+/* CHANGELOG FOR PORTMIDI
+ * (see ../CHANGELOG.txt)
+ *
+ * NOTES ON HOST ERROR REPORTING:
+ *
+ * PortMidi errors (of type PmError) are generic, system-independent errors.
+ * When an error does not map to one of the more specific PmErrors, the
+ * catch-all code pmHostError is returned. This means that PortMidi has
+ * retained a more specific system-dependent error code. The caller can
+ * get more information by calling Pm_HasHostError() to test if there is
+ * a pending host error, and Pm_GetHostErrorText() to get a text string
+ * describing the error. Host errors are reported on a per-device basis
+ * because only after you open a device does PortMidi have a place to
+ * record the host error code. I.e. only
+ * those routines that receive a (PortMidiStream *) argument check and
+ * report errors. One exception to this is that Pm_OpenInput() and
+ * Pm_OpenOutput() can report errors even though when an error occurs,
+ * there is no PortMidiStream* to hold the error. Fortunately, both
+ * of these functions return any error immediately, so we do not really
+ * need per-device error memory. Instead, any host error code is stored
+ * in a global, pmHostError is returned, and the user can call
+ * Pm_GetHostErrorText() to get the error message (and the invalid stream
+ * parameter will be ignored.) The functions
+ * pm_init and pm_term do not fail or raise
+ * errors. The job of pm_init is to locate all available devices so that
+ * the caller can get information via PmDeviceInfo(). If an error occurs,
+ * the device is simply not listed as available.
+ *
+ * Host errors come in two flavors:
+ * a) host error
+ * b) host error during callback
+ * These can occur w/midi input or output devices. (b) can only happen
+ * asynchronously (during callback routines), whereas (a) only occurs while
+ * synchronously running PortMidi and any resulting system dependent calls.
+ * Both (a) and (b) are reported by the next read or write call. You can
+ * also query for asynchronous errors (b) at any time by calling
+ * Pm_HasHostError().
+ *
+ * NOTES ON COMPILE-TIME SWITCHES
+ *
+ * DEBUG assumes stdio and a console. Use this if you want automatic, simple
+ * error reporting, e.g. for prototyping. If you are using MFC or some
+ * other graphical interface with no console, DEBUG probably should be
+ * undefined.
+ * PM_CHECK_ERRORS more-or-less takes over error checking for return values,
+ * stopping your program and printing error messages when an error
+ * occurs. This also uses stdio for console text I/O.

+
+ inputDriverInfo is a pointer to an optional driver specific data structure
+ containing additional information for device setup or handle processing.
+ inputDriverInfo is never required for correct operation. If not used
+ inputDriverInfo should be NULL.

+ outputDriverInfo is a pointer to an optional driver specific data structure
+ containing additional information for device setup or handle processing.
+ outputDriverInfo is never required for correct operation. If not used
+ outputDriverInfo should be NULL.
+
+ For input, the buffersize specifies the number of input events to be
+ buffered waiting to be read using Pm_Read(). For output, buffersize
+ specifies the number of output events to be buffered waiting for output.
+ (In some cases -- see below -- PortMidi does not buffer output at all
+ and merely passes data to a lower-level API, in which case buffersize
+ is ignored.)
+
+ latency is the delay in milliseconds applied to timestamps to determine
+ when the output should actually occur. (If latency is < 0, 0 is assumed.)
+ If latency is zero, timestamps are ignored and all output is delivered
+ immediately. If latency is greater than zero, output is delayed until the
+ message timestamp plus the latency. (NOTE: the time is measured relative
+ to the time source indicated by time_proc. Timestamps are absolute,
+ not relative delays or offsets.) In some cases, PortMidi can obtain
+ better timing than your application by passing timestamps along to the
+ device driver or hardware. Latency may also help you to synchronize midi
+ data to audio data by matching midi latency to the audio buffer latency.
+
+ time_proc is a pointer to a procedure that returns time in milliseconds. It
+ may be NULL, in which case a default millisecond timebase (PortTime) is
+ used. If the application wants to use PortTime, it should start the timer
+ (call Pt_Start) before calling Pm_OpenInput or Pm_OpenOutput. If the
+ application tries to start the timer *after* Pm_OpenInput or Pm_OpenOutput,
+ it may get a ptAlreadyStarted error from Pt_Start, and the application's
+ preferred time resolution and callback function will be ignored.
+ time_proc result values are appended to incoming MIDI data, and time_proc
+ times are used to schedule outgoing MIDI data (when latency is non-zero).
+
+ time_info is a pointer passed to time_proc.
+
+ Example: If I provide a timestamp of 5000, latency is 1, and time_proc
+ returns 4990, then the desired output time will be when time_proc returns
+ timestamp+latency = 5001. This will be 5001-4990 = 11ms from now.

