o fix a potential problem when reading from a client. under
some circumstances the read pointer could be left on
a non-sample size boundry resulting in white noise.
o add a bit to the component use field to indicate that using
that component will override the use of other components. This
bit is used on input devices when the audio hardware does not
support recording and playing simultaneously.
o fix a problem with limiting samples on waveform devices. if you
used anything other than AuUnlimitedSamples, bad things would
happen.
Library
o fixed a problem reading some wave files.
Clients
o auphone - check for the exclusive use bit.
o auscope - display the exclusive use bit.
Misc
o support library and client compilation under Windows NT with
X11R6.1.

Server
o caused the server to return to the lowest sampling rate when a
flow terminates while playing multiple flows simultaneously.
o improved voxware dda driver.
(Thanks to Stephen Hocking and Shawn M.)
o experimental HP dda driver. (Thanks to William J. Hunter)
o add a -timeout option to the server to allow the server to
terminate after a period of time with no clients.
(Thanks to William L. Sebok)
To enable this, you must build the NAS tree using the following:
make WORLDOPTS='-k CDEBUGFLAGS="$(CDEBUGFLAGS) -DSTARTSERVER"' World

and the Sun dda drivers. (thanks to Ian Donaldson)
o fix for multiple bundle elements in a flow. (thanks to Steven King)
o improved voxware dda driver.
(thanks to Christian Schlichtherle and Stephen Hocking)
o the server now does a range check on the output data and
clips correctly. Due to the possible performance impact,
this can be disabled by commenting out the #define
OUTPUT_RANGE_CHECK in server/dia/auprocess.c. ** ATTENTION
DDA DEVELOPERS ** this fix required a change to all of the
dda drivers. The output minibufs must be twice as large as
they were previously. (thanks to Steven King)
o voxware dda driver - Fix problem (apparently from
SoundPlayFromBucket) where tail of data was not flushed
through card until start of next operation. (Thanks to Paul
F. Werkowski)
o only call dda set sample rate callback if the rate has changed.
Library
o SVR3.2 with STREAMSCONN wouldn't work with XDMCP due to a
bug in nameserver.c. (required XDMCP to be disabled; this
won't affect users of stock NAS 1.2 but would affect those
audio servers that implement XDMCP authorization checking)
(thanks to Ian Donaldson)
o fatal errors now lookup AuErrorDB for more detail.
(like Xlib does with XErrorDB) (thanks to Ian Donaldson)
o Implementation of user callable error catching functions:
AuSetErrorHandler()
AuSetIOErrorHandler()
(thanks to Ian Donaldson)
o added default error handler variables so you can catch errors
during the initial server open. (Thanks to Richard Caley)
o added some setjmp gunkus to Xtutil.c for use by error handlers.
(Thanks to Richard Caley)
o C++ compatibility. (Thanks to Yoav Eilat)

