Looks like devkitPro has been busy these days trying to improve on his previous applications and libraries for the DS. Now, he presents us with a new version of the devkitPro Windows Installer/Updater plus updates on the libgba and libnds libraries.

Version 1.3.4 of the devkitPro installer/updater, which allows users to selectively download and install components of the devkitPro toolchains, includes Chishm's libfat that is now integrated to the devkitPro CVS. Normally, if you already have the old version installed, it will detect this new version and update automatically because of the auto update feature. But devkitPro says there was a problem with the previous version's auto updater, hence, you'd need to download this manually (download is provided below).

Also from devkitPro today are libgba and libnds libraries updates, which brings more compatibility between the two and making coding for both platform easier. Macros from libgba have now been added to libnds and changes (most apparent of which are in the interrupt system) have been implemented on libgba. The old functions on the libgba have been replaced with the naming scheme from libnds:

InitInterrupt replaced with irqInit
SetInterrupt replaced with irqSet
EnableInterrupt replaced with irqEnable
DisableInterrupt replaced with irqDisable

Other new things for libgba are the change from IE_ to IRQ_ on all interrupt masks and input functions (ScanKeys KeysHeld KeysDown KeysUp and KeysDownRepeat) being changed to the same scheme as libnds where initial letters start with a lower case. To know more about the library changes, just browse the online documents for the new updates.
