TargetD64 Changes for V0.3.0

List of Changes
 

• Introduced a profile (INI-file) which should make configuration easier (no more environment variable magic).
• Support for non standard D64 images (175531, 196608, 197376 bytes).
• Combined generic archive interface and external helper mode (option -x removed). Now builtins can be specifically overwritten.
• Corrected unique filename generation (so files do not overwrite each other when having same name).

PRODUCT_____: TargetD64
COMPONENT___: Manual
VERSION_____: V0.2
FIXED_VERS__: V0.3
OS__________: All
ORIGINATOR__: Michael Penzkofer
TYPE________: Bug report
STATE_______: Closed
SEVERITY____: Low
DATE________: 28.04.99
SUBJECT_____: Wrong version of C64S mentioned
DETAILS_____:
The manual mentions emulator C64S V2.25 which has never been available.
ANALYSIS____:
The correct C64S version is V2.52. All testing took place with this version.
CONCLUSION__:
Correct it.

RQID________: 21
PRODUCT_____: TargetD64
COMPONENT___: Executable
VERSION_____: V0.2
FIXED_VERS__: V0.3
OS__________: Win32
ORIGINATOR__: J-Man Th' Shaman
TYPE________: Bug report
STATE_______: Closed
SEVERITY____: Medium
DATE________: 09.09.99
SUBJECT_____: D64 images with size not equal 174848 bytes are rejected
DETAILS_____:
D64 images may additionally contain error information and/or Tracks 36-40.
ANALYSIS____:
35 tracks (without error info) results in 174848 bytes.
35 tracks + error info results in 175531 bytes.
40 tracks (without error info) results in 196608 bytes.
40 tracks + error info results in 197376 bytes.
Until now only first case is supported.
CONCLUSION__:
Generalize class CFDiskImage.

SUBJECT_____: There is no configuration for WinVICE
DETAILS_____:
There is no configuration available for WinVICE which gains more and more importance.
ANALYSIS____:
Configuration can be achieved by standard means.
CONCLUSION__:
Provide Z-Man Th' Shaman's configuration. He managed the adaption. Add it to profile.

DETAILS_____:
Compiler gives error:

ANALYSIS____:
1: <stdio.h> not included. Maybe egcs 1.0.1 includes <stdio.h> by default.
2: Keyword typename is necessary in template method definition to indicate that vector<T>::size_type is a type (with T is template parameter).
CONCLUSION__:
Correct it.

TYPE________: Bug report
STATE_______: Closed
SEVERITY____: Medium
DATE________: 11.10.99
SUBJECT_____: Empty D64 images are rejected
DETAILS_____:
Sometimes games use direct disk access on a customized file system. Those images may not have a single file entry within the directory track. TargetD64 does not pass those archives to the emulator as they are assumed to not carry information
ANALYSIS____:
Seemingly empty archives must be passed to emulator, too.
CONCLUSION__:
Correct it.

SEVERITY____: Medium
DATE________: 11.10.99
SUBJECT_____: Use of shell variables in configured commands does not work
DETAILS_____:
When using a shell variable in configuration strings (i.e. TD64_EMU_CMD) the variable is not evaluated at execution time.
ANALYSIS____:
For Win32 any commands defined for TargetD64 are written into a batchfile. This batchfile is executed. In a batchfile % characters must be quoted by a percent character so that the following characters are not interpreted as a shell variable name. This is for example important when having a filename like a%b.lnx. This must appear like a%%b.lnx in the batchfile. Right now any appearance of % is doubled. This will make any shell variable access impossible.
CONCLUSION__:
Only quote percent characters in replacement strings. Static parts of the command are not considered.
