While it's okay to use ';', the classic Merlin editor will treat it
as an end-of-line comment and shove the entire thing off to the right
side of the screen.
This adds a configuration item to the app settings, with a default
value of ';'.
It was defined as a struct with exposed fields. Now it's a class
with simple properties. Default values are set explicitly, and
the contents are copied with a copy constructor instead of using
the struct member assignment.
The only functional change should be that the DelimiterSet members
are now properly cloned. The bulk of the changes are just refactoring
renames for the property names.
This also adds comments for all the properties.
We currently have two options for assembly code output, selected by
a checkbox in the application settings: always put labels on the same
lines as the instruction or data operand, or split the labels onto
their own line if they were wider than the label text field.
This change adds a third option, which puts labels on their own line
whenever possible. Assemblers don't generally allow this for variable
assignment pseudo-ops like "foo = $1000", but it's accepted for most
other situations. This is a cosmetic change to the output, and will
not affect the generated code.
The old true/false app setting will be disregarded. "Split if too
long" will be used by default.
Added test 20280-label-placement to exercise the "split whenever
allowed" behavior.
The "export" function has a similar option that has not been updated
(for no particular reason other than laziness).
Also, simplified the app settings GetEnum / SetEnum calls, which
can infer the enumerated type from the arguments. This should not
impact behavior.
If a symbol is marked as "exported", it is added to the symbol table
generated at the end of the HTML output. If the symbol identifies a
non-addressable location, we need to show that.
Also, added a header row.
The existing API was better suited to direct color than indexed
color. The NES visualizer was using a slightly silly hack to avoid
duplicate colors; this has been removed.
Modified "jump to" code to understand address range start/end lines.
If there are multiple starts or ends at the same offset, we jump to
the first one in the set, which is suboptimal but simpler to do.
Simplified the API, embedding GoToMode in the Location object (which
is where it really needs to be, to make fwd/back work right).
Updated HTML export to grey out addresses in NON_ADDR sections.
Changed default pseudo-op strings for address regions to ".addrs" and
".adrend", after trying a bunch of things that were worse. Added
definitions for region-end pseudo-ops to Merlin32 and cc65 for display
on screen.
Added regression test 20260 for address region pre-labels.
Fixed handling of leading underscores in platform/project symbols.
These need to be escaped in 64tass output. Updated regression test
20170-external-symbols to check it.
Split ".org" into ".arstart" and ".arend" (address range start/end).
Address range ends are now shown in the code list view, and the
pseudo-op can be edited in app settings. Address range starts are
now shown after notes and long comments, rather than before, which
brings the on-screen display in sync with generated code.
Reworked the address range editor UI to include the new features.
The implementation is fully broken.
More changes to the AddressMap API, putting the resolved region length
into a separate ActualLength field. Added FindRegion(). Renamed
some things.
Code generation changed slightly: the blank line before a region-end
line now comes after it, and ACME's "} ;!pseudopc" is now just "}".
This required minor updates to some of the regression test results.
There's no need to use XHTML Transitional. The only change outside
the template was to use "id" for anchors instead of "name", as the
latter is deprecated.
Added a "fake" assembler pseudo-op for DBR changes. Display entries
in line list.
Added entry to double-click handler so that you can double-click on
a PLB instruction operand to open the data bank editor.
When generating the HTML anchor name element we need to remove the
trailing '?' from the label. It wasn't present in the hrefs, so all
links to annotated labels were broken.
Generation of HTML is extremely fast, but compressing thousands
of frames for wireframe animated GIFs can take a little while.
Sharing bitmaps between threads required two changes: (1) bitmaps
need to be "frozen" after being drawn; (2) you can't use Path because
BackgroundWorker isn't a STAThread. You can, however, use a
DrawingVisual / DrawingContext to do the rendering. Which is really
what I should have been doing all along; I just didn't know the
approach existed until I was forced to go looking for it.
Also, we now do a "run finalizers" call before generating an animated
GIF. Without it things explode after more than 10K GDI objects have
been allocated.
Moved X/Y/Z rotation out of the plugin, since it has nothing to do
with the plugin at all. (Backface removal and perspective projection
are somewhat based on the data contents, as is the choice for
whether or not they should be options.)
