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.

81	schoenebeck	1689	LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_MIDI
82	schoenebeck	1697	LSCP_EVENT_DEVICE_MIDI
83	schoenebeck	1689	Caution: the bitflag approach for the event variable
84			is now abondoned, since otherwise we would soon hit the
85			limit of the bit range. The bitflag approach will
86			remain for events older at this point (that is all
87			events which occupy the lower 16 bits), but this new
88			and all following events will simply be enumared along
89			the upper 16 bits.
90
91			Added new client interface function, for renaming
92	schoenebeck	1665	effect send entities:
93			lscp_set_fxsend_name();
94
95	schoenebeck	1802	Added new client interface functions, for managing the
96			global limit of maximum voices and disk streams:
97			lscp_get_voices();
98			lscp_set_voices();
99			lscp_get_streams();
100			lscp_set_streams();
101
102	schoenebeck	1806	Bugfix: fixed buggy behavior on different locale
103			settings (e.g. when parsing floating point numbers).
104
105	capela	1412	0.5.5 2007-10-12 Changed client interface function, for editing
106			instrument, from:
107			lscp_edit_instrument();
108			to:
109			lscp_edit_channel_instrument();
110
111	capela	1368	0.5.4 2007-10-02 Added new client interface function, for editing
112	schoenebeck	1365	instrument:
113			lscp_edit_instrument();
114
115			Fixed some minor bugs in:
116			lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
117			lscp_set_fxsend_level();
118
119	capela	1031	0.5.3 2007-01-15 Added new client interface functions, for sampler
120			channel effect sends control:
121			lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
122			lscp_set_fxsend_level();
123
124			Added new field member to lscp_fxsend_info_t (level).
125
126	capela	1019	0.5.2 2007-01-11 Added new client interface functions, for sampler
127			channel effect sends control:
128			lscp_create_fxsend();

137
138	capela	1031	Audio routing representation changed to integer array.
139	capela	1020
140	capela	997	0.5.1 2006-12-22 Added support for new (un)subscribable events:
141	capela	994	LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_COUNT,
142			LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_INFO,

149	schoenebeck	1802
150	capela	994	Updated examples.
151	capela	983
152	capela	975	0.5.0 2006-12-17 MIDI instrument mapping, second round, according to
153			LSCP 1.2 draft document as of December 15, 2006.
154
155			New client interface functions:
156			lscp_set_channel_midi_map();

