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.

0.6.0  2017-12-12  An Autumn'17 release.

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.

83			limit of the bit range. The bitflag approach will
84			remain for events older at this point (that is all
85			events which occupy the lower 16 bits), but this new
86			and all following events will simply be enumared along
87			the upper 16 bits.
88
89			Added new client interface function, for renaming
90	schoenebeck	1665	effect send entities:
91			lscp_set_fxsend_name();
92
93	schoenebeck	1802	Added new client interface functions, for managing the
94			global limit of maximum voices and disk streams:
95			lscp_get_voices();
96			lscp_set_voices();
97			lscp_get_streams();
98			lscp_set_streams();
99
100	schoenebeck	1806	Bugfix: fixed buggy behavior on different locale
101			settings (e.g. when parsing floating point numbers).
102
103	capela	1412	0.5.5 2007-10-12 Changed client interface function, for editing
104			instrument, from:
105			lscp_edit_instrument();
106			to:
107			lscp_edit_channel_instrument();
108
109	capela	1368	0.5.4 2007-10-02 Added new client interface function, for editing
110	schoenebeck	1365	instrument:
111			lscp_edit_instrument();
112
113			Fixed some minor bugs in:
114			lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
115			lscp_set_fxsend_level();
116
117	capela	1031	0.5.3 2007-01-15 Added new client interface functions, for sampler
118			channel effect sends control:
119			lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
120			lscp_set_fxsend_level();
121
122			Added new field member to lscp_fxsend_info_t (level).
123
124	capela	1019	0.5.2 2007-01-11 Added new client interface functions, for sampler
125			channel effect sends control:
126			lscp_create_fxsend();
127			lscp_destroy_fxsend();
128			lscp_get_fxsends();
129			lscp_list_fxsends();
130			lscp_get_fxsend_info();
131			lscp_set_fxsend_audio_channel();
132	capela	1369	and for global volume:
133	capela	1019	lscp_get_volume();
134			lscp_set_volume();
135
136	capela	1031	Audio routing representation changed to integer array.
137	capela	1020
138	capela	997	0.5.1 2006-12-22 Added support for new (un)subscribable events:
139	capela	994	LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_COUNT,
140			LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_INFO,
141			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE_COUNT,
142			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE_INFO,
143			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP_COUNT,
144			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP_INFO,
145			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_COUNT,
146			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO.
147	schoenebeck	1802
148	capela	994	Updated examples.
149	capela	983
150	capela	975	0.5.0 2006-12-17 MIDI instrument mapping, second round, according to
151			LSCP 1.2 draft document as of December 15, 2006.
152
153			New client interface functions:
154			lscp_set_channel_midi_map();
155			lscp_add_midi_instrument_map();
156			lscp_remove_midi_instrument_map();
157			lscp_get_midi_instrument_maps();
158			lscp_list_midi_instrument_maps();
159			lscp_get_midi_instrument_map_name();
160			lscp_set_midi_instrument_map_name();
161
162
163	capela	965	0.4.2 2006-12-04 MIDI instrument mapping fixed, previously missing
164	capela	963	the regular ON_DEMAND load mode.
165
166			Server error reporting is now effective; all server
167			numerical error and warning codes are added to 100,
168			thus giving a proper non-zero lscp_client_get_errno()
169			return value.
170
171	capela	948	0.4.1 2006-11-28 Fixed the flush timeout operation to be issued only
172			once, avoiding recurrent client failure after receive
173			timeout.
174
175			Support for very long command result sets have been
176			introduced, with the downside of strictly obeying
177			the LSCP draft.
178
179			list_midi_instruments() is now being implemented.
180
181			LGPL text is now back in COPYING.
182
183	capela	946	0.4.0 2006-11-27 As of the LSCP 1.2 working draft document, added
184			some missing client interface functions:
185			lscp_get_total_voice_count();
186			lscp_get_total_voice_count_max();
187			and for the new MIDI instrumenbt mapping features:
188			lscp_map_midi_instrument();
189			lscp_unmap_midi_instrument();
190			lscp_get_midi_instruments();
191			lscp_get_midi_instrument_info();
192			lscp_clear_midi_instruments();
193
194
195	capela	921	0.3.4 2006-09-24 GPL address update.
196
197	capela	869	0.3.3 2006-06-01 Fixed some compilation warnings due to suspicious type
198			casting and unsused header macros.
199
200			Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license
