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
(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()
the guest OS. The shortcut can be defined in the bochsrc or in the config
interface. It is possible to change it at runtime.
These shortcuts are currently recognized:
ctrlaltdel, ctrlaltesc, ctrlaltf1, alttab
Here is the list of changes:
* userbutton.h and userbutton.xpm added in gui/bitmaps
* config options for the userbutton shortcut added
* initialize the new button in the gui.cc
* the new userbutton handler generates keypresses and relaeses depending on
the shortcut keyword
* the gui stops adding buttons to the headerbar if not enough space is left.
This can happen when the screen width is 320 pixels (done for X11 only).
* TODO: build a dialog box for the wxWindows gui
more work in the floppy and bios code.
- floppy and cdrom entries in the runtime config menu can be disabled if the
drive wasn't defined in bochsrc or start menu
- floppy variable "initial_status" and cdrom variable "inserted" renamed to
"status"
- unused variable *ips in function build_runtime_options_prompt() disabled
* new floppy type 360k can be used in .bochsrc and the config interface
* media type and geometry can be set for the floppy type
* BIOS changes to make 360k floppy drives work
* bximage can create 360k images now
to describe the format of the log prefix. This option can be any string
with special tokens being replaced at run time :
# %t : 11 decimal digits timer tick
# %i : 8 hexadecimal digits of cpu0 current eip
# %e : 1 character event type ('i'nfo, 'd'ebug, 'p'anic, 'e'rror)
# %d : 5 characters string of the device, between brackets
the default is "%t%i%d", so the logprefix is the same as before.
New tokens can be easily added or changed if needed.

* dimension_update() stores the global variables columns, rows and
font_height_orig; it uses X font sizes to recalculate the screen size
* text_update() uses the columns, rows and X font sizes when redrawing the
screen; it adjusts the cursor shape using the font sizes
- The emulated vga card issues a dimension_update() using the real
screen dimensions and the real font height.
- The gui selects a font with the requested height or it recalculates
the screen height if the font height is not available.
- The text_update() function uses a new variable 'ncols' instead of the
fixed value of 80 for the number of text columns.
I have tested the changes with X11/Linux, SDL, wxGTK and win32. The changes
in the other guis are not tested yet.
all of the window especially after a resize". This causes screen corruption
on my win98 box whenever Bochs changes resolution, so I removed it from cvs
and checked it in as patches/patch.win32-resize instead.
- added toggle_mouse_enable() call to the handling of the middle mouse button
- removed break statement between SDL_MOUSEBUTTONDOWN and SDL_MOUSEBUTTONUP
- added prefix "SDL" in specific init
GUI specific paste functions for X11 and WIN32 in paste_handler() moved to
the new function
- get_clipboard_text() prepared for other GUIs
- set_clipboard_text() has now a return value (0 = failed or not implemented)
- use portable code in copy_handler() if set_clipboard_text() fails
- snapshot_handler() prepared for adding a file dialog call
- writing snapshot file in binary mode (LF->CRLF conversion already done)
GUI specific copy functions for X11 and WIN32 in copy_handler() moved to
the new function
- set_clipboard_text() prepared for other GUIs
- value of text mode cursor variables fixed (and renamed in x.cc)
- BX_ERROR message in snapshot_handler() fixed
- paste: grabbing the data from the clipboard in win32 was not implemented
at all. I found some example code on usenet and adapted it for Bochs.
- keymap: now if you call loadKeymap with NULL for the function pointer,
it just fills in all the X windows keysyms with zero. Added a call
to loadKeymap in win32.cc.
copy to the clipboard so I removed them.
- I was having cygwin compile problems because <windows.h> was not always
included when compiling this file. Add an include of <windows.h> at
the top, and now it compiles in cygwin.
Here are the patches (without the serial name fix). Let me know if you want
me to change that. Oh, FYI, my changes also open up the com1 terminal in raw
mode, which makes the emulation much more accurate. You'll also notice that
I added infrastructure for com2->4 in the option parsing. I didn't add it to
the serial code, as I think a bunch of things need to be untangled before
that can work.
Added control for 80x50 fonts
Added mouse input
Added mouse grabbing
Added automatic mouse grabbing when entering full screen
Added autoremoval of header when going fullscreen
Simplified a couple of graphic routines
interface menus. Parallel port #1 is implemented, and I left stubs for
parallel port #2 in case we want to ever add it. If the parallel port
is enabled, the init method of parallel.cc does an fopen() on the output
file. If disabled, or if the fopen fails, the file handler remains
NULL and no characters are printed. There is no attempt to enable/disable
the operation of the parallel port, only the output to a file.
removed! I used this trick sometimes to check that a function returned
what I expected, like assert (func () == 0), but this caused the
func() to never get called. Oops.
will dump core, and the core can sometimes be loaded into the debugger
to give some hints as to what is going on. This could be especially
useful when the bochs debugger is off.
- try to do something reasonable when abort() doesn't exist on the system.
which were generated with gcc -MM to the end of each Makefile.in
so that make understands which files depend on which. Basically,
everything depends on bochs.h, which depends on everything, which
is not ideal.
- rework the order of initialization with and without the control panel.
The thing that was bothering me most was the command line options were
being processed after the user had set everything in the control panel.
