panel. It gives the user the option of continue this time, continue
and never ask again for this type of log message, or die.
- the communication between control.cc and siminterface.cc is still
somewhat crude. I'm trying to implement it so that a network
protocol based on this interface will be simple. I'll get this cleaned
up soon.
BX_USE_CONTROL_PANEL is set. I put the #if...#endif thing around
the entire file in siminterface.cc and control.cc so that it's safe
to compile them in either case.
writes a bochsrc for you.
- since there were two options related to logging, I moved them both
into a new struct called bx_log_options. This follows the pattern
used by other devices.
- in control.cc: removed option 1 from main menu, the one that said
"Read options from bochsrc.txt." This was identical to choosing
the next option, "Read options from..." and only saved you one
keystroke, so I removed it.
an fpos_t, use ftell which returns an int. Without the patch,
Bochs gets an fpos_t and assumes it is an integer type, but
on some systems (like linux with newer glibc libraries) this
assumption is wrong. Malte Cornils <malte@cornils.net> first
reported this bug, and he warned me that ftell may not be portable
to some platforms which treat binary and ascii streams differently.
I haven't found any alternative yet.
gui/control.cc and the simulator. Now all communication between
the control panel and the rest of bochs goes through an object
called bx_simulator_interface_c.
[ #430472 ] DOS HIMEM "A20 line" error
All I've done is moved the call to print_bios_banner later in the
boot process, and the A20 problem goes away. I wanted it early so
that it would get printed before any panic or halt could happen.
Oh well.
- remove --enable-external-cpu-memory
- Neither of these options were compiling anymore, and Kevin suggested:

by BCC generated data. This was pointed out by Tom Lindström
<tom@debet.shh.fi>, and I took his suggestion of moving the MP structures
to the end of the file.
