The PseudoOpNames class is increasingly being used in situations
where mutability is undesirable. This change makes instances
immutable, eliminating the Copy() method and adding a constructor
that takes a Dictionary. The serialization code now operates on a
Dictionary instead of the class properties, but the JSON encoding is
identical, so this doesn't invalidate app settings file data.
Added an equality test to PseudoOpNames. In LineListGen, don't
reset the line list if the names haven't actually changed.
Use a table lookup for C64 character conversions. I figure that
should be faster than multiple conditionals on a modern x64 system.
Fixed a 64tass generator issue where we tried to query project
properties in a call that might not have a project available
(specifically, getting FormatConfig values out of the generator for
use in the "quick set" buttons for Display Format).
Fixed a regression test harness issue where, if the assembler reported
success but didn't actually generate output, an exception would be
thrown that halted the tests.
Increased the width of text entry fields on the Pseudo-Op tab of app
settings. The previous 8-character limit wasn't wide enough to hold
ACME's "!pseudopc". Also, use TrimEnd() to remove trailing spaces
(leading spaces are still allowed).
In the last couple of months, Win10 started stalling for a fraction
of a second when executing assemblers. It doesn't do this every
time; mostly it happens if it has been a while since the assembler
was run. My guess is this has to do with changes to the built-in
malware scanner. Whatever the case, we now change the mouse pointer
to a wait cursor while updating the assembler version cache.
A delimiter definition is four strings (prefix, open, close, suffix)
that are concatenated with the character or string data to form an
operand. A delimiter set is a collection of delimiter definitions,
with separate entries for each character encoding.
This is a convenient way to configure Formatter objects, import and
export data from the app settings file, and manage the UI needed to
allow the user to customize how things look.
The full set of options didn't fit on the first app settings tab, so
there's now a separate tab just for specifying character and string
delimiters. (This might be overkill, but there are various plausible
scenarios that make use of it.)
The delimiters for on-screen display of strings can now be
configured.
The previous functions just grabbed 62 characters and slapped quotes
on the ends, but that doesn't work if we want to show strings with
embedded control characters. This change replaces the simple
formatter with the one used to generate assembly source code. This
increases the cost of refreshing the display list, so a cache will
need to be added in a future change.
Converters for C64 PETSCII and C64 Screen Code have been defined.
The results of changing the auto-scan encoding can now be viewed.
The string operand formatter was using a single delimiter, but for
the on-screen version we want open-quote and close-quote, and might
want to identify some encodings with a prefix. The formatter now
takes a class that defines the various parts. (It might be worth
replacing the delimiter patterns recently added for single-character
operands with this, so we don't have two mechanisms for very nearly
the same thing.)
While working on this change I remembered why there were two kinds
of "reverse" in the old Merlin 32 string operand generator: what you
want for assembly code is different from what you want on screen.
The ReverseMode enum has been resurrected.
The previous code output a character in single-quotes if it was
standard ASCII, double-quotes if high ASCII, or hex if it was neither
of those. If a flag was set, high ASCII would also be output as
hex.
The new system takes the character value and an encoding identifier.
The identifier selects the character converter and delimiter
pattern, and puts the two together to generate the operand.
While doing this I realized that I could trivially support high
ASCII character arguments in all assemblers by setting the delimiter
pattern to "'#' | $80".
In FormatDescriptor, I had previously renamed the "Ascii" sub-type
"LowAscii" so it wouldn't be confused, but I dislike filling the
project file with "LowAscii" when "Ascii" is more accurate and less
confusing. So I switched it back, and we now check the project
file version number when deciding what to do with an ASCII item.
The CharEncoding tests/converters were also renamed.
Moved the default delimiter patterns to the string table.
Widened the delimiter pattern input fields slightly. Added a read-
only TextBox with assorted non-typewriter quotes and things so
people have something to copy text from.
High ASCII and other encodings will be noted in the operand field,
not the opcode, so we no longer need these.
This removes the six input fields from the Pseudo-Op tab of app
settings. Values were stored as a serialized class in settings,
which generally works correctly as far as forward/backward
compatibility goes, so no worries there.
This also adds four "delimiter pattern" fields to the Code View tab,
allowing the user to customize how encoded strings are marked up
for the code list. The values aren't actually used yet.
