Overview
The image display from BEAM 4.5 on is based on image pyramids and tiled images provided a JAI. The core APIs and implementations for the new imaging is provided by a new module ceres-glayer. Special implementations and bindings for BEAM are implemented in the BEAM module beam-core.
Module ceres-glayer
The ceres-glayer module comprises the three top-level packages
- com.bc.ceres.glayer - Multi-layer graphics
- com.bc.ceres.glevel - Image pyramids
- com.bc.ceres.grender - Rendering of graphical items
accompanied with a set of support packages providing generally useful interface implementations.
