Rust for the Game Boy Advance

This is my in development library for rust on the Game Boy Advance. It uses information from GbaTek, Tonc, and the existing rust-console/gba.

Note that this currently contains no documentation of any kind, unless you count examples as documentation.

Build Requirements

• Nightly rust, probably quite a recent version.
• arm eabi binutils
  • Debian and derivatives: sudo apt install binutils-arm-none-eabi
  • Arch Linux and derivatives: pacman -S arm-none-eabi-binutils

Test Requirements

• mgba 0.9.0
• corwinkuiper/mgba-test-runner
  • cargo install --git https://github.com/corwinkuiper/mgba-test-runner.git

Real Hardware Build

• Need gbafix, rust implementation can be installed with cargo install gbafix.
• On compiled elf file, additionally need to

arm-none-eabi-objcopy -O binary {input-elf} {output-gba}
gbafix {output-gba}

Stability

0% stable, I have no problems making drastic changes in the API in order to make something nice to work with.
