EduMIPS64 version 1.2.10

5th of March, 2021

EduMIPS64 is a GPL MIPS64 Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) simulator and graphical debugger.

Notes for this release

This is version 1.2.10 of EduMIPS64. Its codename is FP - Freedom and Peace, because of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, which is being invaded by Russia. Freedom and Peace is what I wish right now to the Ukrainians.

This is mostly a bug-fixing release: issues #450, #646 and #304 (for the second time) were fixed. In terms of development changes, we moved to JDK (and JRE) 17 and we fixed the Snapcraft packages for the armhf architecture (among others). The latter means that EduMIPS64 is available on Raspberry PI via snap!

This version contains contributions from the following people, listed in no particular order:

  • @hugmanrique and @jcarletta - reported 2 critical bugs and provided MIPS64 code to reproduce them, which I was allowed to incorporate as regression tests.
  • Andrea Spadaccini - @lupino3

Please keep in mind that this is still EXPERIMENTAL SOFTWARE. It may BURN YOUR HARD DISK, DESTROY ALL YOUR DATA and even GO OUT WITH YOUR PARTNER. :)

If you find a bug, please open an issue on GitHub.
