ASM Help
« on: November 14, 2010, 03:23:12 pm »
I was recently experimenting with some ASM code, and as some of you might be aware, I kind of ****ed up Wabbit. It stopped loading apps altogether and programs weren't running correctly. Reinstalling fixed most of the problems, except that wabbit is now really slow. Anyway, I tried some code, and it didn't appear to work, so I'm wondering if this is just wabbit, or me

Would anyone mind looking over this example code?

Code: [Select]
#include "ti83plus.inc"
.org $9d93
.db 0BBh, 06Dh
     ld hl,0
     ld (CurRow),hl
     ld hl,String
     bcall(_PutS)
     bcall(_getkey)
     ret
String:
.db "Hello World",0

From what I understand, this should display "Hello World" and wait for the user to press a key. The problem is that it's not doing that. It's just running through the program.

Indeed, it should. Are you using a shell to run the program?

No, I'm running it with the Asm( tag from the homescreen.

Would you mind trying the compiled file?

Thanks :)

You don't have to use your physical calculator though. I wouldn't want my code to break something.

The file disassembles to
Code: [Select]
ld hl,0
ld ($0000),hl
ld hl,string
ret
string:
.db "Hello World",0O_o
Edit: I sent it to my physical calc because I have Calcsys there ;)

That's really odd.

I've checked the Batch file and the source I posted is the entire example code. I can't seem to find any reason for it to ignore the bcalls.

EDIT: Bcalls are included in the 83plus.inc file, right?

They indeed are :)
What are you using to assemble it? What does it say?

I'm using SPASM. It hasn't given me any feedback thus far.

That's strange. What's especially disconcerting is that it changed curRow to a 0 and eliminated both bcall's entirely.
Could you try replacing each bcall(xxxx) with "rst 28h \ .dw xxxx", where xxxx is the name of the routine bcalled?
If you could disassemble it yourself, that would be helpful too :)

Replacing the commands throws the calculator into an infinite loop.  :(

By the way, the disassembled program is this:

Code: [Select]
LD B, 21
LD BC, 9D00
or L
NOP
NOP
DEC B
Inc HL
LD BC, 9D00
...
I know that can't be the proper code, but that's what location the VAT lists the program at. Before that location are a few dozen NOPs and after it the code repeats.

It's also ignoring the CurCol load...

Does Spasm give you any errors? Maybe the names weren't defined.

Nope. SPASM executes without returning any errors.
