performance as a result of this change. Do not panic; report issues to the
list in the short term and I will look into them. There are probably also
some details I forgot to mention. Please ask questions if anything is not
clear.
NOTE: This is a major internal change to the way devices are handled in
MAME. There is a small impact on drivers, but the bulk of the changes are
to the devices themselves. Full documentation on the new device handling
is in progress at http://mamedev.org/devwiki/index.php/MAME_Device_Basics
Defined two new casting helpers: [Aaron Giles]
downcast<type>(value) should be used for safe and efficient downcasting
from a base class to a derived class. It wraps static_cast<> by adding
an assert that a matching dynamic_cast<> returns the same result in
debug builds.
crosscast<type>(value) should be used for safe casting from one type to
another in multiple inheritance scenarios. It compiles to a
dynamic_cast<> plus an assert on the result. Since it does not optimize
down to static_cast<>, you should prefer downcast<> over crosscast<>
when you can.
Redefined running_device to be a proper C++ class (now called device_t).
Same for device_config (still called device_config). All devices and
device_configs must now be derived from these base classes. This means
each device type now has a pair of its own unique classes that describe
the device. Drivers are encouraged to use the specific device types
instead of the generic running_device or device_t classes. Drivers that
have a state class defined in their header file are encouraged to use
initializers off the constructor to locate devices. [Aaron Giles]
Removed the following fields from the device and device configuration
classes as they never were necessary or provided any use: device class,
device family, source file, version, credits. [Aaron Giles]
Added templatized variant of machine->device() which performs a downcast
as part of the device fetch. Thus machine->device<timer_device>("timer")
will locate a device named "timer", downcast it to a timer_device, and
assert if the downcast fails. [Aaron Giles]
Removed most publically accessible members of running_device/device_t in
favor of inline accessor functions. The only remaining public member is
machine. Thus all references to device->type are now device->type(), etc.
[Aaron Giles]
Created a number of device interface classes which are designed to be mix-
ins for the device classes, providing specific extended functionality and
information. There are standard interface classes for sound, execution,
state, nvram, memory, and disassembly. Devices can opt into 0 or more of
these classes. [Aaron Giles]
Converted the classic CPU device to a standard device that uses the
execution, state, memory, and disassembly interfaces. Used this new class
(cpu_device) to implement the existing CPU device interface. In the future
it will be possible to convert each CPU core to its own device type, but
for now they are still all CPU devices with a cpu_type() that specifies
exactly which kind of CPU. [Aaron Giles]
Created a new header devlegcy.h which wraps the old device interface using
some special template classes. To use these with an existing device,
simply remove from the device header the DEVICE_GET_INFO() declaration and
the #define mapping the ALL_CAPS name to the DEVICE_GET_INFO. In their
place #include "devlegcy.h" and use the DECLARE_LEGACY_DEVICE() macro.
In addition, there is a DECLARE_LEGACY_SOUND_DEVICE() macro for wrapping
existing sound devices into new-style devices, and a
DECLARE_LEGACY_NVRAM_DEVICE() for wrapping NVRAM devices. Also moved the
token and inline_config members to the legacy device class, as these are
not used in modern devices. [Aaron Giles]
Converted the standard base devices (VIDEO_SCREEN, SPEAKER, and TIMER)
from legacy devices to the new C++ style. Also renamed VIDEO_SCREEN to
simply SCREEN. The various global functions that were previously used to
access information or modify the state of these devices are now replaced
