JDirector 2.2.1_imca36 has been released. This update adds support for saving ancillary files with data in auto-mode and other improvements.
- In auto-mode, instead of saving camera snapshots from the centering and before and after steps directly in the sample directory, they are now saved in a "camera" subdirectory. This makes the sample directory less cluttered and more uniform.
- Added support for saving ancillary files ("camera", "diff-center", etc.) with the data in auto-mode. This behavior is off by default but can be enabled via an option in the Job Control options pane. This is useful for mail-in when collecting for more than one user and want the ancillary files to be saved with the data. In this mode of operation, the recipe usually contains a path not relative to the sample image directory (i.e. user-defined absolute path or relative to the working directory) and using escape characters. This can also be used if a user wants to collect their data to a different location than the default one produced by auto-mode.
- In auto-mode, for the ancillary "camera" and "diff-center" subdirectories, if they already exist, they will now be renamed out of the way first. They are renamed to a name ending in ".old" or ".oldN" where N is an integer >= 2. This makes the latest camera and diffraction center images always appear in the "camera" and "diff-center" subdirectories. The previous behavior for "camera" was to just overwrite the images. (The "camera" subdirectory did not exist previously; it is new in this release.) The previous behavior for "diff-center" was to create a new "diff-centerN" directory where N was an integer >= 2 if "diff-center" already existed. With that approach, the path to the latest diffraction center images was not stable.
- Disabled mediaLib in order to prevent the message "Could not load mediaLib accelerator wrapper classes. Continuing in pure Java mode." from being written to the standard error stream the first time one did something involving reading an X-ray diffraction image (e.g. loading an image into the Image Viewer view).
