Hi Christian,

With this (and installing/using clang-6), I was able to build LinuxSampler on my laptop (Mint 19.2, Tara), and it runs fine there. On the desktop PC I still have build issues, but it's running a much older Mint version (18.2 "Sonya", with gcc 5.4.0) which I'll soon update anyway, so it's perhaps not worth the time/effort. You might still want to add these explanations to LinuxSampler's README.txt; I can imagine I am not the only one tripping over this. > > Background: The LS code base is now using a lot of so called "designated > initializers", probably better described as C-style "named initializers" for > semantic critical functions/methods. Instead of this: [..] Thanks for this insightful&instructional explanation. While I am no C++ developer, I fully understand your point.
