ARMSX1/ios

iOS host scaffold

This directory contains a minimal UIKit host for the shared libarmsx build. It embeds SDL2 as a dynamic framework and launches the native FSUI donor shell directly through external_main.

Layout

• Frameworks/ – drop SDL2.xcframework (built from commit 385e995790930bc70ce43533f621caedec033895) and the iOS-built libarmsx.dylib here.
• HostApp/ – source, Info.plist and an XcodeGen project.yml that describes a single-app target.
• bin/bios.bin – optional test BIOS is bundled (resource marked optional) so the iOS target can boot out-of-the-box during development.

Building libarmsx for iOS

./build.sh ios

This forces dynamic SDL, uses the iPhone SDK toolchain, and outputs bin/libarmsx.dylib for device (arm64). You can tweak IOS_SDK/IOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET as needed.

Generating/opening the app project

The HostApp/project.yml is XcodeGen-ready. After placing the frameworks:

cd ios/HostApp
xcodegen generate
open PSXEHost.xcodeproj

The target embeds both SDL2.xcframework and libarmsx.dylib into the app bundle and runs external_main on launch using the host UIWindow. There is no React Native, CocoaPods, or JS bundle step in the iOS flow anymore.
