Apple][ ProDOS 8 system program for loading binary programs (Oliver Schmidt)
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
LOADER.SYSTEM - an Apple][ ProDOS 8 loader for cc65 programs (Oliver Schmidt)
|
||||
=============================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Background
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
The ordinary way to run a binary program using ProDOS 8 is to load BASIC.SYSTEM
|
||||
first and enter then from the BASIC prompt 'BRUN MYPROGRAM' or '- MYPROGRAM'.
|
||||
Apple][ ProDOS 8 system programs (filetype SYS) are always loaded into memory
|
||||
starting at location $2000. This poses the problem of how to make efficient
|
||||
use of the memory in the range $0800-$2000. The usual approach of relocation
|
||||
has two downsides:
|
||||
- Relocating e.g. 30 kB from $2000-$9800 to $0800-$8000 takes a considerable
|
||||
amount of time.
|
||||
- Really large programs just don't fit into memory when loaded starting at
|
||||
location $2000.
|
||||
|
||||
Using LOADER.SYSTEM instead to run a binary program has four advantages:
|
||||
The relocation can be eliminated by loading the major part(s) of the program
|
||||
from disk right to the final location by a rather small system program.
|
||||
|
||||
1. The binary program can be selected directly from the ProDOS 8 dispatcher.
|
||||
|
||||
2. The size of BASIC.SYSTEM is 21 blocks while the size of LOADER.SYSTEM is
|
||||
only 1 block. The benefits are:
|
||||
|
||||
- Running a binary program with LOADER.SYSTEM is faster.
|
||||
|
||||
- If the only use of BASIC.SYSTEM is to run binary programs it can be removed
|
||||
altogether thus freeing up precious floppy disk space.
|
||||
|
||||
3. BASIC.SYSTEM can load binary programs into the range $0800-$9600 (35,5 kB)
|
||||
while LOADER.SYSTEM can load much larger binary programs into the range
|
||||
$0800-$BB00 (44,75 kB).
|
||||
|
||||
4. If a binary program needs to reclaim the memory used by BASIC.SYSTEM it has
|
||||
to update the system bit map after being loaded and on exit it must call the
|
||||
ProDOS 8 dispatcher itself. But when run by LOADER.SYSTEM the binary program
|
||||
automatically has access to the range $0800-$BF00 (45,75 kB) just by checking
|
||||
HIMEM. On exit the binary program simply jumps to DOSWARM or DOSCOLD as usual
|
||||
which are set up by LOADER.SYSTEM to call the ProDOS 8 dispatcher (or reboot
|
||||
the computer - see below).
|
||||
LOADER.SYSTEM is such a small program. In fact it's so small that it fits into
|
||||
a single block in the ProDOS 8 file system making it a so-called seedling file,
|
||||
which are loaded really fast. LOADER.SYSTEM can load cc65 programs into memory
|
||||
anywhere in the range $0800-$BB00 (44,75 kB).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Usage
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
Obviously LOADER.SYSTEM has to be told which binary program to run. As the
|
||||
ProDOS 8 dispatcher has no notion of system program parameters the ordinary
|
||||
approach would have been to make LOADER.SYSTEM bring up yet another menu to
|
||||
select the binary program to run.
|
||||
Link the cc65 program to the start address $0803 (or any other address) and
|
||||
store it as binary program (filetype BIN). This is in fact no different from
|
||||
a binary program to be run by BASIC.SYSTEM's BRUN command in the usual way.
|
||||
|
||||
But to allow to select the binary program directly from the ProDOS 8 dispatcher
|
||||
anyway LOADER.SYSTEM detects the path to the binary program from its own path
|
||||
by just removing the '.SYSTEM' from its name. So if you want to run the binary
|
||||
If however the cc65 program isn't run by BASIC.SYSTEM but is rather run by
|
||||
LOADER.SYSTEM then it behaves like a system program which means:
|
||||
- It uses memory up to the ProDOS 8 system global page located at $BF00.
|
||||
- It supports the ProDOS 8 startup file mechanism (mapped to argv[1]).
|
||||
- It quits to the ProDOS 8 dispatcher.
|
||||
|
||||
Obviously LOADER.SYSTEM has to be told which cc65 program to run. Unfortunately
|
||||
the ProDOS 8 dispatcher has no notion of system program parameters so the usual
|
||||
approach would have been to make LOADER.SYSTEM bring up yet another menu to
|
||||
select the cc65 program to run.
|
||||
|
||||
But to allow to select the cc65 program directly from the ProDOS 8 dispatcher
|
||||
anyway LOADER.SYSTEM detects the path to the cc65 program from its own path by
|
||||
just removing the '.SYSTEM' from its name. So if you want to run the cc65
|
||||
program MYPROGRAM you'll need a copy of LOADER.SYSTEM in the same directory
|
||||
being renamed to MYPROGRAM.SYSTEM.
|
||||
|
||||
This means you'll end up with a copy of LOADER.SYSTEM for every binary program
|
||||
you intend to run it. But as LOADER.SYSTEM is a seedling file using up only a
|
||||
single block in the ProDOS 8 file system this should be no issue.

ca65 loader.s

ld65 -C loader.cfg -o loader.system loader.o
|

|

If you want LOADER.SYSTEM to reboot the computer on exit of the binary program

instead of calling the ProDOS 8 dispatcher then use the following commands:

Installation
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
The file 'loader.system' as generated by the cc65 linker does NOT have a 4-byte
|
||||
address/length header as it is generated for ordinary Apple][ binaries. This is
|
||||
because the start address for ProDOS 8 system programs is fixed to $2000.
|
||||
The file 'loader.system' as generated by the cc65 linker with the command above
|
||||
does NOT include the 4-byte address/length header that is generated for Apple][
|
||||
programs by default. This is because ProDOS 8 system programs are always loaded
|
||||
into memory starting at location $2000.
|
||||
|
||||
The recommended way to transfer 'loader.system' from your native file system to
|
||||
a ProDOS 8 file system disk image is to use AppleCommander which is available at
