Boytacean SDL

Build

Build SDL using vcpkg

To be able to run the cargo build one must first install a local version of vcpkg using:

cargo install cargo-vcpkg
cargo vcpkg build
cargo build

Build SDL in Windows

For windows the vcpk based SDL building is simpler:

cargo install cargo-vcpkg
cargo build

Make sure that the current Rust in use is msvc based using:

rustup default stable-msvc

For more information check GitHub - Rust-SDL2/rust-sdl2.

Build binaries

Then you can use the following command to build and run Boytacean SDL:

cargo build
cargo run

To reload the code continuously use the cargo watch tool:

cargo install cargo-watch
cargo watch -x run

There are some feature flags that control the verbosity of the emulator to run in debug mode use:

cargo run --features debug
