DESCRIPTION

WARNING: WITH VERSION 1.3, THE STATUS FILE HAS BEEN MODIFIED AND IS NOW FULLY COMPATIBLE WITH THE WINDOWS VERSION AS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN.
HOWEVER, BEFORE THE UPDATE, BACK UP YOUR DATA BECAUSE YOU COULD LOSE THEM.

This project ports the Windows application Emu48 written in C to Android.
It uses the Android NDK. The former Emu48 source code (written by Sébastien Carlier and Christoph Giesselink) remains untouched because of a thin win32 emulation layer above Linux/NDK!
This win32 layer will allow to easily update from the original Emu48 source code.
It can open or save the exact same state files (state.e48/e49) than the original Windows application!

Some KML files with theirs faceplates are embedded in the application but it is still possible to open a KML file and its dependencies by selecting a folder.

The application does not request any permission (because it opens the files or the KML folders using the content:// scheme).

The application is distributed with the same license under GPL and you can find the source code here:
https://github.com/dgis/emu48android


QUICK START

1. From the left side, slide your finger to open the menu.
2. Touch the "New..." menu item.
3. Select a predefined faceplate (or select a custom KML script folder with Android >= 5.0).
4. And the calculator should now be opened.


NOTES

- The Help menu displays Emu48's original help HTML page and may not accurately reflect the behavior of this Android version.
- When using a custom KML script by selecting a folder, you must take care of the case sensitivity of its dependency files.
- Starting with the version 1.4, a RAM card generator for the port 2 of the HP48SX and HP48GX has been added.
  Like with the MKSHARED.EXE on Windows, you can generate the card in a file (i.e.: SHARED.BIN).
  And then, to use with the HP48SX or the HP48GX, you must select this generated file in the "Settings/Port2 File".
- By default when you create a new HP49/50 with the embedded readonly file "rom.49g",
  everything that you store in port 2 is lost just because the file "rom.49g" is READONLY.
  But it works exactly like with Windows. If you can write in the ROM file,
  it should save the content of port 2 in the ROM file with Android too.
  To save the port 2 in the HP49/50 with Emu48 for Android:
  * copy "real50g-lc.kml", "real50g-lc.png", "keyb4950.kmi",  "rom.49g" in a FOLDER of your Android device,
  * in the menu:
   - touch "New..." to create a new device
   - or touch "Change KML Script..." to change the current KML script and ROM location
  * select "[Custom KML script...]"
  * select the FOLDER
  * pick the calculator (which should be "Eric's Real 50g (Large Cropped)")!
  And because, the file "FOLDER/rom.49g" is not readonly anymore, you can save your port 2.
  BUT for the moment, it is saved ONLY when you CLOSE (or change) the state file. Not when you end the application.


NOT WORKING YET

- Disassembler
- Debugger

TODO

- In Chrome OS:
    - The timezone seems to be GMT (localtime_r not right?)!
    - sometimes there is no OK button in the KML Script Compilation Result.
- Pan and zoom seems possible after closing the calc.
- Improve the swipe gesture.
- The clock seems unsynchronized sometimes.
- Add KML script loading dependencies fallback to the inner ROM (and may be KML include?).
- Add a separation between the pixels (Suggestion from Jaime Meza).
- Change the logo following the template.


BUILD

Emu48 for Android is built with Android Studio 3.4 (2019).
And to generate an installable APK file with a real Android device, it MUST be signed.

Either use Android Studio:
* In menu "Build"
* Select "Generate Signed Bundle / APK..."
* Select "APK", then "Next"
* "Create new..." (or use an existing key store file)
* Enter "Key store password", "Key alias" and "Key password", then "Next"
* Select a "Destination folder:"
* Select the "Build Variants:" "release"
* Select the "Signature Versions:" "V1" (V1 only)
* Finish

Or in the command line, build the signed APK:
* In the root folder, create a keystore.jks file with:
** keytool -genkey -keystore ./keystore.jks -keyalg RSA -validity 9125 -alias key0
** keytool -genkeypair -v -keystore ./keystore.jks -keyalg RSA -validity 9125 -alias key0
* create the file ./keystore.properties , with the following properties:
    storeFile=../keystore.jks
    storePassword=myPassword
    keyAlias=key0
    keyPassword=myPassword
* gradlew build
* The APK should be in the folder app/build/outputs/apk/release

Then, you should be able to use this fresh APK file with an Android device.
