Question about DASM segments.

[Robert M]

Hi,

 

I am trying to make use of segments in the Gravity Ball code, but I am not sure if I am using them correctly. The first time I declare a new segment, should I put the ORG pseudo-op before or after the SEG pseudo-op? Like this:

 

ORG $0080

SEG.U RAM

 

ORG $F000

SEG CODE

 

Or, like this:

 

SEG.U RAM

ORG $0080

 

SEG CODE

ORG $F000

 

Thanks,

[Andrew Davie]

Typically you'd place your segment marker first, then one or more ORG's inside the segment. The segment contains blocks of code/data, each ORG'd to some location, not the other way around.

Cheers

Thanks for clearing that up Andrew.
