This is the first step toward changing the address region map from a
linear list to a hierarchy. See issue #107 for the plan.
The AddressMap class has been rewritten to support the new approach.
The rest of the project has been updated to conform to the new API,
but feature-wise is unchanged. While the map class supports
nested regions with explicit lengths, the rest of the application
still assumes a series of non-overlapping regions with "floating"
lengths.
The Set Address dialog is currently non-functional.
All of the output for cc65 changed because generation of segment
comments has been removed. Some of the output for ACME changed as
well, because we no longer follow "* = addr" with a redundant
pseudopc statement. ACME and 65tass have similar approaches to
placing things in memory, and so now have similar implementations.
If a DCI string ended with a string delimiter or non-ASCII character
(e.g. a PETSCII char with no ASCII equivalent), the code generator
output the last byte as a hex value. This caused an error because it
was outputting the raw hex value, with the high bit already set, which
the assembler did not expect.
This change corrects the behavior for code generation and on-screen
display, and adds a few samples to the regression test suite.
(see issue #102)
The DCI string format uses character values where the high bit of the
last byte differs from the rest of the string. Usually all the high
bits are clear except on the last byte, but SourceGen generally allows
either polarity.
This gets a little uncertain with single-character strings, because
SourceGen can't auto-detect DCI very effectively. A series of bytes
with the high bit set could be a single high-ASCII string or a series
of single-byte DCI strings.
The motivation for allowing them is C64 PETSCII. While ASCII allows
"high ASCII" as an escape hatch, PETSCII doesn't have that option, so
there's no way to mark the data as a character or a string. We still
want to do a bit of screening, but if the user specifies a non-ASCII
character set and the selected bytes have their high bits set, we
want to just treat the whole set as 1-byte DCI.
Some minor adjustments were needed for a couple of validity checks
that expected longer strings.
This adds some short DCI strings in different character sets to the
char-encoding regression tests.
(for issue #102)
The initial implementation was testing the byte value rather than
the converted value, so backslashes were getting through in high
ASCII strings. PETSCII and C64 screen codes don't really have a
backslash so it's not really an issue there.
The new implementation handles high ASCII correctly. The various
201n0-char-encoding-x regression tests have been updated to verify
this.
We have a single character-encoding test that is cloned 3x so we can
exercise the different values for the project's default character
set. It was a 65816 test because it tested 16-bit immediate char
operands, but that's a very small part of it.
The 65816-specific portion is now 20122-char-encoding. The rest is
now 201{2,3,4}0-char-encoding-X.