Also, fixed an issue where changes to text fields on the Pseudo-Op
tab weren't raising the dirty flag.
We've been treating ASCII strings and instruction/data operands as
ambiguous, resolving low vs. high when generating output for the
display or assembler. This change splits it into two separate
formats, simplifying output generation.
The UI will continue to treat low/high ASCII as as single thing,
selecting the format appropriately based on the data. There's no
reason to have two radio buttons that are never both enabled.
The data operand string functions need some additional work, but
that overlaps substantially with the upcoming PETSCII changes, so
for now all strings set by the data operand editor are low ASCII.
The file format has changed again, but since there hasn't been a
release since the previous change, I'm leaving the file format
at v2. Code has been added to resolve the ASCII mode when loading
a v1 project file.
This removes some complexity from the assembly code generators.
DCI is handled with the ".shift" pseudo-op. The .null, .ptext,
and .shift operators all work correctly with escaped characters,
so we no longer redo those.
This generalizes the string pseudo-operand formatter, moving it into
the Asm65 library. The assembly source generators have been updated
to use it. This makes the individual generators simpler, and by
virtue of avoiding "test runs" should make them slightly faster.
This also introduces byte-to-character converters, though we're
currently still only supporting low/high ASCII.
Regression test output is unchanged.
We used to use type="String", with the sub-type indicating whether
the string was null-terminated, prefixed with a length, or whatever.
This didn't leave much room for specifying a character encoding,
which is orthogonal to the sub-type.
What we actually want is to have the type specify the string type,
and then have the sub-type determine the character encoding. These
sub-types can also be used with the Numeric type to specify the
encoding of character operands.
This change updates the enum definitions and the various bits of
code that use them, but does not add any code for working with
non-ASCII character encodings.
The project file version number was incremented to 2, since the new
FormatDescriptor serialization is mildly incompatible with the old.
(Won't explode, but it'll post a complaint and ignore the stuff
it doesn't recognize.)
While I was at it, I finished removing DciReverse. It's still part
of the 2005-string-types regression test, which currently fails
because the generated source doesn't match.
In the cross-reference table we now indicate whether the reference
source is doing a read, write, read-modify-write, branch, subroutine
call, is just referencing the address, or is part of the data.
The cc65 assembler runs in a single pass, which means forward
address references default to 16 bits. For zero-page references
we have to add an explicit width disambiguator. (This is an
unusual situation that only occurs if you have a zero-page .ORG
in the file after code that references it.)
With this change, 2014-label-dp passes, and no other regression
tests were affected.
(issue #40)
The 2014-label-dp test now passes. Prior regression tests are
unaffected.
Also, renamed an IGenerator interface to more accurately reflect
its role.
(issue #37)
To avoid confusing the assembler, expressions with a leading
parenthesis like "(foo & $ffff) + 1" are prefixed with a "0+". This
is not necessary if the operand begins with a '#'.
(issue #16)
Most tests pass, but 2007-labels-and-symbols fails because the
expressions recognized by 64tass don't match up with either of the
other assemblers.
This is currently using a workaround for the local label syntax.
64tass uses '_' as the prefix, which is unfortunate since SourceGen
explicitly allowed underscores in labels. (So does 64tass for that
matter, but it treats labels specially when the '_' comes first.)
We will need to rename any non-local user labels that start with '_'.
(issue #16)
Changed the "quick config" buttons for the asm config and pseudo-op
tabs into a drop-list and "set" button. The default values for
each assembler are now defined in the Asm*.cs file, rather than in
the settings code.
Rather than have each assembler get its own app config string for
the cross-assembler executable, we now have a collection of per-
assembler config items, of which the executable path name is one
member. The Asm Config tab has an auto-generated pop-up to select
the assembler.
The per-assembler settings block is serialized with the rather
unpleasant JSON-in-JSON approach, but nobody should have to look
at it.
This also adds assembler-specific column widths to the settings
dialog, though they aren't actually used yet.
Each supported assembler has an IGenerator interface and an
IAssembler interface. They're still two separate classes, but now
both are implemented in the same source file. (They'll probably
stay separate classes, since the two have little interaction.)
I'm keeping the "Asm*" filename. Seems the more natural fit.
Also, changed AssemblerInfo to try to get all assembler-specific
stuff into a single table.
