Note that address region isolation doesn't prevent explicit label
references from working (add update the test to prove it).
Added a note about pre-label xrefs.
Consider:
LDA $00 loads a value from address $00
LDA $00,X might load from $00, or might not
LDA ($00),Y dereferences $00 as a 16-bit pointer
LDA ($00,X) dereferences a pointer, not necessarily from $00
When perusing the cross-reference list, it's useful to be able to
tell whether an instruction is accessing the location, using it as a
base address, or deferencing it as a pointer. We now show "ptr" in
the list for pointer dereferences. (We already showed "idx" for
indexed accesses.)
Sometimes it's useful to know whether an address referenced by a
function is a direct access, or is being used as a base address.
(I'm somewhat undecided on this one, since it clutters up the list
a bit. Giving it a try.)
In 1.5.0-dev1, as part of changes to the way label localization
works, the local variable de-duplicator started checking against a
filtered copy of the symbol table. Unfortunately it never
re-generated the table, so a long-lived LocalVariableLookup (like
the one used by LineListGen) would set up the dup map wrong and
be inconsistent with other parts of the program.
We now regenerate the table on every Reset().
The de-duplication stuff also had problems when opcodes and
operands were double-clicked on. When the opcode is clicked, the
selection should jump to the appropriate variable declaration, but
it wasn't being found because the label generated in the list was
in its original form. Fixed.
When an instruction operand is double-clicked, the instruction operand
editor opens with an "edit variable" shortcut. This was showing
the de-duplicated name, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it
was passing that value on to the DefSymbol editor, which thought it
was being asked to create a new entry. Fixed. (Entering the editor
through the LvTable editor works correctly, with nary a de-duplicated
name in sight. You'll be forced to rename it because it'll fail the
uniqueness test.)
References to de-duplicated local variables were getting lost when
the symbol's label was replaced (due largely to a convenient but
flawed shortcut: xrefs are attached to DefSymbol objects). Fixed by
linking the XrefSets.
Given the many issues and their relative subtlety, I decided to make
the modified names more obvious, and went back to the "_DUPn" naming
strategy. (I'm also considering just making it an error and
discarding conflicting entries during analysis... this is much more
complicated than I expected it to be.)
Quick tests can be performed in 2019-local-variables:
- go to +000026, double-click on the opcode, confirm sel change
- go to +000026, double-click on the operand, confirm orig name
shown in shortcut and that shortcut opens editor with orig name
- go to +00001a, down a line, click on PROJ_ZERO_DUP1 and confirm
that it has a single reference (from +000026)
- double-click on var table and confirm editing entry
Implemented local variable editing. Operands that have a local
variable reference, or are eligible to have one, can now be edited
directly from the instruction operand edit dialog.
Also, updated the code list double-click handler so that, if you
double-click on the opcode of an instruction that uses a local
variable reference, the selection and view will jump to the place
where that variable was defined.
Also, tweaked the way the References window refers to references
to an address that didn't use a symbol at that address. Updated
the explanation in the manual, which was a bit confusing.
Also, fixed some odds and ends in the manual.
Also, fixed a nasty infinite recursion bug (issue #47).
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.
