As my uninspiring maths teacher used to say, "You're right: No 
question is too dumb to ask. But you may be too dumb to understand the 
answer"! So theres that..


I dont know that any version of Java is installed in Windows by 
default, but anyway, mine was an "upgrade" from W10 and Java 8 was 
already installed.


I dont want the whole JDK (Im at the end of my month's broadband 
quota). So am I to understand that JDK17 includes Java runtime V11? If 
so then Oracle's version system is even more screwed up than mine! 8, 
11, 17..?


Anyway, I found my way to the V11 runtime, but now they want me to 
sign up to be able to download it!! I never used to have to do that 
before. I may revert to V8 if theyll still allow me to download it 
without an account. If not, Im not sure what I'll do..

It appears that most of the library files are missing in the Java 8 .zip

Java 8 version. I could fix this by copying the files in the lib 
directory from the Java 11 version.


A more serious bug is that the tcp device now doesn't appear to work. 
When I tried to start QBOX as telnet server it failed to open the tcp 
channel with a 'not found' message. Using tcp as client also failed.

Could it be that implementing udp support has broken the tcp device?

Great news! Thank you for making it possible to run QL software almost
everywhere thanks to the Java implementation of a virtual QL machine.

Can't wait to explore the diffs and try it out with QL/E under Windows and
Linux (Intel and Raspi).

And not a bad timing to integrate it into the next version QL/E which is

Hi,


Thanks again. I reloaded the re-upped version.

But under W$7 with most recent Java 8.251 (updated today) nothing
happens, not even the black screen or an error message.



Strange. Just to be sure, I downloaded the file and used it under win7
in a VM where it runs OK with java 8.



Under an old Lubuntu and likely an old Java8 it will start.
Also under W$10 with Java 8.241 there seems to be no problem.


Using a commad line,

java --version
will tell you what java you're running .


The Lubutu reports 1.8.0_66, running SQm8229 OK.
On my Pi3 it's even 1.8.0_65, still running SQm8224 OK.

Trying "java -version" on my W$7(1), I get:  
"java.lang.ExeptionInInitializerError" and a whole page of other messages.


Then I unzipped the same file on another W$7 machine (2), also having Java  
1.8.0_251. There it runs as expected.


So SQm8229 seems OK while there is something wrong with the Java on  
machine (1) since the last update. Also a cold reset did not cure that.

I probably need to uninstall it and try again.

BTW, -showversion works too but also shows a list of command options.

Thanks,
Bob

There seems to be a problem with 2.29.
Launching it displays a black screen.

About says: v 2.29 for Java 8.

Hi Bob, Per, François, Derek,

thanks for letting me know.

It seems the version for java 11 is ok, not the one for java 8, though
both work ok here.

I re-upped the version for java 8 (also changing the version number).

HTH

Wolfgang



I updated the Java 11 version all is working okay on Linux.

Maybe it's a Windows problem.

Hi all,

hot on the heels of SMSQE 3.36 comes SMSQmulator 2.29.

Win drives can be made removable.
NFA drives can handle (exec, save and load) files with an XTcc

footer,

so that QL files can be  EXEC'd directly from a native drive.

Thanks Wolfgang for the final 2.29.
But it seems something has gone wrong when making the zip.
The unpacked SMSQm8229 only opens it's W$ window, the content is 
black, no QL windows.

When viewing the supplied SMSQE bin file I see sections of SBasic(?).

Then I copied SMSQE (also 308.5K) from the 3.36 binaries, which 
looked alright although it said there @h01E0: 
"<>SMSQXq3.350002..".

The result was the same, no booting into my usual .WIN.
BTW The SMSQE 3.36 announcement was too hot for me and never reached 
my mailbox.

Hi,

With help from Wolfgang and some googling on my own there are now two
different solutions to this problem.
Wolfgang supplied me with a new smsqmulator which was able to keep up, and  
I found
the programming manual to the scanner family on the net which enabled me  
to reduce

its typing speed.

I have not tested with other java applications in BeOS yet, but the rest
of the applications installed in the system show these characters properly.

I also use OpenJDK on Linux and I don't detect that problem.


It may be something related to the configuration of the hpkg package or
to the configuration of my Haiku system.

