As far as I can tell, there should be no more regressions, but that's
no guarantee of anything. Assuming no more are found, this should go
out as version 2.0.0. :-D
RMAC has needed a struct for fixups for some time, and now it has one.
All of the credit for pushing (and patching!) in that direction goes to
ggn; blame for the way it's implemented goes to me. There's still room
for improvement; but for now, this should leave us in much better shape.
Now at v1.12.0.
The last commit had gone a bit overboard with the 32 vs 64 bit token
changes; this has been rectified. There's still a ways to go with the
floating point code, but this should be stable for now. Version now at
1.10.1.
The float changes will need some going over to ensure that we don't end
up with what we had when pointers were shoved into the token stream
willy-nilly.
Somehow I put a unicode character in my assembly source and RMAC then
barfed up an internal error #2. Chasing this down, I finally determined
that the debug traces weren't lying to me and the input file had a
problem. However, RMAC wasn't reporting the illegal character correctly
either, so that was fixed (who knew that gcc was silently killing bit 7
of chars now?). I also realized that having five separate functions for
reporting errors (and the cruft of using those crippled things) was just
a wee bit insane, so now we have proper variable argument error and
warning functions (they can be used just like a printf). Enjoy!
ggn deserves most of the credit for this, as my job was going through
and tossing out the stuff that wasn't needed. ;-) There might be some
ELFish things that still need fixing; time, as usual, will tell.
Basically, expr() was looking at the token following the one it was
looking at and bypassing the longer parse path if it found an EOL token
there. Problem is, some tokens have follow on values and so can be
considered compound tokens. In this case, the EOL token codes to 101,
having a constant with a value of 101 will not evaluate correctly in
this case as the CONST token is a compound token.
The short of this is that making assumptions is BAD! Don't do it! It
WILL come around to bite you in the ass eventually, in the form of
subtle bugs that are difficult to chase down. Assume nothing!
There's still lots to do, like refactoring a bunch of stuff that's
still basically wrong, but that's par for the course. There may be
more things that need fixing (like the .rept function, for example).
