75    
76    Version 4.3.0 (9 May 2021)
77    
78      * general changes:
79        - Require at least a C++11 compliant compiler.
80        - Require some UUID generating function by underlying system.
81    
82      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
83        - GIG FORMAT EXTENSION: Added attributes DimensionRegion::LFO1WaveForm,
84          DimensionRegion::LFO2WaveForm and DimensionRegion::LFO3WaveForm, which
85          allow to define override LFOs' wave form (e.g. saw or square instead of
86          the default wave form which was always sine in the original
87          Gigasampler/GigaStudio software).
88        - GIG FORMAT EXTENSION: Added attributes DimensionRegion::LFO1Phase,
89          DimensionRegion::LFO2Phase and DimensionRegion::LFO3Phase, which allow to
90          move the start point horizontally of the LFOs' waves (0° ... 360°).
91        - GIG FORMAT EXTENSION: Added attribute DimensionRegion::LFO3FlipPhase
92          (the original Gigasampler/GigaStudio software only had that flip phase
93          option for LFO1 and LFO2).
94        - Added methods DimensionRegion::UsesAnyGigFormatExtension(),
95          Region::UsesAnyGigFormatExtension(),
96          Instrument::UsesAnyGigFormatExtension() and
97          File::UsesAnyGigFormatExtension() (however only as private methods yet,
98          see comments on methods why).
99        - GIG FORMAT EXTENSION: added LinuxSampler specific filter type
100          implementations to enum vcf_type_t: vcf_type_lowpass_1p,
101          vcf_type_lowpass_2p, vcf_type_lowpass_4p, vcf_type_lowpass_6p,
102          vcf_type_highpass_1p, vcf_type_highpass_2p, vcf_type_highpass_4p,
103          vcf_type_highpass_6p, vcf_type_bandpass_2p, vcf_type_bandreject_2p.
104        - Compatibility fix: GigaStudio always expects 128 '3gnm' RIFF chunks
105          (patch by Ivan Maguidhir).
106        - Compatibility fix: GigaStudio 3 expects '3dnm' and '3ddp' RIFF chunks
107          (original patch by Ivan Maguidhir).
108        - Region::DeleteDimensionZone() and Region::SplitDimensionZone(): Fixed
109          dimensions being in different order after deleting a dimension zone.
110        - Script: Generate a persistent UUID for each script.
111        - GIG FORMAT EXTENSION: Added support for script 'patch' variables and
112          accordingly added new methods to Instrument class:
113          IsScriptPatchVariableSet(), GetScriptPatchVariables(),
114          GetScriptPatchVariable(), SetScriptPatchVariable(),
115          UnsetScriptPatchVariable(); stored persistently as new 'SCPV' RIFF chunk
116          as child of our '3LS ' list chunk on Instrument level.
117        - Fixed undefined behaviour when modifying script slots on an instrument
118          that had been cloned and not been saved yet (e.g. unintended modification
119          of original instrument's script slots, and crash on Instrument destruction
120          due to double free of pScriptRefs).
121    
122      * src/Serialization.cpp, src/Serialization.h:
123        - Fixed broken Archive(RawData) constructor which always threw an
124          Exception.
125        - Added built-in support for C++ String objects (a.k.a. std::string
126          from the STL) and bumped Srx format version to 1.1 for that reason.
127        - Fixed assertion fault on some systems if a member variable defined was
128          serialized which was declared as size_t or ssize_t data type.
129        - Added new method Archive::operation() which allows applications to
130          distinguish between serialization vs. deserialization in their
131          serialize() method implementations.
132        - Added built-in support for C++ Array<> objects (a.k.a. std::vector from
133          the STL).
134        - Member offsets are now signed and for (newly added support of) member
135          variables on the heap -1 is always used as offset instead.
136        - Added built-in support for C++ Set<> objects (a.k.a. std::set from the
137          STL).
138        - DataType: Added optional 2nd custom type name.
139        - Added built-in support for C++ Map<> objects (a.k.a. std::map from the
140          STL).
141    
142      * src/helper.h:
143        - Fix compile error with GCC 9 due to ignored result value of vasprintf()
144          function call.
145    
146      * src/tools/gigdump.cpp:
147        - Print dimension region properties LFO1WaveForm, LFO2WaveForm,
148          LFO3WaveForm, LFO1Phase, LFO2Phase, LFO3Phase, LFO1FlipPhase,
149          LFO2FlipPhase and LFO3FlipPhase.
150    
151    Version 4.2.0 (25 Jul 2019)
152    
153      * general changes:
154        - Added MSVC build support (anonymous patch from mailing list).
155        - Introduced CMake build support (yet constrained for building with MSVC)
156          (anonymous patch from mailing list).
157        - Fix: Don't automatically delete RIFF chunks from DLS/gig classes'
158          destructors. Added new virtual method DeleteChunks() to those classes
159          for this which must be explicitly called instead to remove their RIFF
160          chunks.
161        - Fix: Many methods of DLS/gig classes assumed a RIFF chunk read position
162          of zero; which is unsafe per se.
163        - Added C++11 "override" keyword where appropriate.
164        - Fixed crash in RIFF, DLS and gig classes which occurred on certain
165          of their actions when not passing a progress_t callback structure.
166    
167      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
168        - Fixed Doxygen API comments for enum types (currently latest Doxygen
