RISC OS 64 porting status

This repository contains information about the status of RISC OS 64 ports of modules.

Development status

The current development status for each component can be found in the Wiki.

The progress on each phase of the development is also available.

Built components

Some of the absolutes and modules which have been ported can be found within this repository.

• The rm32 directory contains the 32-bit version of modules.
• The rm64 directory contains the 64-bit version of modules.
• The aif32 directory contains the 32-bit version of absolutes.
• The aif64 directory contains the 64-bit version of absolutes.

Absolutes and modules which are in the process of being created as C code may exist in both directories but may have incomplete implementations.

The files within this repository have rudimentary tests applied to them; we test absolute by trying to execute it (if we can) and each module by trying to load it. This is limited, but it proves that the components at least start.

Planning the work needed

The work on each component may be simple, or complex - there are some that may need a lot more work than others. In many cases, parts of the implementation can be done without needing to build full modules, so there can be progress seen in general, whilst there isn't as much to show. This also ensures that only some of the issues that need to be resolved can be deferred until later.

The plan of how the work should be done is described through a number of phases. Each phase will make progress on areas of the system to progress the whole.
