Quick usage

Compiled versions for Windows and Linux are available at https://github.com/Yamakaky/dcpu/releases/. No dependencies are required.

Note: the Windows version of the emulation currently fails with an OpenGL error. If anyone knows why...

All binaries support a --help flag for more infos.

Building

You need to install the rust compiler to build this software.

# cargo run --release --bin <bin> -- <bin-args>

Available binaries are assembler, disassembler, emulator and sprite.

Some features are only available on Rust nightly. To enable them, install Rust nightly then run;

# cargo run --release --features nightly --bin ...

Build features

The following build features are available ([x] means "enabled by default"):

  • bins: only useful to build the binaries, should be disabled for the library.
  • debugger-cli: command line parsing for the debugger, should also be disabled for the library.
  • glium: OpenGL backend for the lem1802 + keyboard, can be useful in the library.
  • nightly: implementation of serde::{Serialize, Deserialize} for some of the types. Requires Rust nightly.

Build the C library

To build a dynamic library (.so):

# cargo rustc --lib --no-default-features -- --crate-type=dylib

To build a static library (.a):

# cargo rustc --lib --no-default-features -- --crate-type=staticlib

See src/c_api.h for the available functions.

Convert images to LEM format

The sprite utility can:

  • Convert a font image (--font-file) and a palette image (--palette-file) to a LEM1802-compatible format, either binary or hexadecimal
  • Convert an image (--image) to VRam + font + palette

Documentation

The library interface is documented here.
