* 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]
New working machines
--------------------
Galaxy Games StarPak 3
[Keith M. Kolmos, Rod_Wod, Sean Sutton, Soren Skou Nielsen, Russell Howard, Francis Ramirez,
Tourniquet, BrianT, coolmod, Smitdogg, The Dumping Union, Luca Elia]
* Put Amiga keyboard implementations in a namespace
* Factor out matrix keys to a common module shared by A500/A1200
* Make new German matrix based on US matrix with Alt-chars hooked up
* Remove outdated comment
- Create EFO, Promat, Terminal, Wing projects to help reduce the weight of libmisc
- Eliminate Veltmeijer Automaten project (only two games by this company are in MAME, and one actually on Excellent System hardware)
* Added m146805 and m68hc05 to unidasm
* Made opcode tables configurable in m6805_base_device, provided tables for HMOS, CMOS and HC families
* Implemented MUL instruction, made unimplemented STOP and WAIT raise fatal error
* Added skeleton MC68HC05C4 with RAM and ROM in correct locations in memory map
Device implementations (all cpp files in netlist/devices) now should
only include nl_base.h.
Netlist implementation sources should only include "net_lib.h".
Refactored netlist.h and netlist.cpp to avoid namespace congestion in
netlist.h.
Fixed VC2015 build. (nw)
* should be #included after other headers and after optionally #defining VERBOSE
* usage samples in z80scc.cpp and m68705.cpp
68705: add lots of logging to help trace issues
m68705: expose more more internal registers through the state interface
* shows contents of registers that can't be read by program code
i8251: make receive more reliable clean up a little
zorba: meat on the bones
* create emulated keyboard device
- 88 of 96 matrix keys identified, 6 of 8 DIP switches identified, 3 of 6 outputs identified
* connect IEEE-488, RS232 and Centronics ports
* hook up all IRQ sources and connect PIT to UARTs
* more notes
osborne1, gladiatr: use input changed member (nw)
- refactored reverse polish notation evaluator into own source files.
- added function parameter to current and voltage sources VS and CS.
You can now use those to e.g. produce a sine wave.
- Changed code to allow devices to optionally be treated as dynamic or
timestepping devices.
[Couriersud]
* remove non-obvious mcu_status_r and semaphore_r members and move to drivers (varies by system)
* slap fight functionality can be safely folded into base class so do so
* remove leftover crud from driver state classes
qix.cpp, bub68705, changela: use new MC68705P3 core
* Moved 68705 devices into their own file.
* Made P3, P5 and U3 variants and made them load bootstrap ROMs.
* Implemented EPROM control (write is stubbed out with a logerror).
* Implemented differences for open drain I/O ports.
(nw) Base device with peripherals should really derive from the 6805
device directly, not the 68705 devices, as I/O ports are present on mask
devices (e.g. 6805P2). All drivers and devices that were using
M68705_NEW have been changed to M68705P5 - someone who knows the drivers
better should fix them up.
