UAETools V1.7
=============
3 Tools for (Win)UAE:
UAEVersion
UAEUptime
UAEWait
******************************************************************************
UAEVersion could display the Version of the UAE running.
or you could check for a version like:
UAEVersion >NIL: VERSION 4 REVISION 4
IF WARN
Echo "Your UAE is too old !"
EndIF
UAEVersion works with
* WinUAE0.86++
* e-uae_0.8.29 (maybe older versions aswell, but didnt check)
* FS-UAE (but it seems all versions report V3.3)
* Other versions derived from WinUAE might work aswell,
please write me if they do. :)
******************************************************************************
UAEUptime shows the Uptime of the host system, it would look like this:
Uptime: 12 days 5:24
UAEUptime needs atleast WinUAE 1.6, other UAE's wont work or show nonsens.
******************************************************************************
UAEWait delays a given time or 1 second as default
Pattern: MS=MILLIS/N,SEC=SECS=SECONDS/N,MIN=MINS=MINUTES/N,HOUR=HOURS/N
Above 100ms the accuracy is decreased to 20ms, because then dos/Delay()
is repeatedly called till the given time has passed.
UAEWait needs atleast WinUAE1.6, other UAE's wont either work or wait
"forever", but you could always press Ctrl-C to break the wait.
******************************************************************************
* !!! Important !!! *
* To use any of this tools you need something in your config which creates *
* the uae.resource, for example: RTG-Graphics emulation, uaescsi.device, *
* bsdsocket.library, uaenet.device and so on. *
* If it cant be found you get "No UAE-Information." and a Fail-Returncode. *
******************************************************************************
Update V1.6.1:
UAETools will be included in the next AmiKit XE (https://www.amikit.amiga.sk)
- Update to check if the WinUAE is up to date and update it accordingly.
UAETools works on Amiberry (for ARM-based boards like the Raspberry Pi, ASUS
Tinkerboard, Odroid XU4, etc) aswell, their Codebase is based on WinUAE,
but will currently show only the WinUAE-Version, i suggested they use the
subversion for their updates.
UAEVersion was able to display Subversions in V1.6 already (like on WinUAE
4.2.1 -> UAEVersion: 4.2.1 ) now you can check for the subversion aswell:
UAEVersion ?
VERSION/N,REVISION/N,SUBVERSION/N
Update V1.7:
After my latest update on http://aminet.net/package/util/boot/CopyMemAIO i
noticed Vampire crashes with the "old way" to check for Uae, now all programs
just use the uae.resource and no checking of adresses directly.
