This is a fork of the JDKSMidi library by J.D. Koftinoff and other authors.
I made some improvemsnts to it, and specifically:
 - The development of the class AdvancedSequencer, an all-in-one object capable to load and play MIDI files with a single call to a class method.
 - Improvements to the class MIDIDriver
 - Added functions to the classes MIDITrack and MIDIMultiTrack to edit the MIDI content
 - Some bug fixes
 - Added doxygen documentation to many classes (not yet complete) 

Moreover, I added some new test programs, one of them for Windows (see the examples in the \examples\win32 folder).
Currently the driver is only effective for Windows, but ALSA drivers have been developed by Palem Gopalakrishna and
could be integrated soon.

This library was originally a collection of utility functions for MIDI written in C back in 1986 for the Atari ST computer. Since then it has evolved into a fairly powerful C++ MIDI Library including:

    * MIDI parsing
    * MIDI Show Control message creation and handling
    * Standard MIDI File type 0 and type 1 reading and writing
    * Timestamped MIDI message and System Exclusive encapsulation
    * Efficient MIDI Track objects for sequencing
    * MIDI Track objects for editing MIDI events
    * MIDI message process chains
    * Containers for multiple MIDI Tracks with iterators
    * MIDI Sequencer core for sequencing and triggering GUI events
    * MIDI Driver abstractions for I/O and sequencing
    * MIDI Driver implementation for Win32 for I/O and sequencing
    * Tempo calculations
    * MIDI Matrix to count note on's and off's and hold pedals to avoid stuck notes and all-notes-off problems when merging midi streams
    * SMPTE management and calculations 
    * MIDI Utilities useful functions
