///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Version: 2.1b
Module : CDLSLoader.cpp
Purpose: Code implementation for CDLSLoader class
Created: CJP / 02-08-2002
History: CJP / 03-25-2003 
	
	Update: 09/20/2002

	1. Improved class destructors

	2. Check member variables for NULL values before performing an operation
		
	3. Restructured the class system
	
	4. Better method to enumerate and select MIDI ports
	
	5. Adapted the external thread to a pure virtual function

	6. SysEx reception and sending enabled

	7. Added flexible conversion functions

	8. Find out how to activate the Microsoft software synth. 

	9. Added DLS support

  Update: 03/25/2003

	10. Added exception handling

    11. Fixed bugs with channel groups
  
    12. Redesigned class hierarchy
	
    13. DirectMidi wrapped in the directmidi namespace
  
    14. UNICODE/MBCS support for instruments and ports

	15. Added DELAY effect to software synthesizer ports
	
	16. Project released under GNU (General Public License) terms
