[*] known bug
[+] known bug but already fixed
Known bugs [Last Updated: 02-Apr-1998]:
* Multiple cursors in monitors.
* Bug when selecting a font and then Canceling the prefs window.
* More editing stuff in menu strip (like with search).
* Bottom line in debugger is not correct when 'show source' is disabled
in prefs. (debugger doesn't work when show source is disabled)
* There are still some macro problems.
* Bitoperators with displacement/index won't work (BFxxx)
* problems with some amiga configs strange cursor/scroll behaviour.
* "move.w ([test,pc],d0*4,2),d0" works but "move.w ([test],d0*4,2),d0"
doesn't..
* Enforcer hits on exit of Asm-pro (only on 060)
* Strange things are printed when starting a blockmark. This will not
corrupt your source though and block copy/past will work correctly.
================= Asm-Pro V1.16 (01-04-1999) =======================
[Public release]
- Changed openscreen stuff In Asm-Pro. When screenmode from prefs
could not be opened a pal/ntsc screen was created.. (not very usefull
when you have a gfx-card.. so now it opens a screenmode requester..
(yes yes I noticed it only after I installed my BVision)
- Fixed debug error with instructions like "move.l #-1,(a1,d1.w*4)"
- "cmp.b #0,var(pc)" works now.
- "fmove.w #1,fp0" works too.
- Fixed move16 problems in the debugger.
- Also fixed brs.l and bra.l troubles in debugger.
- Fixed fmove.b/w in debugger.
- Changed screenmode stuff to handle more than 4 colors. Now you can
open screens from 2 to 16 colors (code works for more than 16 colors
but I dont want to save all of them in the prefsfile).
(some problems with reqtools showing 2 much colors in prefs though)
- Changed fontrequester from reqtools 2 asl.
(will remove all the reqtools stuff for future compatibility)
- Added opcode coloring in syntaxprefs.
- The ':' after a label is now also colored :).
================= Asm-Pro V1.15 (05-12-1998) ========================
[Sinterklaas release] :)
[Public release]
- Changed Write block from Amiga-w to Amiga-W.
- Amiga-w is now same as 'U'pdate (more compatible to existing software).
and also works in the editor (but will end up in command mode will fix
that later).
- Changed the output of an error in an include file. It now shows the correct
include file and 3 lines of code, the middle one is highlighted and
shows the errorline. Then the include line in the current source buffer
is shown..
Like this:
** Undefined Symbol
In file DH1:ASMPRO/INCLUDE/replay/Player6.1.s
11 P61_motuuli:
» 12 bra.w P61_Init
13 ifeq CIA
144 include replay/Player6.1.s
- Change source in commandline with Function keys implemented.
- D$0100000 works again... bit 24 was cleared iso bit 0... oops..
- Added the commandline options RN and WN.
RN will open a filerequester for opening a (source) text file with
no wildcards. should be usefull for editing other text files like
the startup-sequence..
WN will do the same for write source and will also not write the
savemarks on top of the file..
- Recoded the syntax highlighting routine (lot faster) and now it also
handles labels (maybe more to come).
(if you use '*-*-*-*' it will not be colored as a comment coz you can
also do something like this: test = *-2 and then it isn't a comment)
- Fixed bug in changing source buffers when MCP's (060) CopyMemQuick
patch is activated.
- Masked some more chars in hexdump when 'Ascii only' option is set.
- Added -f (force) option to the AUTO directive. When this option is
used no more requesters will popup to report you that the
'File allready exists !! Are you sure ??'. Now it will always
create/overwrite the file.
The force option only has to be used once in a source like in the
example below. It will write Start to End twice without any requesters.
auto -f wb ram:test\Start\End\
auto wb ram:test\Start\End\
Start:
dc.b "Asm-Pro"
End:
- Added Syntax color prefs window.
- Backwards block select will not freeze asmpro anymore. backwards
selection is not colored anymore though (will fix that later).
- Added Line numbers in the source (by popular demand)..
- Added search option in monitor (so you can search for your
favourite opcode from inside the monitor ;).
- jmp ([(label).w,pc,d0.l*4]) works again... (forgot to check for
the last ']')
- Indices with preceeding 0 do assemble now (e.g. move (a0,d0.w*04),d0)
- Fill is amiga+f, insert is Amiga+i or Amiga+v
- After assembling mem pointer will be set to begin of your program.
- Updated the Asmpro.guide file.
================== Asm-Pro V1.14 (02-09-1998) ========================
[Public release]
- All 10 source buffers have there own read/write directory buffer now
so loading a source in buffer 1 will not change the path in buffer 0.
