[vbox-dev] where is the main()?

[Johannes DeWitt]

Hi, i have 2 questions about the execution of virtualbox:

1) where is the main()? when i run ./Virtualbox, where is (in the source
code) the first instructions?

2)about the loop: i read there are 4-5 loops for the execution of
VBox..which is the default loop, when i execute a normal VM (not debug mode
or smoething..just the standard execution)?

thanks

1. Although I don't work on the GUI myself, I think what you're looking
for is most likely: src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox/src/hardenedmain.cpp
or main.cpp (when compiled without hardening).

2. There are several loops but you might want to start with
EMR3ExecuteVM() in src/VBox/VMM/VMMR3/EM.cpp

Hope that helps.
Regards,
Ram.
