. It's an Apple II plus clone.
. The 48K bank-switched Rom is controlled with AN0 and AN1.
. The character generation video Rom has two full character sets: English and German (F10 to switch).
NB. At the prompt, "TEST" runs the ROM self-test.
. The auto-switch is done on each reset, or on inserting a disk at the start-up screen (MODE_LOGO).
. The Window's title include '(S6-13)' if DiskII card has 13-sector f/w.
. The debugger's 'disk info' cmd will show FW13 or FW16 depending on f/w.
. added GetRef(), which can throw a std::runtime_error
. NB. dynamic_cast for a reference will throw a std::bad_cast error on failure
Added try/catch around main VM restart loop
. split the loop into ProcessCmdLine(), GetAppleWinVersion(), OneTimeInitialization() RepeatInitialization() & Shutdown()
. catch std::runtime_error & std::exception
Support 2nd Disk][ in slot-5, via command line:
- -s5 diskii
- -s5d1 \<imagefile\>
- -s5d2 \<imagefile\>
NB. there's currently no Configuration UI support, except the Drive icons' tooltips show what's in slot-5 & slot-6 (for drive-n). So there's no way to eject the disks or insert new disks. The use-case I'm supporting it Wasteland which just has the 4 disks in the 4 drives.
Improved card management:
- Added `class Card` (in Card.h) which all other cards (that exist as classes) derive from (eg. LC,SSC,Mouse,Disk2).
- Added `class CardManager` (in CardManager.cpp\h) which now manages the 8 slots (and aux slot).
- Added `class Disk2CardManager` (in Disk2CardManager.cpp\h) which provides methods for operations that act on all Disk2 instances at the same time.
- Currently limited to just 1x SSC and 1x Mouse card (why would you need more?). This simplifies things, meaning there's no need to have dedicated SSCManager / MouseCardManager objects.
- Currently the 2nd Disk2 card can only be put into slot-5. This limitation is just due to the complexity of the Configuration UI. Having a more general drop-down per slot UI would remove this limitation.
This change does two things:
1. Updates the registry APIs to reduce the likelihood of uninitialized
variables.
The code wasn't always checking the return value of registry load operations.
In some cases, this led to uninitialized memory being used, and crashes could
result. For example, LoadConfiguration in Applewin.cpp was using an
uninitialized value for the computer type if no registry variable for the
"Apple 2 type" was set.
New registry reading methods and macros have also been introduced, allowing
default value fallbacks for the cases where a registry variable is not found.
This makes registry access simpler and safer when a default value is known in
advance.
The registry code's style has also been updated to conform with the rest of
the code base (tabs instead of spaces, naming conventions, etc.)
2. Introduces string safety improvements.
A number of code paths have been modified to use safe-string functions instead
of their unsafe counterparts (e.g., strcpy, sprintf). In the process, some
strings were converted from "char" to "TCHAR". This was done mostly for
consistency with the rest of the code-base.
Support the old AppleWin 1.25 vertical blending for hires:
- extended Config dialog to include 'Vertical Blend' checkbox
- Persist 'Video Styles' to Registry
- new cmd line options to select this style & also select 'RGB (Color Monitor)'
- code refactor to support enum VideoStyle_e (and replaced g_uHalfScanLines with a bit in g_eVideoStyles)
Bumped version to 1.28.2.0.
Added new cmd-line switch: -videorom <file> to replace the video ROM for the Enhanced //e.
- Support video ROM sizes of 4K, 8K and 16K (top 8K only).
- NB. The rocker switch is set to European video ROM.
F10 (for //e or Enhanced //e models) emulates the PAL //e's rocker switch (under the keyboard) to toggle between European or US video ROM.
Other:
- Fixed debugger's view of the AltCharSet soft-switch (it was showing the opposite state).
. When Alt Gr is pressed, then manually post WM_CHAR message on receiving a WM_KEYDOWN (manually translate and account for shift/control/caps-lock)
. Hook filter: suppress Alt Gr's (ie. RMENU's) fake LCONTROL messages
Also:
. Hook filter: allow Ctrl+Shift+Esc (for Task Manager)
. Keyboard: refactor only use accessor functions to get the Alt/Control/Shift state
. When in MODE_LOGO, don't pass WM_CHAR to Apple II keyboard (now consistent with WM_KEYDOWN)
. Small refactor for Apple II keyboard's WM_KEYDOWN handler
Move code for log init & done to Log.cpp
. Fix for GetKeyState() not detecting the special keys as being up (so AKD was erroneously reporting the key still down).
. eg. Whilst pressing TAB, press LEFT ALT, then release TAB.
. Also suppress ALT+SPACE
. PostMessage to AppleWin message-pump for WM_KEYDOWN, WM_KEYUP for these special key combos
. Add special any-key-down (AKD) handling for these special key combos
. Support TX IRQ for both TCP and COM modes (fixes#522)
. Support CTS/RTS (fixes#311)
. Fixed reading DIPSW registers
. Fixed TCP mode which was only generating an IRQ for first byte received
. Added UpdateCommandReg() to consolidate all updates to SSC command reg
. Updated reference URLs
