      gig files)
    - loading DLS and gig files is now much more permissive, DLS and gig

    - added write support (highly experimental)

  * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
    - added write support
    - Chunk::LoadChunkData() can now be called again to resize the buffer

      (patch by Andreas Persson)
    - added some file format compatibility checks
    - fixed vcf_type_lowpassturbo value (vcf_type_lowpassturbo was actually

      RPM and Debian packages)

  * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
    - fixed / improved accuracy of all three velocity to volume
      transformation functions a.k.a. 'nonlinear','linear','special'
      (patch by Andreas Persson)
    - denormals are filtered from the velocity to volume tables
    - bugfix for dimension region switching (wrong handling of the release
      trigger dimension, no bit range check for dimensions of split type
      'split_type_bit')
    - fixed panorama value in DimensionRegion (invalid conversion from
      signed 7 bit to signed 8 bit)
    - added class attribute 'Layers' to class 'gig::Region'
    - symbol prototyping of gig::Region (fixes build failure with qsampler)

Version 0.7.1 (2 Jul 2004)

  * packaging changes:

      Redhat packages
    - header files included on installation.
    - autotools-generated files removed from CVS repository.
    - added support for generating Debian packages
    - version of shared library can be set in configure.in

Version 0.7.0 (3 May 2004)

  * general changes:
    - various big endian specific corrections
      (successfully tested now on PPC)
    - minor adjustments to avoid compile errors on some systems
      (using now pow() instead of powl() and --pedantic g++ compiler switch)
    - libtoolized the library
    - added man pages for the command line tools
      (gigextract, gigdump, dlsdump, rifftree)

  * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
    - fixed bug in decompression algorithm which caused it not to detect
      the end of a stream
    - added method GetVelocityAttenuation() to class 'DimensionRegion' which
      takes the MIDI key velocity value as an argument and returns the
      appropriate volume factor (0.0 ... 1.0) for the sample to be played
      back, the velocity curve transformation functions used for this are
      only an approximation so far
    - fixed class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart', 'Sample::LoopEnd' and
      'Sample::LoopSize' which reflected wrong values
    - class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart' and 'Sample::LoopEnd' are now
      measured in sample points instead of byte offset
    - renamed misleading attribute name 'Sample::MIDIPitchFraction' to
      'Sample::FineTune'
    - added class attribute 'Sample::LoopSize'
    - added method GetInstrument(uint index) to class 'File'
    - added ReadAndLoop() method to class 'Sample' which is an extension to
      the normal Read() method to honor the sample's looping information
      while streaming from disk
    - changed interface for 'attenuation_ctrl_t', 'eg1_ctrl_t' and
      'eg2_ctrl_t': replaced this huge enumeration by a structure which
      reflects the MIDI controller number in case of an ordinary control
      change controller (this saves a huge switch-case block in the
      application of the library user)
    - renamed following attributes in class 'DimensionRegion':
      'AttenuationContol' -> 'AttenuationController',
      'InvertAttenuationControl' -> 'InvertAttenuationController',
      'AttenuationControlTreshold' -> 'AttenuationControllerThreshold'
    - minor fix in API documentation for method GetVelocityAttenuation() in
      class 'DimensionRegion'

  * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
    - added additional API documentation
    - minor fix in Chunk::Read() method (only a minor efficiency issue)

  * src/gigdump.cpp:
    - added printout of samples' looping informations

232			* packaging changes:
233			- renamed 'libgig.pc.in' -> 'gig.pc.in' and renamed pkg-config lib name
234			'libgig' -> 'gig' as it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix

