We're doing this for user labels but not for project/platform
symbols. So if you have a constant named "BCC" you can't assemble
your code with certain assemblers. Now we rename it automatically.
Added a quick test to 2007-labels-and-symbols. (No change to ACME,
which barfs on the test.)
We emit address adjustments like "LDA thing+1", which are usually
small values. Sometimes they're large, e.g. "LDA thing-61440",
which is harder to understand than "LDA thing-$F000". So now we
show small adjustments in decimal, and large adjustments in hex.
The current definition of "small" is abs(adjust) < 256.
The label localizer is now always on. The regression tests turned
it off by default, but that's no longer allowed, so the generated
output has changed for many of them. The tests themselves were not
altered.
In the assembler output, add a blank line between the constants
and addresses in the long list of equates.
The earlier change that corrected the BIT instruction caused test
2009-branches-and-banks to fail, because it was relying on the idea
that BIT made the carry flag indeterminate. Changing a BCC to a
BVS restored the desired behavior.
Changed the sort order on EQU lines so that constants come before
address definitions. This caused trivial changes to three of the
regression tests.
Added the ability to jump directly to an EQU line when an opcode
is double-clicked on.
During a discussion with the cc65 developers, I became convinced that
generating "MVN $01,$02" is wrong, and "MVN #$01,#$02" is correct.
64tass, cc65, and Merlin 32 all accept this syntax; only ACME does
not. Operands without a leading '#' should be treated as 24-bit
values, and have the bank byte extracted.
This change updates the on-screen display and assembled output to
include the '#'. The ACME generator uses a Quirk to suppress the
hash mark. (It doesn't currently accept values larger than 8 bits,
so there's no ambiguity.)
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)
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.
