3    * packaging changes:    * packaging changes:
4        - autoconf bugfix: the PKG_CONFIG variable wasn't initialized properly,
5          causing e.g. the libgig test to fail when
6          "./configure --disable-jack-driver" was used
7          (patch by Alexis Ballier)
8    
9      * general changes:
10        - bugfix: on some POSIX systems instrument editor plugins refused to
11          load as we used a non-portable Linux specific struct field
12          (fixes bug #70, patch by Ronald Baljeu)
13        - fixed endless loop which occured when loading an instrument editor
14          plugin DLL on Windows systems failed
15    
16      * audio driver:
17        - removed the nonsense audio channel constraint (which was hard coded to
18          max. 100 audio channels) for most audio drivers
19        - JACK audio driver did not offer a device parameter "SAMPLERATE" as
20          opposed to the LSCP specs
21        - bugfix: the SAMPLERATE parameter of some drivers (e.g. JACK)
22          reflected the wrong value
23    
24      * instruments database:
25        - avoid time consuming samples scanning when adding instruments
26          to the instruments database
27    
28    Version 0.5.1 (6 December 2007)
29    
30      * packaging changes:
31        - added autoconf checks for pthread library
32        - added autoconf check for pthread bug found on certain NPTL-enabled
33          glibc versions (see Gentoo bug report #194076)
34        - added autoconf checks for MS Windows
35    
36      * general changes:
37        - bugfix: the thread used by an editor plugin didn't die when the
38          editor closed
39        - bugfix: Ringbuffer.h: fill_write_space_with_null() did not zero
40          out all the space. operator--() did not apply size_mask after
41          decrementing the read_ptr. DEFAULT_WRAP_ELEMENTS set to 0 in
42          order to avoid problems with the _NonVolatileReader functions.
43        - bugfix: Stream.h: added a missing divide by BytesPerSample in
44          GetWriteSpace(). Since this function is currently only used in
45          the stream's qsort() compare function, it didn't trigger any
46          bugs.
47        - Resampler.h, Synthesizer.h: cubic interpolation now works in
48          24bit mode too. Faster method to read 24bit words on little
49          endian machines (x86): replaced 3 byte reads + shifts with a 1
50          unaligned 32bit read and shift
51        - experimental support for MS Windows (MIDI input via MME, AUDIO
52          output via ASIO)
53        - made handling of SIGINT signal (Ctrl-C) a bit more robust
54        - support for monitoring the total number of active disk streams
55          (new LSCP commands: GET TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT,
56          SUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT, UNSUBSCRIBE TOTAL_STREAM_COUNT)
57    
58      * AUDIO driver:
59        - added Windows ASIO low latency audio driver
60    
61      * MIDI driver:
62        - added MME Windows MIDI driver
63    
64      * LSCP server:
65        - added support for Windows style path / filenames, however with
66          forward slash path separators instead of backslash
67          (i.e. "C:/foo/bar.gig")
68        - allow naughty liblscp to send non-string device parameters within
69          apostrophes as well
70        - added new LSCP commands: "GET FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>",
71          "LIST FILE INSTRUMENTS <file>" and
72          "GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO <file> <index>" for retrieving informations
73          about an arbitrary instrument file on the system where the sampler is
74          running on
75    
76    Version 0.5.0 (15 October 2007)