This is clearly not what's expected--the command line options should
affect the startup defaults of the control panel, but whatever the user
chooses in the cpanel menus is the final choice.
- if the control panel (config interface) is not wanted, the user can
put "-nocp" or "-nocontrolpanel" as the FIRST argument on the command
line. Also, the "-psn" option which is automatically passed in by
MacOS X when you doubleclick the application causes the control panel
to be disabled. In this case, the order of operations is:
1. read bochsrc
2. parse command line options.
- if the control panel is enabled (default), the command line options are
parsed to provide the startup defaults for the control panel, but the
control panel settings are the final answer. So the order is:
1. parse command line options
2. run control panel (if user chooses, he can read bochsrc from menus)
- I haven't tested command line options with the debugger yet.
--with-amigaos is allowed and sets up the makefiles correctly. It
defines a symbol called BX_WITH_AMIGAOS, which should be used in
#if..#endif constructs that are specific to amigaos.
- if --enable-cdrom is used with --with-amigaos, the cdrom_amigaos.o
object file will be added to CDROM_OBJS in the iodev makefile.
X servers that I've seen, however on other X servers it makes all
key mappings into absolute junk. We need to continue to work on this
patch to support all X servers and all key maps.
<dieter.mittelmaier@freenet.de> which fixes X11 keyboard mapping
on German keyboards using Keycodes instead of Keysyms.
His comments are:
> I mapped your BX_KEY-defines in gui.h to values from XFree
> ../keycodes/Xfree86. Keysyms in x.cc would now translated
> to keycodes. Now I can use german or us keyboard-layout in

> Note: Changing keyboard layout in win95 to en works too
> Also you must change keyboard setup in win95 to AT-Enhanced 101/102 keyboard
which notifies them that the mouse_enabled bit has changed. Now that
mouse_enabled can be initialized or modified by parameter events in
addition to GUI events, the guis must be prepared for it. I have pasted
empty method definitions into mouse_enabled_changed_specific for all
guis except for X11, which I did the right way. The implementation
of this function must use the argument "val" rather than reading the
parameter.
goes in/out of mouse capture mode. This is critical because
bx_options.Omouse_enabled is used to control whether the mouse
events are sent into the hardware queue or not (keyboard.cc).
This is only a partial fix though, because changing the mouse
enabled setting in the control panel has no effect on the gui.
control panel are all implemented as bx_list_c, and look much like
they did before.
- removed many hardcoded UI functions from control.cc, since the
much more general "text_ask" methods have replaced them.
- add range checking on integer parameter values. This exposed several
cases where my initial value for an integer parameter was not in range.
- cleaned up behavior of get/set methods. The get/set methods allow the
handler to override the value that is returned/set, or perform side
effects.
- the title parameter of a bx_list_c now defaults to the name.
- now bx_param_c fields that used to be private are protected instead
- removed references to bx_any
- moved definition of set_handler from siminterface.h to siminterface.cc.
I was considering with doing a "set" of the old value when the
handler is first installed, but that remains commented out.
- BX_BOOT_DISKA and BX_BOOT_DISKC are now 0,1 so that they can correspond
with the values of a bx_param_enum_c. For a while they were 0x00 and 0x80
corresponding to the numbering convention of the bios, but it didn't
really matter.
been converted into parameters temporarily have the letter "O" appended
to their name. I don't want to keep it this way, but it has helped
in the conversion process because the compiler refuses to compile the
old uses of the name. Before I started using the "O" trick, there were
many bugs like this: if (bx_options.diskc.present) {...}
This was legal with the new parameters, but it was testing whether the
parameter structure had been created, instead of testing the value of
the present parameter. Renaming present to Opresent turns this into
a compile error, which points out the incorrect use of the param.
- the "--disable-control-panel" no longer works, I'm afraid. I can no
longer support this and continue progress.
crash in the mouse code. The particular problem was that init_done
was never initialized to zero, but it always turned out to be zero
on my system. This may explain why it worked for me but crashed
for him.
data structures, see bx_init_options in main.cc. The implementation
of this menu and all its choices is 17 lines long, see do_mem_options_menu
in gui/control.cc.
now the whole "Bochs Memory Options" menu uses new style parameters.
The next step is to remove the hardcoded stuff that generates and runs
this menu, and replace it with general menu building code. All you should
need to create this menu is the string "Bochs Memory Options", and the
IDs of the bx_param_c options that should appear on the menu. The
bx_param_c structure for each parameter tell what type it is, how to
display it, constraints on the value, what to do when the parameter
changes.
declared as bx_param_c * types in the bx_options structure. They are
initialized in main.cc (bx_init_options) with default values.
Access to parameters of this type should always be like this:
bx_options.mouse_enabled->get ();
bx_options.mouse_enabled->set (newval);
Eventually I will be transferring all options to this format.
when main.cc no longer had one. Now compiling with debugger is working
with the control panel. To get the control panel, you have to click
the snapshot button, and to get the debugger, you have to press ^C.
These should be better integrated (maybe a control panel menu choice
that jumps into the debugger and a debugger command that starts the
runtime control panel...)
better name given what the options actually are.
- now runtime menu behaves more like the others: it updates its floppy
disk image, etc.
- add "ask" as a legal choice for log action
- now runtime menu has both ways of editing log options
