@FrancescAlted FrancescAlted released this 23 Dec 13:21

Changes from 1.9.2 to 1.10.0

  • Updated vendored C-Blosc to 1.21.0.

  • Wheels for Intel (32 and 64 bits) and all major OS (Win, Linux, Mac) are here.
    The wheels have support for runtime detection for AVX2, so it will be
    automatically leveraged in case the local host has AVX2. No need anymore to
    worry about using different binaries for CPUs not having AVX2 hardware.

    Also, we are distributing binaries for C-Blosc libraries (dynamic and static)
    and headers. This way, people trying to use the C-Blosc library can use the
    python-blosc wheels to install the necessary development files. For details,
    see: https://github.com/Blosc/c-blosc/blob/master/COMPILING_WITH_WHEELS.rst

    We gratefully acknowledge Jeff Hammerbacher for supporting the addition of
    wheels for Blosc.

  • Officially drop support for Python < 3.7. Although we did not any explicit
    action that is incompatible with older Python versions, we only provide
    wheels for Python >= 3.7 (til 3.9).
