GB_run

Definition

unsigned GB_run(GB_gameboy_t *gb);

In gb.h

Description

Runs an emulator instance for an atomic amount of time (usually a single instruction). Returns the number of time passed, in units of 8MHz (8,388,608Hz) ticks. If SameBoy was not compiled with time keeping disabled, and turbo mode was not enabled, this function can potentially sleep before returning to keep a correct frame rate.

Thread Safety

GB_run must not be called if the instance is being run in any thread, including the current one (via a callback).
