Minimap2-2.1.1 (r341)
This is a maintenance release that is expected to output identical alignment to
v2.1. Detailed changes include:
-
Support CPU dispatch. By default, minimap2 is compiled with both SSE2 and
SSE4 based implementation of alignment and automatically chooses the right
one at runtime. This avoids unexpected errors on older CPUs (#21). -
Improved Windows support as is requested by Oxford Nanopore (#19). Minimap2
now avoids variable-length stacked arrays, eliminates alloca(), ships with
getopt_long() and provides timing functions implemented with Windows APIs. -
Fixed a potential segmentation fault when specifying -k/-w/-H with
multi-part index (#23). -
Fixed two memory leaks in example.c
