<p>6502bench is a code development "workbench" for the 65xx family
|
|
|
|
|
of processors, including the 6502, 65C02, and 65802/65816. It currently
|
|
|
|
|
features one tool, the SourceGen disassembler.</p>

<p><strong>SourceGen</strong> is an industrial-strength disassembler for 6502,
|
|
|
|
|
65C02, and 65816 programs. Key features include:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Fully interactive point-and-click GUI. Define labels, set addresses,
|
|
|
|
|
add comments, and see the results immediately. Add multi-line comments
|
|
|
|
|
and have them word-wrapped automatically.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The disassembly engine traces code execution, automatically finding all
|
|
|
|
|
instructions reachable from a given starting point. Changes to the
|
|
|
|
|
processor status flags are tracked, allowing identification of branches
|
|
|
|
|
that are always/never taken, accurate cycle count listings, and correct
|
|
|
|
|
analysis of 65816 code with variable-width registers.</li>
|
2018-09-30 22:20:46 +00:00
|
|
|
<li>Easy generation of assembly source code in popular formats (currently
|
2019-09-27 21:08:59 +00:00
|
|
|
64tass, ACME, cc65, and Merlin 32). Cross-assemblers can be invoked from the GUI to
|
2018-09-30 22:12:28 +00:00
|
|
|
verify correctness.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Symbols and constants are provided for ROM and operating system entry
|
|
|
|
|
points on several popular systems.</li>
|
2018-10-10 00:31:06 +00:00
|
|
|
<li>Project files are designed for sharing and collaboration.</li>
|

|
|
|
inline data.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Editable labels are generated for every branch destination and data
|
|

|
|
target.</li>
|
2019-09-27 21:08:59 +00:00

|
|
<li>Automatic detection and classification of character strings and runs
|
2018-09-30 22:12:28 +00:00
|
|
|
of identical bytes.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Symbol files for ROM entry points, operating system constants, and
|
2019-09-27 21:08:59 +00:00
|
|
|
other platform-specific data are stored in plain text files loaded at runtime.</li>
|
2018-09-30 22:12:28 +00:00
|
|
|
<li>Extension scripts can be defined that automatically reformat code and
|
2019-09-27 21:08:59 +00:00
|
|
|
identify inline data that follows a JSR, JSL, or BRK.</li>

address, as well as for external platform symbols.</li>
|
2019-09-27 21:08:59 +00:00

|
<li>Instruction operand formats (hex, decimal, binary, character, symbol) can
|
2018-09-30 22:12:28 +00:00
|
|
|
be set for individual instructions. References to nearby symbols are
|
|
|
|
|
offset, allowing simple expressions like "addr + 1".</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Data areas can be formatted in various formats, including individual
|
2019-09-27 21:08:59 +00:00
|
|
|
bytes, 16-bit and 24-bit words, addresses, or strings.
|

<li>Multi-line comments can be "boxed" for an authentic retro feel.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Notes can be added that aren't included in generated output. These

|
|
|
|
|
work in progress.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Instruction summaries, including CPU cycles and flags modified, are
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
upper/lower case, pseudo-opcode naming, and expression formats. These
|
|
|
|
|
choices are not part of the project definition, so everyone can view a
|
|
|
|
|
project according to their own personal preferences.</li>

<p>SourceGen is written in C# .NET, using the (free to download) Visual
|
|
|
|
|
Studio Community 2017 IDE as the primary development environment.
|
|
|
|
|
The user interface uses the WPF API.
