The 65816 definition makes it a two-byte instruction, like COP. On
the 6502 it acted like a two-byte instruction, but in practice very
few assemblers treat it that way. Very few humans, for that matter.
So it's now treated as a single byte instruction, with the following
byte encoded as a data value.
This worked, sort of. The problem is that SourceGen will revert to
hex output in certain situations, such as a broken symbolic
reference. There happens to be one in the ZIPPY example, and it's
on a relative branch.
The goal with the segment stuff is to allow cc65 to treat the
source as relocatable code. In that context, a relative branch to
an absolute address doesn't make any sense, so the assembler reports
a range error.
We don't currently have a mechanism that guarantees no references
are broken (and no affordance for finding them), so we can't make
this mode the default yet.
Instead, we continue to use the generic config, but generate the
correct set of lines as comments.

The system configuration you get with "-t none" works for smaller
files but fails for larger ones. This updates the generator to
produce a source file and linker script pair. (I kinda saw this
one coming -- it's why the gen/asm dialog has a combo box for the
file preview -- so it didn't require that much work.)
This currently generates a fixed script for a generic system with
64KiB of RAM, using .ORGs to set the addresses as before.
With this change, assembling a file with 65536 NOPs succeeds.
(issue #39)
The cc65 assembler runs in a single pass, which means forward
address references default to 16 bits. For zero-page references
we have to add an explicit width disambiguator. (This is an
unusual situation that only occurs if you have a zero-page .ORG
in the file after code that references it.)
With this change, 2014-label-dp passes, and no other regression
tests were affected.
(issue #40)
The 2014-label-dp test now passes. Prior regression tests are
unaffected.
Also, renamed an IGenerator interface to more accurately reflect
its role.
(issue #37)
To avoid confusing the assembler, expressions with a leading
parenthesis like "(foo & $ffff) + 1" are prefixed with a "0+". This
is not necessary if the operand begins with a '#'.
(issue #16)
Gave cc65 its own expression generator, as the precedence table seems
atypical if not unique. Configured 64tass to use the "simple"
expression mode.
Added some operations on a 32-bit constant to 2007-labels-and-symbols
to exercise the current worst-case expression (shift + AND + add).
Tweaked the Merlin expression generator to handle it.
(issue #16)
Most tests pass, but 2007-labels-and-symbols fails because the
expressions recognized by 64tass don't match up with either of the
other assemblers.
This is currently using a workaround for the local label syntax.
64tass uses '_' as the prefix, which is unfortunate since SourceGen
explicitly allowed underscores in labels. (So does 64tass for that
matter, but it treats labels specially when the '_' comes first.)
We will need to rename any non-local user labels that start with '_'.
(issue #16)
Changed the "quick config" buttons for the asm config and pseudo-op
tabs into a drop-list and "set" button. The default values for
each assembler are now defined in the Asm*.cs file, rather than in
the settings code.
Rather than have each assembler get its own app config string for
the cross-assembler executable, we now have a collection of per-
assembler config items, of which the executable path name is one
member. The Asm Config tab has an auto-generated pop-up to select
the assembler.
The per-assembler settings block is serialized with the rather
unpleasant JSON-in-JSON approach, but nobody should have to look
at it.
This also adds assembler-specific column widths to the settings
dialog, though they aren't actually used yet.
Each supported assembler has an IGenerator interface and an
IAssembler interface. They're still two separate classes, but now
both are implemented in the same source file. (They'll probably
stay separate classes, since the two have little interaction.)
I'm keeping the "Asm*" filename. Seems the more natural fit.
Also, changed AssemblerInfo to try to get all assembler-specific
stuff into a single table.
