0.9.0  2020-12-17  A Winter'20 release.

0.6.2  2019-03-24  A Spring'20 release.

                   Fixed compile errors on macOS.

                   Expose actual system error codes via client interface
                   instead of just -1 whenever a syscall failed.

                   Added new client interface function:
                     lscp_client_connection_lost();
                   for checking whether client lost connection to server.

                   Fixed potential missing NULL termination of locale strings.

0.5.8  2016-11-14  A Fall'16 release.

0.5.7  2013-12-31  Use getaddrinfo() instead of deprecated gethostbyname().

                   Update on newer autoconf macros (m4).

                   Fixes for building for Windows with configure and make.

                   Makefile fixes for building in separate directory.

                   Autoconf fix: AC_CONFIG_HEADER obsolete error (fixes #194).

0.5.6  2009-08-01  Fixed locale related parser bug (fixes #59).

                   Added new client interface functions, for managing
                   the global limit of maximum voices and disk streams:
                   lscp_get_voices(), lscp_set_voices(), lscp_get_streams(),
                   lscp_set_streams().

                   _lscp_device_port_info_query(): take port parameter
                   "NAME" into the result list.

                   Bugfix: _lscp_client_evt_proc() dropped LSCP events.

                   Bugfix in lscp_client_subscribe(): only the first
                   lscp_client_subscribe() call succeeded (per client),
                   all subsequent ones failed.

                   Added support for new (un)subscribable events:
                     LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_MIDI
                     LSCP_EVENT_DEVICE_MIDI
                   Caution: the bitflag approach for the event variable
                   is now abondoned, since otherwise we would soon hit the
                   limit of the bit range. The bitflag approach will
                   remain for events older at this point (that is all
                   events which occupy the lower 16 bits), but this new
                   and all following events will simply be enumared along
                   the upper 16 bits.

                   Added new client interface function, for renaming
                   effect send entities:
                     lscp_set_fxsend_name();

                   Added new client interface functions, for managing the
                   global limit of maximum voices and disk streams:
                     lscp_get_voices();
                     lscp_set_voices();
                     lscp_get_streams();
                     lscp_set_streams();

                   Bugfix: fixed buggy behavior on different locale
                   settings (e.g. when parsing floating point numbers).

0.5.5  2007-10-12  Changed client interface function, for editing
                   instrument, from:
                     lscp_edit_instrument();
                   to:
                     lscp_edit_channel_instrument();

0.5.4  2007-10-02  Added new client interface function, for editing
                   instrument:
                     lscp_edit_instrument();

                   Fixed some minor bugs in:
                     lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
                     lscp_set_fxsend_level();

0.5.3  2007-01-15  Added new client interface functions, for sampler
                   channel effect sends control:
                     lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
                     lscp_set_fxsend_level();

                   Added new field member to lscp_fxsend_info_t (level).

0.5.2  2007-01-11  Added new client interface functions, for sampler
                   channel effect sends control:
                     lscp_create_fxsend();
                     lscp_destroy_fxsend();
                     lscp_get_fxsends();
                     lscp_list_fxsends();
                     lscp_get_fxsend_info();
                     lscp_set_fxsend_audio_channel();
                   and for global volume:
                     lscp_get_volume();
                     lscp_set_volume();

                   Audio routing representation changed to integer array.

0.5.1  2006-12-22  Added support for new (un)subscribable events:
                     LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_COUNT,
                     LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_INFO,
                     LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE_COUNT,
                     LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE_INFO,
                     LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP_COUNT,
                     LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP_INFO,
                     LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_COUNT,
                     LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO.

                   Updated examples.

0.5.0  2006-12-17  MIDI instrument mapping, second round, according to
                   LSCP 1.2 draft document as of December 15, 2006.

