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.

79	schoenebeck	1711	Bugfix: _lscp_client_evt_proc() dropped LSCP events.
80
81	schoenebeck	1692	Bugfix in lscp_client_subscribe(): only the first
82	schoenebeck	1690	lscp_client_subscribe() call succeeded (per client),
83			all subsequent ones failed.
84
85			Added support for new (un)subscribable events:
86	schoenebeck	1689	LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_MIDI
87	schoenebeck	1697	LSCP_EVENT_DEVICE_MIDI
88	schoenebeck	1689	Caution: the bitflag approach for the event variable
89			is now abondoned, since otherwise we would soon hit the
90			limit of the bit range. The bitflag approach will
91			remain for events older at this point (that is all
92			events which occupy the lower 16 bits), but this new
93			and all following events will simply be enumared along
94			the upper 16 bits.
95
96			Added new client interface function, for renaming
97	schoenebeck	1665	effect send entities:
98			lscp_set_fxsend_name();
99
100	schoenebeck	1802	Added new client interface functions, for managing the
101			global limit of maximum voices and disk streams:
102			lscp_get_voices();
103			lscp_set_voices();
104			lscp_get_streams();
105			lscp_set_streams();
106
107	schoenebeck	1806	Bugfix: fixed buggy behavior on different locale
108			settings (e.g. when parsing floating point numbers).
109
110	capela	1412	0.5.5 2007-10-12 Changed client interface function, for editing
111			instrument, from:
112			lscp_edit_instrument();
113			to:
114			lscp_edit_channel_instrument();
115
116	capela	1368	0.5.4 2007-10-02 Added new client interface function, for editing
117	schoenebeck	1365	instrument:
118			lscp_edit_instrument();
119
120			Fixed some minor bugs in:
121			lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
122			lscp_set_fxsend_level();
123
124	capela	1031	0.5.3 2007-01-15 Added new client interface functions, for sampler
125			channel effect sends control:
126			lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
127			lscp_set_fxsend_level();
128
129			Added new field member to lscp_fxsend_info_t (level).
130
131	capela	1019	0.5.2 2007-01-11 Added new client interface functions, for sampler
132			channel effect sends control:
133			lscp_create_fxsend();
134			lscp_destroy_fxsend();
135			lscp_get_fxsends();
136			lscp_list_fxsends();
137			lscp_get_fxsend_info();
138			lscp_set_fxsend_audio_channel();
139	capela	1369	and for global volume:
140	capela	1019	lscp_get_volume();
141			lscp_set_volume();
142
143	capela	1031	Audio routing representation changed to integer array.
144	capela	1020
145	capela	997	0.5.1 2006-12-22 Added support for new (un)subscribable events:
146	capela	994	LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_COUNT,
147			LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_INFO,
148			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE_COUNT,
149			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE_INFO,
150			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP_COUNT,
151			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP_INFO,
152			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_COUNT,
153			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO.
154	schoenebeck	1802
155	capela	994	Updated examples.
156	capela	983
157	capela	975	0.5.0 2006-12-17 MIDI instrument mapping, second round, according to
158			LSCP 1.2 draft document as of December 15, 2006.
159
160			New client interface functions:
161			lscp_set_channel_midi_map();
162			lscp_add_midi_instrument_map();
163			lscp_remove_midi_instrument_map();
164			lscp_get_midi_instrument_maps();
165			lscp_list_midi_instrument_maps();
166			lscp_get_midi_instrument_map_name();
167			lscp_set_midi_instrument_map_name();
168
169
170	capela	965	0.4.2 2006-12-04 MIDI instrument mapping fixed, previously missing
171	capela	963	the regular ON_DEMAND load mode.
172
173			Server error reporting is now effective; all server
174			numerical error and warning codes are added to 100,
175			thus giving a proper non-zero lscp_client_get_errno()
176			return value.
177
178	capela	948	0.4.1 2006-11-28 Fixed the flush timeout operation to be issued only
179			once, avoiding recurrent client failure after receive
180			timeout.
181
182			Support for very long command result sets have been
183			introduced, with the downside of strictly obeying
184			the LSCP draft.
185
186			list_midi_instruments() is now being implemented.
187
188			LGPL text is now back in COPYING.
189
190	capela	946	0.4.0 2006-11-27 As of the LSCP 1.2 working draft document, added
191			some missing client interface functions:
192			lscp_get_total_voice_count();
193			lscp_get_total_voice_count_max();
194			and for the new MIDI instrumenbt mapping features:
195			lscp_map_midi_instrument();
196			lscp_unmap_midi_instrument();
197			lscp_get_midi_instruments();
198			lscp_get_midi_instrument_info();
199			lscp_clear_midi_instruments();
200
201
202	capela	921	0.3.4 2006-09-24 GPL address update.
