0.6.2  2019-03-24  A Spring'20 release.

                   Fixed compile errors on macOS.

                   Expose actual system error codes via client interface
                   instead of just -1 whenever a syscall failed.

                   Added new client interface function:
                     lscp_client_connection_lost();
                   for checking whether client lost connection to server.

                   Fixed potential missing NULL termination of locale strings.

                   Update on newer autoconf macros (m4).

                   Fixes for building for Windows with configure and make.

                   Makefile fixes for building in separate directory.

                   Autoconf fix: AC_CONFIG_HEADER obsolete error (fixes #194).

0.5.6  2009-08-01  Fixed locale related parser bug (fixes #59).

                   Added new client interface functions, for managing
                   the global limit of maximum voices and disk streams:
                   lscp_get_voices(), lscp_set_voices(), lscp_get_streams(),
                   lscp_set_streams().

                   _lscp_device_port_info_query(): take port parameter
                   "NAME" into the result list.

                   Bugfix: _lscp_client_evt_proc() dropped LSCP events.

                   Bugfix in lscp_client_subscribe(): only the first
                   lscp_client_subscribe() call succeeded (per client),
                   all subsequent ones failed.

                   Added support for new (un)subscribable events:
                     LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_MIDI
                     LSCP_EVENT_DEVICE_MIDI
                   Caution: the bitflag approach for the event variable
                   is now abondoned, since otherwise we would soon hit the
                   limit of the bit range. The bitflag approach will
                   remain for events older at this point (that is all
                   events which occupy the lower 16 bits), but this new
                   and all following events will simply be enumared along
                   the upper 16 bits.

                   Added new client interface function, for renaming
                   effect send entities:
                     lscp_set_fxsend_name();

                   Added new client interface functions, for managing the
                   global limit of maximum voices and disk streams:
                     lscp_get_voices();
                     lscp_set_voices();
                     lscp_get_streams();
                     lscp_set_streams();

                   Bugfix: fixed buggy behavior on different locale
                   settings (e.g. when parsing floating point numbers).

0.5.5  2007-10-12  Changed client interface function, for editing
                   instrument, from:
                     lscp_edit_instrument();
                   to:
                     lscp_edit_channel_instrument();

0.5.4  2007-10-02  Added new client interface function, for editing
                   instrument:
                     lscp_edit_instrument();

                   Fixed some minor bugs in:
                     lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
                     lscp_set_fxsend_level();

0.5.3  2007-01-15  Added new client interface functions, for sampler
                   channel effect sends control:
                     lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
                     lscp_set_fxsend_level();

                   Added new field member to lscp_fxsend_info_t (level).

0.5.2  2007-01-11  Added new client interface functions, for sampler
                   channel effect sends control:
                     lscp_create_fxsend();
                     lscp_destroy_fxsend();
                     lscp_get_fxsends();
                     lscp_list_fxsends();
                     lscp_get_fxsend_info();
                     lscp_set_fxsend_audio_channel();
                   and for global volume:
                     lscp_get_volume();
                     lscp_set_volume();

                   Audio routing representation changed to integer array.

0.5.1  2006-12-22  Added support for new (un)subscribable events:
                     LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_COUNT,
                     LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_INFO,
                     LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE_COUNT,
                     LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE_INFO,
                     LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP_COUNT,
                     LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP_INFO,
                     LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_COUNT,
                     LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO.

                   Updated examples.

0.5.0  2006-12-17  MIDI instrument mapping, second round, according to
                   LSCP 1.2 draft document as of December 15, 2006.

                   New client interface functions:
                     lscp_set_channel_midi_map();
                     lscp_add_midi_instrument_map();
                     lscp_remove_midi_instrument_map();
                     lscp_get_midi_instrument_maps();
                     lscp_list_midi_instrument_maps();
                     lscp_get_midi_instrument_map_name();
                     lscp_set_midi_instrument_map_name();


0.4.2  2006-12-04  MIDI instrument mapping fixed, previously missing
                   the regular ON_DEMAND load mode.

                   Server error reporting is now effective; all server
                   numerical error and warning codes are added to 100,
                   thus giving a proper non-zero lscp_client_get_errno()
                   return value.

0.4.1  2006-11-28  Fixed the flush timeout operation to be issued only
                   once, avoiding recurrent client failure after receive
                   timeout.

                   Support for very long command result sets have been
                   introduced, with the downside of strictly obeying
                   the LSCP draft.

                   list_midi_instruments() is now being implemented.

                   LGPL text is now back in COPYING.

0.4.0  2006-11-27  As of the LSCP 1.2 working draft document, added
                   some missing client interface functions:
                     lscp_get_total_voice_count();
                     lscp_get_total_voice_count_max();
                   and for the new MIDI instrumenbt mapping features:
                     lscp_map_midi_instrument();
                     lscp_unmap_midi_instrument();
                     lscp_get_midi_instruments();
                     lscp_get_midi_instrument_info();
                     lscp_clear_midi_instruments();


0.3.4  2006-09-24  GPL address update.

