|

compiler.

<sect>Overview<p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This file contains an overview of the Plus/4 runtime system as it comes with the
|
||||||
|
cc65 C compiler. It describes the memory layout, Plus/4 specific header files,
|
||||||
|
available drivers, and any pitfalls specific to that platform.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Please note that Plus/4 specific functions are just mentioned here, they are
|
||||||
|
described in detail in the separate <htmlurl url="funcref.html" name="function
|
||||||
|
reference">. Even functions marked as "platform dependent" may be available on
|
||||||
|
more than one platform. Please see the function reference for more
|
||||||
|
information.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Since the Plus/4 and the Commodore 16/116 are almost identical (the latter are
|
||||||
|
missing the 6551 ACIA and do only have 16KB of memory), the <htmlurl
|
||||||
|
url="c16.html" name="C16 documentation"> is also worth a look. The difference
|
||||||
|
between both targets is that the Plus/4 runtime uses banking to support full
|
||||||
|
64K RAM, while the C16 does not use banking and supports up to 32K RAM.
|
||||||
|
Because banking is not needed, most C16 programs will be somewhat smaller than
|
||||||
|
the same program compiled for the Plus/4. However, programs compiled for the
|
||||||
|
C16 will always run on the Plus/4, while the reverse is not necessarily true.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<sect>Binary format<p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The standard binary output format generated by the linker for the Plus/4
|
||||||
|
target is a machine language program with a one line BASIC stub. This means
|
||||||
|
that a program can be loaded as BASIC program and started with RUN. It is of
|
||||||
|
course possible to change this behaviour by using a modified startup file and
|
||||||
|
linker config.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<sect>Memory layout<p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
cc65 generated programs with the default setup run with the kernal and basic
|
||||||
|
banked out. This gives a usable memory range of $1000 - $FD00.
|
||||||
|
Having the kernal and basic ROMs banked out means, that no ROM entry points
|
||||||
|
may be called directly from user code.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Special locations:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<descrip>
|
||||||
|
<tag/Text screen/
|
||||||
|
The text screen is located at $C00 (as in the standard setup).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<tag/Color RAM/
|
||||||
|
The color RAM is located at $800 (standard location).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<tag/Stack/
|
||||||
|
The C runtime stack is located at $FCFF and growing downwards.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<tag/Heap/
|
||||||
|
The C heap is located at the end of the program and grows towards the C
|
||||||
|
runtime stack.

||||||

|

|
|

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<sect>Platform specific header files<p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Programs containing Plus/4 specific code may use the <tt/plus4.h/ or <tt/cbm.h/
|
||||||
|
header files. Using the later may be an option when writing code for more than
|
||||||
|
one CBM platform, since it includes <tt/plus4.h/ and declares several functions
|
||||||
|
common to all CBM platforms.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Please note that most of the header file declarations from the <tt/plus4.h/
|
||||||
|
header file are shared between the C16 and Plus/4 configurations. For this
|
||||||
|
reason, most of it is located in a common header file named <tt/cbm264.h/.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<sect1>Plus/4 specific functions<p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
There are currently no special Plus/4 functions.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<sect1>CBM specific functions<p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Some functions are available for all (or at least most) of the Commodore
|
||||||
|
machines. See the <htmlurl url="funcref.html" name="function reference"> for
|
||||||
|
declaration and usage.

<sect1>Hardware access<p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The following pseudo variables declared in the <tt/plus4.h/ header file do
|
||||||
|
allow access to hardware located in the address space. Some variables are
|
||||||
|
structures, accessing the struct fields will access the chip registers.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<descrip>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<tag><tt/TED/</tag>
|
||||||
|
The <tt/TED/ structure allows access to the TED chip. See the
|
||||||
|
<tt/_ted.h/ header file located in the include directory for the
|
||||||
|
declaration of the structure.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<tag><tt/COLOR_RAM/</tag>
|
||||||
|
A character array that mirrors the color RAM of the C64 at $D800.

Driver for the 6551 ACIA chip built into the Plus/4 Supports up to 19200
|
||||||
|
baud, hardware flow control (RTS/CTS) and interrupt driven receives. Note
|
||||||
|
that because of the peculiarities of the 6551 chip transmits are not
|
||||||
|
interrupt driven, and the transceiver blocks if the receiver asserts flow
|
||||||
|
control because of a full buffer.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note that you need an adapter to use the builtin port, since the output
|
||||||
|
levels available at the user port don't follow the RS232 standard.

<sect>Other hints<p>

|
<sect1>Passing arguments to the program<p>
|
||||||
|
|

Command line argument passing is currently not supported for the Plus/4.

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<sect1>Interrupts<p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The runtime for the Plus/4 uses routines marked as <tt/.CONDES/ type 2 for
|
||||||
|
interrupt handlers. Such routines must be written as simple machine language
|
||||||
|
subroutines and will be called automatically by the interrupt handler code
|
||||||
|
when they are linked into a program. See the discussion of the <tt/.CONDES/
|
||||||
|
feature in the <htmlurl url="ca65.html" name="assembler manual">.
