- To solve the slowness of the MemoryBlock Fill() method when the block has a big size I've created a new class for this MemoryOperations that for now contains only the method Fill() with a part implemented in ASM and with some overloads to semplify its usage from managed code. In future in this class will be added other methods to operate fast on memory for example Cmp() and Copy(). - Adding (not passing) test of the Color struct to the BoxingTest kernel - Removed BoxingTest kernel inside BCL test: it was a duplicate of the BoxingTest kernel - Restored correct TestKernelSets - In the CGS Test kernel the last rectangle is now LimeGreen instead of another type of red (more clear that is working correctly) - Added to X# the generation of the instruction Shuftps - Added to X# the generation of the instruction MoveUPS - Modified Guess Demo to wait for a key press to terminate (it closed suddenly in case the number was guessed) - The VBE IOMemoryBlock has again size of 1920x1200 (the max usable) - Added CGS Demo - Code clean up |

Cosmos (C# Open Source Managed Operating System)
Cosmos is an operating system "construction kit", built from the ground up around the IL2CPU compiler in C# and our home-brewed language called X#.
It's current stage is only usable for academic work. Some day Cosmos will be ready for production work, but to reach that stage we need more developers. Specifically, we need a few more low-level developers to help the few core developers who are currently overwhelmed with work.
Downloads:
Cosmos is available in two flavors:
- User Kit - The User Kit is used to develop your operating system in Visual Studio. If you are new to Cosmos, you can learn here. Latest Release available.
- Development Kit (Devkit) - The Development Kit is the full Cosmos source and build tools. If you need to modify the Cosmos core functions or modify built-in drivers, boot, compiler, etc.. you will need to use Development Kit. Tutorial for building the Development Kit - Building from the source is easy with our automated builder.
