- Create device_palette_interface, which takes over most functionality from palette_device except for the initialization/decoding routines and RAM interface.
- Update screen_device and device_gfx_interface to use a device_palette_interface object rather than a palette_device. This necessitates slight alterations to a few drivers and devices.
- Modify v9938 and v9958 to use the new device_palette_interface rather than a subdevice. This entails breaking a cyclic dependency between device_video_interface and screen_device for this case.

* tee allows two peripherals to be connected in parallel
* glinkhle is an RS232 (9600 8N1) adaptor
* bitsock sends raw assert/release line signals to/from a bitbanger device
* monospkr is a speaker connected between tip/ring in parallel and sleeve
* stereospkr is two speakers: left across tip and sleeve, right across ring and sleeve
Use glinkhle to make emulated calculators talk with cooked sockets, e.g.
mame ti82 -linkport glinkhle -linkport:glinkhle:rs232 null_modem -bitb socket.127.0.0.1:2345
Use bitsock to make emulated calculators talk with cooked sockets, e.g.
mame ti82 -linkport bitsock -bitb socket.127.0.0.1:2345
You can use tee to do stuff like listen to data activity for debugging purposes, e.g.
mame ti82 -linkport tee -linkport:tee:a stereospkr -linkport:tee:b glinkhle -linkport:tee:b:glinkhle:rs232 null_modem -bitb socket.127.0.0.1:2345
* Make device_creator a variable template and get rid of the ampersands
* Remove screen.h and speaker.h from emu.h and add where necessary
* Centralise instantiations of screen and speaker finder templates
* Add/standardise #include guards in many hearers
* Remove many redundant #includes
* Order #includesr to help catch headers that can't be #included alone
(nw) This changes #include order to be prefix, unit header if applicable
then other stuff roughly in order from most dependent to least dependent
library. This helps catch headers that don't #include things that they
use.
* Remove fake interrupts and rewrite coin handling
* Use correct CPU type
* Use screen raw parameters
* Use generic 8x8x1 gfx layout
* Update ROM filenames
- Use tilemap system to draw background/foreground characters (and use
generic gfx_8x8x2_planar layout)
- Add mario and dkong3 bootlegs running on extended hardware (color
PROMs for those haven't been dumped, using the PROMs from the original
currently)
- Update and correct dip switches
- Document tile attribute RAM and sprite RAM layout bits
- Use screen raw parameters
- Add connector layout
- Update TODO list
- Update ROM filenames
New working driver:
-------------------
Donkey Kong 3 (bootleg on Ambush hardware)
- Moved 9312 and 74279 to ttl macro library.
- Renamed TTL_9312_* to DM9312. This is more appropriate.
- Fixed a number of warnings from latest ubuntu clang-5.0.
* Use size_t for sizes and <algorithm> for algorithms
* Fix up some files that were getting linked into multiple libs
* Add missing virtual method to sh2 peripheral class
* Put shortname in driver struct for locality
* Use shared pointers in config LRU cache for safety
Per Vas' request. If the compile fails for you (i'm thinking osx and
windows native debuggers here in particular), add '#include "emu.h"'
as first include of the cpp files that fail.
Due to our use of precompilation and forced inclusion, emu.h must be
included as the very first non-comment thing we do if we want to be
sure msvc compiles are identical to gcc/clang ones. Doing it directly
instead of through an include increases the correctness probability by
a magnitude.
- Created devices for the galaxy games carts (EEPROM + Flash + PIC) and the slot(s)
- Removed code patches and emulated the PIC communication and bank switching
- Converted the blitter to a device (cesblit.cpp)
- moved the Galaxy Games from tmaster.cpp to their own driver (galgames.cpp)
Provided the PIC code for all four StarPak cartridges [Keith M. Kolmos]
