The core changes are: * Short name, full name and source file are no longer members of device_t, they are part of the device type * MACHINE_COFIG_START no longer needs a driver class * MACHINE_CONFIG_DERIVED_CLASS is no longer necessary * Specify the state class you want in the GAME/COMP/CONS line * The compiler will work out the base class where the driver init member is declared * There is one static device type object per driver rather than one per machine configuration Use DECLARE_DEVICE_TYPE or DECLARE_DEVICE_TYPE_NS to declare device type. * DECLARE_DEVICE_TYPE forward-declares teh device type and class, and declares extern object finders. * DECLARE_DEVICE_TYPE_NS is for devices classes in namespaces - it doesn't forward-declare the device type. Use DEFINE_DEVICE_TYPE or DEFINE_DEVICE_TYPE_NS to define device types. * These macros declare storage for the static data, and instantiate the device type and device finder templates. The rest of the changes are mostly just moving stuff out of headers that shouldn't be there, renaming stuff for consistency, and scoping stuff down where appropriate. Things I've actually messed with substantially: * More descriptive names for a lot of devices * Untangled the fantasy sound from the driver state, which necessitates breaking up sound/flip writes * Changed DECO BSMT2000 ready callback into a device delegate * Untangled Microprose 3D noise from driver state * Used object finders for CoCo multipak, KC85 D002, and Irem sound subdevices * Started to get TI-99 stuff out of the TI-990 directory and arrange bus devices properly * Started to break out common parts of Samsung ARM SoC devices * Turned some of FM, SID, SCSP DSP, EPIC12 and Voodoo cores into something resmbling C++ * Tried to make Z180 table allocation/setup a bit safer * Converted generic keyboard/terminal to not use WRITE8 - space/offset aren't relevant * Dynamically allocate generic terminal buffer so derived devices (e.g. teleprinter) can specify size * Imporved encapsulation of Z80DART channels * Refactored the SPC7110 bit table generator loop to make it more readable * Added wrappers for SNES PPU operations so members can be made protected * Factored out some boilerplate for YM chips with PSG * toaplan2 gfx * stic/intv resolution * Video System video * Out Run/Y-board sprite alignment * GIC video hookup * Amstrad CPC ROM box members * IQ151 ROM cart region * MSX cart IRQ callback resolution time * SMS passthrough control devices starting subslots I've smoke-tested several drivers, but I've probably missed something. Things I've missed will likely blow up spectacularly with failure to bind errors and the like. Let me know if there's more subtle breakage (could have happened in FM or Voodoo). And can everyone please, please try to keep stuff clean. In particular, please stop polluting the global namespace. Keep things out of headers that don't need to be there, and use things that can be scoped down rather than macros. It feels like an uphill battle trying to get this stuff under control while more of it's added. |

MAME
Build status for tiny build only, containing just core parts of project:
| OS/Compiler | Status |
|---|---|
| Linux GCC / OSX Clang |  |
| Windows MinGW |  |
Static analysis status for entire build (except for third-party parts of project):
What is MAME?
MAME originally stood for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator.
MAME's purpose is to preserve decades of software history. As electronic technology continues to rush forward, MAME prevents this important "vintage" software from being lost and forgotten. This is achieved by documenting the hardware and how it functions. The source code to MAME serves as this documentation. The fact that the software is usable serves primarily to validate the accuracy of the documentation (how else can you prove that you have recreated the hardware faithfully?). Over time, MAME absorbed the sister-project MESS (Multi Emulator Super System), so MAME now documents a wide variety of (mostly vintage) computers, video game consoles and calculators, in addition to the arcade video games that were its initial focus.
How to compile?
If you're on a *NIX or OSX system, it could be as easy as typing
make
for a MAME build,
make SUBTARGET=arcade
for an arcade-only build, or
make SUBTARGET=mess
for MESS build.
See the Compiling MAME page on our documentation site for more information, including prerequisites for Mac OS X and popular Linux distributions.
For recent versions of OSX you need to install Xcode including command-line tools and SDL 2.0.
For Windows users, we provide a ready-made build environment based on MinGW-w64.
Visual Studio builds are also possible, but you still need build environment based on MinGW-w64. In order to generate solution and project files just run:
make vs2015
or use this command to build it directly using msbuild
make vs2015 MSBUILD=1
Where can I find out more?
- Official MAME Development Team Site (includes binary downloads for MAME and MESS, wiki, forums, and more)
- Official MESS Wiki
- MAME Testers (official bug tracker for MAME and MESS)

Coding standard
MAME source code should be viewed and edited with your editor set to use four spaces per tab. Tabs are used for initial indentation of lines, with one tab used per indentation level. Spaces are used for other alignment within a line.
Some parts of the code follow Allman style; some parts of the code follow K&R style -- mostly depending on who wrote the original version. Above all else, be consistent with what you modify, and keep whitespace changes to a minimum when modifying existing source. For new code, the majority tends to prefer Allman style, so if you don't care much, use that.
All contributors need to either add a standard header for license info (on new files) or inform us of their wishes regarding which of the following licenses they would like their code to be made available under: the BSD-3-Clause license, the LGPL-2.1, or the GPL-2.0.

The MAME project as a whole is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License, version 2 or later (GPL-2.0+), since it contains code made available under multiple GPL-compatible licenses. A great majority of files (over 90% including core files) are under the BSD-3-Clause License and we would encourage new contributors to distribute files under this license.
