# Line 1 | Line 1
1 + V1.0 (snapshot) - <date>
2 +        - added support for on-the-fly video resolution and depth switching,
3 +          and gamma tables
4 +        - fsave/frestore emulation under AmigaOS and NetBSD/m68k always behaves
5 +          like a 68882/68040 FPU, eliminating the need for 68060 FPU patches
6 +        - added support for platform-independant mutexes, used by adb.cpp for
7 +          thread-safe mouse handling
8 +        - Unix: windowed display mode supports different resolutions and color
9 +          depth, which can be switched on-the-fly
10 +        - Unix: Ctrl-F5 grabs mouse in windowed mode (enhanced compatibility
11 +          with games like flight simulators)
12 +
13 + V0.9 (release 0.9-1) - 31.May 2001
14 +        - final adjustments for 0.9 release

21 +        - Unix: some performance improvements to VOSF screen update code
22 +          [Brian J. Johnson]
23 +        - Unix: renewed SIGSEGV support functions. Side effect: configure

32 +        - BeOS: fixed some bugs in the extfs file types handling
33 +        - AmigaOS: SCSI buffer type can be selected
34 +
35 + V0.9 (snapshot) - 17.Feb.2001
36 +        - adapted for cxmon V3.0 which is now the required minimum
37 +        - UAE cpu: fixed a bug in the memory handlers preventing from
38 +          correctly updating 15 and 16 bpp displays on big endian systems

44 +          (activated through the "--enable-vosf" configure option)
45 +        - Unix: added IRIX audio driver [Brian J. Johnson]
46 +        - Unix: improved timing of periodic threads
47 +        - Unix: command line options now use '--'-prefix, e.g. "--rominfo"
48 +        - AmigaOS: enabled floppy support, fixed floppy bugs [Jürgen Lachmann]
49 +        - AmigaOS: Amiga mouse pointer is hidden inside windowed Mac displays
50 +        - AmigaOS/sys_amiga.cpp: workaround for 2060scsi.device bug when
51 +          when reading from CD-ROM [Jürgen Lachmann]
52 +        - AmigaOS/prefs_editor_amiga.cpp: fixed bug when adding volumes
53 +          [Jürgen Lachmann]

56 +        - AmigaOS: disabled 68060 Super Bypass mode because of CPU bug triggered
57 +          by MacOS 8
58 +        - AmigaOS: implemented XPRAM watchdog task
59 +        - AmigaOS/Unix/extfs_*.cpp: .finf helper file now stores complete
60 +          FInfo/FXInfo, replaced get/set_finder_*() functions by get/set_finfo()
61 +        - AmigaOS/Unix: it's possible to specify preferences items on the
62 +          command line
63 +        - BeOS: implemented the "powerrom_cpu" CPU engine for BeOS/PPC that
64 +          uses the 680x0 emulator contained in an Apple PowerMac ROM to run
65 +          Basilisk II (ca. 4x speed improvement); when running on a BeBox,
66 +          a PCI PowerMac ROM image is needed to use this (the path name of the
67 +          ROM file can be set with the preferences item "powerrom", default
68 +          is "PowerROM")
69 +        - include/macos_util.h: defines FOURCC() macro to make MacOS-like
70 +          four-character-codes, replaced most instances of multi-character
71 +          constants in the sources by this macro to avoid compiler warnings
72 +        - cdrom.cpp: implemented Status(6) call (return format list)
73 +          [Landon Fuller]

77 +
78 + V0.8 (snapshot) - 13.Jul.2000
79 +        - Unix: runs natively on NetBSD/m68k
80 +        - Unix: compiles without pthreads, but without serial/ethernet/audio
81 +          support
82 +        - Unix: "--without-mon" configure option now works
83 +        - Unix/video_x.cpp: DGA and SHM are only tried on local X11 displays
84 +        - Unix/video_x.cpp: re-integrated old window update method; frameskip=0
85 +          ("Dynamic") selects new method, other values select old method
86 +        - Unix/prefs_editor_unix.cpp: new "Input" pane, containing keycode
87 +          and mouse wheel options
88 +        - AmigaOS: added support for CyberGraphX [Jürgen Lachmann]
89 +        - audio.cpp: audio_data is cleared on reset [Lauri Pesonen]
90 +        - prefs.cpp: empty string prefs items could be written to prefs file
91 +          but not read back correctly
92 +        - clip_*.cpp: added prefs item "noclipconversion" for turning off
93 +          charset conversion of text clips (only CR->LF gets translated),
94 +          [Toshimitsu Tanaka]
95 +
96 + V0.8 (snapshot) - 14.Mar.2000
97 +        - Unix/video_x.cpp: new window refresh code [Samuel Lander]

