For({Pic99+3},0,{Pic99+2}
Can anyone help please?I have this line of code:Code: [Select]For({Pic99+3},0,{Pic99+2}This line compiles fine, but if I add an "End" later then the compiler gives me a "Block" error. I was able to use Pic99 before this part, and it is 4 bytes long

The OS *will* accept it into FlashROM[20:41:07] <@calc84> asm programs have this size problem too[20:41:08] <@Netham45> Iambian, what happened when you unarchived it?[20:41:16] <+Iambian> The OS *will* give the memory error.[20:41:21] <+Iambian> If you try to unarchive it.[20:41:22] <@DJ_Omni> maybe in the future, if axe produces a much larger than allowed program, it could simply split the data in another file?[20:41:23] <@calc84> but it doesn't really happen for most games/programs[20:41:32] <+Iambian> Still.[20:41:49] <@DJ_Omni> also about the 8000 byte limit[20:41:52] <+Iambian> Doesn't Axe refuse to generate programs that are above known limits? Isn't that something that every ASM programmer should know?[20:41:58] <@DJ_Omni> does it means if my axe program compiled code ends up larger[20:42:05] <@DJ_Omni> that my program will not run properly?[20:42:11] <@DJ_Omni> i mean just the code, not the data[20:42:16] <@calc84> if the code section is larger, correct[20:42:20] <+Iambian> DJ_Omni: That truly depends on how Axe assembles that program.[20:42:22] <@DJ_Omni> ouch [20:42:27] <@DJ_Omni> that might pose a problem[20:42:35] <@Netham45> we could all just get 73's and use the hacked 83 OS on them[20:42:37] <@DJ_Omni> maybe an asm expert should ask quigibo if he thought about that[20:42:41] <+Iambian> If data is attached at the end of the program, then it'll be fine as long as the executable portion is below address $C000
