meico v0.8.0

v0.8.0
All who used meico as an application so far, should from now on use file meicoApp.jar!

• Reorganization of the meico programming library and application code as well as its release assets.
  • Meico is basically a programming library. All content of package meico.app is example code for meico's usage in application projects. However, for the graphical meico application certain JavaFX dependencies had to be added to meico which complicated development for other applications that do not rely on JavaFX. Thus, we decided to split the meico code base into the core functionality and the example applications.
  • The release assets include
    • meico.jar (the headless core functionality to be used by other development projects) and
    • meicoApp.jar (the standalone runnable jar with the commandline and graphical application, it includes meico.jar).
  • The code base has been reorganized accordingly.
    • The master branch contains the headless meico, no application code or application-related dependencies. This is all you need to develop your own meico application.
    • The meicoApp branch contains the meico.app package and all other demo applications (meicoPy and the REST demo).
  • Class meico.Meico has been stripped down. It no longer contains any launcher code, only meico's current version number. MeicoApp launches from its own main class meico.app.Main.
  • Class meico.supplementary.VerovioProvider as been removed. Verovio cannot be part of the headless meico base. It works only with a browser environment and that is only present in meicoApp (which still contains Verovio).
  • File README.md has been updated. Licenses are also a bit different for those who use the headless meico package as JavaFX, Verovio and Font Awesome are used only in meicoApp and not in the base package.

meico v0.7.10

v0.7.10

• Class meico.mpm.Mpm, when instantiated, parses the XML data and generates an exception if no element metadata was found. However, this is no encoding error and should not produce error messages. This has been fixed.
• Local Verovio update to v2.7.0-dev-02b4f36.
• Added new class meico.supplementary.VerovioProvider to be used in other classes (Mei, MusicXml) as a convenient handle to get the Verovio Toolkit script.

meico v0.7.9

v0.7.9

• Method meico.audio.Audio.convertByteArray2DoubleArray() has been generalized to also work with sample sizes other than 16 bit. The method will no longer mix the two stereo channels into one, but returns an ArrayList with both channels, one double array each.
• Replaced the Java LAME sources in package meico.audio by external file net.sourceforge.lame-3.98.4.jar.
• In class meico.audio.Audio the new method decodeMp3ToPcm() has been added. With this, MP3 files can be imported, are decoded to PCM audio and can be stored as WAV files.
• Methods writeAudio() and writeMp3() in class meico.audio.Audio have been improved to make sure that a wave file is not stored with .mp3 extension and vice versa.
• Some minor JavaDocs improvements and README.md update.
• Changed com.sun.media.sound.InvalidDataException by Exception for compatibility with newer Java versions.

meico v0.7.8

v0.7.8

• Added MPM metadata support to package meico.mpm.
• The MPM metadata will also be generated during MEI-to-MPM export.
• Added a JavaDoc shield to README.md

meico v0.7.7

v0.7.7

• Some refactoring in classes meico.mpm.elements.maps.ImprecisionMap and meico.mpm.elements.maps.data.DistributionData to avoid naming confusion with the MPM specification.
• Added MPM validation to class meico.app.gui.DataObject.
• In class meico.mpm.Mpm
  • Fix: No generation of an empty element relatedResources.
  • Extension: Methods for the deletion of elements from relatedResources have been added.

meico v0.7.6

v0.7.6

• Added support for attribute seed to the MPM distribution elements and imprecision maps.

meico v0.7.5

v0.7.5

• Some refactoring of MPM attributes to be compliant with the schema definition.
• In the GUI app, when an MPM is reloaded and its performances are displayed on the workspace, these performance objects do not update together with the MPM and, thus, are no longer consistent with their parent. This is confusing to the user. Hence, they are removed now and newly created from the updated data.

meico v0.7.4

v0.7.4

• Enhancement in method meico.mei.Mei.processMeasure(). If a measure does not comply with the underlying time signature meico needs to add another timeSignature element in the timeSignatureMap. However, the subsequent measure may comply with the original time signature. Hence, at the end of the non-compliant measure meico should switch back to the original time signature. This is what it does now.
• Minor stability fix in method meico.mei.Mei.addDynamicsToMpm().

meico v0.7.3

v0.7.3

• MPM attributes startStyle and defaultArticulation have been removed from all ...-Map elements. Initial styles are indicated by style switches (e.g. <style date="0.0" name.ref="my initial style"/> and for articulation maps <style date="0.0" name.ref="my initial style" defaultArticulation="nonlegato"/>) at the beginning of of the map. The corresponding code changes are in classes meico.mei.Mei, meico.mpm.maps.ArticulationMap, DynamicsMap, GenericMap, MetricalAccentuationMap, RubatoMap, TempoMap.
• In class meico.mpm.Mpm element referenceMusic is renamed to relatedResources and element reference has been renamed to resource.

meico v0.7.2

v0.7.2

• Bugfix in meico.mei.Mei.addArticulationToMap() so it really generates articulations.
