- 6.2 beta version, so we need to fix it before shipping 6.2.
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
- I'd have few suggestions to the 6.2 (or 6.3 if too late for the 6.2):
-
- 1)
-
- Using assembler (6.1) for program
-
- INCLUDE "exec/ables.i"
-
- INT_ABLES
-
- SECTION code
-
- DISABLE
- DISABLE A1,NOFETCH
- DISABLE A1
-
- END
-
- gives error:
-
- test.s 10 Error: invalid operands for this opcode
- DISABLE A1
-
- while invoking DISABLE with just one argument should be allowed.
-
- 2)
-
- When using options to inline functions I'd like to have note in case
- if function defined __inline is NOT inlined (inlining being normal
- behaviour) with the reason why not (inlining recursion depth exceeded
- etc.).
-
- 3)
-
- The function of __saveds in the function definition is same as having
- geta4() call as first in the function body. It would be nice if
- __saveds were effective only if near data addressing is used OR there
- were a preprocessor symbol that would be defined in near (or far) data
- addressing mode depending the compiler options.
-
- 4)
-
- When debugging a library with cpr the highlighting of breakpoint lines
- got spread (along with the breakpoint number in the beginning of the
- line) to almost every line when scrolling. Sorry I can't be more
- specific on this.
-
- 5)
-
- There is some confusion about the number of underscores before the
- CXBRK(): On-line documentation (sc_lib.guide) has one underscore
- [_CXBRK()], while paper documentation (User's Guide, V1, at index) has
- two underscores and the Library Reference doesn't even mention the
- function.
-
- 6)
-
- On smake documentation (page 279, on the bottom) there is a typo: The
- first line of the table starts with S@ when it should be $@ :-)
