The following describes the most significant changes which
occurred in the AST library between versions V8.0.0 and V8.0.1:
- The BaseBase and CurrentCurrent attributes of a FrameSetFrameSet may now be set using the
DomainDomain name or the index of the required FrameFrame.
- The order of WCS axes within new FITS-WCS headers created by astWriteastWrite
can now be controlled using a new attribute called FitsAxisOrderFitsAxisOrder.
- Supported added for FITS XPH (polar HEALPIX) projection.
- The macro used to invoke the astAppendStringastAppendString utility function has
changed to allow printf-style converstions to be included in the
supplied text. Any code that uses this macro must be re-compiled.
- The astRebin and astRebinSeq family of functions now include support
for arrays with char (byte) and unsigned char (unsigned byte) data types.