169          [v1.8.13] only supports C comments in macro arguments expansion, but
170          not C++ comments; see <FindDefineArgs> lexer rules in src/pre.l of
171          the Doxygen source code, which currently also filter out new line
172          \n chars).
173        - Added new method File::CountSamples().
174        - Added new method File::CountInstruments().
175        - Fixed gig v4 files falsely being handled as v2 format
176          (patch by Ivan Maguidhir).
177        - Added gig v4 version identifier (File::VERSION_4).
178        - GIG FORMAT EXTENSION: Added attribute
179          DimensionRegion::SustainReleaseTrigger which allows to define whether
180          a sustain pedal up event shall cause a release trigger sample to be
181          played (default: don't play release trigger sample by sustain pedal).
182        - GIG FORMAT EXTENSION: Added attribute
183          DimensionRegion::NoNoteOffReleaseTrigger which allows to disable the
184          regular behaviour of playing release trigger sample on MIDI note-off
185          events.
186        - Introduced support for writing extension files (.gx01, .gx02, ...)
187          (original patch by Ivan Maguidhir).
188        - Many gig classes derive now from DLS::Storage (see DLS changes below).
189        - Added File::GetRiffFile() method.
190    
191      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
192        - File: Fixed implicitly allocated RIFF::File object never been freed.
193        - Added new abstract interface base class DLS::Storage which is derived by
194          the respective classes for implementing (the old) UpdateChunks() and the
195          new DeleteChunks() method.
196        - Added File::GetRiffFile() method.
197    
198      * src/sf2.cpp, src/sf2.h:
199        - Added Sample::GetFile() method.
200        - Added File::GetRiffFile() method.
201    
202      * src/Serialization.cpp, src/Serialization.h:
203        - Hide pure internal declarations from header file to avoid numerous
204          compiler warnings when building and linking against the public API.
205        - Fixed comparision logic bug
206        - Fixed memory leak in DataType::customTypeName().
207    
208      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
209        - Fix: Calling File::SetMode() left an undefined file handle on Windows and
210          caused a resource leak
211        - Avoid compiler warning when building for 32 bit windows.
212        - Added new method progress_t::subdivide().
213        - Fix: API doc comment for Chunk::GetFilePos() was completely wrong.
214        - progress_t: Added a 2nd (overridden) progress_t::subdivide() method which
215          allows a more fine graded control into which portions the subtasks are
216          divided to.
217    
218      * src/tools/gigdump.cpp:
219        - Added command line option --instrument-names which causes only
220          instrument names and their index numbers to be printed.
221    
222    Version 4.1.0 (25 Nov 2017)
223      * general changes:
224        - removed 2 GB limitation when loading a gig or DLS file
225        - using now native integer size where appropriate
226        - fixed minor issues with man pages (patch by Debian maintainer)
227        - fixed various spelling mistakes (patch by Debian maintainer)
228        - Added new "Serialization" framework (and equally named namespace)
229          which allows to serialize and deserialize native C++ objects
230          in a portable, easy and flexible way.
231        - print compiler warning if no RTTI available
232        - Fixed potential crash in command line tools gig2stereo, korg2gig,
233          korgdump and sf2extract.
234        - Fixed CVE-2017-12950, CVE-2017-12952, CVE-2017-12953
235          (original patch by Paul Brossier, slightly modified).
236        - Debian: Fixed packaging error about invalid substitution variable
237          "Source-Version".
238        - Raised Debian compatibility level to Debian 9 "Stretch".
239    
240      * src/gig.cpp, src/gig.h:
241        - fixed bug in Script::SetGroup: the script chunk wasn't moved
242        - fixed compilation error with clang 3.4
243        - GIG FORMAT EXTENSION: added support for saving gig file larger than 4 GB
244          as one single monolithic gig file. In case .gig file is >= 2GB expect a
245          large monolithic file, otherwise if .gig file is < 2 GB check for
246          "extension" files (.gx01, .gx02, ...) instead.
247        - fixed Region::UpdateUpdateVelocityTable() which did not work correctly
248          if there were dimensions after the velocity dimension: it only created
249          valid velocity tables for cases of dimensions lower than the velocity
250          dimension.
251        - added new method Sample::VerifyWaveData() which allows to check whether
252          a sample had been damaged for some reason
253        - Fix: samples' CRC checksums were damaged on file structure changes.
254        - Fix: samples' CRC checksums were misordered when a Sample was deleted.
255        - Added new method Sample::GetWaveDataCRC32Checksum().
256        - Changed default value of EG2Release (filter release time) to 60s.
257        - Instruments' default pitch bend range is now +-2 semi tones.
258        - Fixed CRC checksums being wrong sometimes.
259        - Fix: method File::AddContentOf() did not clone script groups and scripts
260          of passed original file.
261        - Added support for serializing & deserializing DimensionRegion
262          objects (and crossfade_t and leverage_ctrl_t objects).
