What is cpl

The Common Pipeline Library (CPL) comprises a set of ISO-C libraries that provide a comprehensive, efficient and robust software toolkit. It forms a basis for the creation of automated astronomical data-reduction tasks (known as “pipelines”) for ESO (European Southern Observatory) instruments. The CPL was developed to standardize the way VLT (Very Large Telescope) instrument pipelines are built, to shorten their development cycle and to ease their maintenance. cpl 7.1.3 1.fc34 x86_64 654 k cpl-7.1.3-1.fc34.src.rpm fedora ESO library for automated astronomical data-reduction tasks http GPLv2+ The Common Pipeline Library (CPL) comprises a set of ISO-C libraries that provide a comprehensive, efficient and robust software toolkit.
