lib/drive-filereader.js is missing #14

Closed ikreymer closed 3 years ago

Wanted to try the emscripten build of halfix.

Looks like there's a file that's missing from git:

<script src="lib/drive-filereader.js"></script>

The file is not in the repo, I assume its also where dynCall_vii would be implemented, as it ends up being undefined.

Hi,

Sorry, I shouldn't have included that line. It was for another side project that I can hopefully pick back up when I'm not so busy.

As for dynCall_vii, that's an internal Emscripten routine to call function pointers. It connects the disk image loader (in JavaScript) back into the IDE emulator (in C). I used a lower-level binding mainly for speed and simplicity. The build script always invokes emcc with -s "EXTRA_EXPORTED_RUNTIME_METHODS=['dynCall_vii']" so that this routine is always exported. If you're using the build script and Emscripten is still complaining, then it will probably require more code changes, by perhaps writing a custom implementation of dynCall_vii.

In the past, Emscripten would automatically expose dynCall_vii, but somewhere along the line, it changed so that it no longer does. It works with the latest Emscripten (2.0.9), though.

Hope that helps.

2.0.9 didn't work for me, personally. Had the same dynCall_vii issue. Rolled back to the 1.x release of Emscripten, and things began to work.

I believe the dynCall issue should be resolved now -- I wrote my own version of it in src/emscripten/emscripten.c, and it works fine on 2.0.9.