236			SuSE and Fedora)
237			- fixed generation of Doxygen API documentation (now also included in

239	schoenebeck	196
240	schoenebeck	231	* src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
241			- fixed / improved accuracy of all three velocity to volume
242	schoenebeck	315	transformation functions a.k.a. 'nonlinear','linear','special'
243			(patch by Andreas Persson)
244	schoenebeck	231	- denormals are filtered from the velocity to volume tables
245	schoenebeck	241	- bugfix for dimension region switching (wrong handling of the release
246			trigger dimension, no bit range check for dimensions of split type
247			'split_type_bit')
248	schoenebeck	269	- fixed panorama value in DimensionRegion (invalid conversion from
249			signed 7 bit to signed 8 bit)
250	schoenebeck	282	- added class attribute 'Layers' to class 'gig::Region'
251	schoenebeck	315	- symbol prototyping of gig::Region (fixes build failure with qsampler)
252	schoenebeck	231
253	schoenebeck	220	* src/gigextract.cpp:
254			- added support for libsndfile (if libaudiofile and libsndfile are
255			available then libsndfile is preferred)
256
257	schoenebeck	229	* src/gigdump.cpp:
258			- added printout for dimension informations (amount, type, bits, zones)
259	schoenebeck	231	- added printout for velocity response curve parameters
260	schoenebeck	235	- added printout for crossfade definitions
261	schoenebeck	269	- added printout for panorama value for each DimensionRegion
262	schoenebeck	282	- replaced printout of DLS Region layer by printout of amount of
263			Gigasampler layers
264	schoenebeck	229
265	capela	168	Version 0.7.1 (2 Jul 2004)
266
267			* packaging changes:
268	schoenebeck	192	- added libgig.spec and libgig.pc package configurations for generating
269			Redhat packages
270	capela	168	- header files included on installation.
271			- autotools-generated files removed from CVS repository.
272	schoenebeck	186	- added support for generating Debian packages
273			- version of shared library can be set in configure.in
274
275	schoenebeck	58	Version 0.7.0 (3 May 2004)
276
277			* general changes:
278			- various big endian specific corrections
279			(successfully tested now on PPC)
280			- minor adjustments to avoid compile errors on some systems
281			(using now pow() instead of powl() and --pedantic g++ compiler switch)
282			- libtoolized the library
283			- added man pages for the command line tools
284			(gigextract, gigdump, dlsdump, rifftree)
285
286			* src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
287			- fixed bug in decompression algorithm which caused it not to detect
288			the end of a stream
289			- added method GetVelocityAttenuation() to class 'DimensionRegion' which
290			takes the MIDI key velocity value as an argument and returns the
291			appropriate volume factor (0.0 ... 1.0) for the sample to be played
292			back, the velocity curve transformation functions used for this are
293			only an approximation so far
294			- fixed class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart', 'Sample::LoopEnd' and
295			'Sample::LoopSize' which reflected wrong values
296			- class attributes 'Sample::LoopStart' and 'Sample::LoopEnd' are now
297			measured in sample points instead of byte offset
298			- renamed misleading attribute name 'Sample::MIDIPitchFraction' to
299			'Sample::FineTune'
300			- added class attribute 'Sample::LoopSize'
301			- added method GetInstrument(uint index) to class 'File'
302			- added ReadAndLoop() method to class 'Sample' which is an extension to
303			the normal Read() method to honor the sample's looping information
304			while streaming from disk
305			- changed interface for 'attenuation_ctrl_t', 'eg1_ctrl_t' and
306			'eg2_ctrl_t': replaced this huge enumeration by a structure which
307			reflects the MIDI controller number in case of an ordinary control
308			change controller (this saves a huge switch-case block in the
309			application of the library user)
310			- renamed following attributes in class 'DimensionRegion':
311			'AttenuationContol' -> 'AttenuationController',
312			'InvertAttenuationControl' -> 'InvertAttenuationController',
313			'AttenuationControlTreshold' -> 'AttenuationControllerThreshold'
314			- minor fix in API documentation for method GetVelocityAttenuation() in
315			class 'DimensionRegion'
316
317			* src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
318			- added additional API documentation
319			- minor fix in Chunk::Read() method (only a minor efficiency issue)
320
321			* src/gigdump.cpp:
322			- added printout of samples' looping informations
323
324	schoenebeck	11	Version 0.6.0 (3 Nov 2003)
325
326			* initial release
