  41. - Use NSURLSession on newer OS X versions
  42. - Add compatibility for VST 3 SDK update 3.6.6
  43. - Miscellaneous fixes and improvements
  44. Version 4.2.1
  45. - New class CachedValue, for providing easy and efficient access to ValueTree properties
  46. - Reduced audio plug-in binary sizes on OS X and added symbol-stripping option
  47. - Miscellaneous fixes and improvements
  48. Version 4.2
  49. - Added support for AudioUnit v3 on OS X and iOS
  50. - Simplified the JUCE module format. Removed the json module definition files, and made
  51. it easier to manually add modules to projects. The format is fully described in the
  52. document juce/modules/JUCE Module Format.txt
  53. - iOS project support: added custom resource folders, custom xcassets, app capabilities,
  54. and screen orientation settings.
  55. - Deleted the Introjucer.. But don't panic! All of its functionality is now supplied by a
  56. more open-source version of the Projucer. By refactoring the closed-source LLVM compilation
  57. code into a DLL, we've been able to unify the Introjucer and Projucer into a single
  58. open-source project. This will allow everyone to compile the Projucer's IDE themselves, and
  59. having just one app instead of two will make things a lot less confusing!
