129 | Known issues\r | |
130 | ============\r | |
820579e2 | 131 | 1) Video output is not displayed due to my OpenGL / QT5 5.5.1 integration with VS 2015 but solved when using the QT 5.9.1 package for VS 2017\r |
be44e757 JPM |
132 | 2) The BPM (Breapoint) remains stuck on his address when user wants to continue the code execution\r |
133 | -- Need to trace over the BPM or unset the BPM\r | |
eb20f274 JPM |
134 | -- The issue can be prevented if the code doesn't set IRQ, otherwise the IRQ will need to be traced to get back control\r |
135 | 3) To support DWARF 2 with GCC, the code must be compiled with the -gdwarf-2 option\r | |
a2dfb8e5 | 136 | 4) The Local and Watch variables window may display not available (N/A) type information\r |
be44e757 JPM |
137 | -- Such missing information may be included in future release\r |
138 | 5) The 2MB mirroring is no longer applied in case of --dram-max option usage\r | |
139 | 6) Stack must reflect the --dram-max option usage otherwise the stack may be corrupted\r | |
140 | -- The application needs to set the SP (Stack) in accordance\r | |
a2dfb8e5 | 141 | 7) The Exception Vector Table window displays only 65 vectors\r |
be44e757 | 142 | -- Missing vectors may be added in future release\r |
49a6ac1c JPM |
143 | 8) User needs to manualy check if the Atari Jaguar executable match his source code files\r |
144 | -- Otherwise, source code and assembly may not match or leads to instabilities\r | |
eb20f274 | 145 | 9) The emulator needs to be restarted in case of keybindings changes\r |
a2dfb8e5 JPM |
146 | 10) In the case of a ROM cartridge writing, and with occuring breakpoint, the PC pointer will point at the next instruction and not at the instruction causing the breakpoint\r |
147 | 11) Emulator will crash in case of wrong address value provided in the memory browser\r | |
a8c13b4d | 148 | 12) The RAM access log is limited to the 2MB\r |
be44e757 JPM |
149 | \r |
150 | Cosmetic / UX issues\r | |
151 | ====================\r | |
152 | 1) The SP (Stack) icon color backgound doesn't look similar with the other ones\r | |
a2dfb8e5 JPM |
153 | 2) The SP (Stack) browser size always open at a forced size no matter if the size has been changed\r |
154 | 3) Not every features have associated keybindings\r | |
be44e757 JPM |
155 | \r |
156 | Legacy issues/hints\r | |
157 | ===================\r | |
158 | 1) Emulator seems to have easter egg(s)\r | |
159 | -- The option --yarrr displays a single message and end the application\r | |
2d0121d4 | 160 | -- Pressing F8, while in the main window, will create an extra message in the log file\r |
be44e757 JPM |
161 | 2) The --alpine option force the log file but it can be override if --no-log option is set after the --alpine option\r |
162 | \r | |
