Source Code

This page provides details about accessing the source code for the PC based Transputer emulator, alternative itools used to compile and various other helpful advise.

PC based combined Inmos T414 transputer emulator and host file server (Jserver) Source Code

The source code for jserver is NO LONGER available for downloading from this website. However, Andras Pahia has a working version of Julian Highfield's original code supporting both T4 and T8 emulation. See https://github.com/pahihu/t4 for his emulator and source code.

Occam itools Collection

I have provided (see attached) the .bat files for remaking the .exe files, for those of you who do not want to install the Inmos Occam toolset in the standard directories (i.e. c:\d7205\ ) and use with the T414 emulator. Simply edit the .bat files using a suitable text editor, change paths, save and then run a suitable bat2exe utility to create the new .exe files. Place the new .exe files in the directory where the original Inmos .exe files (i.e. oc.exe) reside. Remember to delete the Inmos .exe files. Refer to Installation Instructions.

Suitable bat2exe utilities are Quick Batch file compiler (Quickbfc link) or Advanced BAT to EXE Converter (Adv bat2exe link).

IDE Tools

The jserver executable (up to and including jserver version 4.5) has been compiled using the Bloodshed Dev-C++ full-featured Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for the C/C++ programming language. The following is a link to the Bloodshed Dev-C++ IDE website (refer to Bloodshedsoftware).

The jserver executable version 4.6 onwards have been compiled using Microsoft visual C++ studio 2010 express (refer to http://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/downloads/).

Text Editor

I used the excellent Notepad++ for writing C code. The developers website is here: Notepad++. For viewing some of the huge text files created when debugging the jserver instruction cycle operations, I use the very fast to open (>2Gbytes file size) EditPad Lite.
