emscripten_load_state missing about halfix

[pgodwin]

I quickly added in

EMSCRIPTEN_KEEPALIVE
void emscripten_load_state(void){
    state_read_from_file("");
}

Which seems to load state correctly. However, loading it with a drive image specified (http://localhost:8080/?hda=os2&savestate=states/os2) causes the XHR paths to be corrupted for subsequent disk access. Ie http://localhost:8080/%C2%88%7F%01%C2%88%7F%01%10/blk0000000b.bin.gz which obviously don't work

Using it without savestate= works, with the expected XHR URLS (Eg http://localhost:8080/os2/blk00000000.bin.gz). So I suspect something is getting overriden when state is loaded, but unsure where.

after an embarrassing amount of time trying to work this out, uncommenting this line fixed it.

halfix/src/drive.c

Line 565 in 9252775

//state_field(obj, 4, "path_count", &this->path_count);

Savestates were primarily used for debugging (shorten boot times) and added to the browser version as an afterthought. That's the reason behind the (currently unused) jszip.min.js dependency in index.html. Theoretically, they should work, but I've run into some problems regarding them. I tried it with Windows XP a few months ago and the whole system BSOD'ed on me after a few seconds, likely due to hard drive problems.

They work like a charm on the native version, provided that all settings are identical, but at the moment, they're not very "user-friendly," requiring you to comment/uncomment a preprocessor macro. Browser support has historically been much more flaky, but I'm also interested in getting savestates to work to speed up boot times.

They're quite handy :)

Here's OS2 2.0 which seems to work with Halfix. https://labs.obsoletemadness.com/labs/halfix/index.html?hda=os2&savestate=states/os2
