  • Json: Json serialization engine. Json is used to store emulator settings, as well as for the JDI system (Json Debug Interface).
  • Spinlock: Mutually exclusive access synchronization.
  • Thread: Portable threads.
  • Jdi: Json Debug Interface. More information can be found in JsonDebugInteface.md
  • File: File utilities
  • String: String utilities
  • ByteSwap: Portable byte-swap API

Note on Threads

Dolwin uses Suspend/Resume methods as control primitives.

The thread procedure is called Worker. Unlike conventional implementations, it does not contain an infinite loop, but simply makes one iteration of the thread. The infinite loop is implemented above (in Common/Thread.cpp) to support the Suspend/Resume mechanism, where it is not supported by the native thread implementation (for example, in pthreads).
