marcokitt2000 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Hello Eric and Peter, How is with the dis6502? is there a beta build? I had from last year from Peter a beta build. I hope there are many change please give a status. Many years back in 1989-1992, from a friend a disassembler on the Atari not from Wosfilm i don't no if it was basic or machine language. But what i did was ghost buster the file version after that i used mac65 en i assembled. But when start the ghost buster logo horrible. I can't find it any more maybe someone here knows the name. Greetings Marco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter, I have a mail from you out.zip when i unzip and start dis6502 it will not work any more maybe windows update or else. Program can't start MSVCP120D.dll is missing on my computer. But they are in win32 and syswow64 (windows 7 64bit). or can you send me the file again. Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

playermissile Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 (edited) If you're looking for more of a reverse engineering tool than something that takes object code and turns it into source code, I've got a program called Omnivore that's cross-platform (win, mac, linux) and does disassembly. It also includes a mini-assembler and bitmap viewer. You can download it here https://github.com/robmcmullen/omnivore/releases and there's another thread here on AA discussing it: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/248581-omnivore-the-atari-8-bit-binary-editor/ The attached screenshot shows the mini-assembler in action: typing in a new instruction at 0x088a.

576XE Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Hi there friends! The dis6502 was a good old friend for ages... And the reburth of it means a new era of understanding this world. Best wishes from Bears, Vodka, Sapogi etc! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebiguy Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Thank you for your interest. I can not speak for JAC! but right now, I am at 100% on the CHIP (Archiver) firmware and I would like to finish what I have started on this subject before coming back to DIS6502. There are 2 features which need to be implemented before releasing a version. - Disassembling a SDX binary file does not work well in some cases. - Load/Save workspace feature has been broken with the support of SDX binaries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcokitt2000 Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Hello Eric, Thank you for the answer, i will wait when you are done with 1050 archiver chip. What are you doing with the 1050 super archiver? Greetings Marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebiguy Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 (edited) What are you doing with the 1050 super archiver? Well, I wanted to understand the hardware and firmware of a drive so I started on the 810. In another AA thread, I put the 810 firmware disassembly (probably revision A) and now I try to look at the revision E. I am looking at the CHIP 810 because I got one (good reason) and because there is the ability to download code to the drive so this is very handy to try some controller commands or try to do things not possible with the official Archiver/Editor 1.0 program. And there exist almost no programming guide on the CHIP. The software/hardware of the drive is a whole world, not as complex as the Atari computer but it is very exciting. And also challenging on the 810 as there are only 256 bytes of RAM. I won't release any software. This is just for my understanding and to have fun with a great piece of history. The 810 looks like a prehistoric thing which makes it attractive as vintage stuff becomes fashion. Edited July 10, 2016 by ebiguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JAC! Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Hi Eric, great to see you're still around and active. I still struggle to get my work life balance right again. In just 3 weeks my summer vacation starts, and the thought that the last time I really had time for coding was during the previous summer vacation implies .... well, there are just not enough summers per year :-) Regards, Peter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcokitt2000 Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Hello Eric and Peter, Take your time and have a nice summer holydays. For me in 2 weeks in Germany. Greetings Marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JAC! Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Good progress after the first days of vacation. Currently refactoring all the configuration settings to have separated data/logic/dialog classes. That's a precondition to implement the new XML serialization of the profiles and in the next step the workspace. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+JAC! Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Sign of life: The fight against complexity of the original monolithic plain C continues. I've made very good progress in the past weeks. The content of the original 24 source files are now structured into 152 source files of much smaller size, with clear C++ interfaces and less dependencies and global variables. In fact almost no global variables are left now. The average number of lines in a file has been reduced to 20%, the characters per file even to 15%. The originally largest file "main.c" is down from 4000 to 800 lines. "label.c" has been subject to refactoring this week. So mainly the "dis.c", "dump.c" are left, i.e. the logic behind the dump window and the disassembly window. Both are going to be tough (they are a huuuuge mix of UI and logic), but the rest around it meanwhile is so structured, that I'm confident. I also found the reason why dump selection often didn't work and the dump window crashed in my version. The original code has the assumption that the dump windows displays exactly 8 bytes per line hard-coded dozens of places which I hadn't seen before. I still have to see how to centralize this correctly. So maybe I'll restrict the dump window to 8 for a start again until the rest works.

playermissile Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 For you cross-platform folks, I'll have a new release of Omnivore in the next few weeks that has a vastly improved disassembler. The disassembler part is now written in C so there's no waiting any more for sections to be disassembled. It also supports user-defined labels and will also automatically generate labels from any branch instructions or data load/store locations. It exports assembly source for multiple assemblers, defaulting to ATasm but will also at least support MADS and the cc65 assembler. And most people reading this won't benefit much, but it can disassemble 65c02, 65816, 6800, 6809, 6811, Z80, 8051 and 8080 code. And, just for the record, multi-byte opcodes suck to decode. Especially on the effing Z80. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JAC! Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I had a productive time during my summer vacation and some at the Fujiama meeting two weeks ago. The new version is very beta but I need to get the build chain and packaging with the 32 / 64 -bit DLLs working and tested. This is important, because I am using a 64 bit machine for development, but the result should also run on Windows XP in 32 bit. http://www.wudsn.com/productions/windows/dis6502/dis6502.zip This beta is only for testing and should not be used productively. Only use it on copies of your existing workspaces, otherwise they may become corrupted! The archive contains a x86 (32 bit) and x64 (64 bit) version. The dis6502.exe and related own DDLs are all 32 bit, only the runtime DLLs are different. The known issues are in the "dis6502.txt" file, please check there if your issue is already listed, before reporting it. I'm looking forward to your feedback. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JAC! Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Loading old workspaces should work now. Fixed Bugs:- 2017-09-03 When pressing cancel in "View Profile" dialog the atari800.equ are still reloaded- 2017-09-03 Default paths in the INI file are reset upon opening the program/dialog- 2017-09-03 Default paths in the INI are not updated- 2017-09-03 Loading old workspace version results in garbage in the segments list Implemented Feature Requests:- 2017-09-03 Default paths and last used profile are now stored per computer system type in the "dis6502.ini" file On Win XP, the DLLs provided with the download will not be sufficient as I learned today. You'll need the Visual C++ Runtime Redistributable package.If somebody has an XP machine to play around with (and to reset to the initial state, maybe a VM?), can PM me the details. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stephen Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I'll give this a test sometime this week. Great timing, as I am attempting my first full reverse engineering of some old code. Terrible code for a 1st attempt - full of self modifying code, table driven, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcokitt2000 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 (edited) Hello Peter,I will test the beta soon when i have spare time. But thnxx for all the time and programming.Gr.

Kyle22 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I'll try it on XP32 when I get home. Any computer that was loaded using my XP disc should already contain the required runtime package(s) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle22 Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 As I suspected, all I had to do was double click. There were no error messages about missing dll;s or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
