Audio: AHI/PPC 6 only for MorphOS and AmigaOS 4
Martin Blom, the developer of the soundcard driver system AHI, has reiterated that there will be
neither PowerUp nor WarpUp versions. There is only the MorphOS version (available) and the
AmigaOS 4 version (planned).
Here is his original announcement:
"Yes, indeed, today is November 7th, not July
11th. Anyway, I've been asked to clarify one thing
regarding the PPC version of AHI. There will be no WarpUp version, nor
will there be any PowerUp version. The reason is that neither of these
two systems allow PPC code to be invoked from within an interrupt?,
which is an absolute requirement for AHI. The current PPC version is
for MorphOS only. In the future, I hope to have an AmigaOS 4 version
as well.
1) While it should have been obvious by reading the PowerUp documentation,
there is nothing in the WarpUp documentation or the actual design that
suggests that it will not work; in WarpUp, it could be possible
if the implementation had allowed it. In any case, the days when I could
be bothered to write for a mixed CPU system are since long gone..." (ps) (Translation: dm)
