- BGFX library is set in windows.mak and sdl.mak now. This ensures the
library is only build when needed.
This is necessary to be able to build MAME on systems without opengl
support.
Support was added for an optional BIN location for executables. The
default is still the root folder. Setting BIN=bin e.g. will put
executables in bin.
-Updated LUA engine to run in machine_manager instead of being initialized per machine
-Added "-console" option so emulator can be started with LUA enabled console
-Update LUA to version 5.2.3
-Enabled SQLite3 to be compiled and added LUA module for it
- Double quote filenames with spaces when writing .gdi files
- Give audio files .raw extension when writing .gdi files
- cdrom_read_subcode() now returns false if the image doesn't contain subcodes
- Bugfixed byte order for GD-ROM audio tracks so FLAC compression is effective
- Fixed uninitialized struct on MSVC (and possibly other) builds
nw: this will change the SHA1s of every GD-ROM CHD in MAME; a patch to reflect that is pending (the old images still work, they just take a little more space than is necessary). "chdman copy" suffices to upgrade; no downloading is necessary.
Moved delegates into /src/lib/util to enable usage of delegates in other project parts
Moved mame_printf_* calls into /src/osd/osdcore.c and renamed them to osd_printf_*
Changed mess.mak to display compilation of ymmu100.ppm nicely
[Aaron Giles]
* these classes now no longer take a resource_pool; everything is
managed globally -- this means that objects added to lists must be
allocated with global_alloc
* added new auto_pointer<> template which wraps a pointer and auto-frees
it upon destruction; it also defaults to NULL so it doesn't need to
be explicitly initialized
* moved tagged_list template to tagmap.h
Redo of the low-level memory tracking system: [Aaron Giles]
* moved low-level tracking out of emu\emualloc into lib\util\corealloc
so it can be shared among all components and used by core libraries
* global_alloc and friends no longer use a resource pool to track
allocations; turns out this was a wholly redundant system that wasted
a lot of memory
* removed global_resource_pool entirely
* added global_free_array to delete arrays allocated with
global_alloc_array
* added tracking of object versus array allocation; we will now error
if you use global_free on an array, or global_free_array on an object
Added new utility helper const_string_pool which can be used to
efficiently accumulate strings that are not intended to be modified.
Used by updated makelist and software list code. [Aaron Giles]
Updated png2bdc and makelist tools to not leak memory and use more modern
techniques (no more MAX_DRIVERS in makelist, for example). [Aaron Giles]
Deprecated auto_strdup and removed all uses by way of caller-managed
astrings and the software list rewrite. [Aaron Giles]
Rewrote software list management: [Aaron Giles]
* removed the notion of a software_list that is separate from a
software_list_device; they are one and the same now
* moved several functions into device_image_interface since they really
didn't belong in the core software list class
* lots of simplification as a result of the above changes
Additional notes (no whatsnew):
Moved definition of FPTR to osdcomm.h.
Some changes happened in the OSD code to fix issues, especially regarding
freeing arrays. SDL folks may need to fix up some of these.
The following devices still are using tokens and should be modernized
(I found them because they kept their token as void * and tried to
delete it, which you can't):

The examples have a ".c" suffix. In eclipse, I get automatic syntax parsing and error notifications. The parser treats "#" preprocessor defines/includes just as comments.
All of these examples can be run through nltool:
./nltool -f nl_examples/opamp.c -t 1 -l OUT
runs the opamp example for 1 second of emulation time and logs the terminal named "OUT" to "netlist_log_OUT.log".
I'll post a simple script to the list to visualize those logs using gnuplot.
