It also includes documentation and other resources developers can -use to write software for the PSP. - - PSPSDK is distributed under a BSD-compatible license, with the exception - of the files located in tools/PrxEncrypter. The files located in the - tools/PrxEncrypter directory are subject to the terms of the GNU General - Public License version 3. See the LICENSE files for more information. - - -Features - - PSPSDK provides a full set of libraries for creating PSP software: - - * Stub libraries and headers for interfacing with the PSP operating - system, ranging from threading libraries, file io, display driver - and wifi networking. - * Basic runtime support (crt0) for executables and libraries. - * A minimal port of the Standard C Library (libc) is included. PSPSDK's - mini-libc provides portable memory allocation, string formatting, and - several other Standard C Library functions. - * Support code for linking with the full Standard C Library provided with - the PSPDEV toolchain. - * An implementation of the libGU graphics library. libGU provides an - interface to the 2D and 3D hardware acceleration features found in the - PSP's Graphic Engine. - * An implementation of the libGUM library. libGUM provides an interface - for manipulating matrices for use in 3D software. - * A simple audio library which can be used to play back PCM audio streams. - * Support for building static executables and PRX files (relocatable - modules). - - PSPSDK also includes several tools to assist in building PSP software: - - * bin2c, bin2o, and bin2s for converting binary files into C source, - object files, and assembler source files, respectively. - * mksfo for creating PARAM.SFO files. - * pack-pbp and unpack-pbp for adding files to and removing files from - EBOOT.PBP. - * psp-config for locating PSPDEV tools and libraries. - * psp-prxgen for converting specially made ELFs to PRX files. - * psp-build-exports for creating export tables - * psp-fixup-imports for fixing up import tables post-linking to remove - unused functions from the executable. - - Documentation for the libraries are also provided, and can be found in the -doc/ directory of the PSPSDK source and binary distributions. - - A library for Make (build.mak) is also included to provide an easy way to -build simple programs and libraries. See any PSPSDK sample program for -details on how build.mak is used. - - -Installation - - PSPSDK is distributed in both source and binary packages. If you only -want to use the PSPSDK tools and libraries to develop your software you'll -want to grab the binary distribution of PSPSDK specific to your development -platform. If you need fine-grained control over how PSPSDK is installed on -your system, or if you would like to modify PSPSDK then grab the source -distribution. You can also install PSPSDK from Subversion, see "Installation -from Subversion" below for details. - - Requirements - - To use PSPSDK you must have the following software installed: - - * The PSPDEV Toolchain. PSPSDK requires the GNU toolchain (GCC and - binutils) targetted to the PSP. You can find binary packages of these - tools at http://www.pspdev.org/. You can find a script to build and - install the toolchain at https://github.com/pspdev/psptoolchain. - - In addition to the above requirements, if you plan on building PSPSDK from -source, you will need: - - * Make. Note: GNU Make may not be required, but if you run into problems - building from source you may want to install it. You can find GNU Make - at http://www.gnu.org/software/make/. - - If you plan on building PSPSDK directly from the Subversion repository you -will need: - - * A Subversion client. A popular client for Windows is TortoiseSVN - (http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/). - * GNU autotools. You will need a recent version of autoconf - (http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/) and automake - (http://sourceware.org/automake/). - - The following packages are not required to build PSPSDK, but are used to -build documentation and other optional resources: - - * Doxygen. You can find Doxygen at http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/. - If you want to view the pretty source dependency graphs, then you will - also need to install Graphviz (http://www.graphviz.org/). - - Installation from binary - - Download the PSPSDK binary package specific to your development system. -For example, if you are using Windows, you will want to download the file -pspsdk-1.0-win32.zip. - - Extract or unzip the package into the folder where the PSPDEV toolchain is -installed. For example, on a Windows system you may have installed the PSPDEV -toolchain to C:\pspdev. You would then unzip PSPSDK into C:\pspdev. - - Update your PATH environment variable to point to the PSPSDK tools -directory. In the above example, if you installed PSPSDK to C:\pspdev, you -would add C:\pspdev\bin to your PATH. - - Installation from source - - PSPSDK uses the GNU autotools (autoconf and automake) for its build -system. To install PSPSDK from a source distribution, run the following -commands after unpacking it: - - ./configure - make - make doxygen-doc - make install - - If you haven't installed Doxygen or don't want to build the library -documentation, you can skip the - - Installation from Subversion - - PSPSDK can be found in the Subversion repository located at -svn://svn.pspdev.org/psp. If you are using the command line version of the -Subversion client, you can the following command to download PSPSDK: - - svn co svn://svn.pspdev.org/psp/trunk/pspsdk - - Once you've downloaded PSPSDK, run the following from the pspsdk directory -to create the configure script and support files (you must have autoconf and -automake installed): - - ./bootstrap - - You can now run the commands listed in the "Installation from source" -section. - - -Notes - - * This is a BETA release of PSPSDK. Some of the features and tools - described here may not be fully implemented. - - * By default PSPSDK will install into the directory where the PSPDEV - toolchain is installed. If you decide to install PSPSDK somewhere else - then you must define a PSPSDK environment variable that points to your - alternate directory. The psp-config build utility will look for PSPSDK - in the location specified in the PSPSDK environment variable first, or - use its own location to determine where PSPSDK is installed. - - * The Makefile templates provided by the sample code are designed for - building a single executable or a library, but not both. If you plan on - using these templates in your project to build both libraries - and executables be aware that you will have to structure your project so - that each library and executable are built in a seperate directory. - - -Bugs - - If you find a bug in PSPSDK, send an e-mail describing the bug to -pspsdk-bugs@lists.ps2dev.org. If possible, include any code or documentation -that can be used by the PSPSDK developers to recreate the bug. - - -Resources - - Mailing Lists - - pspsdk-bugs@lists.ps2dev.org - - Use this list to report any bugs you find in PSPSDK. To subscribe, send an - empty e-mail message to pspsdk-bugs-subscribe@lists.ps2dev.org. - - For a full list of PSP development mailing lists, see - http://lists.ps2dev.org/. - - Web Forums - - http://forums.ps2dev.org/ - - The PSP development forums are an excellent place to find out about the - latest PSP homebrew games, demos, and other software. PSPSDK has it's own - dedicated forum titled 'PSPSDK Support and Development'. Use this forum to - find out about the most recent PSPSDK developments and to ask questions - about PSPSDK. - - Subversion - - svn://svn.pspdev.org/ - http://svn.pspdev.org/ - - PSPDEV tools and libraries can be found in the psp/ repository at - svn://svn.pspdev.org/. PSP homebrew games, demos, and other applications - can be found in the pspware/ repository located at the same URL. To view - the contents of these repositories using a Web browser, visit - http://svn.pspdev.org/. - - Internet Relay Chat (IRC) - - The PSPSDK developers can be found hanging out in the #pspdev channel - on irc.freenode.net. - -Thanks - The pspsdk developers wish to thank all the people who have contributed - bug fixes, ideas and support for the project. - Also big thanks to nem for kicking off PSP development with all his work, - the original imports system is based on his work in the hello world demo.
