DeSmuME
DeSmuME is written in C++ using the GTK+ and SDL2 libraries.
* https://gtk.org/
* https://libsdl.org/
It uses the Meson build system to build the GTK+3 and SDL2 port:
* https://mesonbuild.com/
... and the autotools build system for the GTK+2 and SDL2 port.
to build GTK+2 or SDL2 frontend with autotools, cd to src/frontend/posix, then
autoreconf -i (or alternatively: ./autogen.sh)
./configure
make -jN (where N is the number of CPU cores to use).
DeSmuME provides another interface based on libglade, to use
, you'll need glade:
* http://glade.gnome.org/
To build, first cd to src/frontend/posix and run
`meson build --buildtype=release`
Then build the program by running `ninja -C build`
It will generate three programs:
1) "desmume" in the "build/gtk" directory;
2) "desmume-cli" in the "build/cli" directory.
If glade is installed on your system, you'll get a third
binary:
3) "desmume-glade" in the "build/gtk-glade" directory.
You can even type "ninja -C build install" to install those programs on
your system (in /usr/local/ by default); then uninstalling is
done by typing "ninja -C build uninstall".
For more information on the available commandline options,
check the other README files which will be more up to date.
The following options specially are available on these posix ports:
--disable-limiter Disables the 60 fps limiter
--soft-convert Use software colour conversion during OpenGL
screen rendering. May produce better or worse
frame rates depending on hardware.
The following options specially are available on the Gtk+ port:
--opengl-2d Enables using OpenGL for screen rendering
--disable-sound Disables the sound emulation
--disable-3d Disables the 3D emulation
The following options specially are available on the CLI port:
--opengl-2d Enables using OpenGL for screen rendering
--disable-sound Disables the sound emulation
NOTE:
The Gtk+ and Glade builds use gtkGLext to handle the OpenGL
rendering and contexts. You may get improved performance by
also passing the argument --gdk-gl-force-indirect. This has
been seen to improve things for Nvidia based graphics cards
under Linux.
