There is a separate project that provides a web-based tile viewer using Javascript (implemented in Python as a
WSGI application).
+ The .cache files are not portable across different architectures.
+
+
COMPILING:
The library depends on libpng and pthreads. The code was developed and tested using:
* libpng 1.2.15~beta5-3ubuntu0.1
* NPTL 2.7 (glibc 2.7-10ubuntu5)
+ The code was verified to compile and run on cc.hut.fi's Ubuntu computers, e.g. asterix.hut.fi.
+
To compile, simply execute
make
The libpngtile.so will be placed under lib/, and the 'util' binary under bin/.
+
USAGE:
Store the .png data files in a directory. You must have write access to the directory when updating the caches,
which are written as a .cache file alongside the .png file.
