Method Detail
-
addCPUListener
void addCPUListener(CPU.CPUListener listener)
Adds the specified CPU listener to receive CPU events from this CPU.CPU events occur when CPU changes its state, or run state. CPU state events don't occur if CPU is running, only happens with run state changes. If listener is
null
, no exception is thrown and no action is performed.- Parameters:
listener
- the CPU listener
-
removeCPUListener
void removeCPUListener(CPU.CPUListener listener)
Removes the specified CPU listener so that it no longer receives CPU events from this CPU.CPU events occur when CPU changes its state, or run state. CPU state events don't occur if CPU is running, only happens with run state changes. If listener is
null
, no exception is thrown and no action is performed.- Parameters:
listener
- the CPU listener to be removed
-
step
void step()
Perform one step of CPU emulation. It means that one instruction should be executed. CPU state changes to state "running", then it executes one instruction, and then it should return to state "breakpoint" or "stopped". Correct timing of executed instruction isn't so important.
-
execute
void execute()
Runs CPU emulation. Change state of CPU to "running" and start instruction fetch/decode/execute loop.The emuStudio creates separate thread for this purpose.
While CPU is running, the emuStudio will not allow to call method
step()
.A good CPU should performs right timing for instructions here. Debug window should not be updated after each instruction execution, in order to the execution loop would be faster.
-
pause
void pause()
Pauses the CPU emulation. If a thread was used for CPU execution and is running, then it should be stopped (destroyed) but the CPU state has to be saved for future run. CPU changes it state to "breakpoint".
-
stop
void stop()
Stops the CPU emulation. If a thread was used for CPU execution and is running, then it should be stopped (destroyed) but the CPU state can be saved. CPU changes its state to "stopped" and main module should now forbid execution any of methodsstep()
,pause()
,execute()
until user resets the CPU. Debug window in main module should be updated with saved CPU state.
-
getStatusPanel
javax.swing.JPanel getStatusPanel()
Get CPU status panel.Each CPU plugin must have a status panel that shows some important CPU status (e.g. registers, flags, run state, etc.) and allows to manage some settings (e.g. a runtime frequency, etc.).
This panel is located on the right side in the "emulation" panel of the main module.
CPU itself should take care about updating the panel when it is appropriate.
- Returns:
- CPU status panel
-
isBreakpointSupported
boolean isBreakpointSupported()
Determine whether breakpoints are supported by CPU.- Returns:
- true if breakpoints are supported, false otherwise
-
setBreakpoint
void setBreakpoint(int location)
Set a breakpoint at a memory location.Does nothing if breakpoints are not supported.
- Parameters:
location
- memory location where the breakpoint will be set- Throws:
java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException
- if the memLocation is out of bounds- See Also:
isBreakpointSupported()
-
unsetBreakpoint
void unsetBreakpoint(int location)
Unset a breakpoint at a memory location.Does nothing if breakpoints are not supported.
- Parameters:
location
- memory location from where the breakpoint will be unset- Throws:
java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException
- if the memLocation is out of bounds- See Also:
isBreakpointSupported()
-
isBreakpointSet
boolean isBreakpointSet(int location)
Determine if a breakpoint is set at a memory location.- Parameters:
location
- memory location, from where the breakpoint will be determined- Returns:
- true if breakpoint is set in the location, false otherwise or if breakpoints are not supported.
- Throws:
java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException
- if the memLocation is out of bounds- See Also:
isBreakpointSupported()
-
reset
void reset(int location)
Resets the CPU and sets instruction position to given program location.- Parameters:
location
- Program location in memory
-
getInstructionLocation
int getInstructionLocation()
Get memory location of an instruction which will be emulated as next.Instruction position is more "abstract" name for "program counter", which is mostly used in 8-bit architectures.
- Returns:
- memory location of an instruction which will be emulated as next
-
setInstructionLocation
boolean setInstructionLocation(int location)
Set memory location of an instruction which will be emulated as next.Instruction position is more "abstract" name for "program counter", which is mostly used in 8-bit architectures.
This method is called by emuStudio application when a user perform "jump to address" operation.
- Parameters:
location
- new address of actual instruction- Returns:
- true if operation was successful, false otherwise
-
getDisassembler
Disassembler getDisassembler()

