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.
Instead of providing no-op CheckJsr/CheckJsl, plugins now declare
which calls they support by defining interfaces on the plugin class.
I added a CheckBrk call for code like Apple /// SOS calls, which
use BRK as an OS call mechanism. The formatting doesn't work quite
right yet because I've been treating BRK as a two-byte instruction.
Hardly anything else does, and I think it's time I stopped (but not
in this commit).
Note: THIS BREAKS ALL PLUGINS that use the inline JSR/JSL feature,
which is pretty much all of them.
- Updated the tutorial to track changes to WPF, and to clarify
existing content.
- Fixed Ctrl+H Ctrl+C, which was getting masked by the Copy command
handler.
- Fixed initial selection of address in Set Address.
- MakeDist now copies CommonWPF.dll.
- Spent a bunch of time tracking down a null-pointer deref that only
happened when you didn't start with a config file. Fixed.
- The NPE was causing the program to exit without any sort of useful
diagnostic, so I added an uncaught exception handler that writes
the crash to a text file in the current directory.
- Added a trace listener definition to App.config that writes log
messages to a file, but it can't generally be enabled at runtime
because you can't write files from inside the sandbox. So it's
there but commented out.
- Made the initial size of the main window a little wider.
The filtering uses the DataGrid View filtering mechanism. The
built-in sorting only operates on a single column, and we really
want a secondary sort on label when the type is used as the key,
so we provide a custom sort method.
SourceGen creates "auto" labels when it finds a reference to an
address that doesn't have a label associated with it. The label for
address $1234 would be "L1234". This change allows the project to
specify alternative label naming conventions, annotating them with
information from the cross-reference data. For example, a subroutine
entry point (i.e. the target of a JSR) would be "S_1234". (The
underscore was added to avoid confusion when an annotation letter
is the same as a hex digit.)
Also, tweaked the way the preferred clipboard line format is stored
in the settings file (was an integer, now an enumeration string).
In the cross-reference table we now indicate whether the reference
source is doing a read, write, read-modify-write, branch, subroutine
call, is just referencing the address, or is part of the data.
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.
(issue #39)
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)
In the data operand edit section, walk through selecting a single
byte vs. multiple bytes when you want to set a multi-byte format.
(inspired by issue #41)
If you double-click on the opcode of "JSR label", the code view
selection jumps to the label. This now works for partial operands,
e.g. "LDA #<label".
Some changes to the find-label-offset code affected the cc65 "is it
a forward reference to a direct-page label" logic. The regression
test now correctly identifies an instruction that refers to itself
as not being a forward reference.
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)
This is primarily to exercise a Merlin 32 failure (issue #37).
However, it also exercises a problem with cc65 (issue #40).
Currently, only 64tass can assemble this project.
Change 80da6c replaced \u23e9 (black right-pointing double triangle)
with a downward-pointing triangle, because it didn't render under
Win7 or Linux. It was also being used in the "info" window. This
change replaces that occurrence with a right-pointing triangle.
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)
This adds a null check on the dfd argument in FormatDataOp() to see
if we can prevent a crash. The opcode/operand are presented as
"!FAILED!" to make it obvious to the user that something has gone
wrong. Hopefully this will allow capture of a project that exhibits
the problem.
Before you could choose between Merlin-style and generic. Now
there's a combo box that lets you choose Merlin, cc65, or
"common", the latter being used for 64tass.
We now insert parenthesis as needed. This can cause problems in
some situations, so we always prefix parenthetical expressions with
"0+", which looks goofy and is unnecessary for immediate operands.
But it does generate working source code.
Renamed the "simple" expression mode to "common", as it's not
particularly simple but is what you'd expect most assemblers to do.
(OTOH, life has been full of surprises.)