203
204	capela	869	0.3.3 2006-06-01 Fixed some compilation warnings due to suspicious type
205			casting and unsused header macros.
206
207			Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license
208			and added ldconfig to post-(un)install steps
209			to liblscp.spec (RPM).
210
211	capela	764	0.3.2 2005-08-29 Fixed missing initialization bug on lscp_channel_info_t
212	capela	749	new struct fields (mute/solo).
213
214			Include debian files into distribution.
215
216	capela	754	Renamed configure.in to newer configure.ac.
217
218	capela	735	0.3.1 2005-08-16 [bug #21] Fixed automake support for separate build
219	capela	712	directory.
220	capela	749
221	capela	735	Added support to sampler channel MUTE/SOLO states:
222			lscp_set_channel_mute();
223			lscp_set_channel_solo();
224			with corresponding new lscp_channel_info_t fields.
225	capela	712
226	capela	626	0.3.0 2005-06-10 [bug #11] Timeout flush idiosyncrasy is now a feature;
227	capela	623	this just tries to flush the receive buffer whenever
228			any previous transaction has failed due to a timeout.
229
230	capela	626	Fixed an off-by-one timeout quirk, that has been a real
231			showstopper on Mac OS X at least, which is incidental
232			to qsampler's default timeout setting of 1000 msecs,
233			giving up systematically on select() due to "Invalid
234			argument" (EINVAL).
235
236	capela	946
237	capela	562	0.2.8 2005-05-22 More LSCP command syntax changes, particularly on the
238			event subscription ones: the LSCP_EVENT_CHANNELS event
239			definition were renamed to LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_COUNT,
240	capela	564	as to be more meaningful. Added support for the newest
241			LSCP command: GET SERVER INFO; lscp_get_server_info().
242	capela	562
243	schoenebeck	1802	0.2.8 2005-05-08 [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
244			consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
245			sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers; this has
246	capela	523	affected the signature of the following functions:
247			lscp_get_available_engines();
248			lscp_get_available_audio_drivers();
249			lscp_get_available_midi_drivers();
250			which are now returning an integer count of engines
251	schoenebeck	1802	and drivers, respectively, while the following
252	capela	523	functions are now being introduced:
253			lscp_list_available_engines();
254			lscp_list_available_audio_drivers();
255			lscp_list_available_midi_drivers();
256			taking on the previous functionality, returning
257			a comma separated list of names.
258
259	capela	445	0.2.7 2005-03-10 Mini bitsy regression; a severe crash (segfault)
260	capela	435	was fixed on the device configuration functions:
261			lscp_set_audio_device_param();
262			lscp_set_midi_device_param();
263			lscp_set_audio_channel_param();
264			lscp_set_midi_port_param();
265	capela	419
266	capela	415	0.2.6 2005-03-01 Fixed nasty off-by-one bug on internal helpers.
267
268	capela	380	0.2.5 2005-02-14 Added support for the new INSTRUMENT_NAME field
269	capela	378	of GET CHANNEL INFO command.
270
271	capela	278	0.2.4 2004-10-11 Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() again, MIDI
272			channels should be given in the range 0-15, and omni
273			mode with the LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL symbol (16).
274	capela	415
275	capela	279	Fixed lscp_get_channel_info() to parse MIDI omni
276			(ALL) channels mode.
277	capela	278
278	capela	257	0.2.3 2004-09-28 Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() where MIDI
279			channels should be given in the range 1-16, and
280			omni mode with the new LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL
281			symbol (0).
282	capela	415
283	capela	253	Rearrangement on main command requester executive.
284
285	capela	213	0.2.2 2004-07-29 In sync with LSCP document draf (v.12).
286
287			New functions added: lscp_client_get_events() and
288			lscp_reset_sampler().
289
290			Added support for generating Debian packages;
291	schoenebeck	199	renamed pkg-config lib name 'liblscp' -> 'lscp' as
292			it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix.
293
294	capela	194	0.2.1 2004-07-09 Potential cripling defects habve been fixed.
295	capela	187
296	capela	178	0.2.0 2004-07-06 New LSCP extension draft (v.11) initial support.
297	capela	103	(still a work in progress...)
298
299	capela	946
300	capela	103	0.1.9 2004-05-18 More fixes for MSVC++ example build.
301
302			0.1.8 2004-05-17 Fix for MSVC++ example build; snprintf replaced by
303			buffer overflow friendlier sprintf.
304
305			0.1.7 2004-05-10 Missing version.h now included on install; WIN32 is
306			only now conditionally defined.
307
308			0.1.6 2004-05-04 WIN32 build support; LPGL disclaimer consistency;
309			versioning functions introduced.
310
311			0.1.5 2004-04-26 Server stuff moved into examples.
312
313			0.1.4 2004-04-24 Initial auto/libtool preparation.