There are two ways to use this utility: on web components or on other elements.
Web Components
To use it web components:
- Add it to the component's array of behaviors: behaviors: [ ResponsiveUtilityBehaviors ],
- Optional: If you wish to override the default properties:
this.attribute = "custom-attribute-name-here"; //optional: custom attribute name, default is
"responsive-size"
this.relativeToParent = false; //optional: false for media query behavior; default is true for element
query behvavior
this.sm = 400; //custom sm breakpoint; default is 600
this.md = 800; //custom md breakpoint; default is 900
this.lg = 1200; //custom lg breakpoint; default is 1200
this.xl = 1600; //custom xl breakpoint; default is 1500
Other Elements
To use it on other elements:
- Use a script to call the utility:
<script>
window.ResponsiveUtility.requestAvailability();
var el = document.getElementById('element-id-here');
el.fire('responsive-element',{
"element": el,
"attribute": "responsive-size", //optional: custom attribute name, default is
"responsive-size"
"relativeToParent": true, //optional: false for media query behavior; default
is true for element query behvavior

In a lattice in two-dimensional space the Gaussian algorithm finds reliably a shortest vector. It works similar to the Euclidean algorithm for the greatest common divisor gcd of two integers, because after each step, the basis improves by a shorter vector. In this case the longer vector b2 is iteratively subtracted by an integer multiple of the shorter vector b1. The subtrahend is the component of b2 which points in the direction of b1 (see figure). With this operation the linear independence is maintained. After the substraction b2 gets smaller and so does ||b1|| * ||b2||. Since there is an finite number of lattice points the algorithm terminates in any case.
The angle between the two vectors is at the end between 60° and 120°. One can easily see that a reduced basis approximates the 90° angle.

Milk, Yogurt, and Cheese
Why are milk products important?
Milk, yogurt, and cheese are the best source of calcium needed for healthy bones and teeth. Calcium is important during the teenage growth spurt and also for older adults.  When choosing foods from this shelf have milk and yogurt more often than cheese. If the family prefer skimmed milk, remember it is not suitable for children under 5. Low fat milk is not suitable for children under 2. If dairy products have to be avoided, have calcium and vitamin D enriched soya products. Vitamin D helps you absorb calcium better.
The Food Guide Pyramid suggests 2 to 3 servings of milk, yogurt, and cheese a day—2 for most people, and 3 for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, teenagers, and young adults to age 24.
 They are lowest in fat.
- 1-1/2 to 2 ounces of cheese and 8 ounces of yogurt count as a serving from this group because they supply the same amount of calcium as 1cup of milk.
- Cottage cheese is lower in calcium than most cheeses. One cup of cottage cheese counts as only 1/2 serving of milk.
- Go easy on high fat cheese and ice cream.They can add a lot of fat (especially saturated fat) to your diet.
- Choose “part skim”or lowfat cheeses when available and lower fat milk desserts, like ice milk or frozen yogurt.
**Children aged 9-18 years need 5 servings a day.
Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding need 3 servings a day.

Epstein jail guards plead not guilty
by Associated PressNEW YORK (AP) – Two jail guards charged with falsifying prison records the night Jeffrey Epstein killed himself have pleaded not guilty.
A grand jury indictment made public Tuesday accused guards Tova Noel and Michael Thomas of failing to perform checks on Epstein every half hour, as required, and of fabricating log entries to show they had.
Noel and Thomas will both be released on $100,000 bond.
A lawyer for Thomas, Montell Figgins, said earlier Tuesday both guards are being “scapegoated.”
Epstein was found dead in his cell in August as he awaited trial on sex trafficking charges.
New York City’s medical examiner ruled Epstein’s death a suicide.

The Art Gallery will be opening to an invitation-only group of art enthusiasts across the country on December 1, 2013.
The opening of the Art Gallery will coincide with the release of several of Armando Blontio's finest art pieces, including, "Crème de la Crème," which has a mounting anticipation for its debut.
As a frequently misrespresented artist, Armando Blontio has struggled to uphold his image amidst the criticism. "I hope to dispel the illusion of my self-centeredness, as seen by my critics, with the Art Gallery opening," said Mr. Blontio.

