- Fixed screen alignments/scrolling between commands
- Add ncurses screen update support on non-windows platforms
- Add tests for new frontpanel APIs
- Add multiple panel startup and shutdown activity to test shutdown
- Add breakpoints to help debug VAX console ROM tests that have failed
- Properly digest all register data when it arrives from register
queries and repeat activities.
- Invoke register callback functon when transitioning to Halt state.
- Add option to access instruction history with sim_panel_get_history
API
- More interesting testing in FrontPanelTest program
- Reworked STEP, HALT, BOOT, and RUN API's to properly interlock with
the receive thread.
- Shorten destroy delay while debugging to 1 second.
- Allow execution and text breakpoints to be set and/or cleared while
simulator is running.
- Add explicit support for referencing register array elements.
- Reworked the parsing of the grouped output sets for explicitly queried
registers and the auto repeat output sets.
- Fix race conditions in the various RUN, START, BOOT, and CONT commands.
- Fix incorrect RUN/HALT state after STEP commands
- Tolerate input TCP traffic that has been legitimately coalesced into
different
Adds:
1) Simulator side execution of register update activities at an interval
specified in usecs. Rates in excess of 1000Hz should be achievable
for locally connected frontpanel applications.
2) New API for simulators to describe the register state available in
the simulator. If all of a the state which is potentially interesting
to front panel applications is always present in the variables
described by simh REG structures, then frontpanel API access to
that data can be more efficiently provided.
- added verification of the existence of simulator registers which they are referenced.
- sim_frontpanel API version checking to make sure that the invoking API and the simulator support the same capabilities.
- added the ability for a simulator to reference data in simh register data which is not in the set of registers defined in the default simh device (usually the CPU).
- added a simulator time reference relating to a set of register data which is provided.
- added example automatically creating a console terminal port from a simulator startup (front panel or not).
