Package: libopenexr-dev (1.2.2-4.3+etch2) [security]

development files for the OpenEXR image library

OpenEXR is a high dynamic-range (HDR) image file format developed by Industrial Light & Magic for use in computer imaging applications.

OpenEXR's features include:

   * Higher dynamic range and colour precision than existing 8- and
     10-bit image file formats.
   * Support for the "half" 16-bit floating-point pixel format.
   * 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.

This package contains the header files required if you wish to compile/develop applications that use libopenexr0; as well as

   * Half - a C++ class for manipulating half values as if they were
     a built-in C++ data type.
