Hi, With the help of Andreas and Grigor I was able to implement Instruments DB support on Windows I already commited the changes to CVS. To make it work on Windows you have to do the following:
install sqlite go to: http://www.sqlite.org/download.html download sqlite-amalgamation-3.6.14.2.tar.gz (1.27 MiB) ./configure ; make ; make install it installs a .pc file so LinuxSampler's pkgconfig will automatically recognize the presence of SQLite and compile in Instruments DB support. for some reason LinuxSampler's configure script does not honor the option --enable-default-instruments-db-location=C:\mydir\instruments.db despite the configure output showing the correct path when doing make install it tries to initialize the DB using the standard file location /var/lib/linuxsampler/instuments.db so for now you have to create the DB manually using linuxsampler.exe linuxsampler.exe --create-instruments-db "C:\mydir\instruments.db" and then launch linuxsampler with linuxsampler.exe --instruments-db-location "C:\mydir\instruments.db" if you load LS as VST plugin then it probably does not find the Instruments DB as is it set to /var/lib/linuxsampler/instruments.db In order to work correcty so that both the standalone and VST version of LS use the same Instruments DB file it is necessary to add support for relative paths for the instruments DB file similar to what the editor plugin loader does. This was implemented by Andreas so perhaps it would be nice if Andreas could add this to the instruments DB class too (or give some hints what's the best way to add it to the Instruments DB class). cheers, Benno ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ OpenSolaris 2009.06 is a cutting edge operating system for enterprises looking to deploy the next generation of Solaris that includes the latest innovations from Sun and the OpenSource community.