BY EDWIN JAHIEL
BEFORE NIGHT FALLS (2000) *** Directed by Julian Schnabel. Written by Cunningham O'Keefe, Lazaro Gomez Carriles, Mr. Schnabel, from the memoirs by Reinaldo Arenas. Photography, Xavier Perez Grobet, Guillermo Rosas. Editing, Michael Berenbaum. Production design, Salvador Parra. Art direction, Antonio Muno-Hierro. Costumes, Maria Estela Fernandez. Music, Carter Burwell. Additional music, Laurie Anderson, Lou Reed. Cast: Javier Bardem (as Reinaldo Arenas), Oliver Martinez, Andrea Di Stefano, Johnny Depp, Sean Penn, Michael Wincott, Olatz Lopez Garmendia, Vito Maria Schnabel, Najwa Nimri, Hector Babenco, Jerzy Skolimowski, Sebastian Silva, et al. A Fine Line film. 135 minutes. R (sexuality, violence, language)
Painter-sculptor Julian Schnabel entered filmmaking with "Basquiat" (1996), about the graffiti street artist who briefly rose to fame. "Before Night Falls," Schnabel's second feature, centers on Cuban writer Reinaldo Arenas who is not a household name in North America. To what extent he is or was famous in Cuba, a small nation with a big interest in the arts, is not explicited in the movie. It does not matter much, however.
Arenas, born in 1943, was a poor peasant boy with a rich gift for poetry. He must have been 15 when he joined the Castro-led uprisings (December 1956 on...) against corrupt dictator (and former sergeant) Fulgencio Batista, who had to flee Cuba on January 1, 1959.
The Revolution at first seemed to be good for Arenas. He received an education, found employment, wrote prose and poetry, won a major prize for a book, made friends both in and out literary circles. His friends were, it would seem, overwhelmingly gay.
Per the movie, by Castro-ite standards, intellectuals and/or artists are counter-revolutionary. The mere suspicion of political incorrectness may make someone an object of persecution, and almost guarantees it when the subject practices homosexuality, which Arenas did on a very large scale.
You cannot neatly separate fantasy from fact or near-fact in this movie, and this too does not matter. Arenas's first book was the only one published in Cuba, and found unacceptable by the authorities for reasons unspecified and only hinted at. Arenas, becomes a persona non grata, is oppressed, suppressed, persecuted for his life-style and associations, even framed. He is arbitrarily and repeatedly jailed under abject, near-infernal conditions, thrown into a pile of true criminals, and perhaps other railroaded innocents.
He manages to survive and to smuggle to Europe his subsequent works. In one such case it is BonBon, a flaming transvestite allowed prison visits --for unexplained reasons-- who carries a manuscript in an odd part of his anatomy. He is played by Johnny Depp. Depp makes another appearance as a rather elegant Lieutenant who runs a prison and applies smoothly sadistic methods to get sexual gratification from Arenas. (Much earlier in the movie Sean Penn, unrecognizable, had given a ride in his cart to the teenage Reinaldo)
The acting of Javier Bardem (b. 1969) is outstandingly diverse, powerful and convincing --you keep your eyes glued on him. It's got to be in his genes. He comes from a family of Spanish thespians-- grandparents, parents and siblings-- many of them famous. Uncle Juan Antonio Bardem (b. 1922) was active until recently as director and scriptwriter. In the 1950s cinephiles used to sum up Spain's cinema as "the three Bs: Bunuel, Berlanga and Bardem."
Javier Bardem has acted in two dozen movies, but in the USA the public-at-large has probably seen him only in "High Heels" by Almodovar and "Jamon, jamon" by Bigas Luna.
This is neither a "normal" nor an "academic" or a "reportorial" biography of Arenas, but a fascinating mix of realism, ultra-realism, surrealism, dreams, true as well as invented documentary footage, poetry, fantasy, political criticism.
In a striking, memorable apocalyptic sequence, social outcasts live among ruins, feast, copulate, and are fitting a hot-air balloon to escape to Florida. There is voice-over recitation and excellent Cuban or Cuban-inspired music. The well-filled two-and-a-quarter hours capture moods, mores, tragedy, some humor, life, sadness, joyfulness, pain, history, within a life under pressure. All this is not amount an orderly description of our hero/anti-hero. Though confusing at times it is a rich tossed salad whose main ingredient is Arenas.
In 1980, Castro allowed the departure of "undesirables" of all hues, including homosexuals and many criminals, by opening the harbor of Mariel for several months. 125,000 Cubans thus emigrated to the USA. One of them was Arenas. He spent 10 years in New York, then died of AIDS.
The film is oddly and arbitrarily bilingual, alternating in Spanish (subtitled) and English (with a Spanish accent). As Yul Brynner would say "it is a puzzlement." But what is an admirable puzzle is how most of the movie was shot in Mexico where it recreated so well the sights, sounds, people in their very Cuban-looking racial mixtures, streets, crumbling buildings, and all else with a precision that can fool even those who know the island. Additionally, what I suspect to be New York footage shot on video adds a special grittiness to the last part of the film. Ordinary studio sets and special effects pale by comparison.

Stack configuration macros specify, which parts of the stack will be enabled.
Default values for stack configuration macros are set in corresponding header files. The same default values are also provided in this file, but only for documentation generator. Default values can be overridden by CO_driver_target.h file. If specified so, they can further be overridden by CO_driver_custom.h file.
Stack configuration macro is specified as bits, where each bit enables/disables some part of the configurable CANopenNode object. Flags are used for enabling or checking specific bit. Multiple flags can be ORed together.
Some functionalities of CANopenNode objects, enabled by configuration macros, requires some objects from Object Dictionary to exist. Object Dictionary configuration must match Stack configuration.
