11 * Updated to autoconf 2.59, automake 1.8.2, libtool 1.5.2.
13 * Fixed a potential problem in file.c when writing empty ID3v2 tags.
15 * Added new id3_field_gettextencoding() API routine.
19 * Updated to autoconf 2.57, automake 1.7.5, libtool 1.4.3.
21 * Added new id3_tag_version(), id3_tag_options(), id3_tag_setlength(),
22 id3_frame_field(), id3_field_getlatin1(), id3_field_getfulllatin1(),
23 id3_genre_index(), id3_genre_number(), id3_latin1_ucs4duplicate(),
24 id3_utf16_ucs4duplicate(), and id3_utf8_ucs4duplicate() API routines.
26 * Properly exposed the id3_frame_new(), id3_frame_delete(), and
27 id3_field_type() API routines.
29 * Fixed a possible segmentation fault rendering ID3v1 tags when a tag
30 field exceeds the field length limit.
32 * Fixed a problem whereby the file interface could try to seek and read
33 data from a non-seekable stream, unrecoverably losing data from the
34 stream. (N.B. the fix does not work under Win32.)
36 * Fixed a problem reading ID3v2.2 frames which corrupted their frame IDs
37 and caused them not to be re-rendered.
39 * Improved rendering of the ID3v1 genre field from ID3v2 genre
40 names/numbers. The genre "Other" is used in place of non-translatable
43 * Rendering an empty ID3v1 tag now properly returns 0 length even when a
44 null buffer pointer is passed.
46 * Changed the file implementation to maintain information about present
47 but unparseable tags, instead of ignoring all tags and returning an
50 * Added an external dependency on zlib (libz), which is no longer
53 * Changed to build a shared library by default.
55 * Changed to use native Cygwin build by default; give --host=mingw32 to
56 `configure' to use MinGW (and avoid a dependency on the Cygwin DLL).
60 * Changed Cygwin builds to use MinGW; resulting Win32 executables no
61 longer have a dependency on Cygwin DLLs.
65 * Updated config.guess and config.sub to latest upstream versions.
67 * Enabled libtool versioning rather than release numbering.
69 * Renamed `libid3' to `libid3tag' and enabled installation as a separate
72 * Several other small fixes.
76 * Added a new ID3 tag manipulation library (libid3). The required zlib
77 support is provided either by the host system or by the included static
78 library implementation (libz).
80 * Improved MSVC++ portability and added MSVC++ project files.
