Nouvelle grosse update.<\/p>\n
Source Changes Changed the MACHINE_DRIVER_* macros, as follows: [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n 1. Renamed MACHINE_DRIVER_* to MACHINE_CONFIG_* to match the name of 2. MACHINE_CONFIG_START() now takes a driver_data_t-derived class as a 3. New MACHINE_CONFIG_DERIVED() macro defines a machine_config that is 4. New MACHINE_CONFIG_FRAGMENT() macro defines a partial 5. Changed MDRV_IMPORT_FROM() to MDRV_FRAGMENT_ADD() to more 6. Added asserts to the above three macros to ensure they are properly Updated all machine drivers to use the new macros. Search & replace timer.c: timers get rescheduled only if enable state has changed bfm_dm01 improvements: replaced the video screen hack used for the aristmk4.c: Changed driver_data objects to be devices. Replaced the driver_data_t Moved core callbacks (machine_start\/_reset, sound_start\/_reset, 1. DRIVER_INIT function from the game driver Similarly, the driver_device class overrides device_reset() and then driver_reset() - new To accommodate these changes, initialization order is slightly altered Changed device_t::subtag to only prepend a prefix if the device is not Changed device startup to actively reorder devices when they report Remove artificial SOUND_ prefix from sound device names. [Atari Ace]<\/p>\n Converted sauro, scotrsht, segald, seicross, senjyo, shangha3, Added include files for all remaining drivers with multiple source Corrected or clarified a number of duplicated inputs for drivers up Changed driver_device to expose the game_driver's ROMs through the Changed all instances of temporarily allocating machine_config objects Changed machine_config constructor to take a game_driver, from which Changed running_machine constructor to no longer take a game_driver, Added two new template classes optional_device<> and Fix compiling on older GCCs (including OS X PowerPC) [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n Change shared memory regions to track their size. Added pipeline (pipeline.c) [stephh] : Added templates required_shared_ptr<> and optional_shared_ptr<> which Created a new generic NVRAM device.

[Pete Ogoun, Andrew Gardner]<\/p>\n Moved sound routing for non-speaker devices over to the sound Removed vestigial NVRAM from starwars, which is now covered by the CHDMAN: rewrote bin\/cue support from specs, more images now work. Removed generic.videoram and generic.videoram_size. These generics Added proper handling of the SRAM in Aristocrat MK-5 [Palindrome]<\/p>\n Removed usage of I2C in Aristocrat MK-5 [Angelo Salese]<\/p>\n Added -bench Added DECLARE\/DEFINE_TRIVIAL_DERIVED_DEVICE macros to simplify the Convert ADSP21xx core to a modern CPU device. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n On Windows, osd_break_into_debugger() will now dump a stack crawl if Replaced NVRAM_HANDLER in leland with an NVRAM device. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n ssv: Replaced largely redundant NVRAM handlers with NVRAM devices for Merged ssgbl.c into megadrvb.c and moved bootleg input definitions out Made the mc146818 a proper device, modernized it, and added an NVRAM Added definitions for [DECLARE_]READ_LINE_MEMBER and Added stubs and new macro DEVCB_DEVICE_LINE_MEMBER to allow these to Modernized the 6522 VIA device: [Aaron Giles] ssv: removed kludge for sprite x offset and implemented 1 bit of 7a-7b ssv: ssv: removed offset values from the init; the offset now are handled ssv: fixed bit #a of 7a-7b CRT register [Roberto Zandona']<\/p>\n Converted intelfsh to a device, updated all users.

