- parameter tree structure updated (TODO: should be moved to development.dbk)
- code cleanup: bx_options stuff and obsolete parameter access methods removed
- TODO: rewrite of shadow parameter stuff (for subtree "save_restore")
- strdup() is necessary for the ata device name (master/slave)
- added missing initialization of the member 'enable_handler'
- clone() method now uses the original title for the new list
- siminterface get_param_*() methods num support a base parameter like the generic
get_param() method
- new parameter lists now also have a generated id
- test function print_tree() now handles enum parameters correctly
- proposed parameter tree updated
- clock/cmos menu added in textconfig and wx
- enum parameter type now supports new parameter handling
- long text format for numeric parameters added (useful when both textconfig and
wx are present)
- wx: handling of list flag USE_BOX_TITLE fixed
- textconfig: optional memory features moved to submenus
- siminterface generates a unique id for new parameters (used for wx dependencies)
- proposed parameter tree updated
- floppy options init code cleanup (still using old-style parameters)
- boolean parameter type now supports new parameter handling
- new parameter object constructors now supports label initialization
- bx_list_c constructor now supports title initialization
- textconfig: initial support for new parameter handling
- wx: missing CPU config dialog added
- wx: ParamDialog now handles disabled parameters correctly
- removed unnecessary spaces from function calls
* memory parameter handling rewritten (not yet complete)
* new reset() method for bx_list_c for recursive reset of all list members
* memory options in wx now handled in a ParamDialog (ConfigMemoryDialog removed)
* removed obsolete BXP_* constants in siminterface.h
* updated proposed parameter tree
- constant BX_N_OPTRAM_IMAGES for optional RAM images limit added
(no notify handler registered). The ask() function doesn't set the variable
bx_user_quit to 1 in that case. This prevents win32 from closing the console
window immediately in case of a bochsrc error.
(it was only present in bochsrc parser)
- floppy media type is now a runtime parameter (TODO: full media type support
needs some work in the floppy emulation code)
- floppy media type added to win32 floppy dialog
code. Up to 3 boot drives are supported now. TODO: new boot dialog for wx.
- config.cc: missing ask formats for enum parameters added
- wxdialog.cc: tab window now uses the label instead of the ask format if defined
bochs.h already not include iodev.h which reduces compilation dependences for almost all cpu and fpu files, now cpu files will not be recompiled if iodev includes was changed
- textconfig runtime menu: some options moved to submenu "Misc runtime options"
- bx_param_c: variable group_name and methods set_group() / get_group() added
- bx_list_c: new flag SHOW_GROUP_NAME added (used for SB16 options in runtime menu)
- siminterface: ask_filename() uses the prompt for the parameter name
- wx: missing title of the CMOS dialog added
- floppy path parameter names changed (used by win32config)
- user shortcut parameter description added
- pit: and time0: options are still supported but deprecated
- warn when parsing deprecated directives
- fix wrong number of ata_device_translation_names
- still to do:
- setting time0 to utc is not yet supported
- the man page, user guide and .bochsrc still need to be updated
with the new options
- add handlers called when a parameter is enabled or disabled.
This is useful for parameter dependent on another, that may
not wish to be enabled when its father parameter is enabled.
* changed all %ll format descriptions to FMT_LL macro so that
Microsoft Visual C works correctly (it uses %I64)
* missing type conversions added
* cdrom.cc: variable types for win32 fixed
* removed some unused variables in eth_win32.cc and harddrv.cc
* added missing includes in make_cmos_image.c and niclist.c
You can now choose for each disk on the ata interfaces the
disk mode, between :
- flat : one file flat layout
- concat : multiple files layout
- external : developer's specific, through a C++ class
- dll : developer's specific, through a DLL
- sparse : stackable, commitable, rollbackable
- vmware3 : vmware3 disk support
- undoable : flat file with commitable redolog
- growable : growing file
- volatile : flat file with volatile redolog
- z-undoable : gziped flat file with commitable redolog
- z-volatile : gziped flat file with volatile redolog
A new "bxcommit" utility can merge commitable redologs to
flat images.

- for MacOSX/Carbon, if you start the app by double clicking in the finder,
there is no text console. So in logfunctions::fatal(), display the
final message in a Carbon dialog instead of using fprintf.
- in the text-mode config interface, return an error code if the
user tries to use the text menus when there's no text console.
Back in bxmain() this error code causes a panic
"Bochs needed the text console, but it was not usable"
- if a config file was not found, normally we turn off quick start
and drop into the text menus. However in the no-console case the
text menus won't work, so we added a panic: Unable to start Bochs
without a bochsrc.txt and without a text console. This is a much
more useful error than the generic one above.
- removed ensure_text_console() which was making matters worse instead
of better.

completely ignored and Bochs has always been returning 0. Now Bochs should
exit with the proper exit code.
- implementation: BX_EXIT(exitcode) calls SIM->quit_sim(exitcode).
quit_sim stores the exit code in the SIM object, then uses longjmp
to unwind the stack and return to main(). main() calls
SIM->get_exit_code() to retrieve the exit code and returns it.
- If you are wondering why we don't just call exit(exitcode), it is
because in the wxWindows interface all of the CPU simulation runs as one
thread while the user interface runs as another thread. With the longjmp
technique the simulation thread ends cleanly and it is possible to
start a new simulation thread without making a new process.
eject, insert, eject, etc. several extra times before allowing you to
actually change the CD. The extra insert/eject cycles were coming from the
param handlers for cdrom status and for the cdrom pathname. To fix this, I
changed wxdialog.cc and textconfig.cc to only call set() on parameters if
they are different from the original value. Now it generally does what you
would expect.
- to change physical CD: change the Bochs CD status to "ejected". On some OSes
that will actually eject it, but on others it will simply close the file so
that the eject button will actually work. Then put the new CD into the
drive, and change the Bochs CD status to "inserted".

