/** \defgroup porting_1_3_4_to_1_4_0 Porting from FLAC 1.3.4 to 1.4.0
* \ingroup porting
*
* \brief
* This module describes porting from FLAC 1.3.4 to FLAC 1.4.0.
*
* \section porting_1_3_4_to_1_4_0_summary Summary
*
* Between FLAC 1.3.4 and FLAC 1.4.0, there have three breaking changes
* - the function get_client_data_from_decoder has been renamed to
* FLAC__get_decoder_client_data
* - some data types in the FLAC__Frame struct have changed
* - the C functions FLAC__stream_encoder_init_file,
* FLAC__stream_encoder_init_ogg_file, FLAC__stream_decoder_init_file
* and FLAC__stream_decoder_init_ogg_file and the C++ ::init and
* ::init_ogg class member functions of both the encoder and decoder
* now take UTF-8 encoded filenames on Windows instead of filenames in
* the current codepage
*
* Furthermore, there have been the following additions
* - the functions FLAC__stream_encoder_set_limit_min_bitrate,
* FLAC__stream_encoder_get_limit_min_bitrate,
* FLAC::encoder::file::set_limit_min_bitrate() and
* FLAC::encoder::file::get_limit_min_bitrate() have been added
* - Added FLAC__STREAM_DECODER_ERROR_STATUS_BAD_METADATA to the
* FLAC__StreamDecoderErrorStatus enum
*
* \section porting_1_3_4_to_1_4_0_breaking Breaking changes
*
* The function \b get_client_data_from_decoder was added in FLAC 1.3.3
* but did not follow the API naming convention and was not properly
* exported. The function is now renamed and properly integrated
*
* To accomodate encoding and decoding 32-bit int PCM, some data types
* in the \b FLAC__frame struct were changed. Specifically, warmup
* in both the FLAC__Subframe_Fixed struc and the FLAC__Subframe_LPC
* struct is changed from FLAC__int32 to FLAC__int64. Also, value
* in the FLAC__Subframe_Constant is changed from FLAC__int32 to
* FLAC__int64. Finally, in FLAC__Subframe_Verbatim struct data is
* changes from a FLAC__int32 array to a union containing a FLAC__int32
* array and a FLAC__int64 array. Also, a new member is added,
* data_type, which clarifies whether the FLAC__int32 or FLAC__int64
* array is in use.
*
* The last breaking change is that filenames in FLAC and FLAC++ encoder
* and decoder must now have the UTF-8 character encoding instead of
* using the current code page.