                   New client interface functions:
                     lscp_set_channel_midi_map();
                     lscp_add_midi_instrument_map();
                     lscp_remove_midi_instrument_map();
                     lscp_get_midi_instrument_maps();
                     lscp_list_midi_instrument_maps();
                     lscp_get_midi_instrument_map_name();
                     lscp_set_midi_instrument_map_name();


0.4.2  2006-12-04  MIDI instrument mapping fixed, previously missing
                   the regular ON_DEMAND load mode.

                   Server error reporting is now effective; all server
                   numerical error and warning codes are added to 100,
                   thus giving a proper non-zero lscp_client_get_errno()
                   return value.

0.4.1  2006-11-28  Fixed the flush timeout operation to be issued only
                   once, avoiding recurrent client failure after receive
                   timeout.

                   Support for very long command result sets have been
                   introduced, with the downside of strictly obeying
                   the LSCP draft.

                   list_midi_instruments() is now being implemented.

                   LGPL text is now back in COPYING.

0.4.0  2006-11-27  As of the LSCP 1.2 working draft document, added
                   some missing client interface functions:
                     lscp_get_total_voice_count();
                     lscp_get_total_voice_count_max();
                   and for the new MIDI instrumenbt mapping features:
                     lscp_map_midi_instrument();
                     lscp_unmap_midi_instrument();
                     lscp_get_midi_instruments();
                     lscp_get_midi_instrument_info();
                     lscp_clear_midi_instruments();


0.3.4  2006-09-24  GPL address update.

0.3.3  2006-06-01  Fixed some compilation warnings due to suspicious type
                   casting and unsused header macros.

                   Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license
                   and added ldconfig to post-(un)install steps
                   to liblscp.spec (RPM).

0.3.2  2005-08-29  Fixed missing initialization bug on lscp_channel_info_t
                   new struct fields (mute/solo).

                   Include debian files into distribution.

                   Renamed configure.in to newer configure.ac.

0.3.1  2005-08-16  [bug #21] Fixed automake support for separate build
                   directory.

                   Added support to sampler channel MUTE/SOLO states:
                     lscp_set_channel_mute();
                     lscp_set_channel_solo();
                   with corresponding new lscp_channel_info_t fields.

0.3.0  2005-06-10  [bug #11] Timeout flush idiosyncrasy is now a feature;
                   this just tries to flush the receive buffer whenever
                   any previous transaction has failed due to a timeout.

                   Fixed an off-by-one timeout quirk, that has been a real
                   showstopper on Mac OS X at least, which is incidental
                   to qsampler's default timeout setting of 1000 msecs,
                   giving up systematically on select() due to "Invalid
                   argument" (EINVAL).


0.2.8  2005-05-22  More LSCP command syntax changes, particularly on the
                   event subscription ones: the LSCP_EVENT_CHANNELS event
                   definition were renamed to LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_COUNT,
                   as to be more meaningful. Added support for the newest
                   LSCP command: GET SERVER INFO; lscp_get_server_info().

0.2.8  2005-05-08  [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
                   consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
                   sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers; this has
                   affected the signature of the following functions:
                     lscp_get_available_engines();
                     lscp_get_available_audio_drivers();
                     lscp_get_available_midi_drivers();
                   which are now returning an integer count of engines
                   and drivers, respectively, while the following
                   functions are now being introduced:
                     lscp_list_available_engines();
                     lscp_list_available_audio_drivers();
                     lscp_list_available_midi_drivers();
                   taking on the previous functionality, returning
                   a comma separated list of names.

0.2.7  2005-03-10  Mini bitsy regression; a severe crash (segfault)
                   was fixed on the device configuration functions:
                     lscp_set_audio_device_param();
                     lscp_set_midi_device_param();
                     lscp_set_audio_channel_param();
                     lscp_set_midi_port_param();

0.2.6  2005-03-01  Fixed nasty off-by-one bug on internal helpers.

0.2.5  2005-02-14  Added support for the new INSTRUMENT_NAME field
                   of GET CHANNEL INFO command.

0.2.4  2004-10-11  Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() again, MIDI
                   channels should be given in the range 0-15, and omni
                   mode with the LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL symbol (16).