0.3.3  2006-06-01  Fixed some compilation warnings due to suspicious type
                   casting and unsused header macros.

                   Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license
                   and added ldconfig to post-(un)install steps
                   to liblscp.spec (RPM).

0.3.2  2005-08-29  Fixed missing initialization bug on lscp_channel_info_t
                   new struct fields (mute/solo).

                   Include debian files into distribution.

                   Renamed configure.in to newer configure.ac.

0.3.1  2005-08-16  [bug #21] Fixed automake support for separate build
                   directory.

                   Added support to sampler channel MUTE/SOLO states:
                     lscp_set_channel_mute();
                     lscp_set_channel_solo();
                   with corresponding new lscp_channel_info_t fields.

0.3.0  2005-06-10  [bug #11] Timeout flush idiosyncrasy is now a feature;
                   this just tries to flush the receive buffer whenever
                   any previous transaction has failed due to a timeout.

                   Fixed an off-by-one timeout quirk, that has been a real
                   showstopper on Mac OS X at least, which is incidental
                   to qsampler's default timeout setting of 1000 msecs,
                   giving up systematically on select() due to "Invalid
                   argument" (EINVAL).


0.2.8  2005-05-22  More LSCP command syntax changes, particularly on the
                   event subscription ones: the LSCP_EVENT_CHANNELS event
                   definition were renamed to LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_COUNT,
                   as to be more meaningful. Added support for the newest
                   LSCP command: GET SERVER INFO; lscp_get_server_info().

0.2.8  2005-05-08  [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
                   consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
                   sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers; this has
                   affected the signature of the following functions:
                     lscp_get_available_engines();
                     lscp_get_available_audio_drivers();
                     lscp_get_available_midi_drivers();
                   which are now returning an integer count of engines
                   and drivers, respectively, while the following
                   functions are now being introduced:
                     lscp_list_available_engines();
                     lscp_list_available_audio_drivers();
                     lscp_list_available_midi_drivers();
                   taking on the previous functionality, returning
                   a comma separated list of names.

0.2.7  2005-03-10  Mini bitsy regression; a severe crash (segfault)
                   was fixed on the device configuration functions:
                     lscp_set_audio_device_param();
                     lscp_set_midi_device_param();
                     lscp_set_audio_channel_param();
                     lscp_set_midi_port_param();

0.2.6  2005-03-01  Fixed nasty off-by-one bug on internal helpers.

0.2.5  2005-02-14  Added support for the new INSTRUMENT_NAME field
                   of GET CHANNEL INFO command.

0.2.4  2004-10-11  Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() again, MIDI
                   channels should be given in the range 0-15, and omni
                   mode with the LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL symbol (16).

                   Fixed lscp_get_channel_info() to parse MIDI omni
                   (ALL) channels mode.

0.2.3  2004-09-28  Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() where MIDI
                   channels should be given in the range 1-16, and
                   omni mode with the new LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL
                   symbol (0).

                   Rearrangement on main command requester executive.

0.2.2  2004-07-29  In sync with LSCP document draf (v.12).

                   New functions added: lscp_client_get_events() and
                   lscp_reset_sampler().

                   Added support for generating Debian packages;
                   renamed pkg-config lib name 'liblscp' -> 'lscp' as
                   it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix.

0.2.1  2004-07-09  Potential cripling defects habve been fixed.

0.2.0  2004-07-06  New LSCP extension draft (v.11) initial support.
                   (still a work in progress...)


0.1.9  2004-05-18  More fixes for MSVC++ example build.

0.1.8  2004-05-17  Fix for MSVC++ example build; snprintf replaced by
                   buffer overflow friendlier sprintf.

0.1.7  2004-05-10  Missing version.h now included on install; WIN32 is
                   only now conditionally defined.

0.1.6  2004-05-04  WIN32 build support; LPGL disclaimer consistency;
                   versioning functions introduced.

0.1.5  2004-04-26  Server stuff moved into examples.

0.1.4  2004-04-24  Initial auto/libtool preparation.

