Compiling
----
#### for RK3399
Using a 64bits OS:
```
git clone https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64
cd box64
mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DRK3399=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
make -j4
sudo make install
```
If it's the first install, you also need:
```
sudo systemctl restart systemd-binfmt
```
#### for PI4
Warning, you need a 64bits OS:
```
git clone https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64
cd box64
mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DRPI4ARM64=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
make -j4
sudo make install
```
If it's the first install, you also need:
```
sudo systemctl restart systemd-binfmt
```
#### for Other ARM64 Linux platforms
`mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DARM_DYNAREC=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo; make -j$(nproc)`
#### for x86_64 Linux
`mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DLD80BITS=1 -DNOALIGN=1 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo; make -j$(nproc)`
#### use ccmake
Alternatively, you can use the curses-bases ccmake (or any other gui frontend for cmake) to select wich platform to use interactively.
#### Customize your build
*use ccache if you have it*
Add `-DUSE_CCACHE=1` if you have ccache (it's better if you plan to touch the sources)
*have some debug info*
The `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo` argument makes a build that is both optimized for speed, and has debug information embedded. That way, if you have a crash or try to analyse performance, you'll have some symbols.
*to have a Trace Enabled build*
To have a trace enabled build ( ***it will be slower***), add `-DHAVE_TRACE=1` but you will need, at runtime, to have the [Zydis library](https://github.com/zyantific/zydis) library in your `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` or in the system library folders.
*to have ARM Dynarec*
The Dynarec is only available on the ARM architecture(Right now, anyways.). Notes also that VFPv3 and NEON are required for the Dynarec. Activate it by using `-DARM_DYNAREC=1`. Also, be sure to use `-marm` in compilation flags (because many compileur use Thumb as default, and the dynarec will not work in this mode).
*not building from a git clone*
If you are not building from a git clone (for example, downloading a release source zipped from github), you need to activate `-DNOGIT=1` from cmake to be able to build (normal process include git sha1 of HEAD in the version that box64 print).

Testing
----
A few tests are included.
They can be launched with `ctest`
They are very basic and don't test much for now.
