ixnet versions
« on: August 11, 2007, 06:14:16 AM »
The docs in ixemul-48.0 say "copy the version you need to LIBS:" and comes with versions like ixemul-0?0 and ixemul-0?0-fpu... but it doesnt describe them. The numbers are obvious, I have a 68030 so I need the 020 library. I thought the -fpu meant thats the version you use if you have an FPU... but when I thought some more, it occured to me that it COULD also mean that it contains FPU emulation and is for people who DONT have an FPU. I suspect the first is true, but want to be sure.

I have a 68030+68882, so for now Im using the ixemul-020-fpu.library

First is correct. The ones with "fpu" are for those who have an FPU. At least that's how i've always seen it mentioned in other programs that have fpu specific libraries. I'm 99.99% surethe fpu versions contain code to utilise the FPU.

You copy them across as ixemul.library and ixnet.library
