Update to 20180729 release.
byuu wrote: Sigh ... asio.hpp needs #include <nall/windows/registry.hpp> [Since the last WIP, byuu also posted the following message. -Ed.] ruby drivers have all been updated (but not tested outside of BSD), and I redesigned the settings window. The driver functionality all exists on a new "Drivers" panel, the emulator/hack settings go to a "Configuration" panel, and the video/audio panels lose driver settings. As does the settings menu and its synchronize options. I want to start pushing toward a v107 release. Critically, I will need DirectSound and ALSA to support dynamic rate control. I'd also like to eliminate the other system manifest.bml files. I need to update the cheat code database format, and bundle at least a few quark shaders -- although I still need to default to Direct3D on Windows. Turbo keys would be nice, if it's not too much effort. Aside from netplay, it's the last significant feature I'm missing. I think for v107, higan is going to be a bit rough around the edges compared to bsnes. And I don't think it's practical to finish the bsnes localization support. I'm thinking we probably want another WIP to iron out any critical issues, but this time there should be a feature freeze with the next WIP. |

Update to v106r47 release.
byuu says:
This is probably the largest code-change diff I've done in years.
I spent four days working 10-16 hours a day reworking layouts in hiro
completely.
The result is we now have TableLayout, which will allow for better
horizontal+vertical combined alignment.
Windows, GTK2, and now GTK3 are fully supported.
Windows is getting the initial window geometry wrong by a bit.
GTK2 and GTK3 work perfectly. I basically abandoned trying to detect
resize signals, and instead keep a list of all hiro windows that are
allocated, and every time the main loop runs, it will query all of them
to see if they've been resized. I'm disgusted that I have to do this,
but after fighting with GTK for years, I'm about sick of it. GTK was
doing this crazy thing where it would trigger another size-allocate
inside of a previous size-allocate, and so my layouts would be halfway
through resizing all the widgets, and then the size-allocate would kick
off another one. That would end up leaving the rest of the first layout
loop with bad widget sizes. And if I detected a second re-entry and
blocked it, then the entire window would end up with the older geometry.
I started trying to build a message queue system to allow the second
layout resize to occur after the first one completed, but this was just
too much madness, so I went with the simpler solution.
Qt4 has some geometry problems, and doesn't show tab frame layouts
properly yet.
Qt5 causes an ICE error and tanks my entire Xorg display server, so ...
something is seriously wrong there, and it's not hiro's fault. Creating
a dummy Qt5 application without even using hiro, just int main() {
TestObject object; } with object performing a dynamic\_cast to a derived
type segfaults. Memory is getting corrupted where GCC allocates the
vtables for classes, just by linking in Qt. Could be somehow related to
the -fPIC requirement that only Qt5 has ... could just be that FreeBSD
10.1 has a buggy implementation of Qt5. I don't know. It's beyond my
ability to debug, so this one's going to stay broken.
The Cocoa port is busted. I'll fix it up to compile again, but that's
about all I'm going to do.
Many optimizations mean bsnes and higan open faster. GTK2 and GTK3 both
resize windows very quickly now.
higan crashes when you load a game, so that's not good. bsnes works
though.
bsnes also has the start of a localization engine now. Still a long way
to go.
The makefiles received a rather substantial restructuring. Including the
ruby and hiro makefiles will add the necessary compilation rules for
you, which also means that moc will run for the qt4 and qt5 targets, and
windres will run for the Windows targets.

Update to v104r13 release.
byuu says:
Changelog:
- nall/GNUmakefile: build=release changed to -O2, build=optimize is
now -O3
- hiro: added Monitor::dpi(uint index) → Position [returns logical
DPI for x, y]
- Position is a bad name, but dpi(monitor).(x,y)() make more sense
than .(width,height)()
- hiro: Position, Size, Geometry, Font changed from using signed int
to float
- hiro: Alignment changed from using double to float
- hiro: added skeleton (unused) Application::scale(), setScale()
functions
Errata:
- hiro/cocoa's Monitor::dpi() is untested. Probably will cause issues
with macOS' automatic scaling.
- hiro/gtk lacks a way to get both per-monitor and per-axis (x,y) DPI
scaling
- hiro/qt lacks a way to get per-monitor DPI scaling (Qt 5.x has this,
but I still use Qt 4.x)
- and just to get global DPI, hiro/qt's DPI retrieval has to use
undocumented functions ... fun
The goal with this WIP was basically to prepare hiro for potential
automatic scaling. It'll be extremely difficult, but I'm convinced that
it must be possible if macOS can do it.
By moving from signed integers to floats for coordinates, we can now
scale and unscale without losing precision. That of course isn't the
hard part, though. The hard part is where and how to do the scaling. In
the ideal application, hiro/core and hiro/extension will handle 100% of
this, and the per-platform hiro/(cocoa,gtk,qt,windows) will not be aware
of what's going on, but ... to even make that possible, things will need
to change in every per-platform core, eg the per-platform code will have
to call a core function to change geometry, which will know about the
scaling and unscale the values back down again.
Gonna be a lot of work, but ... it's a start.

