Lightweight 8080 compatible core

This is a great project but I meet a compile issue. Run compile.bat under trunk/c, hello.asm show these patterns:

	code
	org #0000
	ld hl,-0). 
	ld sp,hl
	call __main

;sendbyte(by) 
__sendbyte:
;char by;
;{
;	while (USTAT & UTXBUSY);
cc.:
	in a,(/-/)  
	call ccsxt

"ld hl,-0)." and  "in a,(/-/)" will make as80 error. This seems c compiler does not find the correct defination for address. I did not modify anything. Run this at Win7/10. Any clue?

AS80 compiler

I think your ccdiv function in c80_lib is not correct?the example is following?

int tstary[2] = {0xaabb, 0x99aa};

// sends a hexadecimal value to the UART 
printhex(hval)	
int hval;
{	
	char hbyte;
	char lbyte;
	char temp;
	hbyte = hval/256; //use the >>8 is ok
	lbyte = hval%256; //
	
	sendbyte(hbyte);
	sendbyte(lbyte);
	
	temp = (hbyte & 0xf0)>>4;
	if(temp > 9)
		sendbyte('a'+temp-10);
	else
	 	sendbyte('0'+temp);	
	 	
	temp = (hbyte & 0x0f);
	if(temp > 9)
		sendbyte('a'+temp-10);
	else
	 	sendbyte('0'+temp);	
	 	
	temp = (lbyte & 0xf0)>>4;
	if(temp > 9)
		sendbyte('a'+temp-10);
	else
	 	sendbyte('0'+temp);
	
	temp = (lbyte & 0x0f);
	if(temp > 9)
		sendbyte('a'+temp-10);
	else
	 	sendbyte('0'+temp); 		
}


printstr("Hex value: 0x"); printhex(tstary[0]); nl();
printstr("Hex value: 0x"); printhex(tstary[1]); nl();


the result of print as following?

# received byte 0x30 ("0") at              1956000 ns

c80_lib

i think the small c comiler have a bug as follow:

int txbyte = 0x2345; //define a global variable and have a initial value

but the comliler change the c code to asm code as follow:

0481 :                  __txbyte:
0481 : 0045             	db 0,69

but if you use the matrix,the result is right:
int tstary[2] = {0x1234, 0x5678};

the compiler result is :
047d :                  __tstary:
047d : 34127856         	db 52,18,120,86

the small c compiler

hello?I am studying your 8080 cpu code?can you tell me how to software simulate the c/asm code?can you give me some example?thanks!!!!

simulate

hello! your project is very good ! can you also give some interrupt C example to test interrupt!

interrupt

Some instances of INR M worked while others did not. 

Microcode flag #setacy was missing in the microcode source for INR M (line 370 of light8080.m80) and the auxiliary carry flag used in all increments (including PC) was not being set and kept its previous value. It passed the test bench by chance, apparently.

The code in the CVS has the bug fixed.
