I'm sure it will be obvious when told, but where did m6502 move to?

Anyone? What am I missing? I think m6502 disappeared around .144 unless it got consumed by another architecture, but I just don't see which one it would be in.

Unidasm doesn't work with the 'generated' cores, so vanished when the core was rewritten, yes.

Thanks for the response. I didn't realize the core was rewritten. I'm not familiar with what a generated core is though.

Rather than having the source code for the 6502 core itself checked into the repository, the "source" is actually a more high-level way of defining the core, which is parsed at build time in order to generate the .h and .cpp files necessary to compile the core. Currently, the M68000 and 6502 cores are like that, I believe.

Interesting, not sure how I missed that in the release notes.

Do you think adding the generated core support to unidasm will be in the works? Not sure if anyone else uses unidasm.

6809 and H8 are that way too.
