- loading default bochsrc for the wx gui no longer necessary
- the wx gui version of bochs now accepts the same command line arguments as
the other guis
to "*_ENABLED"
- bx_serial_options for all 4 ports moved into an array com[4]
- serial port com1 is enabled by default
- detection of com2, com3 and com4 config options disabled for now
- new parameter "enabled" added to the serial bochsrc options
- error handling for serial and parallel bochsrc options changed. The unhandled
BX_PANICs are replaced by BX_ERRORs.
- new function bx_write_serial_options() added
- serial destructor restores original terminal settings only when serial port
is enabled and the tty_id is valid
parport1 with the new option "enabled". The old option "enable" only
controlled the output. The parport1 is enabled with no output by default.
Changes:
* bochrc option "enable" replaced by "enabled"
* parport option "Oenable" replaced by "Opresent"
* bx_parport_options par1 and par2 replaced by an array par[2]
* initialize parport1 resources only when enabled
* renamed variable "parport_init_list" to "par_ser_init_list" since it
contains parport and serial options
* documentation and bochsrc updates
- the parport variables "output" and "initmode" now belong to the bx_par_t
structure
- TODO: add parport2 (disabled by default), parport detection in the bios
installation dependent values in a global configuration file. If you are
including such a file, you only need to define the disk images and other
guest OS dependent stuff.
- new command line option '-q' (quickstart) added (the same as '-nocp')
- new command line option '-qf' (quickstart + config file) added (the same as
'-nocp -f')
- missing initialization of Ouser_shortcut in bx_options added
- PCI configuration space of the host bridge renamed from array[] to pci_conf[]
- new functions load_ROM() and mem_read() for ROM access
- macros for PCI functions defined in bochs.h
(from plex86 curses.cc)
- set the log action for the log level "panic" to "fatal", because the "ask"
menu causes trouble in the terminal
- logfile output to stderr not allowed
- handle_events(): type of variable 'character' must be 'int'
- two terminal chars added in function get_term_char()
- bit 7 of the vga attribute enables the A_REVERSE flag of the terminal char
(from plex86 curses.cc)
- variable term_attr no longer necessary in function text_update()
- function keys are working now
- clear_screen() function works now
- a few special vga characters converted to terminal characters
- exit() now clears the screen and calls endwin()
- "[TERM]" removed from info/error messages
- debug messages changed to BX_DEBUG
bitmaps. The bochs window now consists of 3 windows: the main window and
it's child windows simulation window and toolbar window.
Changes:
- new windows "mainWnd" and "simWnd" replace the old "hwnd"
- moved the functions of the old window procedure to the new ones
- toolbar functions added in create_bitmap(), headerbar_bitmap() and
replace_bitmap()
- function show_headerbar() no longer needed (must be present for
compatibility)
- a few variables for the headerbar changed or removed
- bitmap and headerbar variables now initialized in specific_init()
- added atapi layer
- updated int13_cdrom, int13_eltorito and int13_cdemu
- added verious DEBUG_XXX to debug only parts of the bios, because we're running low on data space in debug mode
- added a fix so bcc generates good code when #asm follows if or while statements
