* verinfo: New syntax.
verinfo now uses the following syntax: verinfo.exe -b windows|winui|mess.
Does not depend on compile time defines any longer.
* makefile will include - if it exists - src/osd/$(CROSS_BUILD_OSD)/build.mak.
This was necessary to enable cross builds for winui. winui adds mkhelp to build tools and the rules for mkhelp thus had to be moved outside src/osd/winui/winui.mak
* Tested on Linux 64bit, Linux 32bit, Windows 32bit mingw, Windows 32bit MSVC
* Cross build environment to be posted to the list
ALL DRIVERS MUST NOW EXPLICITLY DECLARE THEIR SCREENS.
Read on for more detail....
Added device tag as a parameter to the start function for devices.
Updated MC6845 to accept this tag.
Added new functions for iterating through the device list and
counting devices of a given type. Updated search and iteration
functions to accept DEVICE_TYPE_WILDCARD to work across all
devices.
Added new macro MDRV_DEVICE_CONFIG_DATA() which is used to set a
single item in an inline data structure.
Removed the per-screen palette_base. This was an idea that never
really worked out, nor have we really needed it.
Defined a new device type VIDEO_SCREEN. Currently this has no
live functionality, but merely serves as a placeholder/identifier
for video screens. Eventually some of the screen management code
may move into the start/stop/reset functions.
Changed MDRV_SCREEN_* macros to build up VIDEO_SCREEN devices
rather than storing values in the screen[] array.
Changed MDRV_SCREEN_ADD to specify a screen type (RASTER, VECTOR,
LCD for the moment).
Removed the older VIDEO_TYPE_RASTER and VIDEO_TYPE_VECTOR; this
information is now determined by walking the screen list.
Removed the screen[] array from machine_config. Modified all code
referencing Machine->config->screen[] and changed it to iterate
over the devices using the new video_screen_first() and
video_screen_next() functions.
(The next step will be to add video_* functions that accept a tag
instead of screen index, and then move systems over to always
referencing screens by tag instead of index.)
Removed implicit screen #0. This means that ALL DRIVERS MUST
EXPLICITLY DECLARE THEIR SCREENS. Updated all drivers to do
so. While there, grouped all MDRV_SCREEN_* parameters together.
Also removed unnecessary VIDEO_TYPE_RASTER and VIDEO_TYPE_VECTOR.
Also removed VBLANK and bitmap format information from vector
games. This was painful and very tedious.
Changed game information to display info about all screens.
a new compile-time define (ENABLE_DEBUGGER). This means that MAME_DEBUG no longer means
"enable debugger", it simply enables debugging features such as assertions and debug code
in drivers.
Also removed the various levels of opbase protection in memory.h and always just turned
on full bounds checking.
Fixed build break due to missing ampoker.lay -> ampoker2.lay renaming.
The idea is to create extra work if a driver wants to use these and hopefully
gives an incentive to look for an alternate solution
- Added #include of deprecat.h that rely on these contructs
- Removed a bunch of unneccassary #include's from these files
Subject: [patch] Fix C4305 warnings, other MSVC tweaks
Hi mamedev,
This patch is a bit of a potpourri. It is the result of enabling most
of the suppressed warnings when using MSVC compilers and seeing what
issues arose with different compilers (I used 70,71,80,90). Two of
the warnings were judged to be useful to enable and methodically fix.
Some issues spotted by the other warnings were also fixed.
1. Fixed issues flagged by MSVC warning C4305 (type truncation).
Almost all of these are harmless double->float narrowing in
initializers, but one warning spotlighted a bug in segasyse.c, where
code to use a higher sprite number had no effect due to the
insufficient range of UINT8.
2. Removed /wd4550 for VS7/VS71 compilers (expression evaluates to a
function which is missing an argument list). There are no cases of
this warning currently, and if there were they would most certainly be
bugs. This also allowed the warning suppression lists to be remerged
for VS7 and VS2005.
3. Decoupled intrinsic support decisions from PTR64 in eivc.h.
4. Fixed some VS7-specific issues (OPTIMIZE=0 at least compiles now).
That compiler doesn't support "long long" or "ll" (rsp.c/dkong.c).
5. Added a missing case statement in sm8500d.c. Noticed while
reviewing dead code warnings.
6. Replaced a number of static constants with an enum in sidenvel.h.
This is unrelated to the rest of this patch, but it was overdue to be
done.
- added MESS PC-Engine emulatation
- added Blazing Lazers (working)
- added Paranoia (non-working due to lack of jamma interface
emulation)
- fixed MAME debug build under VC2003
Please co-credit Charles MacDonald & Mr. Do for Blazing Lazers.
Note to Nathan: video/vdc.* re taken as-is from MESS, for the
machine stuff I extracted common code (to be shared by MAME and
MESS) and created machine/pcecommn.*
Added code to debug 64-bit builds to allocate all address space below 4GB to help find 64-bit errors.
Added environment variable OSDDEBUGMALLOC which, if set, explicitly overrides the debug malloc debug settings.
Added environment variable OSDDEBUG4GB which, if set, explicitly overrides the new 64-bit address space allocations.
(Sadly this is necessary due to my nvidia D3D drivers being 64-bit unclean....)
- removed years from copyright notices
- removed redundant (c) from copyright notices
- updated "the MAME Team" to be "Nicola Salmoria and the MAME Team"
beastrzb097u2red.patch
- added GAME_NOT_WORKING flag, so this bogus bug report can be
removed (not even worth 1 buck!)
20080104_1.patch
- fixes a memory in src/mame/machine/stvcd.c
memoryleak0118u1ora.patch
- fixes a memory leak, that only happened when no RawInput API was
available
memory_leak0111u6ora_1.patch
- only a partial patch - model3.c still missing
