yes, we are............
But I'm not sure if we're far enough along yet to avoid the need for _major_
changes later on.......
IF you want to start on an NT port (if I were you.......I'd love to do it
myself--but I have not the time nor the experience needed....) then a good
place to start might be in the _current_ bochs plug-in: the windows C++ GUI
file. For what should be reasonably obvious, it might be easier to just
leave it in C++ (so that windows a least thinks to some extent that it is
dealing with a C++ application....). You could, however, opt to re-write it
into ANSI C, in which case you will need to not use _any_ MFC (why you would
want to use MFC is beyond me anyway....., but I thought that I'd mention
it...). The reasoning behind this is that WinNT may not take as kindly to C
style MFC calls as we would like it to (I don't even think that C style MFC
calls work anymore--Colin?). Also, we alleviate licensing concerns to some
extent by not using MFC.
One more thing--the real pain is going to be making the monitor code work.
The GUI should, for an experienced programmer, be of little difficulty. I
don't know if WinNT's HAL is going to let us in under the system the same
way the unicies do.... Any ideas here?