- Save marks are now written in ASCII so you can also read your source
in another editor/txtviewer. The line starts with ";APS" (Asm-Pro
savemarks)
The old savemarks are still supported but only when reading a source
(or includes).
- Ctrl+ESC gets you into the halfscreen editor and scrolling did not work
propperly anymore but it does now... Halfscreen mode is usefull when
you need to see the output of a command line option while editing your
source. (strange nobody ever reported this 2 me).
- Fixed small bug in custom scroll check routine. when CS was selected
and screensize was changed to something other than 640 Wide CS routine
was still used (and not working the way it should).
- Added BinMem dump (BM) to the menu.
(btw you did know about the h.w and m.l memdump stuff changing the
output on screen to word or longword right?
>m.w$1200
00001200 FF60
)
- Workbench screen is not locked anymore if you select WB2Front.
- Added an option to the Env prefs (Scroll Sync.) to make editor updates
wait until next frame. This could fix a scroll problem on some Amiga's.
leave this untoughed if scrolling/editing works fine for you as it slows
down editor speed somewhat.
- Fixed problems with syntax error highlighting (no more enforcer hits).
- Bra.l will not allow labels in another section anymore.
- Fixed section problem when using brackets, so this works now:
start:
jsr ([test])
rts
section another,code ;this was the bottle neck..
test:
dc.l go_on
go_on: nop
rts
================== Asm-Pro V1.13a (29-07-1998) ========================
[Public release]
- Oops little bug in mark block. Some of the text would dissapear when
block mark does not start at the beginning of the line.. Fixed now.
(there are still problems when marking a block backwards though)..
=================== Asm-Pro V1.13 (27-07-1998) ========================
[Public release]
- Fixed problem with BEG> END> when using addresses above $7fffffff
(like on the BlizzardPPC)
- Cmp2.l assembled wrong fixed now.(oops..)
- After a syntax error asmpro will show you how far the parser got in the
error line by changing the color of the part that was not parsed yet.
So the error is right in front of the colored stuff.
(hmm hope you got that.. anyway make some typo in the source and you'll see)
- Added PCR to the debugwindow (only shown when you have a 060) requested some
time ago but sliped my mind as I don't have a 060 :)
- Fixed some internal 060 stuff
- BUSCR and PCR control registers where not known by the disassembler.
- jsr ([label]) and other ([xx,xx],xx,x) stuff works now. Try the next
source in the debugger:
start:
lea 0,a0
lea test,a1
moveq.l #1,d0
moveq.l #0,d1
jsr ([test])
jsr ([test,a0])
jsr ([test,pc])
jsr ([test,pc],d0*4)
jsr ([test,a0],d0*2,2)
jsr ([4,a1],d0*2)
jsr ([(test).w,pc,d0])
;ofcoz also other instructions like
move.w ([12,a1],d0*2),d1 ;-> d1=$00005678
;etc
rts
test:
dc.l go_on
dc.l go_on2
dc.l go_on3
dc.l value
go_on: nop
go_on2: nop
go_on3: rts
value: dc.l $12345678
- Changed the custom scroll routine and now only works with a screen width of
640 pixels (well it did only work with 640 screens but now a requester will appear
telling you so and I removed some obsolete code)..
- Screen size (width and height) is back in the screenmode requester.
- If the include path + filename does not fit on the screen only the last part
of the string will be shown so you can always see the filename.
(also applies to incbin,inciff etc.)
Like this:
Include : "ASSEMBLER:ASMPRO/INCLUDE/dos/dos.i " = 8977 (=$00002311 )
Include : "MBLER:ASMPRO/INCLUDE/libraries/dosextens.i" = 351 (=$0000015F )
Include : "ASSEMBLER:ASMPRO/INCLUDE/dos/dosextens.i " = 15091 (=$00003AF3 )
=================== Asm-Pro V1.12 (07-06-1998) ========================
[Public release]
- RB <file> could crash your system when no BEG or END was given.
- R <filename> works again.
- The floating point calculator ('[') displays the results correct again.
- cmp2 (dis)assemble correct now.
- Added Custom (cpu) scroll routine to speed up scrolling in the editor.
Check Env Prefs "Custom Scrollr." to use it.
- Added different date formats to %getdate also one for $VER (dd.mm.yy)..
- Fixed strange memory slider value from startup window in absolute mode
only noticeable if you had more than 32mb ram.
=================== Asm-Pro V1.11 (19-04-1998) ========================
[Public release]
- Fixed Processor warn and all errors switch. They should work propperly now.
Processor warn switch was never checked..
- Fixed the click on debug window crash system bug..
- Fixed some small things.
- Fixed scrolling the wrong way when clicking in the source and dragging
the mouse over the menu strip.