+ All midi data comes in the form of PmEvent structures. A sysex
+ message is encoded as a sequence of PmEvent structures, with each
+ structure carrying 4 bytes of the message, i.e. only the first
+ PmEvent carries the status byte.
+
+ Note that MIDI allows nested messages: the so-called "real-time" MIDI
+ messages can be inserted into the MIDI byte stream at any location,
+ including within a sysex message. MIDI real-time messages are one-byte
+ messages used mainly for timing (see the MIDI spec). PortMidi retains
+ the order of non-real-time MIDI messages on both input and output, but
+ it does not specify exactly how real-time messages are processed. This
+ is particulary problematic for MIDI input, because the input parser
+ must either prepare to buffer an unlimited number of sysex message
+ bytes or to buffer an unlimited number of real-time messages that
+ arrive embedded in a long sysex message. To simplify things, the input
+ parser is allowed to pass real-time MIDI messages embedded within a
+ sysex message, and it is up to the client to detect, process, and
+ remove these messages as they arrive.
+
+ When receiving sysex messages, the sysex message is terminated
+ by either an EOX status byte (anywhere in the 4 byte messages) or
+ by a non-real-time status byte in the low order byte of the message.
+ If you get a non-real-time status byte but there was no EOX byte, it
+ means the sysex message was somehow truncated. This is not
+ considered an error; e.g., a missing EOX can result from the user
+ disconnecting a MIDI cable during sysex transmission.
+
+ A real-time message can occur within a sysex message. A real-time
+ message will always occupy a full PmEvent with the status byte in
+ the low-order byte of the PmEvent message field. (This implies that
+ the byte-order of sysex bytes and real-time message bytes may not
+ be preserved -- for example, if a real-time message arrives after
+ 3 bytes of a sysex message, the real-time message will be delivered
+ first. The first word of the sysex message will be delivered only
+ after the 4th byte arrives, filling the 4-byte PmEvent message field.
+
+ The timestamp field is observed when the output port is opened with
+ a non-zero latency. A timestamp of zero means "use the current time",
+ which in turn means to deliver the message with a delay of
+ latency (the latency parameter used when opening the output port.)
+ Do not expect PortMidi to sort data according to timestamps --
+ messages should be sent in the correct order, and timestamps MUST
+ be non-decreasing. See also "Example" for Pm_OpenOutput() above.
+
+ A sysex message will generally fill many PmEvent structures. On
+ output to a PortMidiStream with non-zero latency, the first timestamp
+ on sysex message data will determine the time to begin sending the
+ message. PortMidi implementations may ignore timestamps for the
+ remainder of the sysex message.
+
+ On input, the timestamp ideally denotes the arrival time of the
+ status byte of the message. The first timestamp on sysex message
+ data will be valid. Subsequent timestamps may denote
+ when message bytes were actually received, or they may be simply
+ copies of the first timestamp.
+
+ Timestamps for nested messages: If a real-time message arrives in
+ the middle of some other message, it is enqueued immediately with
+ the timestamp corresponding to its arrival time. The interrupted
+ non-real-time message or 4-byte packet of sysex data will be enqueued
+ later. The timestamp of interrupted data will be equal to that of
+ the interrupting real-time message to insure that timestamps are
+ non-decreasing.