by methods on the device classes. Specifically:
video_screen_configure() == screen->configure()
video_screen_set_visarea() == screen->set_visible_area()
video_screen_update_partial() == screen->update_partial()
video_screen_update_now() == screen->update_now()
video_screen_get_vpos() == screen->vpos()
video_screen_get_hpos() == screen->hpos()
video_screen_get_vblank() == screen->vblank()
video_screen_get_hblank() == screen->hblank()
video_screen_get_width() == screen->width()
video_screen_get_height() == screen->height()
video_screen_get_visible_area() == screen->visible_area()
video_screen_get_time_until_pos() == screen->time_until_pos()
video_screen_get_time_until_vblank_start() ==
screen->time_until_vblank_start()
video_screen_get_time_until_vblank_end() ==
screen->time_until_vblank_end()
video_screen_get_time_until_update() == screen->time_until_update()
video_screen_get_scan_period() == screen->scan_period()
video_screen_get_frame_period() == screen->frame_period()
video_screen_get_frame_number() == screen->frame_number()
timer_device_adjust_oneshot() == timer->adjust()
timer_device_adjust_periodic() == timer->adjust()
timer_device_reset() == timer->reset()
timer_device_enable() == timer->enable()
timer_device_enabled() == timer->enabled()
timer_device_get_param() == timer->param()
timer_device_set_param() == timer->set_param()
timer_device_get_ptr() == timer->get_ptr()
timer_device_set_ptr() == timer->set_ptr()
timer_device_timeelapsed() == timer->time_elapsed()
timer_device_timeleft() == timer->time_left()
timer_device_starttime() == timer->start_time()
timer_device_firetime() == timer->fire_time()
Updated all drivers that use the above functions to fetch the specific
device type (timer_device or screen_device) and call the appropriate
method. [Aaron Giles]
Changed machine->primary_screen and the 'screen' parameter to VIDEO_UPDATE
to specifically pass in a screen_device object. [Aaron Giles]
Defined a new custom interface for the Z80 daisy chain. This interface
behaves like the standard interfaces, and can be added to any device that
implements the Z80 daisy chain behavior. Converted all existing Z80 daisy
chain devices to new-style devices that inherit this interface.
[Aaron Giles]
Changed the way CPU state tables are built up. Previously, these were data
structures defined by a CPU core which described all the registers and how
to output them. This functionality is now part of the state interface and
is implemented via the device_state_entry class. Updated all CPU cores
which were using the old data structure to use the new form. The syntax is
currently awkward, but will be cleaner for CPUs that are native new
devices. [Aaron Giles]
Converted the okim6295 and eeprom devices to the new model. These were
necessary because they both require multiple interfaces to operate and it
didn't make sense to create legacy device templates for these single cases.
(okim6295 needs the sound interface and the memory interface, while eeprom
requires both the nvram and memory interfaces). [Aaron Giles]
Changed parameters in a few callback functions from pointers to references
in situations where they are guaranteed to never be NULL. [Aaron Giles]
Removed MDRV_CPU_FLAGS() which was only used for disabling a CPU. Changed
it to MDRV_DEVICE_DISABLE() instead. Updated drivers. [Aaron Giles]
Reorganized the token parsing for machine configurations. The core parsing
code knows how to create/replace/remove devices, but all device token
parsing is now handled in the device_config class, which in turn will make
use of any interface classes or device-specific token handling for custom
token processing. [Aaron Giles]
Moved many validity checks out of validity.c and into the device interface
classes. For example, address space validation is now part of the memory
interface class. [Aaron Giles]
Consolidated address space parameters (bus width, endianness, etc.) into
a single address_space_config class. Updated all code that queried for
address space parameters to use the new mechanism. [Aaron Giles]