75			lscp_get_voices(), lscp_set_voices(), lscp_get_streams(),
76			lscp_set_streams().
77
78			_lscp_device_port_info_query(): take port parameter
79	schoenebeck	1711	"NAME" into the result list.
80	schoenebeck	1692
81	schoenebeck	1711	Bugfix: _lscp_client_evt_proc() dropped LSCP events.
82
83	schoenebeck	1692	Bugfix in lscp_client_subscribe(): only the first
84	schoenebeck	1690	lscp_client_subscribe() call succeeded (per client),
85			all subsequent ones failed.
86
87			Added support for new (un)subscribable events:
88	schoenebeck	1689	LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_MIDI
89	schoenebeck	1697	LSCP_EVENT_DEVICE_MIDI
90	schoenebeck	1689	Caution: the bitflag approach for the event variable
91			is now abondoned, since otherwise we would soon hit the
92			limit of the bit range. The bitflag approach will
93			remain for events older at this point (that is all
94			events which occupy the lower 16 bits), but this new
95			and all following events will simply be enumared along
96			the upper 16 bits.
97
98			Added new client interface function, for renaming
99	schoenebeck	1665	effect send entities:
100			lscp_set_fxsend_name();
101
102	schoenebeck	1802	Added new client interface functions, for managing the
103			global limit of maximum voices and disk streams:
104			lscp_get_voices();
105			lscp_set_voices();
106			lscp_get_streams();
107			lscp_set_streams();
108
109	schoenebeck	1806	Bugfix: fixed buggy behavior on different locale
110			settings (e.g. when parsing floating point numbers).
111
112	capela	1412	0.5.5 2007-10-12 Changed client interface function, for editing
113			instrument, from:
114			lscp_edit_instrument();
115			to:
116			lscp_edit_channel_instrument();
117
118	capela	1368	0.5.4 2007-10-02 Added new client interface function, for editing
119	schoenebeck	1365	instrument:
120			lscp_edit_instrument();
121
122			Fixed some minor bugs in:
123			lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
124			lscp_set_fxsend_level();
125
126	capela	1031	0.5.3 2007-01-15 Added new client interface functions, for sampler
127			channel effect sends control:
128			lscp_set_fxsend_midi_controller();
129			lscp_set_fxsend_level();
130
131			Added new field member to lscp_fxsend_info_t (level).
132
133	capela	1019	0.5.2 2007-01-11 Added new client interface functions, for sampler
134			channel effect sends control:
135			lscp_create_fxsend();
136			lscp_destroy_fxsend();
137			lscp_get_fxsends();
138			lscp_list_fxsends();
139			lscp_get_fxsend_info();
140			lscp_set_fxsend_audio_channel();
141	capela	1369	and for global volume:
142	capela	1019	lscp_get_volume();
143			lscp_set_volume();
144
145	capela	1031	Audio routing representation changed to integer array.
146	capela	1020
147	capela	997	0.5.1 2006-12-22 Added support for new (un)subscribable events:
148	capela	994	LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_COUNT,
149			LSCP_EVENT_AUDIO_OUTPUT_DEVICE_INFO,
150			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE_COUNT,
151			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INPUT_DEVICE_INFO,
152			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP_COUNT,
153			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP_INFO,
154			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_COUNT,
155			LSCP_EVENT_MIDI_INSTRUMENT_INFO.
156	schoenebeck	1802
157	capela	994	Updated examples.
158	capela	983
159	capela	975	0.5.0 2006-12-17 MIDI instrument mapping, second round, according to
160			LSCP 1.2 draft document as of December 15, 2006.
161
162			New client interface functions:
163			lscp_set_channel_midi_map();
164			lscp_add_midi_instrument_map();
165			lscp_remove_midi_instrument_map();
166			lscp_get_midi_instrument_maps();
167			lscp_list_midi_instrument_maps();
168			lscp_get_midi_instrument_map_name();
169			lscp_set_midi_instrument_map_name();
170
171
172	capela	965	0.4.2 2006-12-04 MIDI instrument mapping fixed, previously missing
173	capela	963	the regular ON_DEMAND load mode.
174
175			Server error reporting is now effective; all server
176			numerical error and warning codes are added to 100,
177			thus giving a proper non-zero lscp_client_get_errno()
178			return value.
179
180	capela	948	0.4.1 2006-11-28 Fixed the flush timeout operation to be issued only
181			once, avoiding recurrent client failure after receive
182			timeout.
183
184			Support for very long command result sets have been
185			introduced, with the downside of strictly obeying
186			the LSCP draft.
187
188			list_midi_instruments() is now being implemented.
189
190			LGPL text is now back in COPYING.
191
192	capela	946	0.4.0 2006-11-27 As of the LSCP 1.2 working draft document, added
193			some missing client interface functions:
194			lscp_get_total_voice_count();
195			lscp_get_total_voice_count_max();
196			and for the new MIDI instrumenbt mapping features:
197			lscp_map_midi_instrument();
198			lscp_unmap_midi_instrument();
199			lscp_get_midi_instruments();