201			and added ldconfig to post-(un)install steps
202			to liblscp.spec (RPM).
203
204	capela	764	0.3.2 2005-08-29 Fixed missing initialization bug on lscp_channel_info_t
205	capela	749	new struct fields (mute/solo).
206
207			Include debian files into distribution.
208
209	capela	754	Renamed configure.in to newer configure.ac.
210
211	capela	735	0.3.1 2005-08-16 [bug #21] Fixed automake support for separate build
212	capela	712	directory.
213	capela	749
214	capela	735	Added support to sampler channel MUTE/SOLO states:
215			lscp_set_channel_mute();
216			lscp_set_channel_solo();
217			with corresponding new lscp_channel_info_t fields.
218	capela	712
219	capela	626	0.3.0 2005-06-10 [bug #11] Timeout flush idiosyncrasy is now a feature;
220	capela	623	this just tries to flush the receive buffer whenever
221			any previous transaction has failed due to a timeout.
222
223	capela	626	Fixed an off-by-one timeout quirk, that has been a real
224			showstopper on Mac OS X at least, which is incidental
225			to qsampler's default timeout setting of 1000 msecs,
226			giving up systematically on select() due to "Invalid
227			argument" (EINVAL).
228
229	capela	946
230	capela	562	0.2.8 2005-05-22 More LSCP command syntax changes, particularly on the
231			event subscription ones: the LSCP_EVENT_CHANNELS event
232			definition were renamed to LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_COUNT,
233	capela	564	as to be more meaningful. Added support for the newest
234			LSCP command: GET SERVER INFO; lscp_get_server_info().
235	capela	562
236	schoenebeck	1802	0.2.8 2005-05-08 [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
237			consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
238			sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers; this has
239	capela	523	affected the signature of the following functions:
240			lscp_get_available_engines();
241			lscp_get_available_audio_drivers();
242			lscp_get_available_midi_drivers();
243			which are now returning an integer count of engines
244	schoenebeck	1802	and drivers, respectively, while the following
245	capela	523	functions are now being introduced:
246			lscp_list_available_engines();
247			lscp_list_available_audio_drivers();
248			lscp_list_available_midi_drivers();
249			taking on the previous functionality, returning
250			a comma separated list of names.
251
252	capela	445	0.2.7 2005-03-10 Mini bitsy regression; a severe crash (segfault)
253	capela	435	was fixed on the device configuration functions:
254			lscp_set_audio_device_param();
255			lscp_set_midi_device_param();
256			lscp_set_audio_channel_param();
257			lscp_set_midi_port_param();
258	capela	419
259	capela	415	0.2.6 2005-03-01 Fixed nasty off-by-one bug on internal helpers.
260
261	capela	380	0.2.5 2005-02-14 Added support for the new INSTRUMENT_NAME field
262	capela	378	of GET CHANNEL INFO command.
263
264	capela	278	0.2.4 2004-10-11 Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() again, MIDI
265			channels should be given in the range 0-15, and omni
266			mode with the LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL symbol (16).
267	capela	415
268	capela	279	Fixed lscp_get_channel_info() to parse MIDI omni
269			(ALL) channels mode.
270	capela	278
271	capela	257	0.2.3 2004-09-28 Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() where MIDI
272			channels should be given in the range 1-16, and
273			omni mode with the new LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL
274			symbol (0).
275	capela	415
276	capela	253	Rearrangement on main command requester executive.
277
278	capela	213	0.2.2 2004-07-29 In sync with LSCP document draf (v.12).
279
280			New functions added: lscp_client_get_events() and
281			lscp_reset_sampler().
282
283			Added support for generating Debian packages;
284	schoenebeck	199	renamed pkg-config lib name 'liblscp' -> 'lscp' as
285			it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix.
286
287	capela	194	0.2.1 2004-07-09 Potential cripling defects habve been fixed.
288	capela	187
289	capela	178	0.2.0 2004-07-06 New LSCP extension draft (v.11) initial support.
290	capela	103	(still a work in progress...)
291
292	capela	946
293	capela	103	0.1.9 2004-05-18 More fixes for MSVC++ example build.
294
295			0.1.8 2004-05-17 Fix for MSVC++ example build; snprintf replaced by
296			buffer overflow friendlier sprintf.
297
298			0.1.7 2004-05-10 Missing version.h now included on install; WIN32 is
299			only now conditionally defined.
300
301			0.1.6 2004-05-04 WIN32 build support; LPGL disclaimer consistency;
302			versioning functions introduced.
303
304			0.1.5 2004-04-26 Server stuff moved into examples.
305
306			0.1.4 2004-04-24 Initial auto/libtool preparation.
