Changes to application logic

This section lists all changes introduced in Aspose.OCR for C++ 24.9.0 that may affect the behavior of existing applications.

Automatic resource loading

Compatibility: fully backward compatible.

The automatic loading of advanced OCR modules from the external repository is now turned on by default.
External OCR modules are downloaded to the application working directory unless directly redefined in AsposeOCRResourceLoadSettings.resource_root_path setting.

Default behavior starting with version 24.9.0:

AsposeOCRResourceLoadSettings load_settings;
/*** optional - application's working directory is used by default
std::string root_path = "<application's working directory>";
load_settings.resources_root_path = root_path.c_str();
***/
load_settings.lazy_load = true;
asposeocr_set_resource_load_settings(load_settings);

Additional system requirements for Linux version

Aspose.OCR for C++ library for Linux now requires LAPACK (Linear Algebra Package) to function properly.

Use sudo apt-get install liblapack-dev to download and install the latest version of LAPACK.
