Assembler preferences.
Two questions:
- what's everyone using these days?
- on large productions, do groups tend to enforce a single assembler for the entire project, or is the code base a bit heterogenous?
I'd like to keep this discussion purely focussed on assemblers; please leave code generators, loader toolchains etc for that other thread.
(as for me, I'm still using xa65 for most projects) |

<- Strict ACME fanboy. On projects any assembler is allowed that is able to work within a make-environment. It must accept external information liek labels and one should be able to implement a few simple macros for linking.
A project with acme, dreamass, dasm, c6510, kickass all in a mix, is no problem this way. Kickass however handles the handover of external information a bit different, so no -Dlabel=foo stuff available there, but integration is doable after finding out the differences. |

ACME in general and specifically for a cartridge project I'm using DreamAss. |

KickAssembler for me.
I tend to avoid working in "big" demo projects and prefer to do all the coding myself, so I avoid the problem with different assemblers alltogether... |

Answering only first part of the question since I don't have experience with large projects.
Mostly TMPx + TMP - this gives me opportunity to work on my projects using the (almost the) same syntax even if I code directly on c64. This is handy when using features not emulated right now like Turbo Chameleon64 for example.
DreamAss used to be my number 1 and still is useful for cartridge development due to segments feature (I'm not saying that other assemblers don't provide similar features it's just that this was the first assembler I've tried for it and it had it). DASM due to exomizer usage of it. |
