TODO
|
|
====
|
|
|
|
- implement the asm for bitshift on arrays (last missing assembly code generation)
|
|
|
|
- add a library asm routine to plot a single bitmap pixel
|
|
- create real assembly routines for the bresenham line and circle and disc code in bitmap gfx
|
|
- also add assembly routines for drawing rectangles (filled/open) in bitmap gfx
|
|
- add a turtle example once we have such highres drawing routines
|
|
|
|
- aliases for imported symbols for example perhaps '%alias print = c64scr.print'
|
|
- option to load library files from a directory instead of the embedded ones (easier library development/debugging)
|

Memory Block Operations integrated in language?
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
array/string memory block operations?
|
|
|
|
- array operations
|
|
copy (from another array with the same length), shift-N(left,right), rotate-N(left,right)
|
|
clear (set whole array to the given value, default 0)
|
|
|
|
- array operations ofcourse work identical on vars and on memory mapped vars of these types.
|
|
|
|
- strings: identical operations as on array.
|
|
|
|
For now, we have the ``memcopy`` and ``memset`` builtin functions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
More optimizations
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Add more compiler optimizations to the existing ones.
|
|
|
|
- remove unreachable code after an exit(), return or goto
|
|
- working subroutine inlining (start with trivial routines, grow to taking care of vars and identifier refs to them)
|
|
- add a compiler option to not include variable initialization code (useful if the program is expected to run only once, such as a game)
|
|
the program will then rely solely on the values as they are in memory at the time of program startup.
|
|
- Also some library routines and code patterns could perhaps be optimized further
|
|
- can the parameter passing to subroutines be optimized to avoid copying?
|
|
- more optimizations on the language AST level
|
|
- more optimizations on the final assembly source level
|
|
|
|

Eval stack redesign? (lot of work)
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
The eval stack is now a split lsb/msb stack using X as the stackpointer.
|
|
Is it easier/faster to just use a single page unsplit stack?
|
|
It could then even be moved into the zeropage to greatly reduce code size and slowness.
|
|
|
|
Or just move the LSB portion into a slab of the zeropage.
|
|
|
|
Allocate a fixed word in ZP that is the Top Of Stack value so we can always operate on TOS directly
|
|
without having to index with X into the eval stack all the time?
|
|
This could GREATLY improvde code size and speed for operatios that work on just a single value.
|
|
|

Bug Fixing
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Ofcourse there are always bugs to fix ;)