200			lscp_get_midi_instrument_info();
201			lscp_clear_midi_instruments();
202
203
204	capela	921	0.3.4 2006-09-24 GPL address update.
205
206	capela	869	0.3.3 2006-06-01 Fixed some compilation warnings due to suspicious type
207			casting and unsused header macros.
208
209			Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license
210			and added ldconfig to post-(un)install steps
211			to liblscp.spec (RPM).
212
213	capela	764	0.3.2 2005-08-29 Fixed missing initialization bug on lscp_channel_info_t
214	capela	749	new struct fields (mute/solo).
215
216			Include debian files into distribution.
217
218	capela	754	Renamed configure.in to newer configure.ac.
219
220	capela	735	0.3.1 2005-08-16 [bug #21] Fixed automake support for separate build
221	capela	712	directory.
222	capela	749
223	capela	735	Added support to sampler channel MUTE/SOLO states:
224			lscp_set_channel_mute();
225			lscp_set_channel_solo();
226			with corresponding new lscp_channel_info_t fields.
227	capela	712
228	capela	626	0.3.0 2005-06-10 [bug #11] Timeout flush idiosyncrasy is now a feature;
229	capela	623	this just tries to flush the receive buffer whenever
230			any previous transaction has failed due to a timeout.
231
232	capela	626	Fixed an off-by-one timeout quirk, that has been a real
233			showstopper on Mac OS X at least, which is incidental
234			to qsampler's default timeout setting of 1000 msecs,
235			giving up systematically on select() due to "Invalid
236			argument" (EINVAL).
237
238	capela	946
239	capela	562	0.2.8 2005-05-22 More LSCP command syntax changes, particularly on the
240			event subscription ones: the LSCP_EVENT_CHANNELS event
241			definition were renamed to LSCP_EVENT_CHANNEL_COUNT,
242	capela	564	as to be more meaningful. Added support for the newest
243			LSCP command: GET SERVER INFO; lscp_get_server_info().
244	capela	562
245	schoenebeck	1802	0.2.8 2005-05-08 [bug #9] Fixed for a LSCP command syntax convention
246			consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
247			sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers; this has
248	capela	523	affected the signature of the following functions:
249			lscp_get_available_engines();
250			lscp_get_available_audio_drivers();
251			lscp_get_available_midi_drivers();
252			which are now returning an integer count of engines
253	schoenebeck	1802	and drivers, respectively, while the following
254	capela	523	functions are now being introduced:
255			lscp_list_available_engines();
256			lscp_list_available_audio_drivers();
257			lscp_list_available_midi_drivers();
258			taking on the previous functionality, returning
259			a comma separated list of names.
260
261	capela	445	0.2.7 2005-03-10 Mini bitsy regression; a severe crash (segfault)
262	capela	435	was fixed on the device configuration functions:
263			lscp_set_audio_device_param();
264			lscp_set_midi_device_param();
265			lscp_set_audio_channel_param();
266			lscp_set_midi_port_param();
267	capela	419
268	capela	415	0.2.6 2005-03-01 Fixed nasty off-by-one bug on internal helpers.
269
270	capela	380	0.2.5 2005-02-14 Added support for the new INSTRUMENT_NAME field
271	capela	378	of GET CHANNEL INFO command.
272
273	capela	278	0.2.4 2004-10-11 Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() again, MIDI
274			channels should be given in the range 0-15, and omni
275			mode with the LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL symbol (16).
276	capela	415
277	capela	279	Fixed lscp_get_channel_info() to parse MIDI omni
278			(ALL) channels mode.
279	capela	278
280	capela	257	0.2.3 2004-09-28 Fixed lscp_set_channel_midi_channel() where MIDI
281			channels should be given in the range 1-16, and
282			omni mode with the new LSCP_MIDI_CHANNEL_ALL
283			symbol (0).
284	capela	415
285	capela	253	Rearrangement on main command requester executive.
286
287	capela	213	0.2.2 2004-07-29 In sync with LSCP document draf (v.12).
288
289			New functions added: lscp_client_get_events() and
290			lscp_reset_sampler().
291
292			Added support for generating Debian packages;
293	schoenebeck	199	renamed pkg-config lib name 'liblscp' -> 'lscp' as
294			it's common practice to omit the 'lib' prefix.
295
296	capela	194	0.2.1 2004-07-09 Potential cripling defects habve been fixed.
297	capela	187
298	capela	178	0.2.0 2004-07-06 New LSCP extension draft (v.11) initial support.
299	capela	103	(still a work in progress...)
300
301	capela	946
302	capela	103	0.1.9 2004-05-18 More fixes for MSVC++ example build.
303
304			0.1.8 2004-05-17 Fix for MSVC++ example build; snprintf replaced by
305			buffer overflow friendlier sprintf.
306
307			0.1.7 2004-05-10 Missing version.h now included on install; WIN32 is
308			only now conditionally defined.
309
310			0.1.6 2004-05-04 WIN32 build support; LPGL disclaimer consistency;
311			versioning functions introduced.
312
313			0.1.5 2004-04-26 Server stuff moved into examples.
314
315			0.1.4 2004-04-24 Initial auto/libtool preparation.
