You can now embed a single quote character in an X# literal string provided you escape this character by preceding it with a backslash. For example :
var .DebugWaitMsg = 'Waiting for \'debugger\' connection...'
X# asm code generator now uses back quotes to surround literal strings in generated asm code. Back quote characters in X# literal strings are properly escaped if they aren't already. Double quotes characters ub X# literal strings don't trigger a NASM compilation error anymore.
Limitations :
- Bochs must be installed on the system. This is not checked as a prerequisite by the Builder.
- You will find a GuessForBochs Cosmos project under BlueSkeye user project folder that can be used to launch the Guess project under Bochs.
- You may have to fix manually the path for the following properties in Cosmos.bxrc file copied to the CosmosForBochs\Bin\Debug folder
* romimage
* vgaromimage
- The Cosmos project UI is not yet Bochs aware. If you do not use the GuessForBochs project you must manually edit your Cosmos project file to modify the following property in both the Debug and Release property group from the project file :
<Launch>Bochs</Launch>
You must also add the following properties in both the Debug and Release property group from the project file :
<BochsConfig>Cosmos.bxrc</BochsConfig>
<Bochs_Deployment>ISO</Bochs_Deployment>
<Bochs_Launch>Bochs</Bochs_Launch>
