## Structure
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are 3 projects
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* libapple: the core emulator files
|
|
|
|
|
* applen: a frontend based on ncurses
|
|
|
|
|
* qapple: Qt frontend
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
The libapple interface is a *link time* interface: some functions are not defined and must be provided in order to properly link
|

|
|
|
the application. These functions are listed in [interface.h](source/linux/interface.h).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The main goal is to reuse the AppleWin source files without changes: only where really necessary the AppleWin source files have
|
|
|
|
|
been modified, mostly for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* header files issues
|
|
|
|
|
* const char *
|
|
|
|
|
* STL constructor issues (see Disk_t and HDD)
|
|
|
|
|
* exclude some Windows heavy blocks (source/MouseInterface.cpp)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## What works
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some key files have been completely reimplemented or discarded:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* AppleWin.cpp
|
|
|
|
|
* Video.cpp
|
|
|
|
|
* Frame.cpp
|
|
|
|
|
* NTSC.cpp
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some features totally ignored:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* NSTC colors
|
|
|
|
|
* ethernet
|
|
|
|
|
* serial port
|
|
|
|
|
* sound
|
|
|
|
|
* debugger
|
|
|
|
|
* speech
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The rest is in a usable state.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### applen
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Frontend based on ncurses, with a ASCII art graphic mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Keyboard shortcuts
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* F2: terminate emulator
|
|
|
|
|
* F12: Load Snapshot
|

|
|
|
* ALT-RIGHT: wider hi res graphis
|
|
|
|
|
* ALT-LEFT: narrower hi res graphics
|
|
|
|
|
* ALT-UP: vertical hi res (smaller)
|
|
|
|
|
* ALT-DOWN: vertical hires (bigger)
|

|
|
|
In order to properly appreciate the wider hi res graphics, open a big terminal window and choose a small font size.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The joystick uses evdev (currently the device name is hardcoded).

### qapple
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is based on Qt, currently tested with 5.10
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* keyboard shortcuts are listed in the menu entries
|
|
|
|
|
* graphics: code borrowed from linapple, no NTSC color
|
|
|
|
|
* lo res in color
|
|
|
|
|
* hi res in BW
|
|
|
|
|
* joystick: it uses QtGamepad (correct names will only be displayed with 5.11)
|
|
|
|
|
* emulator runs in the main UI thread
|
|
|
|
|
* Qt timers are very coarse: the emulator needs to dynamically adapt the cycles to execute
|
|
|
|
|
* full speed when disk spins execute up to 5 ms real wall clock of emulator code (then returns to Qt)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Build
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The project can be built using cmake.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
qapple can be managed from Qt Creator as well and the 2 have coexisted so far, but YMMV.
