1  Version CVS HEAD (?)  Version CVS HEAD (?)
2    
3      * general changes:
4        - bugfix: on some POSIX systems instrument editor plugins refused to
5          load as we used a non-portable Linux specific struct field
6          (fixes bug #70, patch by Ronald Baljeu)
7        - fixed endless loop which occured when loading an instrument editor
8          plugin DLL on Windows systems failed
9    
10      * audio driver:
11        - removed the nonsense audio channel constraint (which was hard coded to
12          max. 100 audio channels) for most audio drivers
13        - JACK audio driver did not offer a device parameter "SAMPLERATE" as
14          opposed to the LSCP specs
15        - bugfix: the SAMPLERATE parameter of some drivers (e.g. JACK)
16          reflected the wrong value
17    
18      * instruments database:
19        - avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments
20          to the instruments database
21    
22    Version 0.5.1 (6 December 2007)
23    
24      * packaging changes:
25        - added autoconf checks for pthread library
26        - added autoconf check for pthread bug found on certain NPTL-enabled
27          glibc versions (see Gentoo bug report #194076)
28        - added autoconf checks for MS Windows
29    
30      * general changes:
31        - bugfix: the thread used by an editor plugin didn't die when the
32          editor closed
33        - bugfix: Ringbuffer.h: fill_write_space_with_null() did not zero
34          out all the space. operator--() did not apply size_mask after
35          decrementing the read_ptr. DEFAULT_WRAP_ELEMENTS set to 0 in
36          order to avoid problems with the _NonVolatileReader functions.
37        - bugfix: Stream.h: added a missing divide by BytesPerSample in
38          GetWriteSpace(). Since this function is currently only used in
39          the stream's qsort() compare function, it didn't trigger any
40          bugs.
41        - Resampler.h, Synthesizer.h: cubic interpolation now works in
42          24bit mode too. Faster method to read 24bit words on little
43          endian machines (x86): replaced 3 byte reads + shifts with a 1
44          unaligned 32bit read and shift
45        - experimental support for MS Windows (MIDI input via MME, AUDIO
46          output via ASIO)
47        - made handling of SIGINT signal (Ctrl-C) a bit more robust
48        - support for monitoring the total number of active disk streams
49          (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT,
50          SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT)
51    
52      * AUDIO driver:
53        - added Windows ASIO low latency audio driver
54    
55      * MIDI driver:
56        - added MME Windows MIDI driver
57    
58      * LSCP server:
59        - added support for Windows style path / filenames, however with
60          forward slash path separators instead of backslash
61          (i.e. "C:/foo/bar.gig")
62        - allow naughty liblscp to send non-string device parameters within
63          apostrophes as well
64        - added new LSCP commands: "GET FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>",
65          "LIST FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>" and
66          "GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO <file> <index>" for retrieving informations
67          about an arbitrary instrument file on the system where the sampler is
68          running on
