I'm sponsoring this case for Henry Jiang. The release binding is Minor,
and the interfaces are Uncommitted.
There is a man page for the library in the materials directory. It shows
(but should probably do so more clearly) that the library is compiled with
g++, not Studio, and so apps linking against it will need to do the same.

Summary
=======
OpenEXR[1] is a high dynamic-range (HDR) image file format developed by
Industrial Light & Magic for use in computer imaging applications, is used
by ILM on all motion pictures currently in production.
OpenEXR's features include:
* Higher dynamic range and color precision than existing 8- and
10-bit image file formats.
* Support for 16-bit floating-point, 32-bit floating-point, and 32-bit
integer pixels. The 16-bit floating-point format, called "half",
is compatible with the half data type in NVIDIA's Cg graphics
language and is supported natively on their new GeForce FX and
Quadro FX 3D graphics solutions.
* Multiple lossless image compression algorithms. Some of the included
codecs can achieve 2:1 lossless compression ratios on images with
film grain.
* Extensibility. New compression codecs and image types can easily be
added by extending the C++ classes included in the OpenEXR software
distribution. New image attributes (strings, vectors, integers, etc.)
can be added to OpenEXR image headers without affecting backward
compatibility with existing OpenEXR applications.
In this project, the following libraries will be integrated into
Solaris:
1) *IlmImf, a library that reads and writes OpenEXR images.
2) *Half, a C++ class for manipulating half values as if
they were a built-in C++ data type.
3) *Imath, a math library with support for matrices, 2d- and
3d-transformations, solvers for linear/quadratic/cubic
equations, and more.
4) *IlmThread, a thread abstraction library for use with
OpenEXR and other software packages.
5) *Iex, an exception-handling library.
openexr-1.6.1 and ilmbase-1.0.1 will be integrated into the SFW consolidation
as part of this proposal, and will be installed as SUNWopenexr.
This project requests a minor release binding.
