139        - work-around for missing fnmatch function on Windows to make
140          instrument database compilable
141        - added instrument database support on Windows
142          works with both standalone mode and VST plugin.
143          the instruments DB file is located in
144          %USERPROFILE%\.linuxsampler\instruments.db which allows different
145          databases for each windows user
146          if no DB is present it automatically creates the .linuxsampler subdir
147          and then creates an empty DB
148        - fixed recursive import, which was broken on Windows

177          un-cache the respective sample if it's really not used by any
178          sampler engine anymore
179        - re-cache samples in case they were changed by an instrument editor,
180          e.g. when a sample was added while playing (#82)
181        - fixed hanging notes which occured when note-off event had the exact
182          same time stamp as the voice's note-on event and occured both in the
183          same audio fragment cycle (fixes bug #112)
184        - added support for the "fine tune" and "pitch bend range"
185          instrument-level gig parameters
186        - fixed minor artifacts in pitch bend handling
187        - added support for GS Reset SysEx message
188        - allow gig files to use unlimited downward pitch shifting
189        - added a limit check for upward pitch shifting

213          be triggered respectively
214        - added new LSCP command "SET STREAMS" to globally alter the maximum
215          amount of disk streams, added new LSCP event "GLOBAL_INFO:STREAMS"
216          which will be triggered respectively
217        - bugfix: retry if "select" returns EINTR (this fixes a crash when
218          a gigedit file dialog is opened)
219        - close all connections when LSCPServer is deleted
220        - hard close of all sockets on exit

230          instrument with PERSISTENT load mode
231        - fixed possible iterator invalidations when resetting the sampler

233          GET AUDIO_OUTPUT_DRIVER INFO

236          GET MIDI_INPUT_DRIVER_PARAMETER INFO
237        - fixed possible compilation error when sqlite is not present
238        - fixed orphaned pointers when setting maximum voices limit (bug #118)
