Ok, I wasn't aware of this. I can only recomend using the java version then. I might tweak the compiler to produce faster code, but my hopes are not high (Perhaps they forgot to buffer the input in the load library) |

Copied from "What assembler/compiler are you using?"
Quoting SlammerWhats your favorite feature of the assembler you are using? What feature really helps you? (...)
The main reason why I switched from 64TASS to KickAss is because of the List() directive, math functions like sin() so I don't need a sinus generator anymore.
Namespacing and scoping look useful too, but have had no need for them yet.
What I like less about KickAss compared to 64TASS is the import of binaries. In 64TASS it's a matter of .binary "file",offset,length and it's in the memory.
No need to do .fill stuff and such. |

Mace: Have you tried
.import binary Music.bin or
.import c64 "prog.c64"
I'll se if I can add an optional offset and length parameter in a later version. (until then you can always write a macro (.macro importFile(filename,offset, length) {..})
Btw. The favorite feature question is intended for all assemblers. |

Of course I tried .import, but it's not the same since it fetches the entire file and not just a part of it.
What I use the offset and length for is for importing parts of externally created data, like graphics. |

Slammer, I am getting a weird error after first pass:
Memory Map
----------
WARNING! No data in memory!
What's that about? I've searched the manual but no info there.
Thanks!

You have assembled a program that contains no bytes. Eg. if you assemble
.for(var i=0; i<10; i++)
.print "i="+i
you will get the 'WARNING! No data in memory!'. The first two lines is the memory map which is empty. |

I am getting a problem when I use //, the compiler can't find lables after the use of //
For instance:
lda #$00
sta pintaTileX+1
pintaTileY: lda #$00 // y coord
.
.
.
pintaTileX: lda #$00
Error: Unknown symbol 'pintaTileX'
If I change the first line containing // to:
pintaTileY: lda #$00 /* y coord */
it works

If you use an editor that uses nonstandard codes for lineshift the linecomment won't be terminated.
Try using a different editor and examine the file with an hexeditor. |

I have been using scite for ages and never had problems. I clicked on "convert line end characters" under Options and it worked.
Thank you |
