htslib-1.10 (and 1.11) compatibility
We have been compatible in the develop
branch for a long time, but this finally comes to master
for building client programs.
Besides adding tons of new APIs and functions in htslib-1.10 (and 1.11, with which this is binary compabile, see below) There are some major breaking changes to be aware of:
- 64 bit coordinates (previously were 32 bit in 1.9 and earlier)
- go make all your
int
coordinateslong
- go make all your
- Revamped namespace to place all convenience wrappers and idiomatic D and functions not included in htslib (like cigar and MD processing) under
dhtslib.*
, while direct C bindings moved underhtslib.*
(previouslydhtslib.htslib.*
)
This should build against htslib-1.10 or htslib-1.11, but the C bindings are only up to date with htslib-1.10 at the moment. This only means a handful of newest functions are not yet included. You can easily tell whether you have htslib-1.9 (or earlier) versus 1.10+ installed by looking at your shared libraries: if you have htslib.so.3
, you are up to date. If htslib.so.2
, that reflects htslib-1.9 or earlier and is incompatible with this release.
