MaLaStub - Plugin creation tool
« on: March 26, 2007, 04:51:29 pm »
For all you MaLa Devs out there, I've updated MaLaStub for the 1.4 release. Also added a feature to launch MAME on the GameStart event.

Download: MaLaStub.zip (v1.0.2)

** This saves me so much time de-bugging Plug-ins.

Not having to start and quit mala all the time to test stuff is SUPER COOL!!!   :applaud: :applaud:

Hi,

Any chance you could please update this wonderful Plugin-creation tool  ;D

There is a couple of extra calls available. Refer latest SDK.

Thanks

Just out of curiousity, how does this work? Dynamically load and unload the mplugin dlls?

Just thinking of incorporating the same idea into Engine18 (no it's not dead, just kinda creeping along)   :)

Exactly - the selected plugin (dll) is dynamically loaded and then an attempt to hook into each of the event function calls determines if that event is supported by the plugin.

Doh! I finally realized I hadn't looked at the whole thread.

This is like a "fake Mala" for testing plugins. Very Cool!

I'll definitely give that a whirl!

And it now launches mame games.   :cheers:

That must classify it now as a FE.    ;D

Who needs MaLa ?  :D

I added the mame launch feature mostly so I could test LEDBlinky's communication with mame. Not sure how useful it is to most other plugins.