Great!

This corrects a problem of loading images on the screen using lbytes.

I have seen that an entry called "JmenuItem1" appears in the File menu.

Tell you that I tried the emulator in Haiku (BeOS) and it works
correctly in OpenJDK, but some characters are not shown in the menus.
for example, special characters such as the opening of interrogation or
exclamation, the letter ñ or the ellipses (...) that indicate that this
menu option will open another menu.

Great!

Im particularly pleased that many of the differences in behaviour between
SMSQmulator and QPC2 have been ironed out! That means that programmers dont
have to write separate versions, or include fiddly workarounds, in their
programs. They run identically on both platforms. Amazingly, this also
includes some lower-level stuff, such as accessing many host platform
facilities - at least where they both run under Windoze. Am I right in
thinking that ound has also improved?

The great thing about SMSQmulator is that we now have an SMSQ/E platform
that will run on just about any host that supports Java - both now and in
the foreseeable future. Many people, me included, didnt see the point, when
Wolfgang first suggested the idea, back in 2010, in Vienna. But he has
proved his point! This is now a very usable, stable, and mature product.

Thanks Wolfgang! Im sure having fun!

Re: [Ql-Users] SMSQmulator v 2.18

[derek]

Hi,

The Raspberry Pi 3 is a 64 bit system. But the operating system is 32 bit.  
According to Eben Upton, one of designer of the Raspberry PI, the Raspberry PI 
3 B is 50% faster than the Raspberry PI 2 B and 10x faster than the Raspberry 
PI B.

It seems to run SMQMULATOR easily. QDT loads fairly quickly.

If the GPIO port can be programmed in SBASIC, as mentioned in an earlier email. 
It is becoming a via solution. 

I have a Motorola Ladock which was used for the DROID cell phone, but can be 
used on the PI. An 11" HDMI laptop.

Pity there are no QL workshop, as I could show it there...

Derek

As Marcos has pointed out, it seems to be faster with the Oracle JVM

Wolfgang even at ~2.53 bogomips it is still useful, bit like a

That would be an acceptable speed, I think.

Raspberry Pi.

It seems Oracle developed a specific implementation for ARM on Raspi,
and they did a good job.

Personally, I don't like to install propietary software on my system
without a good reason, though, but SMSQmulator seems a good one :) I
hope openjdk will catch up, or maybe other alternatives are available.

Hi,

I use SMSQmulator on a Fujitsu Celcius H700 Core i7, with 4Gb ram, using 
Linux with Java 8. The whole system runs perfect.


The only problem I have is the screen resolution of the hardware is too 
high, so I have double the screen window, which solves this.


I have a Pi B & Pi B+, which I use RISC OS and RetroPI. I think moving 
to a Pi for a QL emulation would be really sloow...

Re: [Ql-Users] SMSQmulator on RPi2 (Re: Tynemouth Software QL keyboard USB interface)

[matrassyl]

Hi,

As Wolfgang suggested I used Thierry Godefroys QL program to measure bogomips 
under SMSQE. RPi2 "native noobs boot" gets ~38.40 bogomips under linux (xterm - 
and cat /proc/cpuinfo) which is roughly what you got.

When I asked about java I am aware of 2 versions or java on RPi, there is the 
freeware java v7 which it seems you have installed as I have and there is 
oracle java v7 which I read somewhere handled floating point numbers better. I 
will try it later. I dont think java v8 is on RPi yet. Over clocking RPi 2 this 
afternoon using the Xwindows menu options to a processor speed of 1Ghz 
increased the bogomips under SMSQE to 2.76 with a 1024x768 window and 2.81 with 
a window of 512x256. All of this is in 16 bit colours. Also there are the 
Xwindows apps over heads that may make a difference to the speed of 
SMSQmulator. I plan to look in to the possibility of configuring a minimal boot 
of Xwindows with only SMSQmulator running to get a bit more speed, If you have 
done this already let me know how as I am at the stage of reading up about how 
to do this in linux.