(Thanks to Paul F. Werkowski)
** Release 1.2 **
General
o A few cosmetic changes.
** PATCH 02 **
Server
o fixed a bug with monitor elements not returning the correct
data. This caused the meters in audemo to be broken.
o patches from Steven King
- In server/os/connections.c, EstablishNewConnections
probably ought to check that newconn is less than
lastfdesc before it is used in the BITSET macro (this in
the mit X11r5 source, havent looked at r6 yet), tho
you'd need lots and lots of connections to tickle
this. Also in connections.c, CheckConnections should
probably check for EINTR if select returns an error, I
dont know if any implementation of select would actually
EINTR for if it got a SIGPOLL or SIGALRM if the timeout
is zero, but better safe than sorry.
- FallbackDefineSelf exists and is only referenced in
os/access.c. Its part of the localconn patch which
obviously isnt handling non 386 svr4's correctly.
Library
o fixed a bug in AuSoundRecordToData(). The flow wasn't getting
stopped when the recording was finished.
o fixed compile problem in ConnSvr.c under Dell 2.2 Xfree86-2.1.1.
o fixed compile problems under some X11R4s that don't define _Xconst.
Clients
o fixed problem with audial -recognize messing with line mode and
gain attributes without checking to see if the device was capable.
o fixed range/clipping problem in effectsAmplitude in auedit.
General
o changed occurances of the name "NetAudio" to "Network Audio System"
or "NAS" due to a name conflict.
o patches from Ian Donaldson
- Solaris 2 server failed to link because of undefined
symbol FallbackDefineSelf().
- Shared library compilation broke completely due to
changes in NetAudio.tmpl and because the include of
<Library.tmpl> was moved too high up in
lib/audio/Imakefile, and missed out on the
DoSharedLib/DoNormalLib flags etc.
** PATCH 01 **
Server
o fixed a couple of problems with speed changes in the
SVR4 VOXware driver.
** Release 1.2b BETA **
Library
o fixed possible bogus free in sound.c.
Clients
o fixed auwave dropping core (due to bugs in the slider widget).
General
o lots of stuff from Steven King. See CHANGES.sk below for details.
o The file server/PATCHES.sk contains patches from Steven King to
improve the handling of audio clipping in the server. I've
not applied them to the standard distribution yet because
I'm concerned about their possible performance impact.
o added some documentation about actions.
** PATCH 01 **
Server
o fixed a bug with looping flows.
Library
o fixed problem with X11R4 build.
** Release 1.2a ALPHA **

lost.
o fixed a bug in readClient where the buffer was being incorrectly
padded, possibly resulting in static at the end of the audio data.
o fixed two track monitor elements.
o Sun driver
- fixed a bug that could cause the output to get jumbled.
- wait for audio to drain after flows finish.
- Sparc 10 dbri driver.
Library
o added API for set and get close down mode.
o added Amiga IFF/8SVX sound file support.

the state of the flow.
o Fixed possible memory trashing in readClient.
o Sun driver
- Don't initialize output gain or internal/external speaker
mode.
- Get rid of some 'clicks'.
- Deal with the situation when there are no physical outputs
in a flow. This fixes the core dumps when you record before
having played anything.

