[linux-audio-announce] [ANN] Jack Audio Connection Kit 0.98.16 Release

JACK RELEASE 0.98.16 JACK is a low-latency audio server, written primarily for the GNU/Linux operating system. It can connect a number of different applications to an audio device, as well as allowing them to share audio between themselves. Its clients can run in their own processes (ie. as normal applications), or can they can run within the JACK server (ie. as a "plugin"). JACK is different from other audio server efforts in that it has been designed from the ground up to be suitable for professional audio work. This means that it focuses on two key areas: synchronous execution of all clients, and low latency operation. JACK is available at http://jackit.sf.net --CHANGES-- Buffer resizing enabled by default. Added jack_ringbuffer_peak() to API. Added jack_last_frame_time() to API. --verbose will print the maximum usecs used on jackd termination. Better compatibility with NPTL. --version output changed for easier parsing. New --unlock/-u option so that large libraries (gtk, qt, fltk, wine) aren't memlocked. Jack's tmp files now have the uid appended to them, so if there is a crash, and then another user tries to use jack, it will still work. New jack_create_thread() cleans up threading for portability. Available for use by jack clients too. New CoreAudio driver from the Jackosx project included in jack tree. Prettier configure output. and of course, updated documentation, better error reporting, and misc internal fixes and cleanups.