\nclass with a new driver_device class, which is the base class for all
\ndriver_data objects now. The new driver devices are added as the first
\ndevice in the device list, with a tag of \"root\"; all other devices are
\nnow owned by the driver device. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nvideo_start\/_reset\/_eof\/_update, and palette_init) into device
\nconfiguration parameters on these new devices. The driver_device base
\nclass overrides device_start(), ensures all other devices have been
\nstarted, and then calls, in order, the following overridable methods:<\/p>\n
\n 2. palette_init() - by default calls the MDRV_PALETTE_INIT
\n function
\n 3. driver_start() - new
\n 4. machine_start() - by default calls the MDRV_MACHINE_START function
\n 5. sound_start() - by default calls the MDRV_SOUND_START function
\n 6. video_start() - by default calls the MDRV_VIDEO_START function<\/p>\n
\ncalls these methods in order:<\/p>\n
\n machine_reset() - by default calls the MDRV_MACHINE_RESET function
\n sound_reset() - by default calls the MDRV_SOUND_RESET function
\n video_reset() - by default calls the MDRV_VIDEO_RESET function<\/p>\n
\nfrom before. The tilemap, video, sound, and debug systems are now
\ninitialized prior to the devices' start. And the user callbacks for
\nDRIVER_INIT, PALETTE_INIT, MACHINE_START, SOUND_START, and VIDEO_START
\nare all called back-to-back. The net effect should be similar,
\nhowever. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nthe 'root' device, in order to keep compatibility with existing tag

\nmissing dependencies. This ensures that the reset functions get called
\nin the same order that the start functions did. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n

\ndevice interface. This means all ROMs are now exposed via devices, and
\nthus the process of enumerating ROMs gets simpler. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nto just put them on the stack for simplicity, letting the destructor
\nhandle the cleanup work automatically. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nthe machine_config constructor is obtained. This also means the
\nresulting machine_config holds a reference to the game_driver.
\n[Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nsince the game_driver is now obtainable via the machine_config.
\n[Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nrequired_device<>. Use these to declare the device pointers in the
\nclass. The only difference between the two is that required will
\nfatalerror if the device is not found. These new classes are \"pass-
\nthrough\" so the underlying pointer can be passed anywhere a regular
\ndevice pointer would work. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nmemory_get_shared() functions to retrieve a pointer to a shared region
\nand optionally the size. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\n * Fixed Dip Switches and Inputs (after verification of the Z80 code)<\/p>\n
\nwork just like required_device<> and optional_device<> for retrieving
\na pointer by tag from an address space that specifies AM_SHARE(\"tag\").
\nAlso added templates required_shared_size<> and optional_shared_size<>
\nfor retrieving the size of the AM_SHARE region. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\n0-fill, 1-fill, random-fill, or custom fill. In all cases, a
\nsame-named memory region overrides the default fill. The address range
\nwhere the NVRAM can be found is now identified by an AM_SHARE() region
\nof the same tag as the NVRAM device. Drivers can also explicitly
\nconfigure a separately-allocated NVRAM region via
\nnvram_device::set_base(). [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nMDRV_NVRAM_ADD_*(\"nvram\"). Replaced all
\nAM_BASE_GENERIC\/AM_SIZE_GENERIC(nvram) with AM_SHARE(\"nvram\"). For all
\nremaining drivers that referenced the generic.nvram directly, changed
\nthem to hold a required_shared_ptr
\nstate, and use that instead. Removed nvram and nvram_size from the
\ngeneric_ptrs. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\ndebugger do it. This allows the device to start itself up before the
\ndebugger tries to figure out what to do with it. Fixes the problem
\nwhere register names were not populated into the symbol table
\ncorrectly after I shuffled the initialization order. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nas well as several new bootlegs. [MetalliC]<\/p>\n
\nproperly. Hooked the correct TMS9980 CPU, added a preliminary memory
\nmap and some technical notes. [Roberto Fresca]<\/p>\n
\nModernized the code and updated so it actually works with the modern
\ndebug classes. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nnon-modern address map case so that updated devices can shed their
\nold-style read\/write handlers in favor of member functions.
\n[Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nmaps to call to the modern member functions. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\n * Improved Dip Switches and fixed Inputs (after verification of the
\n M68000 code)<\/p>\n
\nfor the common case where these are done outside the context of a read
\nor write handler (it was annoying to pass in the fake address space
\nfor these cases). [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nREAD8_MEMBER or WRITE8_MEMBER in a device callback (via dynamically
\ngenerated trampolines). [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nthe new methods, and removed the static functions. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n

\ndefinition of devices that are based off of a parent device, but which
\ndiffer in name and a single parameter. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n
\nthere's no debugger attached. This means that asserts should have a
\nfull crawl now, for easier debugging. [Aaron Giles]<\/p>\n

\nread_raw()\/write_raw() which do direct reads\/writes of the data.

\nflash pieces which are automatically loaded by the intelfsh device on
