• sha: fix define name to not confuse and clash with actual sha block size by @DacoTaco in #155
• Move MAX_SND_VOICES to header file by @1011X in #158
• fix: generic fixes from extrems by @DacoTaco in #159
• fix: several card fixes by extrems by @DacoTaco in #161
• Fix typo by @Crayon2000 in #162
• add support for Dolphin debug messages by @WinterMute in #164

We've added a couple of new functions to assist with obtaining debug messages in the Dolphin emulator. To see the output enable OSReport EXI (OSREPORT) in Dolphin's log configuration and either use SYS_Report directly with printf semantics - i.e. SYS_Report("ze pointer is %p\r", ptr); or use SYS_STDIO_Report to redirect stderr and optionally stdout so you can use fprintf/printf & family. One caveat is that Dolphin currently expects to be sent shift-jis so non ascii characters will go a bit weird.

Code: Select all

	// Output directly to Dolphin emulated UART
	SYS_Report("Hello UART\r");

	// Redirect stderr to UART
	SYS_STDIO_Report(false);

	fprintf(stderr,"stderr: Hello stderr UART!\r");

	// Redirect both stdio and stderr to UART
	SYS_STDIO_Report(true);

	fprintf(stderr,"stderr: Hello stderr UART!\r");
	fprintf(stdout,"stdout: Hello stdout UART!\r");
	printf("stdout: Hello printf UART!\r");
