[Geoserver-users] Installing native JAI on GeoServer 2.2.4

In the release notes of GeoServer 2.2.4 I read

Imageio-ext was upgraded to version 1.1.6

Does this mean we don’t need to do these steps anymore:
http://docs.geoserver.org/2.1.x/en/user/production/java.html#install-native-jai-and-jai-image-i-o-extensions

Thanks,

Paul

Nope, it’s unrelated. JAI and JAI imageio are the base libraries, Imageio-EXT builds on top of JAI ImageIO
and provides support for reading more formats, as well BigTIFF support, by binding to more native
libraries (e…g, Kakadu for JPEG200, MrSid, ECW, and so on).

I think that just means the imageIO version that GeoServer comes with is now 1.1.6.

The native libraries are faster than the ones that GeoServer ships with because they’re native. Doubt they’ve started including the native libraries so that step would still be needed for speed optimisation. Might be wrong though.
