* cut model string on boot screen if larger than 36 characters to make one
"ata" message fit in one line
* config parameter for model string needs one more byte
* harddrive: terminate model string with null
* "pipe-server" (win32 only): It makes bochs a named pipe server so other
application can communicate with it using pipes API. Useful e.g. for remote
kernel debugging.
* "pipe-client" (win32 only)
* "socket-server": for the use with gdb
Make save/restore default feature, the configure option for save/restore removed from configure script and save/restore made available forever. All code now assume it is exists. Bochs save/restore tree previosly called "save_restore" renamed to "bochs" tree and it will be havily used everywhere, starting from save/restore and ending by various bochs debugger functions. I am going to rework debugger code to get rid of debug CPU access functions and use this "bochs" param tree instead
- removed obsolete structures and members from the USB code
- removed mouse type 'usb' (USB mouse and tablet override selected mouse type
when connected)
- user doc: mention vmware 4 disk image support
string. This is better for devices that need to know all it's options when
connecting to the port. Device name and option should be separated with a
colon. The USB device 'disk' now uses this format ('disk:usbdisk.img).
- the pciusb plugin must be linked with cdrom.o
changed after initializing the config interface
- PARAM_TREE.txt updated and cleaned up (TODO: improve developer documentation
and get rid of this file)
2. In init.cc save and restore BX_CPU_THIS__PTR trace value, allows to enable/disable tracing using save/restore.
3. in iret.cc - cleanup3. in iret.cc - cleanup3. in iret.cc - cleanup
- for the BrowseDir() function Bochs for win32 needs to be linked with SHELL32.DLL
(currently used for the save/restore support only)
- save/restore support symbol name changed
Averything that required cpu.h include now has it explicitly and there are a lot of files not dependant by CPU at all which will compile a lot faster now ...
- 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")
- sb16 parameters stored in the device class and runtime parameter handler added
- wx: ParamDialog can currently handle only dependency lists of bool parameters
correctly (TODO: add support for numeric parameters)
- disable usb options if not compiled with usb support
- usb and network dependency list created with menu->clone()
- load usb plugin only if at least one hub is present
- remaining options prepared for rewrite
- proposed parameter tree updated
