# Star-VoXel
-Star-VX is a C library designed to manage volume elements, called voxels,
-structured as a set of axis-aligned cuboids. This library knows nothing about
-the volume data it manages: it only provides data structures that partition
-the voxels according to the user's criteria. It also implements efficient
-operators for indexing voxels in space partitioning data structures or for
-accessing them by ray tracing.
-
-Star-VX offers 2 hierarchical data structures: the *octree* and the *binary
-tree*. The former is used to structure regular 3D data, while the latter is
-used for 1D data. Star-VX builds the required data structure following a
-bottom-up strategy: the user submits the data set to be partitioned, as well as
-the policy used to define when voxels can be merged, and the merge operator
-itself. The way in which data is accessed by *indexing* or *ray tracing* can
-also be finely tuned by the user: in addition to the position of the probe or
-the radius to be traced, he can provide callbacks to stop traversal at a
-hierarchical level that is not a leaf, perform calculations at the traversed
-leaf level, reject leaves, and so on. The host application thus has total

## Release notes
+### Version 0.3
+
+- Replace CMake by Makefile as build system.
+- Update compiler and linker flags to increase the security and
+ robustness of generated binaries.
+- Provide a pkg-config file to link the library as an external
+ dependency.
+- Fix compilation warnings
+
### Version 0.2.1
-Sets the CMake minimum version to 3.1: since CMake 3.20, version 2.8 has become
-obsolete.

### Version 0.2
- Update the profile of the functors invoked on node traversal: the ray
origin, direction and range are now provided as input arguments.
-- Force the invocation of the challenge and filter functors on the root node.
- Previously these functors were not called on the root;the challenging and
- filtering was starting on its children.
