I think you are refering to the repetition commands in the pseudocommand tutorial on codebase64.
You can find it here
(Oswald: No, it's actually not in the manual) |

so it is a macro that must be defined. Ok, that's good, I thought that was a fact of the assembler, and I've read the manual lots of times lol
Now I can remember reading that exact tip from you, in the codebase :D thanks Slammer.

With functions, macros and pseudo-commands you can get KickAssembler to do a lot of fancy stuff. I suggest that everytime you find something you like you copy-paste it into your own library.
Here is a little trick. If you wan't the repetition commands to be an integrated part of KickAssembler you can copy-paste them into the resources/autoinclude.asm file that is placed inside the jar file. (To view the content of a jar just rename it to a zip-file)
Oswald: Yep |

yeah I did that with the .import source "macrolib.asm" directive
It's nice to know the "trick" you said to include it as standard.
very handy :)
haha :D @oswald

Quoting SlammerThere is a new release on the site.
Seems that toIntString() is borked now.
Or is it .text toIntString()?
Because that returns odd results!
So :BasicUpstart() doesn't work either: de number after SYS is all nonsense. |

I downloaded today, just minutes before that post.
[edit]
While you're at it, I've got another question.
I have declared to pseudocommands, GoDebug and DebugRoutine.
// ========================================================
.var DebugOn = 0
.pseudocommand GoDebug {
jsr SUB_Debug
.var DebugOn = 1 }
.pseudocommand DebugRoutine {
// some routine to show debug info
}
/* code here */
:GoDebug
/* more code */
/* at the end of all code */
SUB_Debug
.if (DebugOn == 1) :DebugRoutine
// ========================================================
The idea is that if :GoDebug is called (and not commented out), the :DebugRoutine will be added to the code.
If :GoDebug isn't called, there will be no code following the SUB_Debug label.
This, however, doesn't work, because the if-statement doesn't see DebugOn as 1 even if :GoDebug is called.
What could be a solution for this problem?
How weird... it suddenly works, without changing anything, just by compiling it again?! |

It doesnt work because you declare several DebugOn variables. When you write:
.var x=0 you declare the variable x. If you write
.var x=0
.var x=0 // This gives an error You will get an error for redefining x since you cant have two variables with the same name. In you example you don't get an error because you are redefining the variable inside a scope:
.var x=0
{var x=1} // This declares another x variable inside a scopeSo what you really want to do is to modify you existing variable not declare a new one. This is done with the eval command:
.var x=0
.eval x=1
Edit: Saw you fixed the problem. Still guess you should check the .var command.. |
