Retrorch does not close when using this core with the "Exit #80

Open aaciii opened 2 years ago

aaciii commented 2 years ago

When launching content into the DOSbox-svn core, and exiting that content, the core does not seem to send proper signals to RetroArch as RA does not close. Conf file attached (this is how the content is launched, via command-line as follows:)

retroarch --config "config\dosbox_svn_libretro.cfg" -L "cores\dosbox_svn_libretro.dll" "E:\Retro ARCADE 2 Update 1\emulators\DOS\conf\Prince_of_Persia.conf" Prince_of_Persia.conf.txt dosbox_svn_libretro.cfg.txt

This is normal. RA never closes when you exit content, unless you set load_dummy_on_core_shutdown = "false" in the RA config.

Also, please note that dosbox-svn is not actively maintained. DOSBox-core is:

There is a RA setting called "Quit on Close content" that should close RA when DOSbox exits. However it does not.

Also, DOSbox-SVN does indeed appear to be in active development.

It's "load dummy on core shutdown":

It hasn't been synced with upstream dosbox in a long time and it only gets bugfixes. DOSBox-core is actively developed.

I should know, because I'm the only one who actually does commits to both these cores :-P
