[hatari-devel] program autostart, visual studio Hatari compilation

[Paweł Góralski <pgoralski@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello everyone,
Currently I'm trying to make my life less miserable by reducing 
iteration times. I usually launch everything with uiptool on real 
machines, but this time I'm experimenting with emulator. I've tried to 
autostart Hatari (latest official version 2.3.1) with native debugger 
(via --auto) and passing my program name/path (,which could also have 
additional parameters too by the way) and it looks like I can't do it. 
Yes, I know about built-in debugger, but still there is no possibility 
to pass additional parameters to prg/ttp or I'm missing something?

After I've tried to pass additional path to binary after first one 
(something like '--auto "C:\WRKSPACE\GAME.TOS C:\WRKSPACE\GAME.TOS"'), I 
have warnings in Hatari console about clipping characters:
WARN : No GEMDOS dir 
'K:\Emulatory\DEV\GEMDOSHD\F030\C\WRKSPACE\game.tos\WRKSPACE'
WARN : have to clip 3 chars from 'GAME.TOS C:' extension!
(don't mind the exact names, game.tos is obfuscated adebug ;-) ).

Secondly, anyone has any successes with building Hatari with Visual 
Studio and CMake (VS2019 should have c99 support as far I know)? Any 
show stoppers before I dive in? On first glance SDL2 and other 
dependencies prebuild dependencies should be setup (without pkg-config) 
along with VS2019 custom flags.
