Summary: Replace asmjs with wasm for Emscripten builds
Product: SDL Reporter: Caleb Cornett <spydog>

Status: RESOLVED FIXED QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>

Description Caleb Cornett 2020-05-13 01:12:58 UTC 
Since asm.js has been effectively superseded by WebAssembly, it would be nice to have Buildbot generate wasm archives instead of asmjs.

If I understand correctly, the only change required to SDL's source would be in build-scripts/emscripten-buildbot.sh: "--host=asmjs-unknown-emscripten" would become "--host=wasm-unknown-emscripten".

The emsdk on the Buildbot machine may need to be updated as well.
Comment 1 Ryan C. Gordon 2020-05-13 02:16:39 UTC 
Agreed, it’s time to do this. Everything either supports wasm now or isn’t going to be useful with asm.js anyhow.

I changed this in https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/dc7142e7b47e, but the buildbot is being upgraded right now, so stay tuned for that!
