Hello Matt,
1.
This is indeed separated
in ImageJ2.
2.
I had some painful
experiences with that but I have a running Linux SWT_AWT
implementation with the help of some changed Albireo sources
(I started to investigate ImageJ2). However the image data
visualization from ImageJ1 don’t has to be a Swing panel it
can be converted to a SWT image. To convert the whole ImageJ
interface to SWT is possible but in SWT_AWT easier to
maintain. I selected a hybrid with SWT tabs.
3.
In addition I tried the
way: Swing->embedded in JavaFX->embedded in SWT which
also worked as an easy SWT_AWT alternative. However I think
this could be a little bit less effective than the SWT_AWT
bridge though I didn’t tested it much.
Best
regards
Marcel
Hello
Marcel,
Couple
of problems we have had with ImageJ were:
1.
Hard coded links between data and visualization which I
think were solved in ImageJ2 but we have not tried it yet
2.
The viewer is swing and using the AWT-SWT bridge on linux
can be risky
Sincerely,
Matt
Hello,
I already wrote this to Jay to bring in my
image library experience.
As an image lib I would highly recommend ImageJ
(public domain) and (or) it extension ImageJ2:
http://imagej.nih.gov/ij/
which is the fastest Java imaging library
around.
ImageJ2 (BSD):
https://github.com/imagej/imagej/
is a redesign of ImageJ with a more flexible
data model using ImgLib2:
http://imglib2.net/
"ImageJ2 is a new version of
ImageJ seeking to strengthen both the software and
its community. Internally, it is a total redesign of ImageJ,
but it is backwards compatible with ImageJ 1.x via a "legacy
layer" and features a user interface closely modeled after
the original.......ImageJ2 completely isolates the image
processing logic from the graphical user interface (UI),
allowing ImageJ2 commands to be used in many contexts...."
Please note that ImageJ1 is still actively
developed by it’s developer Wayne Rasband , too, and is a
fantastic imaging library easy to use (with many examples
only).
Using this lib with the Bio-Formats package you
can open all kind of image formats:
http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/products/bio-formats
Note that these libs are coming from microscopy
imaging but are used in very different domains!
If you would like to open geospatial or GIS
formats then I think you should use the GeoTools libs:
http://www.geotools.org/.
There is also a Java JNI lib available for the
GDAL library which is the Swiss Army tool for geospatial
raster or vector formats (integrated in almost all GIS
tools):
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/GdalOgrInJava
Anothermulti pupose image library actively!
developed is the Apache Commons Imaging lib:
https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-imaging/
Some other links to free or proprietary libs
can be found on the ImageJ website:
http://imagej.nih.gov/ij/links.html
However checkout the ImageJ libs. You will be
surprised what you can do with it:
http://imagej.nih.gov/ij/docs/guide/146.html
Best regards
Marcel
