33  *
34  * This document describes the usage of the different libraries
35  * provided by Libav.
36  *
37  * @li @ref libavc "libavcodec" encoding/decoding library
38  * @li @ref lavfi "libavfilter" graph-based frame editing library
39  * @li @ref libavf "libavformat" I/O and muxing/demuxing library
40  * @li @ref lavd "libavdevice" special devices muxing/demuxing library
41  * @li @ref lavu "libavutil" common utility library
42  * @li @ref lavr "libavresample" audio resampling, format conversion and mixing
43  * @li @ref libsws "libswscale"  color conversion and scaling library
44  *
45  * @section libav_versioning Versioning and compatibility
46  *
47  * Each of the Libav libraries contains a version.h header, which defines a
48  * major, minor and micro version number with the
49  * <em>LIBRARYNAME_VERSION_{MAJOR,MINOR,MICRO}</em> macros. The major version
50  * number is incremented with backward incompatible changes - e.g. removing
51  * parts of the public API, reordering public struct members, etc. The minor
52  * version number is incremented for backward compatible API changes or major
53  * new features - e.g. adding a new public function or a new decoder. The micro
54  * version number is incremented for smaller changes that a calling program
55  * might still want to check for - e.g. changing behavior in a previously
56  * unspecified situation.
57  *
58  * Libav guarantees backward API and ABI compatibility for each library as long
59  * as its major version number is unchanged. This means that no public symbols
60  * will be removed or renamed. Types and names of the public struct members and
61  * values of public macros and enums will remain the same (unless they were
62  * explicitly declared as not part of the public API). Documented behavior will
63  * not change.
64  *
65  * In other words, any correct program that works with a given Libav snapshot
66  * should work just as well without any changes with any later snapshot with the
67  * same major versions. This applies to both rebuilding the program against new
68  * Libav versions or to replacing the dynamic Libav libraries that a program
69  * links against.
70  *
71  * However, new public symbols may be added and new members may be appended to
72  * public structs whose size is not part of public ABI (most public structs in
73  * Libav). New macros and enum values may be added. Behavior in undocumented
74  * situations may change slightly (and be documented). All those are accompanied
75  * by an entry in doc/APIchanges and incrementing either the minor or micro
76  * version number.
