`27.Mar.2016` Amiga.org (Forum)	Amithlon: Information, patches and kernel source codes Under the title link, Tom Crews has collected information about Amithlon. The Amiga emulator, which was discontiniued 15 years ago, launches UAE based on a minimal Linux kernel and could have pavd the way for an AmigaOS/x86. After all those years, many links are no longer valid, so on Crews' website you can find information about supported hardware or a tutorial for compiling a kernel.

`25.Mar.2016` Amiga Future (Webseite)	Compiler: vbcc 0.9e vbcc is a C-compiler written by Volker Barthelmann (compiler core) and Frank Wille (Amiga specific adaptions). The compiler supports AmigaOS 3.x, AmigaOS 4, MorphOS, PowerUp as well as WarpOS. "It supports ISO C according to ISO/IEC 9899:1989 and a subset of the new standard ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (C99)." Version 0.9e provides several bug fixes and improvements. The detailed list of changes: New options -deps and -deps-for-libs to output dependencies for a Makefile. Print whole include-stack when encountering an error in include files. Fixed undefined symbols in DWARF output by avoiding debug information for removed static variables. Do not consider floats as induction variables. Fixes -O3 optimized loops with float variables. Fixed bug with nested designated initalizers in unions. Updated Warp3D headers and link libraries to V4.2a. amigalib: Fixed rtEZRequest() and rtEZRequestTags(). Make sure kick13 config file is included for m68k-amigaos (Kickstart 1.x compatibility). m68k: Fixed asm-peephole optimization of move.l dx,ay; move.l ay,dx when cc of ay is used. vclib: Improve C99 compatibility in m881, m040 and m040 libraries with Inf and NaN values. vclib: 6888x, 68040 and 68060 math libraries for Atari. vclib: C99 inttypes.h, strtoimax(), strtoumax(), imaxabs(), imaxdiv(), isblank(). vclib: Fixed sign of remainder in div(), ldiv(), lldiv(). vclib: minstart.o fixes for OS4 and MorphOS (small data and WB start). vclib: sscanf() erroneously included the string terminator. vclib: Fixed float operations with m13.lib (Kickstart 1.x mathffp). vclib: setjmp/longjmp() also save/restore FPU registers.

`24.Mar.2016` amigaworld.net (Webseite)	3D driver system: A-EON announced Warp 3D Nova and OpenGL ES 2.0 "Warp 3D" is a 3D driver system for AmigaOS which was developed by the Frieden brothers at the end of the nineties. Originally the archive was Freeware and in 2001 became a commercial product, distributed by Hyperion. Later it became part of AmigaOS 4. Unfortunately the drivers have not been developed further for years neither by the Friedens nor by Hyperion. Instead of, drivers for current graphic boards has been developed by Hans de Ruiter on behalf of A-EON. NOVA should be the name of the fifth version Warp 3D which was never released. In 2014 A-EON purchased rights which allows the company to develop further Warp 3D. First results soon are expected: In a press release A-EON today has announced, that Hans de Ruiter is working on an improved version of Warp 3D, which is supposed to be sold as "Warp 3D Nova". The most important new feature is the support of shaders: A modern shader-based 2D/3D graphics API for AmigaOS 4 Supports vertex and fragment (pixel) shaders giving developers great freedom over lighting models, effects, vertex transformations, etc. Hardware accelerated Transformation, Clipping & Lighting (TCL) is implicitly supported (programmed via shaders) Uses the SPIR-V standard for shaders. A GLSL to SPIR-V compiler is included All rendering is done via Vertex Buffer Objects (VBOs) which can be stored in VRAM for high performance. Render state stored in Render State Objects (RSOs). Having no global state avoids state thrashing, and allows multi-threaded rendering. Note: While there's no global state, a default RSO is allocated for convenience Includes an SDK with everything needed to start writing apps & games including examples ranging from querying hardware capabilities through to per-pixel lighting with normal mapping Can co-exist with earlier versions Warp3D-SI & MiniGL Warp 3D Nova is supposed to support most of the "Radeon HD" graphic boards with "Southern Island"-chipset. In order to complete the support of 3D, additionally Daniel 'Daytona675x' Müßener was hired to develop a OpenGL ES 2-wrapper, which is an emulation of the OpenGL ES specifications with the help of Warp 3D Nova. There are no information regarding the price. In a quote from Hans de Ruiter in the press release he said "there is still work to add compiler enhancements and many more features". Hint of the editorial stuff: For some time A-EON tries to develop further some part of the operating system or to replace some components of the OS by new and improved ones. Additional to 2D and 3D graphic drivers, Warp 3D Nova or Multiviewer NG, for months an archive named "Amiga Enhancer" is mentioned, which among others is supposd to include improved versions of the InstallerNG and of the Ringhio Notification Server and provides a text editor ("MultiEdit") as well as a dock called X-Dock. We do not know what Hyperion thinks of such activities. (cg) (Translation: dr) [News message: 24. Mar. 2016, 01:56] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
