The current (v250) svn code is a 2.04 release candidate. If you are able to download from svn, and have reported an issue on the list below, then please take a look and give it a try. This version will be uploaded to the download page soon unless I hear of any further problems. NOTE that VC++ express 2005 is deprecated and no longer supported. Get vc++ express 2008 instead.
After 2.04, there will be no going back: This is that *last* version to build with VC++6! V3.00 has some new template code that VC++6 just can't cope with. V3.00 will have big changes to TessBaseAPI, moving towards (but not complete) thread safety. V3.00 will have page layout analysis that will not work well without leptonica. As a consequence, 3.00 by default will require leptonica to build on windows. It may be possible to disable it, but the resulting code will have reduced functionality. Completion of 2.04 will open the door to an upload of a preliminary version of 3.00 to svn... Here are the 2.04 release notes: Tesseract release notes June 2 2009 - V2.04 Integrated patches for portability and to remove some of the "access" macros. Removed dependence on lua from the viewer making it a *lot* faster. Also the viewer now compiles and works (on Linux.) Also works on windows via a pre-built ScrollView.jar. Fixed the following issues: 1, 63, 67, 71, 76, 79, 81, 82, 84, 106, 108, 111, 112, 128, 129, 130, 133, 135, 142, 143, 145, 146, 147, 153, 154, 160, 165, 169, 170, 175, 177, 187, 192, 195, 199, 201, 205, 209. This is the last version to support VC++6! This may also be the last version to compile without leptonica! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "tesseract-ocr" group.