Wolfgang even at ~2.53 bogomips it is still useful, bit like a Goldcard running 
SMSQE. The RPi B without over clocking gets only 2 bogomips under linux and 
thats without Xwindows running in the background, no wonder SMSQmulator is not 
worth the effort with RPi B. Even anything complicated like internet browsing 
with a basic RPi B is like watching a game load from tape to a 48k Spectrum.

How do you get that measure? I never heard of BogoMIPS, but I've
investigated what it is, and get the following:

$ dmesg | grep Bogo

Yes, it's fast enough to be usable. It's the only QL emulator I use, I
never succeded in compiling or executing uQLx-arm on RPi, but anyway
SMSQmulator is more interesting for me as development platform.

[Timothy Swenson]

I've had a few problems getting e-mails from Europe.  An alternate 
e-mail address to reach me is:   swens...@lanset.com.  All else fails, 
my work e-mail can be used:  swens...@exablox.com

[Wolf]

Hi all,

I'm sorry for is-using this list like this, but my messages to Tim 
Swenson get bounced back yto me.


Tim, if this message reaches you by any chance, is there another email 
address at which I could reach you?


I got your message that you haven't got anything from me, so curiously 
at least one of my messages got through?

Re: [Ql-Users] SMSQmulator 2.07

[Derek Stewart]

Hi Wolfgang,

I have downloaded and am running v2.07, looks really good.

I will test the Floating Point routines with some Raytracing.

Regards,

Derek

This fixes a bug in the emulation core (which is why you should upgrade).

It is also possible to speed up some floating point routines - please
see chapter VIII - Faster floating point routines for that.

Have fun

Re: [Ql-Users] SMSQmulator 2.06

[Wolf]

Hi Bob,


I have not yet been able to test v2.06 on Pi2 or Pi1.
Nor will I be able to do so shortly, especially now that the Atrix Dock
that I use for my Pi1 has display problems, making it unusable.
Further tests will have to wait for now.


I don't know what that is I don't have a Raspi).



This BEEP command is executed in total silence.


yes, that's my contribution to preventing noise pollution...


More seriously, that would indicate that BEEP doesn't work either.
Can anybody else  with a raspi confirm?

Hi Bob,

sorry I misread your comment,.



I ran v2.05 on the new Raspberry Pi2 and it's now but quite usable in
high colour mode compared to earlier tests.
My normal boot is done in 35 seconds, taking 10 minutes on Pi1!


OK, that's not too bad, then. How long does the current version of 
SMSQmulator take on a Pi1?

 I use Open-jdk7 for both but now I get an error message on Pi2.
 Cannot initialise the SMSQ/E sampled sound system.:
 :java.sound.sampled.LineUnavailableExeption


Can you get it to beep, i.e. does  beep 1000,10 produce any sound?


This BEEP command is executed in total silence.
To be more accurate, together with the Pi2 there was also a change in 
the Raspbian OS, where the change in audio behaviour I mentioned was 
implemented. So it may be a Java  OS communication problem although all 
was updgraded yesterday.

So v2.05 gives the same startup error message on Pi1 under the new OS.
I wanted to test it with the old Raspbian, where v2.04 did not generate 
the error, but my Atrix problem derailed that.


Your earlier suggestion to switch to Java8 also has to wait.
The Raspbian repository seems not to have Java8 available yet.
v2.05 is running on my W$7 plus Java8 machine without errors.

Thanks Wolfgang for keeping it up to date.
I had not used this command yet, lucky me.

The Pi boys did change the sound system but I adapted it's config to 
make it work from the Pi side.


Suggestions anyone?

Use jdk 8. I too have seen some systems which had problems with sound  
jdk 7 (or 6 for that matter).


Hope that helps

Wolfgang - I have been trying to send you a SMSQ/E document to the address you 
use for this list, but your email system keeps rejecting all emails from me.

Is there another email address I could use? Or perhaps you could whitelist my

Re: [Ql-Users] SMSQmulator 1.26

[Derek Stewart]

Hi,

As with v1.25, v1.26 work great on my X64 Windows 7 Laptop.

I quite like the double size feature, as the laptop resolution is 
1920x1024, which is a like tiring after a while in normal size. But 
changing to double size, is slightly easier on the eye after hours of 
programming.


Regards,

Derek

I've looked at that, and it could happen under some circumstances.