Added inline tag() function to return a const char * version. Updated
callers to use this instead of directly accessing tag.cstr() which
was awkward.

is now separate from runtime device state. I have larger plans
for devices, so there is some temporary scaffolding to hold
everything together, but this first step does separate things
out.
There is a new class 'running_device' which represents the
state of a live device. A list of these running_devices sits
in machine->devicelist and is created when a running_machine
is instantiated.
To access the configuration state, use device->baseconfig()
which returns a reference to the configuration.
The list of running_devices in machine->devicelist has a 1:1
correspondance with the list of device configurations in
machine->config->devicelist, and most navigation options work
equally on either (scanning by class, type, etc.)
For the most part, drivers will now deal with running_device
objects instead of const device_config objects. In fact, in
order to do this patch, I did the following global search &
replace:
const device_config -> running_device
device->static_config -> device->baseconfig().static_config
device->inline_config -> device->baseconfig().inline_config
and then fixed up the compiler errors that fell out.
Some specifics:
Removed device_get_info_* functions and replaced them with
methods called get_config_*.
Added methods for get_runtime_* to access runtime state from
the running_device.
DEVICE_GET_INFO callbacks are only passed a device_config *.
This means they have no access to the token or runtime state
at all. For most cases this is fine.
Added new DEVICE_GET_RUNTIME_INFO callback that is passed
the running_device for accessing data that is live at runtime.
In the future this will go away to make room for a cleaner
mechanism.
Cleaned up the handoff of memory regions from the memory
subsystem to the devices.

along with a tagmap. Changed memory regions, input ports, and devices
to use this class. For devices, converted typenext and classnext
fields into methods which dynamically search for the next item.
Changed a number of macros to use the features of the class, removing
the need for a bunch of helper functions.

- Created new central header "emu.h"; this should be included
by pretty much any driver or device as the first include. This
file in turn includes pretty much everything a driver or device
will need, minus any other devices it references. Note that
emu.h should *never* be included by another header file.
- Updated all files in the core (src/emu) to use emu.h.
- Removed a ton of redundant and poorly-tracked header includes
from within other header files.
- Temporarily changed driver.h to map to emu.h until we update
files outside of the core.
Added class wrapper around tagmap so it can be directly included
and accessed within objects that need it. Updated all users to
embed tagmap objects and changed them to call through the class.
Added nicer functions for finding devices, ports, and regions in
a machine:
machine->device("tag") -- return the named device, or NULL
machine->port("tag") -- return the named port, or NULL
machine->region("tag"[, &length[, &flags]]) -- return the
named region and optionally its length and flags
Made the device tag an astring. This required touching a lot of
code that printed the device to explicitly fetch the C-string
from it. (Thank you gcc for flagging that issue!)

useable as a stack object. Also designed the interfaces to allow
for chaining operations. And added a casting operator to const
char * for seamless use in most functions that take plain old C
strings.
Changed all uses of astring to use the object directly on the
stack or embedded in objects instead of explicitly allocating
and deallocating it. Removed a lot of annoying memory management
code as a result.
Changed interfaces that accepted/returned an astring * to
use an astring & instead.
Removed auto_alloc_astring(machine). Use
auto_alloc(machine, astring) instead.

Removed a number of extraneous sign extensions from the RSP DRC.

|
|
|

Updated device and input port lists to use the tagmap for
tag searches. Also removed the whole "quark" thing from the
validity checker in favor of using the tagmaps.

inlining the check to see if it is running. Removed obsolete entries
and updated the text to more accurately describe each one. Added CPU
tags to the CPU names. Switched to using an astring for building the
final string.
Unfortunately, still a bit too much overhead to leave it on in all builds.

Subject: Machine -> machine
This is a big patch adding running_machine* parameters and using
"machine" where available.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
All callers that used 0 for the screen number now use machine->primary_screen
As a gap meassure, Where necessary, create a parallel set of video_screen_*_scrnum functions that take scrnum
All callers that specified a specific screen number now call the *_scrnum versions
Changed game info screen and overlay UI to display the screen tag instead of screen number

'frame_period'
Changes all drivers that previously accessed 'refresh' to use video_screen_get_frame_period()

below)
The idea is to create extra work if a driver wants to use these and hopefully
gives an incentive to look for an alternate solution
- Added #include of deprecat.h that rely on these contructs
- Removed a bunch of unneccassary #include's from these files
|
|
|
|
|
|

- removed years from copyright notices
- removed redundant (c) from copyright notices
- updated "the MAME Team" to be "Nicola Salmoria and the MAME Team"
