bsnes source code
|
||||
=================
|
||||
|
||||
A guide to what all these directories are for:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Database](./Database/)
|
||||
contains the databases bsnes uses
|
||||
to figure out what circuit board a game expects,
|
||||
and also the database of pre-made game cheats
|
||||
- [emulator](./emulator/)
|
||||
contains the interface
|
||||
that the emulation core in [sfc](./sfc/) implements
|
||||
- It comes from higan v106,
|
||||
which has many emulation cores
|
||||
that all implement the same interface —
|
||||
bsnes only has one,
|
||||
but the interface is still a good abstraction,
|
||||
so it's still here.
|
||||
- [filter](./filter/)
|
||||
contains classic CPU-based image upscaling filters,
|
||||
like HQ2x and Super Eagle
|
||||
- [gb](./gb/)
|
||||
contains the SameBoy emulator code
|
||||
used for Super Game Boy emulation
|
||||
- [heuristics](./heuristics/)
|
||||
contains the logic that guesses
|
||||
which memory map a particular game expects
|
||||
and what extra hardware it assumes is present,
|
||||
when a game cannot be found in the database
|
||||
- [Locale](./Locale/)
|
||||
contains translation databases
|
||||
that bsnes can use to display its user interface
|
||||
in a different language
|
||||
- [lzma](./lzma/)
|
||||
contains the 7-Zip SDK
|
||||
allowing bsnes to understad `.7z` archives
|
||||
- [processor](./processor/)
|
||||
contains all the CPU emulation cores
|
||||
used by the hardware bsnes emulates
|
||||
- Another holdover from higan v106,
|
||||
where different supported systems
|
||||
happen to use the same model CPU,
|
||||
so the CPU emulation cores
|
||||
are not specific to a system
|
||||
- [sfc](./sfc/)
|
||||
contains Super Famicom (SNES) emulation code
|
||||
- [target-bsnes](./target-bsnes/)
|
||||
contains the normal bsnes user interface
|
||||
- [target-libretro](./target-libretro/)
|
||||
implements the "libretro" API
|
||||
on top of bsnes' native
|
||||
[emulator](./emulator/) API,
|
||||
so bsnes can be used with libretro-based frontends

bsnes user interface
|
||||
====================
|
||||
|
||||
This directory contains the code for
|
||||
the normal bsnes user interface.
|
||||
|
||||
- [bsnes.cpp](./bsnes.cpp)
|
||||
contains the `nall::main()` entry point
|
||||
- [input](./input/)
|
||||
contains the glue logic
|
||||
that maps incoming controller inputs
|
||||
into emulated controller inputs and hotkey signals
|
||||
- [presentation](./presentation/)
|
||||
contains the code that sets up the main window
|
||||
(menu bar, status bar, etc.)
|
||||
- [program](./program/)
|
||||
contains the glue logic
|
||||
that connects the UI to the emulation core,
|
||||
generating manifests,
|
||||
loading games,
|
||||
displaying video and playing audio, etc.
|
||||
- [resource](./resource/)
|
||||
contains all the data bsnes uses at runtime,
|
||||
like icons,
|
||||
the about box logos,
|
||||
the SNES board database
|
||||
- [settings](./settings/)
|
||||
contains Settings window stuff
|
||||
- [tools](./tools/)
|
||||
contains Tools window stuff
|
||||