263        - Added enum reflection API functions for retrieving enum declaration type
264          information at runtime (enumCount(), enumKey(), enumKeys(), enumValue()).
265        - Exception class now has a variadic constructor which allows to add
266          textual format specifiers like with printf().
267        - On unknown leverage controller exception: show precise unknown leverage
268          controller number found.
269        - Ignore invalid leverage controller types and just show a warning on the
270          console instead of throwing an exception.
271        - Added new struct eg_opt_t and new class member variable
272          DimensionRegion::EG1Options and DimensionRegion::EG2Options as an
273          extension to the gig file format, which allows to override the default
274          behavior of the first two EGs' state machines.
275        - Fixed undefined behavior when loading a gig file with invalid
276          velocity curve parameters (fixes CVE-2017-12951).
277        - Fixed undefined behavior when loading a gig file with invalid wave
278          pool index number (fixes CVE-2017-12954).
279    
280      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
281        - Sample: wave pool offsets are now 64 bits (to allow support for files
282          larger than 4 GB).
283        - Exception class now has a variadic constructor which allows to add
284          textual format specifiers like with printf().
285    
286      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:
287        - added support for RIFF files larger than 4 GB, by default the required
288          internal RIFF file offset size is automatically detected (that is RIFF
289          files < 4 GB automatically use 32 bit offsets while files >= 4 GB
290          automatically use 64 bit offsets), a particular offset size can be forced
291          with a new option added to the RIFF File constructor though
292        - when saving a modified, grown RIFF file, the temporary file size during
293          Save() operation will no longer be larger than the final grown file size
294        - Exception class now has a variadic constructor which allows to add
295          textual format specifiers like with printf().
296    
297      * src/Serialization.cpp, src/Serialization.h:
298        - Archive: Added method isModified().
299        - Archive: Added method setAutoValue().
300        - Archive: Added method setIntValue().
301        - Archive: Added method setRealValue().
302        - Archive: Added method setBoolValue().
303        - Archive: Added method setEnumValue().
304        - Archive: Added method valueAsString().
305        - Archive::rawData(): Automatically re-encode new raw data stream if
306          archive had been modified (i.e. by remove(), setAutoValue(), etc.).
307        - Object: Added method memberByUID().
308        - Object: remove() method is now protected.
309        - Archive: Added method removeMember().
310        - Archive: Added methods name() and setName().
311        - Archive: Added methods comment() and setComment().
312        - Archive: Added methods timeStampCreated(), timeStampModified(),
313          dateTimeCreated() and dateTimeModified().
314        - Archive: Added methods valueAsInt(), valueAsReal() and valueAsBool().
315        - DataType: Implemented demangling C++ type names (for methods
316          asLongDescr() and customTypeName(bool demangle=false)).
317        - Archive::setAutoValue(): Handle human readable boolean text
318          representations like "yes", "no", "true", "false" as expected.
319        - Exception class now has a variadic constructor which allows to add
320          textual format specifiers like with printf().
321        - DataType fix: Retain backward compatibility to older versions of native
322          C++ classes/structs.
323    
324      * src/Akai.cpp:
325        - Fixed compilation error with recent, more strict compilers.
326    
327      * src/tools/akaidump.cpp, src/tools/akaiextract.cpp:
328        - improved output of non-ascii characters in usage messages
329        - fixed printf format strings
330    
331      * src/tools/korg2gig.cpp:
332        - fixed c++11 narrowing warnings
333        - fixed fine tuning which was not translated at all
334    
335      * src/tools/gigdump.cpp:
336        - additionally print VelocityUpperLimit and DimensionUpperLimits of all
337          dimension regions
338        - additionally print RIFF chunk file offset and RIFF chunk size of sample
339          data
340        - added and implemented new parameter "--verify" which allows to check
341          the raw wave form data integrity of all samples
342        - added and implemented new parameter "--rebuild-checksums" which allows
343          to recalculate the CRC32 checksum of all samples' raw wave data and
344          rebuilding the gig file's global checksum table (i.e. in case the
345          file's checksum table was damaged)
346        - print samples' CRC32 checksums
347        - Print the new EG behavior options (eg_opt_t).
348    
349      * src/tools/gigextract.cpp:
350        - Fix: if sample name contains a path separator (slash or backslash) then
351          replace them by a minus sign to avoid file system issues.
352    
353      * src/tools/gig2stereo.cpp:
354        - Also merge mono sample pairs with non matching loop information if
355          argument --incompatible was given.
356    
357      * packaging changes:
358        - Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
359          auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
360

