Building dps8m under Ubuntu
If you are using a pared-down system, such as Ubuntu Server 17.04, some utilities may not be present. Install those first…
sudo apt-get install git libtool automake make clang
Build 'libuv'
wget https://github.com/libuv/libuv/archive/v1.x.zip
unzip v1.x
cd libuv-1.x
sh autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install
cd ..
Build dps8
wget http://ringzero.wikidot.com/local--files/start/dps8_R2.0_source.tgz
tar xfz dps8_R2.0_source.tgz
cd dps8m-code
make
Running the emulator.
(Copy 'src/dps8/dps8' to the desired working directory)
./dps8 [boot script]
Building dps8m under CentOS
Install needed packages:
sudo yum install automake libtool clang
Build 'libuv'
wget https://github.com/libuv/libuv/archive/v1.x.zip
unzip v1.x
cd libuv-1.x
sh autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install
cd ..
Build dps8
wget http://ringzero.wikidot.com/local--files/start/dps8_R2.0_source.tgz
tar xfz dps8_R2.0_source.tgz
cd dps8m-code
make
Running the emulator.
(Copy 'src/dps8/dps8' to the desired working directory)
./dps8 [boot script]
Building dps8m under macOS
Install needed packages:
Before you can build under macOS, you need to install Xcode from the macOS App Store. You also need to install and agree to the license for the Xcode command-line tools. You agree to the license with "sudo xcodebuild -license accept".
You will need to install wget (if not already installed); to do this, first install Homebrew, and then use "brew install wget" to install wget. You will also need glibtoolize, which you can get by using "brew install libtool".
Build 'libuv'
wget https://github.com/libuv/libuv/archive/v1.x.zip
unzip v1.x
cd libuv-1.x
sh autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install
cd ../..
Build dps8
wget http://ringzero.wikidot.com/local--files/start/dps8_R2.0_source.tgz
tar xfz dps8_R2.0_source.tgz
cd dps8m-code
make LIBUV='/usr/local/lib/libuv.a -lpthread' clean all
sudo make install
cd ..
Building dps8m under Fedora 23 Linux For Windows ("Cross-compilng")
Install needed packages:
sudo dnf install mingw64-gcc mingw64-libgnurx libtool
sudo dnf update perl-Errno
Build 'libuv'
wget https://github.com/libuv/libuv/archive/v1.x.zip
unzip v1.x
cd libuv-1.x
sh autogen.sh
mingw64-configure
make
sudo make install
cd ..
Get the dps8m source:
wget http://ringzero.wikidot.com/local--files/start/dps8_R2.0_source.tgz
tar xfz dps8_R2.0_source.tgz
cd dps8m-code
make CROSS=MINGW64
Copy these files to your windows machine:
- dps8.exe
- /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/bin/libwinpthread-1.dll
- /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/bin/libuv-1.dll
Building dps8m Under Windows With MSYS2
In your browser, go to https://msys2.github.io/
Download and run the msys2 x86_64 installer. Follow the installation
instructions on the webpage.
After step 7 ("Now Pacman is fully committed…"), fetch the dps8m
code, needed libraries and packages by entering:
wget http://ringzero.wikidot.com/local--files/start/dps8_R2.0_source.tgz
tar xfz dps8_R2.0_source.tgz
wget https://github.com/libuv/libuv/archive/v1.x.zip
unzip v1.x
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-binutils
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-libtool

Start a MSYS2 MinGW window and build the code:
Start -> All programs -> MSYS2 64 bit -> MSYS2 MINGW 64 bit
cd libuv-1.x
sh autogen.sh
./configure
mingw32-make.exe MAKE=mingw32-make.exe
cd
cd dps8-code
mingw32-make.exe
Running the emulator.
Start a Windows command shell:
Start -> All programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt
Change directory to where the emulator is to be run from and copy the needed files
cd <wherever>
copy c:\msys64\home\Admin\dps8m-code\src\dps8\dps8.exe
copy c:\msys64\mingw64\bin\libwinpthread-1.dll
copy c:\msys64\mingw64\bin\libuv-1.dll
