Fixed an annoying inconsistency between memory_share and memory_region: the width() method of the former returned the width in bits (8, 16, 32 or 64) while the width() method of the latter returned the width in bytes (1, 2, 4 or 8). Now both classes have a bitwidth() method and a bytewidth() method. Updated all callers to use whichever one was more appropriate. Removed the implicit-cast-to-any-integer-pointer ability of memory_regions, which was rather unsafe (if you weren't careful with your * operators and casts it was easy to accidentally get a pointer to the memory_region object itself instead of to the data, with no warning from the compiler... or at least I kept doing it) Updated all devices and drivers that were accessing regions that way to use a region_ptr_finder when possible, and otherwise to call base() explicitly. |

What is MAME?
MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator.
MAME's purpose is to preserve these decades of video-game history. As gaming technology continues to rush forward, MAME prevents these important "vintage" games 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 games are playable serves primarily to validate the accuracy of the documentation (how else can you prove that you have recreated the hardware faithfully)?
