Hi.
In my project I have several files in C & assembler language .
I'm using a banked memory model and in an assembler file I wrote my assembler font tables.
Initially I din't have any problem because the fonts were in the fixed flash page.
But now (code increased) they are in the 31 page.
I need to get the right font pointer with this assembler funtion:
GetFontPtr:
ldx #Fnt_00 ;ix* = font 0
ldy 1,sp ;iy* = font code to use
cpy #0 ;is font type N° 0 ?
beq GetFontPtr01
ldx #Fnt_01 ;ix* = font 1
GetFontPtr01:
subd #32 ;subd space
lsld ;16 bit entry
leax d,x ;load effective addres from d
ldx 0, x ;low address
ldab PPAGE ;high address (PPAGE)
rtc
I modified the return convention and everything it's ok especially if and only if the GetFontPtr is in the same page of fonts.
But I want to keep my assembler function in page 30 and the font in page 31.
In this condition the instruction ldx 0,x get the right address, because the Fnt_00 and Fnt_01 tables are seen from linker and the address it's ok...but no PPAGE register !
Infact it is 30.The value where is the function and not the fonts.Clearly I don'thave the rigt pointer.
Simple example: if the table font has this address 318000 from ldx 0,x I get 8000 but the ppage reg is 30 not 31 !
I need to know to export the ppage value from my assembler file.
Is it possible in your opinion ? Or I have to write the functions in the same font file ?
I would not to do this.
Thanks a lot
Claudio