99 +
100 + V0.8 (release 0.8-1) - 30.Jan.2000
101 +        - extfs: extended size of finf helper files to 32 bytes to eventually
102 +          allow storing the complete FInfo/FXInfo in it
103 +
104 + V0.8 (snapshot) - 22.Dec.1999
105 +        - imported UAE CPU 0.8.10 changes
106 +        - new utility functions Mac_memset, Mac2Host_memcpy, Host2Mac_memcpu
107 +          and Mac2Mac_memcpy
108 +        - extfs.cpp: fixed bug in fs_rename() and fs_cat_move() (auxiliary
109 +          IOParam block was not in Mac address space and FSItem parent IDs
110 +          didn't get swapped) [Lauri Pesonen]
111 +        - extfs.cpp: several fixes [Lauri Pesonen]
112 +        - some provisions for using UAE CPU compiler (doesn't work yet)
113 +        - video_x.cpp: XFree86 VidMode extension is used to switch modes
114 +          in DGA mode
115 +
116 + V0.8 (snapshot) - 2.Nov.1999
117 +        - fixed many UAE FPU bugs [Lauri Pesonen]
118 +        - added replacement for BlockMove() trap
119 +        - removed Windows sources from the source archive; a version of
120 +          these that actually compiles and works can be downloaded from
121 +          Lauri Pesonen's site
122 +        - removed the MemoryDispatch() replacement routine; the routine
123 +          in the ROM is now always used; this fixes the MacOS 8 Finder
124 +          copying bug and also most "unimplemented trap" errors on MacOS
125 +          bootup; yeah :-)
126 +        - a warning is issued if the ROM seems to require an FPU but FPU
127 +          emulation is turned off
128 +        - medium removal is allowed in CDROMExit()
129 +        - added (incomplete) emulation of 68040 instructions (CINV, CPUSH,
130 +          MOVE16 (Ax)+,(Ay)+, and FPU stack frames), enough to boot MacOS
131 +        - UAE CPU: opcode routines no longer return the cycle count
132 +        - extfs.cpp: fixed bug with fsResolveWDCB in fs_get_wd_info()
133 +        - Unix: added support for ESD audio output; merged with OSS audio
134 +          and put in a new "audio_oss_esd.cpp" file which is also used under
135 +          FreeBSD 3.x
136 +        - Unix: added mkinstalldirs to "make install" target
137 +        - Unix: cleaned up the configure script
138 +        - Unix: ROM breakpoint can be specified with "-break" command line
139 +          argument
140 +        - Unix: "-rominfo" command line argument to print information
141 +          about ROM version and tables
142 +        - Unix: ExtFS supports resource forks and Finder info (these are
143 +          kept in hidden ".finf" and ".rsrc" directories)
144 +        - Unix/audio_oss_esd.cpp: AudioStatus is re-set after determining
145 +          audio device capabilities (actual sample rate is also determined)
146 +          [Alexander R. Pruss]
147 +        - Unix/audio_oss_esd.cpp: "silence" in 8-bit mode used wrong fill
148 +          value (0 instead of 0x80) [Alexander R. Pruss]
149 +        - Unix/video_x.cpp: added mouse wheel support [Alexander R. Pruss]
150 +        - Unix/sys_unix.cpp: device size is read correctly under Linux
151 +        - AmigaOS: removed support for SAS/C
152 +        - AmigaOS/sys_amiga.cpp: supports 64-bit device I/O (NSD)
153 +        - AmigaOS/sys_amiga.cpp: device block size is respected on writes
154 +
155 + V0.8 (snapshot) - 21.Oct.1999
156 +        - sony.cpp/disk.cpp/cdrom.cpp: disk insertions are now checked for
157 +          by an interrupt routine
158 +        - localizable strings are now split into a common and a platform-
159 +          specific set
160 +        - added external file system to access host OS files from the MacOS;
161 +          root directory is specified by the "extfs" prefs item
162 +        - moved most initialization/deinitialization code to InitAll() and
163 +          ExitAll() in main.cpp
164 +        - added patches for NetBSD [Bernd Sieker]
165 +        - corrected TimerDateTime() in timer_unix.cpp and timer_beos.cpp
166 +          [Toshimitsu Tanaka]
167 +        - AmigaOS: fixed crash when gtlayout.library was not present
168 +        - AmigaOS: now compiles with GCC (Geek Gadgets)
169 +        - AmigaOS/clip_amiga.cpp: fixed small bug in CR->LF translation
170 +          [Giacomo Magnini]

172 +        - Unix: volume list in GTK prefs editor is reorderable
173 +        - Unix: added fbdev DGA support and SPARC assembly optimizations to
174 +          UAE core [Gwenole Beauchesne]