395      * AKAI file format:
396        - Added Linux/POSIX ported version of libakai. Note that libakai is released
397          under LGPL terms while libgig is released under GPL terms. To handle this
398          license difference appropriately the AKAI support part is built as
399          separate DLL (.so file).

401          any exotic third party libraries.
402        - Fixed various compilation errors for Windows.
403        - POSIX fix: open() requires third (mode) argument if used with O_CREAT
404          (fixes #219).
405    
406      * src/gig.cpp:
407        - bugfix: VCF velocity dynamic range and VCF velocity curve
408          weren't saved correctly

437          (chunks at wrong location in the RIFF tree).
438        - Added new method Instrument::MoveTo() which allows to rearrange the order
439          of instruments within the same gig file.
440    
441      * src/DLS.cpp, src/DLS.h:
442        - added new method File::GetFileName()

464        - added new method File::IsNew()
465        - added support for loading RIFF-like files with a bit different layout
466          than "real" RIFF files (used for KORG format support)
467        - added new method Chunk::GetFile()
468        - added new method Chunk::GetLayout()
469        - added 2nd, alternative method for List::MoveSubChunk(), the old 1st one

478    
479      * src/gigextract.cpp:

509          decreased sometimes also made the file corrupt!
510        - bugfix: undefined behavior (e.g. endless loop) when opening zero
511          length files, now throws a RIFF::Exception instead (fixes bug #121)
512        - bugfix: destructor for base class RIFF::Chunk accessed members
513          of derived class RIFF::File, which is bad, and caused crashes
514          when using Visual C++
515        - bugfix: files that contain zero length RIFF lists were not read
516          correctly (fixes #127) (bug was introduced 2009-03-13)
517    
518    Version 3.2.1 (5 Dec 2007)
519    
520      * src/RIFF.cpp, src/RIFF.h:

574        - write support: DLSID is now generated on the file and the
575          instruments
576        - write support: improved the default values for dimension region
577          parameters

616          velocity (gig v3 feature)
617        - added "smart midi" and "round robin keyboard" dimensions
618        - added new method File::DeleteGroupOnly() which only deletes the given
619          group but moves all its members to another group, the other method,
620          that is File::DeleteGroup() now removes not just the group, but also
621          all the samples that belong to that group
622        - fixed crash which occured on interfering File::DeleteSample() and

658          instead of the wave chunk
659        - keyswitching dimension is changed from split type "normal" to
660          "bit"
661        - real support for 24 bit samples - samples are not truncated to
