and will be removed in the future. All users are strongly +encouraged to update their code. A work in progress migration guide can be found +at <a href="https://wiki.libav.org/Migration/11";>our wiki</a>. If you are still +having difficulty after reading the migration guide, please do not hesitate to +file a report in our Bugzilla. We have a special category for porting issues. +</p> + + <a name="9.16_0.8.15"></a><h3>August 10, 2014</h3> <p> We are happy to update two release branches: Today, we provide you with _______________________________________________ libav-commits mailing list [email protected] https://lists.libav.org/mailman/listinfo/libav-commits
