asm56000 - Motorola DSP56000 Macro Cross Assembler

---

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

files is a list of operating system compatible filenames (including optional pathnames) separated by blanks. If no extension is supplied for a given file, the assembler will automatically append .asm to the filename. If no path is specified for a given file, the assembler will look for that file in the current directory. The list of files will be processed sequentially in the order given and all files will be used to generate the output listing and object file.

OPTIONS

-A

Indicates that the assembler should operate in absolute mode, creating a load (.lod) file if the -B option is given. By default the assembler produces a link (.lnk) file which is subsequently processed by the DSP56000 linker.

-B[<objfil>]

This option specifies that an object file is to be created for assembler output. objfil can be any legal operating system filename, including an optional pathname. Note that there can be no intervening spaces between the -B and the optional filename.

If a path is not specified, the file will be created in the current directory. If no filename is specified, the assembler will use the basename (filename without extension) of the first filename encountered in the source input file list. The resulting output file will have an extension of .lnk unless the -A option is given, in which case the file will have a .lod extension. If the -B option is not specified, then the assembler will not generate an object file. The -B option should be specified only once.

-D<symbol> <string>

This is equivalent to a source statement of the form:

          DEFINE <symbol> <string>

The -D and symbol should not be separated by a blank. string should be enclosed in quotes and preceded by a blank. string must be enclosed in double quotes if it contains any embedded blanks. The -D<symbol> <string> sequence can be repeated as often as desired.

-I<ipath>

When the assembler encounters include files, the current directory (or the directory specified in the INCLUDE directive) is first searched for the file. If it is not found and the -I option is specified, the assembler prefixes the filename (and optional pathname) specified in the INCLUDE directive with ipath and searches the newly formed directory pathname for the file. The -I and ipath should not be separated by a blank. The directories will be searched in the reverse order specified on the command line.

-L[<lstfil>]

This option specifies that a listing file is to be created for assembler output. lstfil can be any legal operating system filename, including an optional pathname. Note that there can be no intervening spaces between the -L and the optional filename.

If a path is not specified, the file will be created in the current directory. If no filename is specified, the assembler will use the basename (filename without extension) of the first filename encountered in the source input file list. The resulting output file will have an extension of .lst. If the -L option is not specified, then the assembler will route listing output to the standard output. The -L option should be specified only once.

-M<mpath>

This is equivalent to a source statement of the form:

          MACLIB <mpath>

The -M and mpath should not be separated by a blank. The directories will be searched in the reverse order specified on the command line.

-O<opt>[,<opt>...]

The -O and opt should not be separated by a blank. opt can be any of the options that are available with the assembler OPT directive. If multiple options are specified, they must be separated by commas. The -O<opt> sequence can be repeated for as many options as desired.
