This change adds a new "Step Over" button, which is enabled
when a "JSR" (Jump to Subroutine) instruction is encountered
while stepping through execution one instruction at a time.
Pressing "Step Over" will continue running instructions until a
corresponding "RTS" (Return from Subroutine) is encountered.
While stepping over a subroutine, the call stack depth is tracked
in an attempt to halt only when the *correct* RTS is encountered.
In other words, it should skip over other subroutines nested
inside the call you want to step over:
```
JSR A # Step over here...
...
JSR B
...
RTS # Returns from 'B', doesn't halt
...
RTS # Returns from 'A', halts after return
```
Implements feature request #18.
This change introduces a new command line flag, '-b', that cause the
simulator to halt on the `BRK` instruction. By default, however, the
simulator will no longer halt on `BRK`.
As before, this behavior can be toggled in the preferences at run-time.
- Added more CRTC information to the README file.
- Added unit tests for the CRTC.
- Implemented register read for cursor position in the CRTC.
- Bundling a new version of jterminal that has correct backspace
behavior.
Introduces several changes requested by Mario Keller. The simulator now has a variable step count that can be selected by a drop-down box on the main window. This change also displays ASCII characters in the Memory window.
- Added tooltip text to status panel.
- Memory is no longer cleared on reset.
- Console can now receive key-strokes even while the simulator is
stopped (for single-stepping programs that require interaction)
- Updated screenshots with bug-fixed version.
The simulator now passes Klaus Dormann's 6502 Functional Test suite for
the first time.
Bug Fixes:
- PHP was not correctly setting the Break bit on the stack copy of the
processor status, so subsequent PLA's would not set the Break status
flag.
- The CPU had swapped NMI and IRQ reset vectors, so RTI was failing.
- BRK was pushing PC + 2 onto the stack, instead of PC + 1
- (Zero Page,X) addressing mode did not correctly wrap on zero page
boundaries.
- The instruction table used for disassembly had addressing modes
of LDA $B9 and $BD reversed. This did not affect behavior, only
disassembly of these instructions.
Other:
- Updated copyright date for 2013.
- Started migrating old JUnit 3 style tests to JUnit 4 annotations.
