3    * packaging changes:    * packaging changes:
4        - added autoconf checks for pthread library
5        - added autoconf check for pthread bug found on certain NPTL-enabled
6          glibc versions (see Gentoo bug report #194076)
7        - added autoconf checks for MS Windows
8    
9      * general changes:
10        - bugfix: the thread used by an editor plugin didn't die when the
11          editor closed
12        - bugfix: Ringbuffer.h: fill_write_space_with_null() did not zero
13          out all the space. operator--() did not apply size_mask after
14          decrementing the read_ptr. DEFAULT_WRAP_ELEMENTS set to 0 in
15          order to avoid problems with the _NonVolatileReader functions.
16        - bugfix: Stream.h: added a missing divide by BytesPerSample in
17          GetWriteSpace(). Since this function is currently only used in
18          the stream's qsort() compare function, it didn't trigger any
19          bugs.
20        - Resampler.h, Synthesizer.h: cubic interpolation now works in
21          24bit mode too. Faster method to read 24bit words on little
22          endian machines (x86): replaced 3 byte reads + shifts with a 1
23          unaligned 32bit read and shift
24        - experimental support for MS Windows (MIDI input via MME, AUDIO
25          output via ASIO)
26        - made handling of SIGINT signal (Ctrl-C) a bit more robust
27    
28      * AUDIO driver:
29        - added Windows ASIO low latency audio driver
30    
31      * MIDI driver:
32        - added MME Windows MIDI driver
33    
34      * LSCP server:
35        - added support for Windows style path / filenames, however with
36          forward slash path separators instead of backslash
37          (i.e. "C:/foo/bar.gig")
38        - allow naughty liblscp to send non-string device parameters within
39          apostrophes as well
40        - added new LSCP commands: "GET FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>",
41          "LIST FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>" and
42          "GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO <file> <index>" for retrieving informations
43          about an arbitrary instrument file on the system where the sampler is
44          running on
45    
46    Version 0.5.0 (15 October 2007)