Added sliders for X/Y/Z rotation. Much more fun that way.
Renamed VisualizationAnimation to VisBitmapAnimation, as we're not
going to use it for wireframe animation. Created a new class to
hold wireframe animation data, which is really just a reference to
the IVisualizationWireframe so we can generate an animated GIF
without having to pry open the plugin again.
Renamed the "frame-delay-msec" parameter, which should start with
an underscore to ensure it doesn't clash with plugin parameters.
If we don't find it with an underscore we check again without for
backward compatibility.
We're generating names that nothing links to. The names aren't
guaranteed unique, so they're of dubious value anyway.
Also, fixed the Atari 2600 visualizer script filename in sys defs.
- Break up long sequences of visualization images in exported HTML
to avoid horizontal scrolling. Lines don't fold in "pre" mode,
and switching out of "pre" is ugly, so we just break at an
arbitrary point.
- Use a slightly different filename for animated GIFs.
- When moving items up/down in the visualization set editor or
bitmap animation editor, scroll the datagrid to keep the selected
item in view.
- Fix a wayward assert.
As with still images, animations are rendered at original size and
then scaled with HTML properties.
Also, fixed the blurry scaling on animation thumbnails. I couldn't
find a way to do nearest-neighbor scaling in the code-behind without
resorting to System.Drawing (WinForms), so I added an overlay image
to the various grids.
Visualization animations are now exported as animated GIFs. The
Windows stuff is a bit lame so I threw together some code that
stitches a bunch of GIFs together.
The GIF doesn't quite match the preview, because the preview scales
the individual frames, while the animated GIF uses the largest frame
as the size and is then scaled based on that. Animating frames of
differing sizes together is bound to be trouble anyway, so I'm not
sure how much to fret over this.
We now generate GIF images for visualizations and add inline
references to them in the HTML output.
Images are scaled using the HTML img properties. This works well
on some browsers, but others insist on "smooth" scaling that blurs
out the pixels. This may require a workaround.
An extra blank line is now added above visualizations. This helps
keep the image and data visually grouped.
The Apple II bitmap test project was updated to have a visualization
set with multiple images at the top of the file.
Having underlined blue text everywhere was too noisy. This changes
the CSS style for internal links to be plain black text that gets
blue and underliney when you hover the mouse over it.
Also, added the current date and time to the set of template
substitutions.
HTML output should have had double quotes around internal anchors.
(Chrome and Edge didn't complain, but the w3c validator wasn't
happy.)
Made the text areas in the load-time problem report dialogs
scrollable.
Updated the manual.
It felt a little weird tying it to the asm generation setting,
so now it's just another checkbox in the export options.
Implemented the feature for plain text output. Did some rearranging
in the code. Fixed suppression of Notes in text and CSV.
The functions started by trying to pad a column out to a width,
then changed to pad things to a certain length. What they really
should be doing is padding the start of an entry to a specified
column. This is much more natural and avoids a trim operation.
The only change to the output is to ORG statements from the HTML
exporter, which are now formatted correctly.
We weren't escaping '<', '>', and '&', which caused browsers to get
very confused. Browsers seem to prefer <PRE> to <CODE> for long
blocks of text, so switch to that.
Also, added support for putting long labels on their own lines in
the HTML output.
Also, fixed some unescaped angle brackets in the manual.
Also, tweaked the edit instruction operand a bit more.
This feature "exports" the source code in the same format it appears
in on screen. The five columns on the left are optional, the four
on the right can be resized. Exported text can span the entire file
or just the current selection. Output can be plain text or CSV.
(I still haven't figured out a good use for CSV.)
The old copy-to-clipboard function is now implemented via the export
mechanism.
This adds a new clipboard mode that includes all columns. Potentially
useful for filing bug reports against SourceGen.
Ported the column width stuff from EditAppSettings, which it turns
out can be simplified slightly.
Moved the clipboard copy code out into its own class.
Disabled "File > Print", which has never done anything and isn't
likely to do anything in the near future.
Also, added a note to 2019-local-variables about a test case it
should probably have.
