libtimidity new stable version 0.2.1

libtimidity-0.2.1 is released: This is a stable maintenance release
after the previous v0.2.0, upgrading is encouraged. Download:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/libtimidity/files/libtimidity/0.2.1/
ChangeLog:

  • new --with-timidty-cfg=FILE configury option to specify the full path
    of timidity.cfg. the default is "timidity.cfg". if building without
    configury and a config.h, you can always edit options.h to change the
    value of TIMITIDY_CFG macro.
  • fixed 8 bit output in test programs (use U8 format, not S8), along
    with some other minor issues.
  • fixed some minor portability issues.
  • added project files and standalone makefiles for windows and mac os x.
  • fixed copyright/license mistakes in some files, license clarification.
  • added standalone makefiles for less common operating systems e.g. dos,
    os/2, morphos, aros, and amigaos.

libtimidity new stable version 0.2.0

libtimidity-0.2.0 is released: This is a stable major bugfix / maintenance
release. Upgrading is encouraged. Download from here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/libtimidity/files/libtimidity/0.2.0/
ChangeLog:

  • stream.c, api change: added mid_istream_seek and mid_istream_tell to
    the mid_istream_* api. added seek and tell funcs to the _MidIStream
    structure. mid_istream_open_callbacks() is changed now accepts these
    callbacks.
  • stream.c, api change: mid_istream_open_mem() no longer accepts an
    autoclose parameter, which was error-prone.
  • MidSongOptions, api change: padded the struct with reserved members
    for better alignment.
  • mid_song_load(): options are now validated. limited the acceptable
    sample rate range to 4000-256000. MID_AUDIO_U16MSB audio format is
    now handled correctly.
  • malloc-safe: upon memory allocation failures, the library either does
    a mid_exit() to free all the allocated memory during init time, or a
    mid_song_free() to free the allocated memory during a song load time.
  • the library can be compiled using a different memory allocator than
    malloc. (edit common.h for timi_malloc and timi_free)
  • mid_init(), mid_init_no_config(): a mid_exit() is guaranteed upon
    config file parse failures or malloc() failures.
  • mid_init(): the library doesn't care about common timidity.cfg system
    locations any more, callers of mid_init() are responsible for it. if
    the config file argument to mid_init() contains a parent directory,
    that will be added to timidity search path.
  • mid_exit(): does a proper cleanup now and a reinitialization of the
    library doesn't crash.
  • multiple resampling fixes. several timidity-0.2i fixes from the
    onicos.com site (http://www.onicos.com/staff/iz/timidity/dist/),
    as well as a few bits from timidity++. several fixes for memory
    errors reported by valgrind.
  • mid_istream_skip(): accepts a long type length instead of size_t
    and returns success or failure now.
  • options.h (DEFAULT_DRUMCHANNELS): do not mark 16 as a drum channel.
  • read_midi_file(): added support for Microsoft RMID format.
  • read_midi_file(): fixed parsing of certain MIDI files with extra
    data at the end of the tracks. (SDL_mixer bug:
    http://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1299)
  • read_config_file(): honor the return code from a recursive call.
  • mid_get_version(): new function to retrieve library version.
  • DLS instruments support: made it a config time option, disabled by
    default, because the code isn't good enough, neither is it used in
    unix installations where timidity is normally needed.
  • DLS: a few changes from vavoom svn repository to fix loading of drums
    and somewhat improve the dls instruments use. still not good enough.
  • renamed macro FSCALE to TIM_FSCALE to avoid possible clashes with
    system headers. renamed FSCALENEG to TIM_FSCALENEG for consistency.
  • support for elf and macho symbol visibility attributes. support for
    windows dllexport/dllimport attributes.
  • build: changed DEBUG to TIMIDITY_DEBUG for DEBUG_MSG. made to compile
    cleanly using newer gcc versions, as well as clang. made it to compile
    using C++ compilers.