the first hard drive or first cdrom drive no matter where they are found.
Now the wxWindows interface recognizes this fact. It allows you to
select HD boot if there is a hard drive in any ATA location, and
select CDROM boot if there is a cdrom in any ATA location.
- this fixes bug [ 616139 ] wx: boot hd/cd must be in ata0 interface

This fixes bug #614724: SDL can get stuck in full-screen mode, and provides
a framework for fixing the problem on other full-screen display libraries
such as term, svga, etc.
- add virtual method bx_gui::set_display_mode(mode) which can be overridden
by each display library class, if appropriate. This method is primarily
used when you run Bochs full screen, to tell the gui to switch from full
screen back to a mode where you can use the text console.
- There are two display modes: config and simulation. The mode is changed to
config mode during logfunctions::ask, during the runtime configuration menu,
and before displaying a debugger prompt. It is changed back to simulation
mode whenever instructions are running.
- Instead of being called directly through the global bx_gui pointer, the
bx_gui_c::set_display_mode() method is almost always accessed through
siminterface, like this:
SIM->set_display_mode (DISP_MODE_CONFIG);
SIM->set_display_mode (DISP_MODE_SIM);
Of course siminterface just passes the call on to bx_gui::set_display_mode().
I added it to siminterface so that the config interfaces could call it.
(They don't #include bochs.h so they can't access bx_gui.)

there is one more option in the configuration file "debugger_log"
if the debugger is compiled in, all debugger output will be also
written to this file. Note: wxWindow config interface is not updated yet
- The Bochs debugger uses BX_WITH_WX to decide to change to wxWindows debugger
behavior: sending a synchronous message to the config interface to get a new
command, sending all dbg_printf output to the config interface, deciding
whether to trap control-C, etc. But now that it's possible to compile with
BX_WITH_WX and BX_WITH_other_things, this isn't quite right anymore. With
this change, we now use calls to a new method SIM->is_wx_selected() to decide
which behavior to use. This method is equivalent to checking if the display
library variable is set to "wx", but it's implemented in such a way that it
only has to check a boolean for each call to SIM->is_wx_selected().
- in siminterface.cc, init some local variables to 0 to avoid compile
warnings.

New behaviour is:
. No command line arg (user want to load or create a new conf file)
-> no .bochsrc is loaded
-> defaults to "2. Read options from..."
. command line arg -q (user want to quick start from .bochsrc)
-> .bochsrc is loaded
-> if found Run the simulation
-> if not found defaults to "2. Read options from..."
. command line arg -f (user want to edit a conf file)
-> conf file is loaded
-> if found defaults to "3. Edit options"
-> if not found defaults to "2. Read options from..."
. command line arg -qf (user want to quick start from a conf file)
-> conf file is loaded
-> if found Run the simulation
-> if not found defaults to "2. Read options from..."
. After selection of "2. Read options from..."
-> defaults to "5. Begin simulation"
- fix "enable-control-panel" behaviour in configure.in.
- check if a romimage was supplied in the conf file.
If not, print a hint about a missing/corrupt conf file.
I hope I did not break anything, notably the Carbon gui
- add a new global struct bx_startup_flags which stores argc,argv and
when necessary, the WinMain arguments hInstance, hPrevInstance, etc.
The new struct is defined in gui/siminterface.h because it is needed in
both the main.cc code and in wxmain.cc and textconfig.cc (which don't
include bochs.h).
- rename main() to bxmain() and create new main() and WinMain().
main() and WinMain() just fill in the bx_startup_flags and then
call bxmain(). Only one is defined at a time, of course.
- so far, WinMain is ONLY used when compiling with wxWindows on win32.
It may be useful in other contexts as well, but I don't want to enable
it in any other situation without some serious testing of different
configurations.

- if translation=auto :
. translation=none if cylinders <=1024 and heads <=16
. translation=large if cylinders * heads <= 131072
. transaltion=lba otherwise
- changes default translation value to "auto"
- add example in .bochsrc
"bx_bool" which is always defined as Bit32u on all platforms. In Carbon
specific code, Boolean is still used because the Carbon header files
define it to unsigned char.
- this fixes bug [ 623152 ] MacOSX: Triple Exception Booting win95.
The bug was that some code in Bochs depends on Boolean to be a
32 bit value. (This should be fixed, but I don't know all the places
where it needs to be fixed yet.) Because Carbon defined Boolean as
an unsigned char, Bochs just followed along and used the unsigned char
definition to avoid compile problems. This exposed the dependency
on 32 bit Boolean on MacOS X only and led to major simulation problems,
that could only be reproduced and debugged on that platform.
- On the mailing list we debated whether to make all Booleans into "bool" or
our own type. I chose bx_bool for several reasons.
1. Unlike C++'s bool, we can guarantee that bx_bool is the same size on all
platforms, which makes it much less likely to have more platform-specific
simulation differences in the future. (I spent hours on a borrowed
MacOSX machine chasing bug 618388 before discovering that different sized
Booleans were the problem, and I don't want to repeat that.)
2. We still have at least one dependency on 32 bit Booleans which must be
fixed some time, but I don't want to risk introducing new bugs into the
simulation just before the 2.0 release.
