* move rarely-used output and pty interfaces out of emu.h
* consolidate and de-duplicate forward declarations, also remove some obsolete ones
* clean up more #include guard macros
* scope down a few more things
(nw) Everyone, please keep forward declarations for src/emu in src/emu/emufwd.h -
this will make it far easier to keep them in sync with declarations than having
them scattered through all the other files.

uismall.bdf: set default character for missing glyphs
rendfont.cpp:
* encapsulate many BDF and BDC handling details
* make file I/O 64-bit clean, check for allocation errors
* more solid BDF parser with error messages and trace logging
* fix heap smash when building bitmaps for BDF fonts
* extend BDC format to support high planes and default character
* render default character if glyph not found for BDF/BDC
* New abbreviated types are in osd and util namespaces, and also in global namespace for things that #include "emu.h"
* Get rid of import of cstdint types to global namespace (C99 does this anyway)
* Remove the cstdint types from everything in emu
* Get rid of U64/S64 macros
* Fix a bug in dps16 caused by incorrect use of macro
* Fix debugcon not checking for "do " prefix case-insensitively
* Fix a lot of messed up tabulation
* More constexpr
* Fix up many __names
Use standard uint64_t, uint32_t, uint16_t or uint8_t instead of UINT64, UINT32, UINT16 or UINT8
also use standard int64_t, int32_t, int16_t or int8_t instead of INT64, INT32, INT16 or INT8
almost certainly some regressions lurking. Let me know if
something seems busted.
Bitmaps are now strongly typed based on format. bitmap_t still
exists as an abstract base class, but it is almost never used.
Instead, format-specific bitmap classes are provided:
bitmap_ind8 == 8bpp indexed
bitmap_ind16 == 16bpp indexed
bitmap_ind32 == 32bpp indexed
bitmap_ind64 == 64bpp indexed
bitmap_rgb32 == 32bpp RGB
bitmap_argb32 == 32bpp ARGB
bitmap_yuy16 == 16bpp YUY
For each format, a generic pix() method is provided which
references pixels of the correct type. The old pix8/pix16/pix32/
pix64 methods still exist in the short term, but the only one
available is the one that matches the bitmap's pixel size. Note
also that the old RGB15 format bitmaps are no longer supported
at all.
Converted model1, megadriv, and stv drivers away from the RGB15
format bitmaps.
New auto_bitmap_<type>_alloc() macros are provided for allocating
the appropriate type of bitmap.
Screen update functions now must specify the correct bitmap type
as their input parameters. For static update functions the
SCREEN_UPDATE macro is now replaced with SCREEN_UPDATE_RGB32 and
SCREEN_UPDATE_IND16 macros. All existing drivers have been
updated to use the correct macros.
Screen update functions are now required for all screens; there
is no longer any default behavior of copying a "default" bitmap
to the screen (in fact the default bitmap has been deprecated).
Use one of the following to specify your screen_update callback:
MCFG_SCREEN_UPDATE_STATIC(name) - static functions
MCFG_SCREEN_UPDATE_DRIVER(class, func) - driver members
MCFG_SCREEN_UPDATE_DEVICE(tag, class, func) - device members
Because the target bitmap format can now be deduced from the
screen update function itself, the MCFG_SCREEN_FORMAT macro is
no longer necessary, and has been removed. If you specify a
screen update callback that takes a bitmap_ind16, then the screen
will be configured to use a 16bpp indexed bitmap, and if you
specify a callback that takes a bitmap_rgb32, then a 32bpp RGB
bitmap will be provided.
Extended the bitmap classes to support wrapping a subregion of
another bitmap, and cleaner allocation/resetting. The preferred
use of bitmaps now is to define them directly in drivers/devices
and use allocate() or wrap() to set them up, rather than
allocating them via auto_bitmap_*_alloc().
Several common devices needed overhauls or changes as a result
of the above changes:
* Reorganized the laserdisc base driver and all the laserdisc
drivers as modern C++ devices, cleaning the code up
considerably. Merged ldsound device into the laserdsc
device since modern devices are flexible enough to handle
it.
* Reorganized the v9938 device as a modern C++ device. Removed
v9938mod.c in favor of template functions in v9938.c directly.
* Added independent ind16 and rgb32 callbacks for TMS340x0 devices.
* All video devices are now hard-coded to either ind16 or rgb32
bitmaps. The most notable is the mc6845 which is rgb32, and
required changes to a number of consumers.
* Added screen_update methods to most video devices so they can be
directly called via MCFG_SCREEN_UPDATE_DEVICE instead of creating
tons of stub functions.
to pass a core_options object to the constructor, along with
a search path. This required pushing either a running_machine
or a core_options through some code that wasn't previously
ready to handle it. emu_files can be reused over multiple
open/close sessions, and a lot of core code cleaned up
nicely as things were converted to them.
Also created a file_enumerator class for iterating over files
in a searchpath. This replaces the old mame_openpath functions.
Changed machine->options() to return a reference.
Removed public nvram_open() and fixed jchan/kaneko16 to
stop directly saving NVRAM.
Removed most of the mame_options() calls; this will soon go
away entirely, so don't add any more.
Added core_options to device_validity_check() so they can be
used to validate things.
if it owns a given font (based on the name), and if it does, it is
responsible for generating bitmaps on the fly as characters are requested.
Added new option -uifont to specify the UI font. It can be set to a filename,
in which case a BDF font will be loaded. It can also be set to a font name
(assuming the OSD support is present), in which case the OSD font by that
name is used. The default value is 'default' which can be used by the OSD
to substitute a default font or by the OSD, which will default to ui.bdf
as before. In all cases, it falls back to the built-in font by default if
none of the previous options works.
On Windows, the OSD will default to Tahoma as the font name. Also on
Windows, font names can be specified with [b] to indicate bold or [i] to
indicate italic.
- Created new central header "emu.h"; this should be included
by pretty much any driver or device as the first include. This
file in turn includes pretty much everything a driver or device
will need, minus any other devices it references. Note that
emu.h should *never* be included by another header file.
- Updated all files in the core (src/emu) to use emu.h.
- Removed a ton of redundant and poorly-tracked header includes
from within other header files.
- Temporarily changed driver.h to map to emu.h until we update
files outside of the core.
Added class wrapper around tagmap so it can be directly included
and accessed within objects that need it. Updated all users to
embed tagmap objects and changed them to call through the class.
Added nicer functions for finding devices, ports, and regions in
a machine:
machine->device("tag") -- return the named device, or NULL
machine->port("tag") -- return the named port, or NULL
machine->region("tag"[, &length[, &flags]]) -- return the
named region and optionally its length and flags
Made the device tag an astring. This required touching a lot of
code that printed the device to explicitly fetch the C-string
from it. (Thank you gcc for flagging that issue!)
- removed years from copyright notices
- removed redundant (c) from copyright notices
- updated "the MAME Team" to be "Nicola Salmoria and the MAME Team"
