Sta Functions
This library contains functions to access and manipulate a stack. The
entries on a stack are stored in contiguous bytes of memory.
Each element of the stack can vary in size from 1 to 255 bytes. Both
arrays and strings may be pushed onto and pulled off the stack.
Usage: at the beginning of the program use the directives
#include <stddef.h02>
#include <memory.h02>
#include <string.h02>
#include <stack.h02>
The following application functions are defined:
stkbgn(&b); Stack Begin: Sets the beginning of the stack
to address b.
The beginning of a stack is the first byte
of memory in the stack space.
Although stack space usually begins on a 256
byte boundary, this is not required.
Note: Sets variables stkslo and stkshi.
stkend(&e); Stack End: Sets the end of the stack to address
e. The end of a stack is the byte after the last
byte of memory in the stack space.
Although stack space usually ends on a 256
byte boundary, this is not required.
Note: Sets variables stkelo and steshi.
stkrst(); Stack Reset: Set stack pointer to stack begin
address.
This routine is called before populating a
stack with calls to the stkpsh function.
r = stkpsh(n ,&m); Stack Push: Creates a new entry at the end of
the stack consisting of n bytes of array m.
If n is 0 or the new entry would overflow the
end of the stack space, no entry is created and
a value of 0 is returned. Otherwise, the number
of bytes in the new entry is returned.
Note: Sets dstlo and dsthi to stkslo and stkhi
prior to the copy, updates stkslo and stkshi,
then calls the memcpy function.
r = stkstr(&s); Stack String: Creates a new entry at the end of
the stack consisting the characters in string
s, including the terminating ASCII null. This
ensures that when the entry is popped off the
stack, the destination string will be properly
terminated.
If the string is empty or the bew entry would
overflow the end of the stack space, no entry is
created and a value of 0 is returned. Otherwise,
the number of bytes in the new entry is returned.
Note: Calls the strlen function, then calls the
stkpsh function.
r = stkpop(&m); Stack Pop: Copies the bytes from the last entry of
the stack into array m and removes the entry from
the stack.
If the stack is empty, the value 0 is returned.
Otherwise, the number of bytes in the popped entry
is returned.
Note: Sets dstlo and dsthi to the address of m,
updates stklo and stkhi to point to the beginning
of the last entry, sets srclo and srchi to stklo
and stkhi, then calls the memcpy function.
r = stktop(&m); Stack Top: Copies the bytes from the last entry of
the stack into array m and leaves the entry on the
stack.
If the stack is empty, the value 0 is returned.
Otherwise, the number of bytes in the entry is
returned.
Note: Calls stkpop, then restores stklo and stkhi
to their prior values.
r = stkdup(); Stack Duplicate: Creates a new entry at the end of
the stack consisting of the bytes in the last entry
of the stack.
If the stack is empty or the new entry would
overflow the end of the stack space, no entry is
created and a value of 0 is returned. Otherwise,
the number of bytes in the new entry is returned.
Note: Sets dstlo and dsthi to the stklo and stkhi,
sets srclo and srchi to point to the beginning
of the last entry, updates stklo and stkhi, then
calls the memcpy function.
r = stkovr(); Stack Over: Creates a new entry at the end of
the stack consisting of the bytes in the second
to last entry of the stack.
If there are less than two entries in the stack
or the new entry would overflow the end of the
stack space, no entry is created and a value of
0 is returned. Otherwise, the number of bytes in
the new entry is returned.
Note: Sets dstlo and dsthi to the stklo and stkhi,
sets srclo and srchi to point to the beginning
of the second to last entry, updates stklo and
stkhi, then calls the memcpy function.
stkswp(n); Stack Swap: Moves the last entry in the stack to
the second to last position and the second to
last entry to the last position.
If there are less than two entries in the stack
or there is not enough room in the stack space
to make a copy of the second to last entry, the
entries are not swapped and a value of 0 is
returned. Otherwise, the number of bytes in the
new last entry is returned.
Note: Calls stkovr, creating a copy of the second
to last stack entry, restores stklo and stkhi to
their original values, then calls the memcpy twice.
*,m,l = stkptr(); Stack Pointer: Returns the address contained in
the stack pointer as the most significant byte
and the least significant byte.
This is a utility function not normally used in
application code.
Note: Gets variables stkslo and stkshi.
stkset(&d); Stack Set: Sets stack pointer to address d.
This is a utility function not normally used in
application code.
Note: Sets variables stkslo and stkshi.
Note: This library expects the following functions to be defined
memcpl Copy memory (alternate entry point)
ressrc Restore source pointer
resrxy Restore X and Y registers
savrxy Save X and Y registers
setdst Set destination pointer
setsrc Set source pointer and initialize index
strlen Get string length
along with the zero page variable pairs
srclo, srchi Source String Pointer
dstlo, dsthi Destination String Pointer
stklo, stkhi stack Pointer
the static variable
stkslo, stkshi Stack Start Address
stkelo, stkehi Stack End Address
as well as the transient variables
temp0, temp1 Temporary storage
temp2, temp3