                   Fixed lscp_get_channel_info() to parse MIDI omni
                   (ALL) channels mode.

0.2.3  2004-09-28  Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() where MIDI
                   channels should be given in the range 1-16, and
                   omni mode with the new LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL
                   symbol (0).

                   Rearrangement on main command requester executive.

0.2.2  2004-07-29  In sync with LSCP document draf (v.12).

                   New functions added: lscp_client_get_events() and
                   lscp_reset_sampler().

                   Added support for generating Debian packages;
                   renamed pkg-config lib name 'liblscp' -> 'lscp' as
                   it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix.

0.2.1  2004-07-09  Potential cripling defects habve been fixed.

0.2.0  2004-07-06  New LSCP extension draft (v.11) initial support.
                   (still a work in progress...)


0.1.9  2004-05-18  More fixes for MSVC++ example build.

0.1.8  2004-05-17  Fix for MSVC++ example build; snprintf replaced by
                   buffer overflow friendlier sprintf.

0.1.7  2004-05-10  Missing version.h now included on install; WIN32 is
                   only now conditionally defined.

0.1.6  2004-05-04  WIN32 build support; LPGL disclaimer consistency;
                   versioning functions introduced.

0.1.5  2004-04-26  Server stuff moved into examples.

0.1.4  2004-04-24  Initial auto/libtool preparation.

111	capela	1031	0.5.3 2007-01-15 Added new client interface functions, for sampler
112			channel effect sends control:
113			lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();

144	capela	975	0.5.0 2006-12-17 MIDI instrument mapping, second round, according to
145			LSCP 1.2 draft document as of December 15, 2006.
146
147			New client interface functions:
148			lscp_set_channel_midi_map();

