Version 0.0.2g of DSemu has been released

Thursday, 31st March 2005

It's high time I added at least a little SWI support to the ARM core. So, I've put in Div, Sqrt, SoftReset and VblankIntrWait. I dunno if it'll make any difference to making GBA or DS demos work, but it needs to be done either way.

 

I've been receiving comments recently that the compilation process for the emu is less than clean, generating a good wad of warnings. After many months, I finally took it upon myself to resolve the warnings. They turned out mostly to be simple casting requirements, and the occasional return without a value. I've patched all those up, and the compile process should be clean with no errors and no warnings.

I said I'd be picking up a config editor; well, I'm not. It turns out that Normmatt wrote the thing in Visual Basic, and pretty bad VB at that. Not much code I can use there, I'm afraid. I might get onto that myself at some point soon.

 

Regarding the CPU, I've finally decided to pick up the red lights on ARMwrestler and make 'em green. That involved fixing the flag setting code for a few of the Thumb ops, and implementing a good chunk of the enhanced DSP (in particular, short multiply and saturated addition). After all that, it does indeed mean that Wrestler green-lights fully, which is a good thing.
