RMagick4J 0.3.7 Happy Birthmonth has been released!

RMagick is a Ruby binding to ImageMagick and GraphicsMagick. RMagick4J implements ImageMagick functionality and the C portions of RMagick for use with JRuby.

Current stable version: 0.3.7
Project URL: http://kenai.com/projects/rmagick4j
Installation: gem install rmagick4j

New effects:

• Charcoal
• Edge
• Implode
• Negate
• Normalize
• Shade
• Solarize
• Wave

(I think that’s all that you need to use simple_captcha)

Major bugs resolved:

• blur_image produced different images from RMagick.
• Draw#push and Draw#pop didn’t work correctly in some cases.

Furthermore, RMagick4J does not depend on jhlabs library anymore (the gem has lost some weight!).

Thanks to:

• Tim Hunter and the ImageMagick team (obviously).
• JRuby community for its support.
• Everyone that has reported a bug, ask for help in the #jruby channel or suggest a new library compatibility.

Please try out your applications with rmagick4j and help us provide feedback (even birthmonth cake!). It is our goal to make a fully-compatible implementation of RMagick4j in JRuby.

This is a very special release, cause March is my birthmonth.

Happy Birthmonth to:

• SuperTaz
• everyone else whose birthmonth is march
• and me!