155
156
157	capela	965	0.4.2 2006-12-04 MIDI instrument mapping fixed, previously missing
158	capela	963	the regular ON_DEMAND load mode.
159
160			Server error reporting is now effective; all server
161			numerical error and warning codes are added to 100,
162			thus giving a proper non-zero lscp_client_get_errno()
163			return value.
164
165	capela	948	0.4.1 2006-11-28 Fixed the flush timeout operation to be issued only
166			once, avoiding recurrent client failure after receive
167			timeout.
168
169			Support for very long command result sets have been
170			introduced, with the downside of strictly obeying
171			the LSCP draft.
172
173			list_midi_instruments() is now being implemented.
174
175			LGPL text is now back in COPYING.
176
177	capela	946	0.4.0 2006-11-27 As of the LSCP 1.2 working draft document, added
178			some missing client interface functions:
179			lscp_get_total_voice_count();
180			lscp_get_total_voice_count_max();
181			and for the new MIDI instrumenbt mapping features:
182			lscp_map_midi_instrument();
183			lscp_unmap_midi_instrument();
184			lscp_get_midi_instruments();
185			lscp_get_midi_instrument_info();
186			lscp_clear_midi_instruments();
187
188
189	capela	921	0.3.4 2006-09-24 GPL address update.
190
191	capela	869	0.3.3 2006-06-01 Fixed some compilation warnings due to suspicious type
192			casting and unsused header macros.
193
194			Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license
195			and added ldconfig to post-(un)install steps
196			to liblscp.spec (RPM).
197
198	capela	764	0.3.2 2005-08-29 Fixed missing initialization bug on lscp_channel_info_t
199	capela	749	new struct fields (mute/solo).
200
201			Include debian files into distribution.
202
203	capela	754	Renamed configure.in to newer configure.ac.
204
205	capela	735	0.3.1 2005-08-16 [bug #21] Fixed automake support for separate build
206	capela	712	directory.
207	capela	749
208	capela	735	Added support to sampler channel MUTE/SOLO states:
209			lscp_set_channel_mute();
210			lscp_set_channel_solo();
211			with corresponding new lscp_channel_info_t fields.
212	capela	712
213	capela	626	0.3.0 2005-06-10 [bug #11] Timeout flush idiosyncrasy is now a feature;
214	capela	623	this just tries to flush the receive buffer whenever
215			any previous transaction has failed due to a timeout.
216
217	capela	626	Fixed an off-by-one timeout quirk, that has been a real
218			showstopper on Mac OS X at least, which is incidental
219			to qsampler's default timeout setting of 1000 msecs,
220			giving up systematically on select() due to "Invalid
221			argument" (EINVAL).
222
223	capela	946
224	capela	562	0.2.8 2005-05-22 More LSCP command syntax changes, particularly on the
225			event subscription ones: the LSCP_EVENT_CHANNELS event
226			definition were renamed to LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_COUNT,
227	capela	564	as to be more meaningful. Added support for the newest
228			LSCP command: GET SERVER INFO; lscp_get_server_info().
229	capela	562
230	schoenebeck	1802	0.2.8 2005-05-08 [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
231			consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
232			sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers; this has
233	capela	523	affected the signature of the following functions:
234			lscp_get_available_engines();
235			lscp_get_available_audio_drivers();
236			lscp_get_available_midi_drivers();
237			which are now returning an integer count of engines
238	schoenebeck	1802	and drivers, respectively, while the following
239	capela	523	functions are now being introduced:
240			lscp_list_available_engines();
241			lscp_list_available_audio_drivers();
242			lscp_list_available_midi_drivers();
243			taking on the previous functionality, returning
244			a comma separated list of names.
245
246	capela	445	0.2.7 2005-03-10 Mini bitsy regression; a severe crash (segfault)
247	capela	435	was fixed on the device configuration functions:
248			lscp_set_audio_device_param();
249			lscp_set_midi_device_param();
250			lscp_set_audio_channel_param();
251			lscp_set_midi_port_param();
252	capela	419
253	capela	415	0.2.6 2005-03-01 Fixed nasty off-by-one bug on internal helpers.
254
255	capela	380	0.2.5 2005-02-14 Added support for the new INSTRUMENT_NAME field
256	capela	378	of GET CHANNEL INFO command.
257
258	capela	278	0.2.4 2004-10-11 Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() again, MIDI
259			channels should be given in the range 0-15, and omni
260			mode with the LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL symbol (16).
261	capela	415
262	capela	279	Fixed lscp_get_channel_info() to parse MIDI omni
263			(ALL) channels mode.
264	capela	278
265	capela	257	0.2.3 2004-09-28 Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() where MIDI
266			channels should be given in the range 1-16, and
267			omni mode with the new LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL
268			symbol (0).
269	capela	415
270	capela	253	Rearrangement on main command requester executive.
271
272	capela	213	0.2.2 2004-07-29 In sync with LSCP document draf (v.12).
273
274			New functions added: lscp_client_get_events() and
275			lscp_reset_sampler().
276
277			Added support for generating Debian packages;
278	schoenebeck	199	renamed pkg-config lib name 'liblscp' -> 'lscp' as
279			it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix.
280
281	capela	194	0.2.1 2004-07-09 Potential cripling defects habve been fixed.
282	capela	187
283	capela	178	0.2.0 2004-07-06 New LSCP extension draft (v.11) initial support.
284	capela	103	(still a work in progress...)
285
286	capela	946
287	capela	103	0.1.9 2004-05-18 More fixes for MSVC++ example build.
288
289			0.1.8 2004-05-17 Fix for MSVC++ example build; snprintf replaced by
290			buffer overflow friendlier sprintf.
291
292			0.1.7 2004-05-10 Missing version.h now included on install; WIN32 is
293			only now conditionally defined.
294
295			0.1.6 2004-05-04 WIN32 build support; LPGL disclaimer consistency;
296			versioning functions introduced.
297
298			0.1.5 2004-04-26 Server stuff moved into examples.
299
300			0.1.4 2004-04-24 Initial auto/libtool preparation.
