7    GIT HEAD
8    
9    - Dropped the --enable-qt5 from configure as found redundant
10      given that's the build default anyway (suggestion by Guido
11      Scholz, while for Qtractor, thanks).
12    
13    * Automake: set environment variable GCC_COLORS=auto to allow GCC to
14      auto detect whether it (sh/c)ould output its messages in color.
15    
16    
17    0.4.0  2016-04-05  Spring'16 release frenzy.
18    
19    * Added application keywords to freedesktop.org's AppData.
20    
21    * Prevent x11extras module from use on non-X11/Unix plaforms.
22    
23    * Messages standard output capture has been improved again, now
24      in both ways a non-blocking pipe may get.
25    
26    * Single/unique application instance control adapted to Qt5/X11.
27    
28    
29    0.3.1  2015-07-19  Summer'15 release frenzy.
30    
31    * Fixed configure script's Qt include directory lookup for some
32      64bit Linux flavours.
33    
34    * Prefer Qt5 over Qt4 by default with configure script.
35    
36    * A new top-level widget window geometry state save and restore
37      sub-routine is now in effect. (EXPERIMENTAL)
38    
39    * Fixed for some strict tests for Qt4 vs. Qt5 configure builds.
40    
41    
42    0.3.0  2015-03-25  Pre-LAC2015 release frenzy.
43    
44    * Added application description as freedesktop.org's AppData.
45    
46    * Added this "Don't ask/show this again" option to some if not most
47      of the nagging warning/error message boxes.
48    
49    * Mac OS X: Fixed default path of linuxsampler binary.
50    
51    * When closing qsampler and showing the user the dialog whether to
52      stop the LinuxSampler backend, set the default selection to "Yes".
53    
54    * Master volume slider now getting proper layout when changing its
55      main toolbar orientation.
56    
57    * Messages standard output capture has been slightly improved
58      as for non-blocking i/o, whenever available.
59    
60    * Adjusted configure check for libgig to detect the new --includedir.
61

65    * Translations install directory change.
66    
67    * Added support for SF2 instrument names/preset enumeration.
68    
69    * Added instrument list popup on channel strip which shows up when

71      instruments of the same file.
72    
73    * Adjusted configure check for libgig to detect its new --libdir
74      (impolitely forcing the user now to have at least libgig 3.3.0).
75    
76    
77    0.2.3  2013-12-31  A fifth of a Jubilee.
78    
79    * Allow the build system to include an user specified LDFLAGS.

89    
90    * Make(ing) -jN parallel builds now available for the masses.

104      and make.
105    
106    * libX11 is now being added explicitly to the build link phase,
107      as seen necessary on some bleeding-edge distros eg. Fedora 13,
108      Debian 6.
109    
110    * Moving from old deprecated Qt3'ish custom event post handling
111      into regular asynchronous signal/slot strategy.
112    
113    * Sampler channel and instrument file requester support for
114      other than GIG engine instrument files (*gig; *.dls) has
115      been added, making roads for the newer SFZ and SF2 engines
116      instrument files (*.sfz; *.sf2).
117    
118    * General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place.
119    
120    * Initial widget geometry and visibility persistence logic has
121      been slightly revised as much to avoid crash failures due to

123    
124    * General source tree layout and build configuration change.
125    
126    * Automatic crash-dump reports, debugger stack-traces (gdb), back-
127      traces, whatever, are being introduced as a brand new configure
128      option (--enable-stacktrace) and default enabled on debug build
129      targets (--enable-debug).
130    
131    * Attempt to fix broken instrument list model/view on Qt >= 4.6.
132    
133    * Device parameter spin-box default maximum has been set higher:
134      now at a magic 24-bit limit (16777216) instead of older 16-bit
135      (65536), possibly fixing bug #136.
136    
137    * LADISH Level 1 support has been added: SIGUSR1 signal trap
138      just makes it a shortcut to File/Save.
139    
140    * MIDI Device Status menu is disabled when no MIDI device exists;
141      a menu separator has been added.
142    
143    * Window manager's close button was found missing from the Devices
144      and Instruments widgets when on Qt >= 4.5, now fixed.
145    
146    * MIDI activity indicator on channel strips and MIDI device status
147      widgets is now implemented as a flashing green LED, instead of a
148      lame green solid background :).
149    
150    * Global configuration state is now explicitly saved/committed to
151      disk when View/Options... dialog changes are accepted and applied.
152    
153    * Czech (cs) translation added (by Pavel Fric).
154    
155    
156    0.2.2  2009-08-01  New release cycle.
157    
158    * Russian (qsampler_ru.ts by Alexandre Prokoudine) makes it as
159      brand first translation delivered. Thanks and welcomes whom
160      ever may follow ;)
161    
162    * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
163    
164    * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
165      (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
166      settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
167      automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
168      a sampler the next time.
169    
170    * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
171    
172    * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
173    
174    * Due to some trouble with newer Qt >= 4.4 applications regarding
175      font size configuration, a new global user option is now available
176      to the rescue: View/Options... /Display/Other/Base font size
177      (default none).
178    
179    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
180      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.
181      (transaction by Guido Scholz, while on qsynth-devel, thanks).
182    
183    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
184      running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
185      iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
186      main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
187    
188    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
189      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
190    
191    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
192      screwed.
193    
194    * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed
195      e.g. by other frontends.
196    
197    * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
198      e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
199      (fixes segfault on device changes)
200    
201    * Implemented MIDI device activity windows, selectable from the
202      "View" main menu.
203    
204    * Implemented MIDI activity indicator on channel strips.
205    
206    * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.
207    
208    * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel
209      strip, particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
210    
211    * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user
212      decide whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
213    
214    
215    0.2.1  2007-12-06  Qt4 migration was complete.
216    
217    * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument
218      names in avery fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then
219      the respective name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by
220      default.
221    
222    * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
223      evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
224    
225    * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
226      the main menu and toobar are not visible.
227    
228    * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
229      creating a new sampler channel.
230    
231    * README requirements and configuration notes update.
232    
233    * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
234      form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
235      users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
236      first time).
237    
238    * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
239      which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
240    
241    * Added Windows file path support.
242    
243    * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
244      under win32.
245    
246    * Qt4 port of the application.
247    
248    
249    0.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
250    
251    * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
252      mapping instrument files with special characters in their
253      filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
254      and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
255    
256    * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
257      does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
258      instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
259      tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
260    
261    * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
262      application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
263      spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
264    
265    * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
266    
267    
268    0.1.4  2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
269    
270    * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
271      cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
272      highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
273    
274  * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.  * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
