In the middle of May, 2009 I reorganized the mlt and mlt++ source code
trees and renamed a bunch of things. This document describes those
changes. Obviously, the impact of this change is great, and it is
important for you to understand.
- mlt++ was moved into the main mlt project into src/mlt++
- git clone git://mltframework.org/mlt.git or
http://mltframework.org/mlt.git
- mlt++ is built by default - no extra step
- there is a new mlt++.pc file installed for use with pkg-config
- this does not include the !MltMiracle or !MltResponse classes!
- The swig bindings were moved into the main mlt project
into src/swig.
- they are not built by default
- the namespace for scripts was changed from “mltpp” to just
“mlt” (e.g. python) or “Mlt” (.e.g. ruby)
- the Java namespace was changed from net.sourceforge.mlt to
org.mltframework
- Several things in the MLT framework were renamed.
- inigo was renamed “melt”
- fezzik was renamed “loader” and moved into the core module
- the fezzik.dict and fezzik.ini files in $prefix/share/mlt
were moved into a subdirectory of there named “core”
- numerous calls to mlt_factory_producer() that directly
referenced “fezzik” were changed to NULL, which causes the
factory to use the MLT_PRODUCER environment variable or
“loader” if unset
- westley was renamed “xml”
- this was changed in the services as well as the module name
- the service “westley-xml” was renamed “xml-string”
- the root element was changed from “westley” to “mlt”
- some references in documentation and comments were changed
from “westley” to “MLT XML”
- the standard filename extension for XML files was changed
from “.westley” to “.mlt”
- it is backwards compatible with .westley files containing a
westley root element
- miracle, valerie, albino, and humperdink were moved out of the mlt
project into their own new project named “melted”
- git clone git://mltframework.org/melted.git or
http://mltframework.org/melted.git
- miracle was renamed “melted”
- the MVCP protocol is now named “MVCP” which stands for Multiport
Video Control Protocol
- valerie was renamed libmvcp
- libmiracle was renamed libmelted
- humperdink was renamed mvcp-client
- albino was renamed mvcp-console
- this project will host the MltMelted (formerly MltMiracle) and
MltResponse C++ classes
- this project will host the mvcp MLT module (formerly known
as valerie)
- miscellaneous
- mlt-config is no longer installed (but it is still available in
the source tree)
