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.

80			all subsequent ones failed.
81
82			Added support for new (un)subscribable events:
83	schoenebeck	1689	LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_MIDI
84	schoenebeck	1697	LSCP_EVENT_DEVICE_MIDI
85	schoenebeck	1689	Caution: the bitflag approach for the event variable
86			is now abondoned, since otherwise we would soon hit the
87			limit of the bit range. The bitflag approach will
88			remain for events older at this point (that is all
89			events which occupy the lower 16 bits), but this new
90			and all following events will simply be enumared along
91			the upper 16 bits.
92
93			Added new client interface function, for renaming
94	schoenebeck	1665	effect send entities:
95			lscp_set_fxsend_name();
96
97	schoenebeck	1802	Added new client interface functions, for managing the
98			global limit of maximum voices and disk streams:
99			lscp_get_voices();
100			lscp_set_voices();
101			lscp_get_streams();
102			lscp_set_streams();
103
104	schoenebeck	1806	Bugfix: fixed buggy behavior on different locale
105			settings (e.g. when parsing floating point numbers).
106
107	capela	1412	0.5.5 2007-10-12 Changed client interface function, for editing
108			instrument, from:
109			lscp_edit_instrument();
110			to:
111			lscp_edit_channel_instrument();
112
113	capela	1368	0.5.4 2007-10-02 Added new client interface function, for editing
114	schoenebeck	1365	instrument:
115			lscp_edit_instrument();
116
117			Fixed some minor bugs in:
118			lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
119			lscp_set_fxsend_level();
120
121	capela	1031	0.5.3 2007-01-15 Added new client interface functions, for sampler
122			channel effect sends control:
123			lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
124			lscp_set_fxsend_level();
125
126			Added new field member to lscp_fxsend_info_t (level).
127
128	capela	1019	0.5.2 2007-01-11 Added new client interface functions, for sampler
129			channel effect sends control:
130			lscp_create_fxsend();
131			lscp_destroy_fxsend();
132			lscp_get_fxsends();
133			lscp_list_fxsends();
134			lscp_get_fxsend_info();
135			lscp_set_fxsend_audio_channel();
136	capela	1369	and for global volume:
137	capela	1019	lscp_get_volume();
138			lscp_set_volume();
139
140	capela	1031	Audio routing representation changed to integer array.
141	capela	1020
142	capela	997	0.5.1 2006-12-22 Added support for new (un)subscribable events:
143	capela	994	LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_COUNT,
144			LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_INFO,
145			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE_COUNT,
146			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE_INFO,
147			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP_COUNT,
148			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP_INFO,
149			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_COUNT,
150			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO.
151	schoenebeck	1802
152	capela	994	Updated examples.
153	capela	983
154	capela	975	0.5.0 2006-12-17 MIDI instrument mapping, second round, according to
155			LSCP 1.2 draft document as of December 15, 2006.
156
157			New client interface functions:
158			lscp_set_channel_midi_map();
159			lscp_add_midi_instrument_map();
160			lscp_remove_midi_instrument_map();
161			lscp_get_midi_instrument_maps();
162			lscp_list_midi_instrument_maps();
163			lscp_get_midi_instrument_map_name();
164			lscp_set_midi_instrument_map_name();
165
166
167	capela	965	0.4.2 2006-12-04 MIDI instrument mapping fixed, previously missing
168	capela	963	the regular ON_DEMAND load mode.
169
170			Server error reporting is now effective; all server
171			numerical error and warning codes are added to 100,
172			thus giving a proper non-zero lscp_client_get_errno()
173			return value.
174
175	capela	948	0.4.1 2006-11-28 Fixed the flush timeout operation to be issued only
176			once, avoiding recurrent client failure after receive
177			timeout.
178
179			Support for very long command result sets have been
180			introduced, with the downside of strictly obeying
181			the LSCP draft.
182
183			list_midi_instruments() is now being implemented.
184
185			LGPL text is now back in COPYING.
186
187	capela	946	0.4.0 2006-11-27 As of the LSCP 1.2 working draft document, added
188			some missing client interface functions:
189			lscp_get_total_voice_count();
190			lscp_get_total_voice_count_max();
191			and for the new MIDI instrumenbt mapping features:
192			lscp_map_midi_instrument();
193			lscp_unmap_midi_instrument();
194			lscp_get_midi_instruments();
195			lscp_get_midi_instrument_info();
196			lscp_clear_midi_instruments();
197
198
199	capela	921	0.3.4 2006-09-24 GPL address update.
200
201	capela	869	0.3.3 2006-06-01 Fixed some compilation warnings due to suspicious type
202			casting and unsused header macros.
