Title: MAME 0.196 compiler warnings
Post by: EMDB on April 16, 2018, 01:19:02 pm

When I try to compile  MAME 0.196 with the no-nag patch (http://mamestuff.lowtrucks.net/MKChamp/ (http://mamestuff.lowtrucks.net/MKChamp/)) using the latest Mame Compiler 64 (V2.0.176) I get a lot of warnings during the build. The build finishes though and a new version om MAME is created. It even seems to work but I'm in doubt about the warnings. It looks like 2 warnings about deprecated stuff repeating in all kind of drivers:

Anybody a clue?  ???  ???

Yes... ignore them all. There will most likely be even more warnings for 0.197.

Specifically "set_digit_value" was deprecated (causes the warnings) and has now been eliminated. However "set_led_value" and "set_lamp_value" are newly added, so creating even more warnings. Plus a single warning about a CPU.

So, as long as your build gets created at the end, there's nothing to worry about.
