New MAJOR release 04.00.00 Note: This release is incompatible with previous versions! Applications using the C part of this library must no longer put extern "C" around the headers! Changes since 03.01.02: - Moved from C to C++. This is just changing the compiler and the ABI to C++, no actual change into OOP etc. was done. This mostly avoids the need for extern "C". - Made some error messages more verbose for easier debugging - Some improvements in the build environment
