Compiling ---- #### for Pandora `mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DPANDORA=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo; make` #### for Pyra `mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DPYRA=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo; make` #### for Gameshell `mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DGAMESHELL=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo; make` #### for Raspberry Pi _a build for model 2, 3 and 4 can be done. Model 1 and 0 cannot (at least not with Dynarec, as they lack NEON support)_ ``` git clone https://github.com/ptitSeb/box86 cd box86 mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DRPI4=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo make -j4 sudo make install sudo systemctl restart systemd-binfmt ``` _For Pi4. Change to RPI2 or RPI3 for other models. Change to RPI4ARM64 for compiling on arm64. (armhf multiarch or chroot required alongside armhf gcc. Install it with 'sudo apt install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf'.)_ #### for ODROID `mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DODROID=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo; make -j$(nproc)` #### for RK3399 `mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DRK3399=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo; make -j4` As most RK3399 device run AARCH64 OS, you'll need an `armhf` multiarch environment, and an armhf gcc: On debian, install it with `sudo apt install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf`. #### for Other ARM Linux platforms `mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DARM_DYNAREC=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo; make -j$(nproc)` #### for x86 Linux `mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DLD80BITS=1 -DNOALIGN=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo; make -j$(nproc)` #### use ccmake Alternatively, you can use the curses-bases ccmake (or any other gui frontend for cmake) to select wich platform to use interactively. #### Customize your build *use ccache if you have it* Add `-DUSE_CCACHE=1` if you have ccache (it's better if you plan to touch the sources) *have some debug info* The `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo` argument makes a build that is both optimized for speed, and has debug information embedded. That way, if you have a crash or try to analyse performance, you'll have some symbols. *to have a Trace Enabled build* To have a trace enabled build ( ***it will be slower***), add `-DHAVE_TRACE=1` but you will need, at runtime, to have the [Zydis library](https://github.com/zyantific/zydis) library in your `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` or in the system library folders. *to have ARM Dynarec* The Dynarec is only available on the ARM architecture(Right now, anyways.). Notes also that VFPv3 and NEON are required for the Dynarec. Activate it by using `-DARM_DYNAREC=1`. Also, be sure to use `-marm` in compilation flags (because many compileur use Thumb as default, and the dynarec will not work in this mode). *not building from a git clone* If you are not building from a git clone (for example, downloading a release source zipped from github), you need to activate `-DNOGIT=1` from cmake to be able to build (normal process include git sha1 of HEAD in the version that box86 print). ---- Testing ---- A few tests are included. They can be launched with `ctest` They are very basic and don't test much for now.
