- Short: IXemul 41.4 - 68020+68881 library
- Author: various
- Uploader: fnf@amigalib.com
- Type: dev/gcc
-
- This is ixemul.library release 41.4, which represents a partial merging
- of features from various previous releases as well as bug fixing.
- Merging work is still underway, so expect future releases to occur at
- frequent intervals.
-
- Changes for this release include:
-
- Integrated patches from Hans Verkuil that fix CTRL-C
- handling, fix another signal bug, fix problem with "rm
- -f", prepare for proper timezone handling, and remove
- '@' hack in argument parsing.
-
- Applied patch from Kamil Iskra to avoid incompatibility
- between ixemul and the popular KingCON 1.3. This is
- KingCON's fault because it makes invalid assumptions
- about the nature of reply port contained in "dp_Port"
- of packets sent to it. Also applied patch (duplicated
- in Han's patches) to crt0.c that fixes bug where the
- revision requester was not working properly if the
- current revision is 0.
-
- Applied patch from Rask Lambertsen (duplicated in Han's
- patches) that makes ixemul.library open "CONSOLE:"
- instead of "*".
-
- Added implementation from Kriton Kyrimis for srand48,
- seed48, lcong48, lrand48, nrand48, mrand48, jrand48,
- drand48, and erand48.
-
- Added "#include <sys/types.h>" to <dirent.h> to be more
- compatible with most current systems that do this
- inclusion for you. This change should be backwards
- compatible with code that does the inclusion
- explicitly. Suggested by Lars Hecking.
-
- Changed prototype in <unistd.h> for getpgrp() to take a
- pid_t argument, which matches the implementation in
- library/getcrap.c. Suggested by Lars Hecking.
-
- Made change to <math-68881.h> in pow() so that if x<0
- the code does log(-x) rather than log(x). Suggested by
- Thomas Radtke and implemented by Lars Hecking.
-
- Disable definitions of F_GETLK, F_SETLK, F_SETLKW,
- F_RDLCK, F_UNLCK, and F_WRLCK in <fcntl.h> since they
- are unimplemented and thus might have misled
- autoconfiguration schemes into thinking they were
- available. Also fix ixtrace.c so it will still compile
- without these defined. Suggested by Robert Ramiega.
-
- Integrated patch from joop van de wege (duplicated in
- Han's patches) for setting up fpu on 68060.
-
- The release consists of several archives as follows:
-
- ixemulXXYY-bin.lha utils for gnu/bin, like ixtrace and ixconfig
-
- ixemulXXYY-sdk.lha files needed to build apps using ixemul.library
-
- ixemulXXYY-doc.lha various documentation, such as this file
-
- ixemulXXYY-src.lha Complete source code for ixemul library
-
- ixemulXXYY-CF.lha Specific flavors of the library, where 'C'
- is one of 0, 2, 3, or 4, for 68000, 68020,
- 68030, and 68040 respectively, and 'F' is either
- 'f' or 's' for FPU support or soft floating point
- respectively.
-
- For additional information, see the NEWS, INSTALL, README and TODO files.