158			lscp_remove_midi_instrument_map();
159			lscp_get_midi_instrument_maps();
160			lscp_list_midi_instrument_maps();
161			lscp_get_midi_instrument_map_name();
162			lscp_set_midi_instrument_map_name();
163
164
165	capela	965	0.4.2 2006-12-04 MIDI instrument mapping fixed, previously missing
166	capela	963	the regular ON_DEMAND load mode.
167
168			Server error reporting is now effective; all server
169			numerical error and warning codes are added to 100,
170			thus giving a proper non-zero lscp_client_get_errno()
171			return value.
172
173	capela	948	0.4.1 2006-11-28 Fixed the flush timeout operation to be issued only
174			once, avoiding recurrent client failure after receive
175			timeout.
176
177			Support for very long command result sets have been
178			introduced, with the downside of strictly obeying
179			the LSCP draft.
180
181			list_midi_instruments() is now being implemented.
182
183			LGPL text is now back in COPYING.
184
185	capela	946	0.4.0 2006-11-27 As of the LSCP 1.2 working draft document, added
186			some missing client interface functions:
187			lscp_get_total_voice_count();
188			lscp_get_total_voice_count_max();
189			and for the new MIDI instrumenbt mapping features:
190			lscp_map_midi_instrument();
191			lscp_unmap_midi_instrument();
192			lscp_get_midi_instruments();
193			lscp_get_midi_instrument_info();
194			lscp_clear_midi_instruments();
195
196
197	capela	921	0.3.4 2006-09-24 GPL address update.
198
199	capela	869	0.3.3 2006-06-01 Fixed some compilation warnings due to suspicious type
200			casting and unsused header macros.
201
202			Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license
203			and added ldconfig to post-(un)install steps
204			to liblscp.spec (RPM).
205
206	capela	764	0.3.2 2005-08-29 Fixed missing initialization bug on lscp_channel_info_t
207	capela	749	new struct fields (mute/solo).
208
209			Include debian files into distribution.
210
211	capela	754	Renamed configure.in to newer configure.ac.
212
213	capela	735	0.3.1 2005-08-16 [bug #21] Fixed automake support for separate build
214	capela	712	directory.
215	capela	749
216	capela	735	Added support to sampler channel MUTE/SOLO states:
217			lscp_set_channel_mute();
218			lscp_set_channel_solo();
219			with corresponding new lscp_channel_info_t fields.
220	capela	712
221	capela	626	0.3.0 2005-06-10 [bug #11] Timeout flush idiosyncrasy is now a feature;
222	capela	623	this just tries to flush the receive buffer whenever
223			any previous transaction has failed due to a timeout.
224
225	capela	626	Fixed an off-by-one timeout quirk, that has been a real
226			showstopper on Mac OS X at least, which is incidental
227			to qsampler's default timeout setting of 1000 msecs,
228			giving up systematically on select() due to "Invalid
229			argument" (EINVAL).
230
231	capela	946
232	capela	562	0.2.8 2005-05-22 More LSCP command syntax changes, particularly on the
233			event subscription ones: the LSCP_EVENT_CHANNELS event
234			definition were renamed to LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_COUNT,
235	capela	564	as to be more meaningful. Added support for the newest
236			LSCP command: GET SERVER INFO; lscp_get_server_info().
237	capela	562
238	schoenebeck	1802	0.2.8 2005-05-08 [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
239			consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
240			sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers; this has
241	capela	523	affected the signature of the following functions:
242			lscp_get_available_engines();
243			lscp_get_available_audio_drivers();
244			lscp_get_available_midi_drivers();
245			which are now returning an integer count of engines
246	schoenebeck	1802	and drivers, respectively, while the following
247	capela	523	functions are now being introduced:
248			lscp_list_available_engines();
249			lscp_list_available_audio_drivers();
250			lscp_list_available_midi_drivers();
251			taking on the previous functionality, returning
252			a comma separated list of names.
253
254	capela	445	0.2.7 2005-03-10 Mini bitsy regression; a severe crash (segfault)
255	capela	435	was fixed on the device configuration functions:
256			lscp_set_audio_device_param();
257			lscp_set_midi_device_param();
258			lscp_set_audio_channel_param();
259			lscp_set_midi_port_param();
260	capela	419
261	capela	415	0.2.6 2005-03-01 Fixed nasty off-by-one bug on internal helpers.
262
263	capela	380	0.2.5 2005-02-14 Added support for the new INSTRUMENT_NAME field
264	capela	378	of GET CHANNEL INFO command.
265
266	capela	278	0.2.4 2004-10-11 Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() again, MIDI
267			channels should be given in the range 0-15, and omni
268			mode with the LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL symbol (16).
269	capela	415
270	capela	279	Fixed lscp_get_channel_info() to parse MIDI omni
271			(ALL) channels mode.
272	capela	278
273	capela	257	0.2.3 2004-09-28 Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() where MIDI
274			channels should be given in the range 1-16, and
275			omni mode with the new LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL
276			symbol (0).
277	capela	415
278	capela	253	Rearrangement on main command requester executive.
279
280	capela	213	0.2.2 2004-07-29 In sync with LSCP document draf (v.12).
281
282			New functions added: lscp_client_get_events() and
283			lscp_reset_sampler().
284
285			Added support for generating Debian packages;
286	schoenebeck	199	renamed pkg-config lib name 'liblscp' -> 'lscp' as
287			it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix.
288
289	capela	194	0.2.1 2004-07-09 Potential cripling defects habve been fixed.
290	capela	187
291	capela	178	0.2.0 2004-07-06 New LSCP extension draft (v.11) initial support.
292	capela	103	(still a work in progress...)
293
294	capela	946
295	capela	103	0.1.9 2004-05-18 More fixes for MSVC++ example build.
296
297			0.1.8 2004-05-17 Fix for MSVC++ example build; snprintf replaced by
298			buffer overflow friendlier sprintf.
299
300			0.1.7 2004-05-10 Missing version.h now included on install; WIN32 is
301			only now conditionally defined.
302
303			0.1.6 2004-05-04 WIN32 build support; LPGL disclaimer consistency;
304			versioning functions introduced.
305
306			0.1.5 2004-04-26 Server stuff moved into examples.
307
308			0.1.4 2004-04-24 Initial auto/libtool preparation.
