# 6502bench Source Code Notes #
|
|
|
|
All of the code is written in C# .NET, using the (free to download) Visual
|
|
Studio Community 2022 IDE as the primary development environment. The user
|
|
interface uses the WPF API, targeted at .NET Framework 4.6.2.
|
|
To build the sources, clone the git repository and open "WorkBench.sln"
|
|
in Visual Studio 2019 or later. The Solution file is called
|
|
"WorkBench.sln" rather than "6502bench.sln" because some things in
|
|
Visual Studio got weird when it didn't start with a letter.
|
|
|
|
When installing Visual Studio, be sure to include ".NET Desktop Development".
|
|
You may also need to install the .NET Framework 4.6.2 "Dev Pack" (as a
|
|
separate download, or via the "individual components" tab in the
|
|
Visual Studio Installer).
|
|
|
|
The code style is closer to what Android uses than "standard" C#. Lines
|
|
are folded to fit 100 columns.

## SourceGen Points of Interest ##
|
|
|
|
Places to start...
|
|
|
|
The main window UI is in WpfGui/MainWindow.xaml[.cs]. Much of the
|
|
implementation lives in MainController.cs.
|
|
|
|
The top-level object for the project data is DisasmProject.cs. The
|
|
Analyze() method drives the code and data analysis process. ApplyChanges()
|
|
is the heart of the undo/redo system.
|
|
|
|
Source code generation and assembler execution is routed through
|
|
AsmGen/AssemblerInfo.cs. If you want to add support for a new
|
|
cross-assembler, start by adding new entries to the enum and data
|
|
tables there.
|
|
|
|
Nothing specific to a target system is baked into the main application. The
|
|
SourceGen/RuntimeData directory has the system definitions used for the
|
|
"new project" list, along with subdirectories with symbol files and extension
|
|
scripts. The [README file there](SourceGen/RuntimeData/README.md)
|
|
explains a bit more.
