- the options 'keyboard paste delay', 'mouse' and 'vga update interval' are now
available at runtime
- wxdialog.h: unnecessary comments removed
- new bx_list_c for keyboard options (used in wx, TODO in textconfig)
- new flag USE_BOX_TITLE controls the usage of the list name for the group box label
- wxdialog.cc: unused variable removed
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".

For a whole lot of configure options, I put #if...#endif around code that
is specific to the option, even in files which are normally only compiled
when the option is on. This allows me to create a MS Visual C++ 6.0
workspace that supports many of these options. The workspace will basically
compile every file all the time, but the code for disabled options will
be commented out by the #if...#endif.
This may one day lead to simplification of the Makefiles and configure
scripts, but for the moment I'm leaving Makefiles and configure scripts
alone.

bx_list_c can now be displayed as either a wxStaticBox with the
child parameters inside, or as a wxNotebook with each child
parameter in a separate tab. (The children can also be lists of
course.) The default display is the wxStaticBox type, but if you
set the option bit bx_list_c::USE_TAB_WINDOW in the list,
ParamDialog will use the wxNotebook display instead.
- to get the param trees working, I created a new struct
AddParamContext, which is passed to AddParam(). This struct is
critical when AddParam calls itself recursively to display lists
within lists.
- use the wxNotebook display feature for the ATA0,1,2,3 controller
dialog box. Now instead of being hundreds of pixels tall, it is
reasonable height with three different tabs. This fixed bug
#619074: "wx: ATA interface editor too tall" and was the whole
reason I started messing with this at all.
plus some minor cleanups
- when I added the enum constant bx_list_c::USE_TAB_WINDOW, I also
removed the BX_ prefix from all the other enum constants that are
used in parameter options in siminterface.cc. Since these constants
are enums within a class, there is no possibility of namespace
conflicts so the prefix is not needed.
- added wxADJUST_MINSIZE to all wxChoice controls, since that tells
wxWindows to adjust its size to the length of the longest string.
- instead of calling SetSize or SetSizeHints on every textcontrol with
a hardcoded width, I am using just two wxSize specifications for
everything: either normalTextSize or longTextSize.
- edit names of a few menus and params. For example now instead of
the tab saying "Master ATA device on channel 0" it will say
"First HD/CD on channel 0".

"no change" are selected, set both the default log action and the
specific log action for all devices.
- AdvancedLogOptionsDialog: store the wxChoice*'s in a 2d array since I
have to refer to them later.
- since both the log options and advanced log options dialogs needed to
create many wxChoices using similar rules, I moved the creation code
into a utility function makeLogOptionChoiceBox.
- I finally discovered the wxADJUST_MINSIZE option to wxSizer::Add(),
which solves some layout problems that I was having with wxChoices.
With this setting, the wxChoice will automatically grow to the size of
the largest string that can be selected.
- improve sizing of the scrollWin according to the desired size of the panel
that contains all the wxChoices.
- add sketches for proposed dialog that combines both LogOptionsDialog and
AdvancedLogOptionsDialog using tabs
wxWindows without debugger, I needed to add some more cases of
#if BX_DEBUGGER to make it work. It is certainly possible to
handle such problems by always compiling in the debug dialogs but
only instantiating them if debug support is compiled in, but I have
chosen (for now) to put #if BX_DEBUGGER around things like this.

printed to stderr in the text debugger. Also allows the user to
type (text) debugger commands directly, which also appear in the log.
- all text output in the debugger now passes through dbg_printf()
(used to be fprintf to stderr) so that in wxWindows I can redirect
it all to the wxWindows debug log screen. Added debug_fputs to
siminterface which actually sends the text to the GUI by creating
a BX_ASYNC_EVT_DBG_MSG event.
- changed prefix and msg fields of BxLogMsgEvent to const char *,
and also in args of logmsg method of siminterface.
- don't trap SIGINT in wxWindows. There are other ways to stop execution.
Also, signal handling with multiple threads is very strange and different
on different platforms.
- minor changes to fix gcc -Wall warnings in dbg_main.cc
- add a new boolean parameter BXP_DEBUG_RUNNING that tells if the debugger is
running freely or not. This is used by the wxWindows GUI to enable or
disable certain choices.
- CpuRegistersDialog has continue,stop,step buttons. When the sim is running
freely, I disable continue and step, and enable stop. When the sim stops
to wait for the user, I disable stop and enable continue and step. The
change of enables used to be triggered by actually pressing the button,
but then if you started/stopped the simulation in some other way (typing
in debug log window) the enables were never changed. Now the enables are
controlled by the value of BXP_DEBUG_RUNNING, which is set by the debug code
itself, and the buttons are enabled at the right time.
- ParamDialog::Refresh() is now virtual so that child classes can redefine
its refresh behavior.
- in safeWxStrcpy, force the last element of the array to be a 0, since
I noticed that strncpy is not guaranteed to terminate the string!

