File size: 16853 byte(s)
* added a mainpage for the Doxygen API documentation

1 Version CVS HEAD (?)
2
3 * packaging changes:
4 - added Mac OSX XCode project files (patch by Toshi Nagata)
5 - Dev-C++ (win32) project file is automatically updated with
6 the version info from configure.in
7 - the configure script can now be used in Windows with MSYS
8 - added a mainpage for the Doxygen API documentation
9
10 * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
11 - added Sampler::AddSampleLoop() and Sampler::DeleteSampleLoop() methods
12 - fixed write support for big-endian systems
13 - improved handling of fixed length info strings - separate default
14 lengths can be specified for each INFO chunk
15 - added Resource::GenerateDLSID function
16 - write support fix: allow regions without mapped samples
17 - added method SetKeyRange() to the Region class which should be used
18 instead of setting the KeyRange member variable directly
19 - MoveRegion() method of Region class is now private
20 - added SetGain() method to Sampler class
21
22 * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
23 - fixed segmentation fault in the gig::File destructor sequence which
24 happened when gig::Group informations were accessed before
25 - fixed write support for big-endian systems
26 - defined lengths of a fixed set of info strings. These strings
27 are saved when the file is written, even if they are empty.
28 - added missing parameter initalizations in sample, region and
29 instrument constructors
30 - clear unused fields when saving samples and regions
31 - fixed write support bugs: v3 dimension limits and chunksize
32 weren't saved, leverage controller of type controlchange
33 couldn't be saved, group name list chunk was placed wrong,
34 dimension region chunks also placed wrong
35 - added initialization of some fixed info strings in file and
36 instrument
37 - write support: files created by libgig will now have the RIFF
38 chunks in correct order
39 - write support: two previously unknown fields in dimension
40 definition are now saved
41 - added constants for gig file versions
42 - write support: the 3crc and einf chunks are now created or
43 updated when a file is saved (3crc contains sample checksums,
44 einf contains file statistics)
45 - write support: DLSID is now generated on the file and the
46 instruments
47 - write support: improved the default values for dimension region
48 parameters
49 - more write support fixes: crossfade parameters were not saved,
50 v3 dimension limits were not correctly initialized and saved
51 when dimensions were added or deleted, v3 wave pool offsets were
52 not saved correctly
53 - write support: 24 bit samples can now be written
54 - write support: version 3 is now the default for new files
55 - more write support fixes: the 3ewg chunk is now bigger for v3,
56 dimension regions without mapped samples are now allowed, 3gnl
57 list in v3 files now always has 128 entries, several parameters
58 where incorrectly saved due to an operator precedence mistake
59 - DeleteSample now removes all references to the deleted sample
60 - AddDimension now copies all parameters from existing dimension
61 regions and also makes sure that the samplechannel dimension is
62 placed first in the list of dimensions.
63 - added method GetParent() to class 'DimensionRegion', which returns its
64 parent Region
65 - fixed Instrument::UpdateRegionKeyTable() method which did not reset
66 unused areas
67 - added various setter methods to DimensionRegion class which take care
68 of updating lookup tables / caches.
69
70 * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
71 - added File::SetByteOrder method
72 - Windows fix: saving a new file didn't work
73
74 * src/gigdump.cpp:
75 - added some missing dimension strings
76
77 Version 3.1.1 (24 Mar 2007)
78
79 * packaging changes:
80 - ported to Windows using native Windows functions for file IO
81 (provided Dev-C++ + mingw project file)

83
84 * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
85 - custom velocity splits now works for gig v3 files too
86 - added support for custom splits points for other dimensions than
87 velocity (gig v3 feature)
88 - added "smart midi" and "round robin keyboard" dimensions
89 - added new method File::DeleteGroupOnly() which only deletes the given
90 group but moves all its members to another group, the other method,
91 that is File::DeleteGroup() now removes not just the group, but also
92 all the samples that belong to that group
93 - fixed crash which occured on interfering File::DeleteSample() and
94 File::GetNextSample() calls (due to iterator invalidation)
95 - fixed group names which were not saved
96 - fixed group destructor which did not remove the RIFF chunk associated
97 with the group
98 - added Instrument::MoveRegion method
99 - fixed constructor for Region, which did not initialize correctly
100 when used from Instrument::AddRegion
101 - when saving, override the gig::Regions sample reference simply by
102 the region's first dimension region's sample (avoids an exception
103 when trying to save a new instrument)
104 - fixed AddDimension() method which did not fill out all mandatory
105 dimension definition fields
106
107 * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
108 - added Instrument::MoveRegion method
109 - fixed software info field which was wrongly stored on instruments,
110 causing an exception when trying to save a new instrument
111
112 * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
113 - fixed RIFF::Chunk destructor which did not unregister previously
114 resized chunks, leading to a "zero size chunk" exception when
115 File::Save() was called
116 - added List::MoveSubChunk method
117