203
204			Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license
205			and added ldconfig to post-(un)install steps
206			to liblscp.spec (RPM).
207
208	capela	764	0.3.2 2005-08-29 Fixed missing initialization bug on lscp_channel_info_t
209	capela	749	new struct fields (mute/solo).
210
211			Include debian files into distribution.
212
213	capela	754	Renamed configure.in to newer configure.ac.
214
215	capela	735	0.3.1 2005-08-16 [bug #21] Fixed automake support for separate build
216	capela	712	directory.
217	capela	749
218	capela	735	Added support to sampler channel MUTE/SOLO states:
219			lscp_set_channel_mute();
220			lscp_set_channel_solo();
221			with corresponding new lscp_channel_info_t fields.
222	capela	712
223	capela	626	0.3.0 2005-06-10 [bug #11] Timeout flush idiosyncrasy is now a feature;
224	capela	623	this just tries to flush the receive buffer whenever
225			any previous transaction has failed due to a timeout.
226
227	capela	626	Fixed an off-by-one timeout quirk, that has been a real
228			showstopper on Mac OS X at least, which is incidental
229			to qsampler's default timeout setting of 1000 msecs,
230			giving up systematically on select() due to "Invalid
231			argument" (EINVAL).
232
233	capela	946
234	capela	562	0.2.8 2005-05-22 More LSCP command syntax changes, particularly on the
235			event subscription ones: the LSCP_EVENT_CHANNELS event
236			definition were renamed to LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_COUNT,
237	capela	564	as to be more meaningful. Added support for the newest
238			LSCP command: GET SERVER INFO; lscp_get_server_info().
239	capela	562
240	schoenebeck	1802	0.2.8 2005-05-08 [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
241			consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
242			sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers; this has
243	capela	523	affected the signature of the following functions:
244			lscp_get_available_engines();
245			lscp_get_available_audio_drivers();
246			lscp_get_available_midi_drivers();
247			which are now returning an integer count of engines
248	schoenebeck	1802	and drivers, respectively, while the following
249	capela	523	functions are now being introduced:
250			lscp_list_available_engines();
251			lscp_list_available_audio_drivers();
252			lscp_list_available_midi_drivers();
253			taking on the previous functionality, returning
254			a comma separated list of names.
255
256	capela	445	0.2.7 2005-03-10 Mini bitsy regression; a severe crash (segfault)
257	capela	435	was fixed on the device configuration functions:
258			lscp_set_audio_device_param();
259			lscp_set_midi_device_param();
260			lscp_set_audio_channel_param();
261			lscp_set_midi_port_param();
262	capela	419
263	capela	415	0.2.6 2005-03-01 Fixed nasty off-by-one bug on internal helpers.
264
265	capela	380	0.2.5 2005-02-14 Added support for the new INSTRUMENT_NAME field
266	capela	378	of GET CHANNEL INFO command.
267
268	capela	278	0.2.4 2004-10-11 Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() again, MIDI
269			channels should be given in the range 0-15, and omni
270			mode with the LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL symbol (16).
271	capela	415
272	capela	279	Fixed lscp_get_channel_info() to parse MIDI omni
273			(ALL) channels mode.
274	capela	278
275	capela	257	0.2.3 2004-09-28 Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() where MIDI
276			channels should be given in the range 1-16, and
277			omni mode with the new LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL
278			symbol (0).
279	capela	415
280	capela	253	Rearrangement on main command requester executive.
281
282	capela	213	0.2.2 2004-07-29 In sync with LSCP document draf (v.12).
283
284			New functions added: lscp_client_get_events() and
285			lscp_reset_sampler().
286
287			Added support for generating Debian packages;
288	schoenebeck	199	renamed pkg-config lib name 'liblscp' -> 'lscp' as
289			it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix.
290
291	capela	194	0.2.1 2004-07-09 Potential cripling defects habve been fixed.
292	capela	187
293	capela	178	0.2.0 2004-07-06 New LSCP extension draft (v.11) initial support.
294	capela	103	(still a work in progress...)
295
296	capela	946
297	capela	103	0.1.9 2004-05-18 More fixes for MSVC++ example build.
298
299			0.1.8 2004-05-17 Fix for MSVC++ example build; snprintf replaced by
300			buffer overflow friendlier sprintf.
301
302			0.1.7 2004-05-10 Missing version.h now included on install; WIN32 is
303			only now conditionally defined.
304
305			0.1.6 2004-05-04 WIN32 build support; LPGL disclaimer consistency;
306			versioning functions introduced.
307
308			0.1.5 2004-04-26 Server stuff moved into examples.
309
310			0.1.4 2004-04-24 Initial auto/libtool preparation.