Bochs debugger. The Bochs debugger calls SIM->debug_get_next_command() which
does not return until a debugger command is found. The siminterface sends an
synchronous event to the wxWindows thread with a blank to be filled in with a
debugger command. wxWindows fills in the blank and sends the synchronous
event back, and the Bochs debugger interprets it as if it was typed on
the command line. For the long term I haven't decided whether to stick with
sending text strings vs. some other method.
- so far the wxWindows debugger consists of one big dialog box that shows
all the standard registers, and a working Continue, Stop, and Step button.
- modify ParamDialog so that it is more useful as a base class, by moving
some things to protected members&fields, separating out functionality
that is most likely to be replaced into virtual functions, and making it
generally more flexible. The new CpuRegistersDialog is based on
ParamDialog.
- in wxdialog.cc, continue the convention of using wxID_HELP, wxID_OK,
wxID_CANCEL, etc. for the id's of buttons, instead of wxHELP, wxOK, etc.

where they don't exist. Add an eflags shadow parameter that represents all
of the bits of eflags at once. There are also boolean shadow params for
each bit.

Description:
Second try at implementing the "Debug:Show Cpu" and "Debug:Show
Keyboard" dialog with values that change as the simulation proceeds.
(Nobody gets to see the first try.) This is the first step toward
making something resembling a wxWindows debugger.
First, variables which are going to be visible in the CI must be
registered as parameters. For some variables, it might be acceptable
to change them from Bit32u into bx_param_num_c and access them only
with set/get methods, but for most variables it would be a horrible
pain and wreck performance.
To deal with this, I introduced the concept of a shadow parameter. A
normal parameter has its value stored inside the struct, but a shadow
parameter has only a pointer to the value. Shadow params allow you to
treat any variable as if it was a parameter, without having to change
its type and access it using get/set methods. Of course, a shadow
param's value is controlled by someone else, so it can change at any
time.
To demonstrate and test the registration of shadow parameters, I
added code in cpu/init.cc to register a few CPU registers and
code in iodev/keyboard.cc to register a few keyboard state values.
Now these parameters are visible in the Debug:Show CPU and
Debug:Show Keyboard dialog boxes.
The Debug:Show* dialog boxes are created by the ParamDialog class,
which already understands how to display each type of parameter,
including the new shadow parameters (because they are just a subclass
of a normal parameter class). I have added a ParamDialog::Refresh()
method, which rereads the value from every parameter that it is
displaying and changes the displayed value. At the moment, in the
Debug:Show CPU dialog, changing the values has no effect. However
this is trivial to add when it's time (just call CommitChanges!). It
wouldn't really make sense to change the values unless you have paused
the simulation, for example when single stepping with the debugger.
The Refresh() method must be called periodically or else the dialog
will show the initial values forever. At the moment, Refresh() is
called when the simulator sends an async event called
BX_ASYNC_EVT_REFRESH, created by a call to SIM->refresh_ci ().
Details:
- implement shadow parameter class for Bit32s, called bx_shadow_num_c.
implement shadow parameter class for Boolean, called bx_shadow_bool_c.
more to follow (I need one for every type!)
- now the simulator thread can request that the config interface refresh
its display. For now, the refresh event causes the CI to check every
parameter it is watching and change the display value. Later, it may
be worth the trouble to keep track of which parameters have actually
changed. Code in the simulator thread calls SIM->refresh_ci(), which
creates an async event called BX_ASYNC_EVT_REFRESH and sends it to
the config interface. When it arrives in the wxWindows gui thread,
it calls RefreshDialogs(), which calls the Refresh() method on any
dialogs that might need it.
- in the debugger, SIM->refresh_ci() is called before every prompt
is printed. Otherwise, the refresh would wait until the next
SIM->periodic(), which might be thousands of cycles. This way,
when you're single stepping, the dialogs update with every step.
- To improve performance, the CI has a flag (MyFrame::WantRefresh())
which tells whether it has any need for refresh events. If no
dialogs are showing that need refresh events, then no event is sent
between threads.
- add a few defaults to the param classes that affect the settings of
newly created parameters. When declaring a lot of params with
similar settings it's more compact to set the default for new params
rather than to change each one separately. default_text_format is
the printf format string for displaying numbers. default_base is
the default base for displaying numbers (0, 16, 2, etc.)
- I added to ParamDialog to make it able to display modeless dialog
boxes such as "Debug:Show CPU". The new Refresh() method queries
all the parameters for their current value and changes the value in
the wxWindows control. The ParamDialog class still needs a little
work; for example, if it's modal it should have Cancel/Ok buttons,
but if it's going to be modeless it should maybe have Apply (commit
any changes) and Close.
values. All wxWindows dialogs return wxID_OK or wxID_CANCEL. The
wxOK and wxCANCEL symbols are ONLY used in input arguments that determine
whether to display the ok and cancel buttons. Now I'm doing the same.
Return values are wxID_OK if they pressed the ok button, and wxID_CANCEL
if they pressed cancel.
has a 16bit signed value. If you try to set the max above 32767, it
overflows and does stupid things. To combat this tendency, I now use
the SPINCTRL_FIX_MAX(x) macro when setting the max range of a spinctrl.
On platforms that need it, this will saturate the range at 32767.