Update to v094r43 release.
byuu says:
Updated to compile with all of the new hiro changes. My next step is to
write up hiro API documentation, and move the API from alpha (constantly
changing) to beta (rarely changing), in preparation for the first stable
release (backward-compatible changes only.)
Added "--fullscreen" command-line option. I like this over
a configuration file option. Lets you use the emulator in both modes
without having to modify the config file each time.
Also enhanced the command-line game loading. You can now use any of
these methods:
higan /path/to/game-folder.sfc
higan /path/to/game-folder.sfc/
higan /path/to/game-folder.sfc/program.rom
The idea is to support launchers that insist on loading files only.
Technically, the file can be any name (manifest.bml also works); the
only criteria is that the file actually exists and is a file, and not
a directory. This is a requirement to support the first version (a
directory lacking the trailing / identifier), because I don't want my
nall::string class to query the file system to determine if the string
is an actual existing file or directory for its pathname() / dirname()
functions.
Anyway, every game folder I've made so far has program.rom, and that's
very unlikely to change, so this should be fine.
Now, of course, if you drop a regular "game.sfc" file on the emulator,
it won't even try to load it, unless it's in a folder that ends in .fc,
.sfc, etc. In which case, it'll bail out immediately by being unable to
produce a manifest for what is obviously not really a game folder.

Update to v094r25 release.
byuu says: Windows port should run mostly well now, although exiting fullscreen breaks the application in a really bizarre way. (clicking on the window makes it sink to background rather than come to the foreground o_O) I also need to add the doModalChange => audio.clear() thing for the accursed menu stuttering with DirectSound. I also finished porting all of the ruby drivers over to the newer API changes from nall. Since I can't compile the Linux or OS X drivers, I have no idea if there are any typos that will result in compilation errors. If so, please let me know where they're at and I'll try and fix them. If they're simple, please try and fix them on your end to test further if you can. I'm hopeful the udev crash will be gone now that nall::string checks for null char* values passed to its stringify function. Of course, it's a problem it's getting a null value in the first place, so it may not work at all. If you can compile on Linux (or by some miracle, OS X), please test each video/audio/input driver if you don't mind, to make sure there's no "compiles okay but still typos exist" bugs. |

Update to v094r20 release.
byuu says: Main reason for this WIP was because of all the added lines to hiro for selective component disabling. May as well get all the diff-noise apart from code changes. It also merges something I've been talking to Cydrak about ... making nall::string::(integer,decimal) do built-in binary,octal,hex decoding instead of just failing on those. This will have fun little side effects all over the place, like being able to view a topic on my forum via "forum.byuu.org/topic/0b10010110", heh. There are two small changes to higan itself, though. First up, I fixed the resampler ratio when loading non-SNES games. Tested and I can play Game Boy games fine now. Second, I hooked up menu option hiding for reset and controller selection. Right now, this works like higan v094, but I'm thinking I might want to show the "Device -> Controller" even if that's all that's there. It kind of jives nicer with the input settings window to see the labels there, I think. And if we ever do add more stuff, it'll be nice that people already always expect that menu there. Remaining issues: * add slotted cart loader (SGB, BSX, ST) * add DIP switch selection window (NSS) * add timing configuration (video/audio sync) |

Update to v094r09 release.
byuu says: This will easily be the biggest diff in the history of higan. And not in a good way. * target-higan and target-loki have been blown away completely * nall and ruby massively updated * phoenix replaced with hiro (pretty near a total rewrite) * target-higan restarted using hiro (just a window for now) * all emulation cores updated to compile again * installation changed to not require root privileges (installs locally) For the foreseeable future (maybe even permanently?), the new higan UI will only build under Linux/BSD with GTK+ 2.20+. Probably the most likely route for Windows/OS X will be to try and figure out how to build hiro/GTK on those platforms, as awful as that would be. The other alternative would be to produce new UIs for those platforms ... which would actually be a good opportunity to make something much more user friendly. Being that I just started on this a few hours ago, that means that for at least a few weeks, don't expect to be able to actually play any games. Right now, you can pretty much just compile the binary and that's it. It's quite possible that some nall changes didn't produce compilation errors, but will produce runtime errors. So until the UI can actually load games, we won't know if anything is broken. But we should mostly be okay. It was mostly just trim<1> -> trim changes, moving to Hash::SHA256 (much cleaner), and patching some reckless memory copy functions enough to compile. Progress isn't going to be like it was before: I'm now dividing my time much thinner between studying and other hobbies. My aim this time is not to produce a binary for everyone to play games on. Rather, it's to keep the emulator alive. I want to be able to apply critical patches again. And I would also like the base of the emulator to live on, for use in other emulator frontends that utilize higan. |
