<h2>Using SourceGen</h2>
|
|
|
|
<div class="grid-container">
|
|
<div class="grid-item-text">
|
|
<p>This first section covers the basics of working with SourceGen: how to
|
|
move around, make edits, generate code, and so on.
|
|
SourceGen has some unusual features, so it's worth reading through this
|
|
even if you've used other disassemblers.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can't do anything useful until you open an existing project or
|
|
create a new one, so we'll start there.</p>
|
|
</div>

|
|
|
|
<div class="grid-container">
|
|
<div class="grid-item-text">
|
|
<p>A SourceGen project is always associated with a data file, which
|
|
holds part or all of the program being disassembled.
|
|
For simplicity, the project is given the same name as the data file, with
|
|
<code>.dis65</code> on the end.
|
|
No part of the data file is included in the project file, so you need
|
|
to keep both files in the same place.
|
|
If the program you're disassembling was split into more than one data
|
|
file, you'll need a separate project file for each.</p>
|
|

|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="grid-item-text">
|
|
<p>To start a new project, launch SourceGen, and click on the
|
|
"Start New Project" button on
|
|
the initial screen, or use <samp>File > New</samp>. This opens the "New Project"
|
|
window, which lets you specify the target system and data file.</p>
|
|

</div>
|
|
<div class="grid-item-text">
|
|
<p>Choosing a target system, such as Apple //e or Commodore 64, will
|
|
create a project configured with the appropriate CPU and options.
|
|
If nothing in the list matches the file you want to work on,
|
|
there are "generic" entries for each
|
|
of the primary CPU varieties (6502, 65C02, W65C02, and 65816). If
|
|
you're unsure, just take your best guess. It's easy to change things after the
|
|
project has been started.</p>
|
|
<p>The area on the right side of the window has a list of the files, scripts,
|
|
and optional features that will be enabled for the
|
|
selected system. The various items here will be explained in more
|
|
detail later on.</p>

</div>
|
|
<div class="grid-item-text">
|
|
<p>For this tutorial, we're going to use "<samp>Generic 6502</samp>",
|
|
near the bottom of the list.</p>
|
|
<p>The other thing we need to do here is select the data file to be
|
|
disassembled. Click <samp>Select File</samp>, navigate to the <samp>Examples</samp>
|
|
directory in the SourceGen installation directory, open <samp>Tutorial</samp>,
|
|
and select <samp>Tutorial1</samp>.
|
|
<p>Click <samp>OK</samp> to create the project.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<div class="grid-container">
|
|
<div class="grid-item-text">
|
|
<p>The first thing you should do after creating a new project is save it.
|
|
Some features create or load files from the directory where the project
|
|
file lives, so we want to establish that. Use <samp>File > Save</samp>
|
|
or <kbd class="key">Ctrl+S</kbd> to save it, with the default name
|
|
(<kbd>Tutorial1.dis65</kbd>), in the directory where the data file lives.</p>
|
|
<p>(It's okay to create the project in the installation directory. You
|
|
don't need to work off of a copy of the data file; SourceGen doesn't modify
|
|
it, so you don't have to worry about trashing the example data.)</p>

<div class="grid-item-text">
|
|
<p>The disassembly display can be tailored to your personal
|
|
preferences. Use <samp>Edit > Settings</samp> to open the
|
|
settings editor. You can change fonts, upper/lower case, text
|
|
delimiters, line wrapping, pseudo-op names, and more. There
|
|
are "quick set" buttons on some screens that allow you to make the
|
|
output resemble various popular assemblers.</p>

<div class="grid-container">

<div class="grid-item-text">
|
|
<p>All app settings are local to your system, and do not affect
|
|
the project in any way. If somebody else opens the same project,
|
|
they may see entirely different pseudo-ops and upper-case choices,
|
|
based on their own personal preferences.
|
|
(The settings that affect projects are accessed through a
|
|
different screen, via <samp>Edit > Project Properties</samp>.)</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>For now, you can leave everything set to default values.</p>
