2 - final adjustments for 0.9 release
3
4 V0.9 (snapshot) - 29.May 2001
5 - added help for command line arguments, PrefsInit() now removes
6 all processed options
7 - serial_unix.cpp: input/output_thread_cancel weren't initialized
8 [Kolja Waschk]
9 - Unix: some performance improvements to VOSF screen update code
10 [Brian J. Johnson]
11 - Unix: renewed SIGSEGV support functions. Side effect: configure
12 script cleanups and probable Direct Addressing/VOSF support for
13 other platforms (NetBSD, AIX, OSF/1, Irix) [Gwenole Beauchesne]
14 - Unix: -Ofast option is supplied to MIPSPro compiler [Brian J. Johnson]
15 - Unix: workaround for IRIX pthreads bug in Delay_usec()
16 [Brian J. Johnson]
17 - Unix: FreeBSD configure script cleanups [Michael Alyn Miller]
18 - Unix: ether_linux.cpp moved and renamed to ether_unix.cpp, now
19 also works with the tap driver under FreeBSD [Michael Alyn Miller]
20 - BeOS: fixed some bugs in the extfs file types handling
21 - AmigaOS: SCSI buffer type can be selected
22
23 V0.9 (snapshot) - 17.Feb.2001
24 - adapted for cxmon V3.0 which is now the required minimum
25 - UAE cpu: fixed a bug in the memory handlers preventing from
26 correctly updating 15 and 16 bpp displays on big endian systems
27 - Unix: added (experimental) real addressing mode [Gwenole Beauchesne]
28 (activated through the "--enable-addressing=real" configure option)
29 - Unix: added direct addressing mode [Gwenole Beauchesne]
30 (default addressing mode, if possible)
31 - Unix: added screen updates on SEGV signals [Gwenole Beauchesne]
32 (activated through the "--enable-vosf" configure option)
33 - Unix: added IRIX audio driver [Brian J. Johnson]

36 - AmigaOS: enabled floppy support, fixed floppy bugs [Jürgen Lachmann]
37 - AmigaOS: Amiga mouse pointer is hidden inside windowed Mac displays

50 command line
51 - BeOS: implemented the "powerrom_cpu" CPU engine for BeOS/PPC that
52 uses the 680x0 emulator contained in an Apple PowerMac ROM to run
53 Basilisk II (ca. 4x speed improvement); when running on a BeBox,
54 a PCI PowerMac ROM image is needed to use this (the path name of the
55 ROM file can be set with the preferences item "powerrom", default
56 is "PowerROM")
57 - include/macos_util.h: defines FOURCC() macro to make MacOS-like
58 four-character-codes, replaced most instances of multi-character
59 constants in the sources by this macro to avoid compiler warnings

73 ("Dynamic") selects new method, other values select old method
74 - Unix/prefs_editor_unix.cpp: new "Input" pane, containing keycode
75 and mouse wheel options
76 - AmigaOS: added support for CyberGraphX [Jürgen Lachmann]

99 - extfs.cpp: several fixes [Lauri Pesonen]
100 - some provisions for using UAE CPU compiler (doesn't work yet)
101 - video_x.cpp: XFree86 VidMode extension is used to switch modes
102 in DGA mode

419 - main_*.cpp: added ChoiceAlert()
420 - main_*.cpp: disabled UAE FPU (as it is buggy)
421 - serial_*.cpp: device_name is now a "const char *"
422 - serial_*.cpp: implemented monitor (#define MONITOR 1 to activate)
423 - *.h: changed "#ifdef _XXX_H_" to "#ifdef XXX_H" as symbols starting
424 with an underscore are reserved
425 - rom_patches.cpp: icon data moved to sony/disk/cdrom.cpp
426 - rom_patches.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
427 - slot_rom.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
428 - serial_defs.h: added error codes
429 - AmigaOS: the Kickstart ROM is no longer used to redirect NIL pointer
430 accesses as this crashes some machines (especially 68040-based);
431 a scratch memory block is used instead
432 - AmigaOS/serial_amiga.cpp: implemented
433 - AmigaOS/ether_amiga.cpp: implemented
434 - AmigaOS/sys_amiga.cpp: SysAddSerialPrefs() now returns real defaults
435 - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: when the memory for the Mac RAM and ROM
436 cannot be allocated, an error message is displayed (instead of crashing)
437 - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: interrupts are disabled during execution
438 of an EMUL_OP routine
439 - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the CTRL-C handler checks for pending
440 AmigaDOS operations
441 - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the interrupt signal exception is rethrown
442 when the interrupt level in EmulatedSR gets lowered while interrupts
443 are pending
444 - BeOS: switched from project files to Be supplied makefile system
445 - BeOS/ether_beos.cpp: implemented
446 - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: modem status of parallel device is returned
447 as (dsrEvent | dcdEvent | ctsEvent)
448 - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: implemented kSERDBaudRate
449 - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: serdtDCE is set in PrimeIn()/PrimeOut()
450 - Unix/serial_unix.cpp: added support for parallel ports
451 - Unix/serial_unix.cpp: serdtDCE is set in PrimeIn()/PrimeOut()
452 - Unix/video_x.cpp: pressing F12 and q will quit Basilisk II in DGA mode
453 (useful when it crashed)

456 - Unix/video_x.cpp: added 15, 16 and 32 bit window modes [Bill Huey]
457 - BeOS/video_beos.cpp: "screen" prefs item is now either
458 "win/<width>/<height>" for window mode or "scr" for full-screen
459 mode
460 - added documentation of preferences file format to README
461
462 V0.2 (alpha) - 11.Mar.1999

467 in virtual addressing mode, the Mac frame buffer layout now has to be
468 specified in MacFrameLayout (video.h)
469 - Unix/video_x.cpp: the "screen" prefs item is now read to select
470 window mode (with a specified window size) or DGA mode
471 - Unix/video_x.cpp: DGA mode supports 15, 16 and 32 bit modes (packed
472 24 bit pixels don't work)
473 - Unix/Makefile.linux: added -D_REENTRANT to compiler flags
474
