The bufferAlways method of BufferedIOHandler has been renamed as setBufferProperties. The A3DIO, IMISIO, SMETIO and SNIO plugins now correctly support time zones. The plugin howto documentation now warns the developer to take care of time zones issues.

The DEMObject was not properly buffered (the update flag was not honored), this has been fixed. The A3DIO plugin now implements readStationData. A few speed improvements have been brought to A3DIO and SMETIO by using the "reserve" method of the vectors (so that the vectors don't have to reallocate memory constantly).

The DEMObject subset constructor was broken, it has been fixed. It involved creating a subset method in the arrays classes.

The Coord class now supports using the given UTM zone when converting from lat/long to UTM. If the computed zone does not match the one requested in the io.ini, it prints a warning but uses the user-supplied zone.

A first implementation of readStationData for SMETIO has been done. 

Some documentation has been added for plugin development

Bugfix: The buffer was filled with all data before the date requested, it should only fill the buffer with data between dateStart and dateEnd

The WIND_CURV spatial interpolations algorithm now intelligently checks if the curvatures are available or not and gives a warning if not (and also take a 0 grade so that it would not be used).

The SMET plugin now uses the user provided coordinate system (as a default value for input and as a target coordinate system for output).

Another bug in the parameter name mapping in SMETIO has been found and some error messages made clearer (with more information).

A bug in convertString<Date> has been found that was preventing it from corretly processing dates containing seconds. A quick fix has been implemented that reads seconds (even if they are later ignored because the Date class would need to support seconds)

Several bugs have been fixed in Coords: the setEPSG was not working, the altitude was not displayed with the << operator and the formatting of decimal_to_dms was broken in its handling of seconds...

The documentation for the resampling has been expanded and several other modules' documentation have been updated so their structure is built along the same lines. 

An error message in IOHandler (when failing to load a plugin) was not clear and has been changed.

Several bugs in SMEIO have been fixed (improper column names mapping, improper handling of easting/northing, unclear error message).

The example data set has been tagged as GMT+1 and the meteo_reading and 2D_interpolations modified accordingly (so the argument read on the command line is assumed to be in GMT+1 too)

BUGFIX: A boolean signature check had a boolean evaluation for the version string check that was not performing as intended.

BUGFIX: A boolean signature check had a boolean evaluation for the version string check that was not performing as intended.

BUGFIX: When adding a key on the fly to the ConfigReader object it disappeared when accessing it in a plugin. Reason: The dynamic instantiation used the filename parameter in the constructor of the plugins instead of the ConfigReader object itself. Architectural change inside DynamicLibrary was necessary.

The EPSG get and set methods have been added to Coords. The "<<" operator has been redefined for ConfigReader (this is convenient for debugging). The SMETIO plugin has been updated (so that it supports EPSG codes and also to change some column names and improve the foutput formatting). Some documentation has been added and the example data set has been replaced by a data set suitable for the whole Switzerland and in SMET format.

The missing License file has been added. A little bit of cleanup in CMakeLists (removing some code that is anyway not helping for hera).

ImisIO and SmetIO have been slightly improved (retrieving full names if available in Imis, supporting several versions of the smet specification in SmetIO).

The SMET specification should now be pretty much ready. Please provide your last comments before version 1.0!!

The WSMDF format has been renamed into SMET. Therefore, the plugin has been renamed in SMETIO. Compilation and documentation have been updated accordingly.

The WSMDF plugin now sports a nicer formatting of columns in ASCII mode. TODO: unit_multiplier, unit_offset and GZIP

Fixed the behavior of ConfigReader when throwing exceptions: it rethrows so that the error message can be turned off by the receiver of the exception (if simply not printing e.what() when catching the exception). 

The warnings in FilterAlgorithms have been turned off cast to void) since this is an algorithm that has to be re-written anyway. The documentation has been fixed (missing documentation, broken link, etc)

The WSMDF  binary data format now saves the julian date as a double (64bit) all other parameters are stored as floats (32-bit) and a dataset is terminated by a char '\n'.

Binary version of WSMDF working.
TODO: change timestamp to julian and GZIP features

Added new plugin for WSMDF format. gzipped version of format currently not supported. binary version works, but since the julian date does not fit into a 4 byte (32bit) float, it is unusable. ASCII format works, although unit_multiplier and unit_offset are currently not supported. For location information the easting, northing version is not yet supported.

Added function IOUtils::stripComments(string&) it, deletes everything after # or ; from the string&