240 articulation informations are ignored at the moment
241 (patch by Andreas Persson)
242 - added some file format compatibility checks
243 - fixed vcf_type_lowpassturbo value (vcf_type_lowpassturbo was actually

293
294 * packaging changes:
295 - renamed 'libgig.pc.in' -> 'gig.pc.in' and renamed pkg-config lib name
296 'libgig' -> 'gig' as it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix
297 - fixed man pages automake install rule (which didn't work on Mandrake,
298 SuSE and Fedora)
299 - fixed generation of Doxygen API documentation (now also included in
300 RPM and Debian packages)
301
302 * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
303 - fixed / improved accuracy of all three velocity to volume
304 transformation functions a.k.a. 'nonlinear','linear','special'
305 (patch by Andreas Persson)
306 - denormals are filtered from the velocity to volume tables
307 - bugfix for dimension region switching (wrong handling of the release
308 trigger dimension, no bit range check for dimensions of split type
309 'split_type_bit')

312 - added class attribute 'Layers' to class 'gig::Region'
313 - symbol prototyping of gig::Region (fixes build failure with qsampler)
314

327 Version 0.7.1 (2 Jul 2004)
328
329 * packaging changes:
330 - added libgig.spec and libgig.pc package configurations for generating
331 Redhat packages
332 - header files included on installation.
333 - autotools-generated files removed from CVS repository.
334 - added support for generating Debian packages
335 - version of shared library can be set in configure.in
336
337 Version 0.7.0 (3 May 2004)
338
339 * general changes:
340 - various big endian specific corrections
341 (successfully tested now on PPC)
342 - minor adjustments to avoid compile errors on some systems
343 (using now pow() instead of powl() and --pedantic g++ compiler switch)
344 - libtoolized the library
345 - added man pages for the command line tools
346 (gigextract, gigdump, dlsdump, rifftree)
347
348 * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
349 - fixed bug in decompression algorithm which caused it not to detect
350 the end of a stream
351 - added method GetVelocityAttenuation() to class 'DimensionRegion' which
352 takes the MIDI key velocity value as an argument and returns the
353 appropriate volume factor (0.0 ... 1.0) for the sample to be played
354 back, the velocity curve transformation functions used for this are
355 only an approximation so far
356 - fixed class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart', 'Sample::LoopEnd' and
357 'Sample::LoopSize' which reflected wrong values
358 - class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart' and 'Sample::LoopEnd' are now
359 measured in sample points instead of byte offset
360 - renamed misleading attribute name 'Sample::MIDIPitchFraction' to
361 'Sample::FineTune'
362 - added class attribute 'Sample::LoopSize'
363 - added method GetInstrument(uint index) to class 'File'
364 - added ReadAndLoop() method to class 'Sample' which is an extension to
365 the normal Read() method to honor the sample's looping information
366 while streaming from disk
367 - changed interface for 'attenuation_ctrl_t', 'eg1_ctrl_t' and
368 'eg2_ctrl_t': replaced this huge enumeration by a structure which
369 reflects the MIDI controller number in case of an ordinary control
370 change controller (this saves a huge switch-case block in the
371 application of the library user)
372 - renamed following attributes in class 'DimensionRegion':
373 'AttenuationContol' -> 'AttenuationController',
374 'InvertAttenuationControl' -> 'InvertAttenuationController',
375 'AttenuationControlTreshold' -> 'AttenuationControllerThreshold'
376 - minor fix in API documentation for method GetVelocityAttenuation() in
377 class 'DimensionRegion'
378
379 * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
380 - added additional API documentation
381 - minor fix in Chunk::Read() method (only a minor efficiency issue)
382
383 * src/gigdump.cpp:
384 - added printout of samples' looping informations
385
386 Version 0.6.0 (3 Nov 2003)
387
388 * initial release