********************************************************************************
CHANGES.labtam
********************************************************************************
Many thanks to Ian M. Donaldson at Labtam for the following:
- Now compiles cleanly on all these without any compiler warnings
whatsoever (well the odd one or two under X11R4).
- Solaris 2.3 on SS1000 under Sun provided Open Windows 3.2
Server untested.
(We only have a SS1000 running 2.3 which has no audio device)
Porting required because Sun changed the audio interface
slightly in Solaris 2 versus SunOS 4.
Clients tested reasonably.
- AIX 3.2 on a RS6000/220 under IBM provided X11R4
No server port done. Don't have access to any IBM audio hardware.
Clients tested reasonably.
- SunOS 4.1.2 on a Sun IPX under MIT provided X11R5.
(no porting required specific to this platform)
Both clients and server tested reasonably.
- SVR4.0/486 on one of our own computers under MIT provided X11R5.
(as a guess comparable to Dell SVR4.0 or ESIX SVR4.0)
We used native STREAMSCONN TLI TCP/IP transport.
No server port done. This computer never had audio hardware.
Clients tested reasonably.
- SVR3.2/486 on one of our own computers under MIT provided X11R4.
This O/S uses Lachman provided TCP/IP, and we used
STREAMSCONN TLI TCP/IP transport.
No server port done. This computer never had audio hardware.
Clients tested reasonably.
Unfortuantely every SVR3.2 system has some different
quirk since TCP was non-standard then. No guarantees
it will compile better on other types.
- Bugfixes
- server had byte swapping error that crashed playbucket(1)
when client run from opposite endian host
- autool crashed on little endian host when volume slider was
used when stopped (hung on big endian host)
- various signal mis-use. Background processes from non-job
control shells don't die when ^C hit anymore.
- "SVR4" is not a reliable symbol for use in Imakefiles; use SystemV4
instead. (broke audial).
- in Netaudio.tmpl, don't redefine MKDIRHIER or BINDIR by
default as this breaks the bootstrap in subtle ways on
certain systems. Audio clients now get installed in the
same directory that X clients do rather than /usr/local/bin.
On Solaris 2.3 with OpenWindows, this means /usr/openwin/bin,
otherwise it usually means /usr/bin/X11.
Similarly for header files, app-defaults and libraries.
- build will not fail on systems that don't have servers ported
to them. This allows the clients and libraries to be built
on all platforms and servers on a subset.
- libaudio is built as a shared library (currently rev 2.0) on systems
where libX11 is built shared. In the list above that means
Solaris 2.3, SunOS 4.1, SVR4.0.
I used rev 1.0 for the September 93 netaudio release but changes
between then and netaudio 1.1 looked somewhat incompatable so I bumped
the revision number then.
- X11R4 compatability re-added in so compiliation in those
environments is now possible.
- STREAMSCONN support for SVR3.2 and SVR4.0 for libaudio.
This is a direct port from MIT X11R5 with the odd fix-tracker applied.
NB: Not done for auscope(1). sockets used in that case.
(this is ok but if people want binary compatability from SVR3.2
to SVR4 sockets won't work because SVR3.2 has no standard socket ABI)
- Better System-V and SVR4 support
- Use System-V reliable signals. (ie: sigset(2)).
signal(2) is unreliable on System-V systems.
Didn't bother with SVR4/POSIX signals; SVR3 signals work
fine on SVR4 and are easier to understand and code.
- don't use libucb at all on SVR4. This library is bad news
on most SVR4 systems and should be avoided like the plague!
- Better ANSI support (SVR4 + Solaris)
- use ANSI memcpy/memset exclusively on ANSI systems instead
of bcopy/bzero
- eliminated all SVR4.0/486 cc's reported warnings of callback
function type declaration mismatches. (this is the bulk
of the changes). Solaris 2 cc doesn't report half these things
unfortunately.
- auscope(1) now has a '-n' flag so it can be run in background reliably.
- 'make install' now fully installs correctly. Even app-defaults!
- 'make clean' now properly cleans

Thanks to Steven King for the following:
- building on ISC
I had a few problems building 1.2a on my system running ISC SVR3.2r4.0
with the imake enviroment provided by XFree86 (It looks to be more
work than its worth to get netaudio to build with the vendor supplied
X11R4).
In server/dia/au.h, ISC doesnt have memmove, however bcopy and friends
are in the normal library search path.
In lib/audio/Alibnet.h, the omission of the #define for _AuWriteV
resulted in link errors for all clients.
In lib/audio/Imakefile, the SYSV_DEFINES macro causes major grief if
one has installed XFree, I would expect this to be true for any SVR32
that has XFree. Also, I found it usefull to include NetAudio.tmpl
after Library.tmp so that I could redefine things like CDEBUGFLAGS and
such in NetAudio.tmpl
In clients/audio/audemo/audemo.c, ISC needed sys/time.h included, I
suspect most SYSV's will as well.
In clients/audio/audial/audial.c, the compile breaks on the inclusion
of sys/file.h, I think this is a ISC 4.0 specific problem.
- localconn patches
These patches are derived from the XFree86 2.0 release. I pretty much
just merged the XFree patches into netaudio. My principle interest
was in the streams localconn code for ISC; besides greatly improving
the performance for local clients, they allow the server to run with
the system at run level 2, or on systems where full networking isnt
availible (an extra $$$ option on ISC and lots of other PC sysVs).
In addition to the ISC code, theres also support for other systems, SVR4,
SCO, linux and net/free bsd, which may or may not be usefull depending
on the system (ie, is anyone doing an independent SCO port?). There
is also alot of code for a minix and amoeba port. I can pretty much
guarantee that this will not work, but I left it in as it doesnt affect
the other systems and might give a leg up to anyone attempting a minix
or amoeba port.
- NetAudio.tmpl
Make clients get rebuilt after libaudio.a changes.
