a method to add the parameters (bx_param_c) that you want to edit,
and display it. It knows how to display and edit boolean, int,
enum, and string, so it can do a reasonable job on any parameter.
The end result is not as nice as a box that you lay out by hand, but
it's decent. The most obvious thing that's missing from
ParamDialog-generated dialogs is that I haven't found a way to
make an "Enable" button that enables/disables a bunch of other
parameters. I'll keep thinking about that.
- using ParamDialog, I made dialogs for Sound, Cmos, Serial/Parallel,
32bitOSloader, and an ugly catch-all category called other.
Now I believe you can edit every single option using wxWindows.
- remove the format string from GetTextCtrlInt() because the strtoul
conversion is better than the sscanf with a format string (it supports
both base 10 and 16 with 0xFF notation).
- modified files: gui/wxdialog.cc gui/wxdialog.h gui/wxmain.cc gui/wxmain.h
- also other browse buttons were somewhat broken in that they didn't
set the initial value of the wxFileDialog. Now all text fields
with a browse button use a single function BrowseTextCtrl() to
avoid future problems of this sort.
- if the Ok on the MemoryConfigDialog is rejected because the integers
can't be parsed, now give a more specific error message that points you
to which field has the illegal value.
- print hex numbers with CAPS. With proportional font this is much
easier to read.
- accept either strings with base 10 or 16 numbers in GetTextCtrlInt by
default. If the sscanf fails, accept anything that strtoul can
read. Unfortunately legitimate "-1"'s being returned from strtoul will
be rejected, but at present there is no need for negative numbers in
textfields anywhere.
- modified files: gui/wxdialog.cc gui/wxdialog.h
and also the optional rom settings. I think it all works except that
the Browse buttons aren't hooked up yet.
- modified Files: gui/wxdialog.cc gui/wxdialog.h gui/wxmain.cc gui/wxmain.h
die, or ask the user for each type of event. It has a button that
will lead to the "advanced" dialog, which doesn't exist yet.
- in gui/wxdialog.h, sketch a few more dialogs to be done soon
- modified: gui/wxdialog.cc gui/wxdialog.h gui/wxmain.cc gui/wxmain.h
- for all modal dialogs that return a boolean result, return either
wxOK or wxCANCEL instead of 0,-1.
- you can view the NetConfigDialog box if you choose the Edit:Network menu
item, but it's not connected to the actual parameter values yet.
into normal C strings. After asking about it on wx-users, I understand
it better now.
Example of unsafe code:
char *filename = dlg.GetFilename().c_str ();
printf ("file name is %s\n", filename);
The problem is that dlg.GetFilename() returns a temporary wxString
that goes out of scope at the end of that line of code. The "filename"
string is unstable if you write it this way.
Example of safe code:
char filename[1024];
wxString fn (dlg.GetFilename ());
strncpy (filename, fn.c_str (), sizeof(filename));
printf ("file name is %s\n", name);
Now we have a stable copy of the wxString in "fn" which is usable
as long as fn is in scope.
- also now we use wxStrings (almost) all the time in the interface to the
wxdialogs. Any conversion from char* to wxString and back is done in
wxmain.cc now.
- HDConfigDialog now uses an EnableChanged() method to set the enabled bit
on components controlled by the enable checkbox.
- now sets the present bit on hard disks and cdrom
- enforces the rule that you can't have DISKD and CDROMD (just in time for
Christophe to add another interface)
- now the megabytes field is a wxStaticText, which makes it clear that
it cannot be edited.
- add "enter size/compute geometry" button for HD image
- make a few more strings into #defines in wxdialog.h
- disable most of the Edit menu during simulation, reenable it when
simulation stops
choose the filename and capacity of a floppy image. This dialog
can recognize a list of names as physical disk drives, and it has a
Browse button so that you can click on a new image intead of having
to type it. If you press ok, then the Bochs parameters are updated.
- eventually we should make a function that makes a list of the
physical devices that should be mentioned here. For Windows it should
say "Physical drive A:" for "a:", while on Linux it should say
"Physical drive fd0" for "/dev/fd0" or something. Even if bochs
doesn't find the correct physical disk drives, you can still type
whatever file name you want.
gui/wxdialog.h and gui/wxdialog.cc. The first dialog box is
called LogMsgAskDialog. It displays panic messages and asks if you
want to continue, quit, etc.
