BP_INIT/SB_INIPR - Vector $110
This vector initialises procedures and functions into the Basic name table and the Basic name list.
Call Parameters | Return Parameters | ||
---|---|---|---|
D3.L | Not used | D3.L | |
A1.L | Pointer to definition list | A1.L | Corrupted. |
A6.L | The usual Basic pointer | A6.L | May be updated |
Errors
No errors are returned by this vector call.
Notes
- All registers not shown above are not used on entry and are preserved on exit.
- The Definition List has the form shown below at defs.
- The number of procedures and the number of functions must be calculated as (the number of items + the total number of bytes in the names + 7)/8 with a minimum of the number of items. The reason for this is that this number is used to add space to both the name list and the name table. Whereas the name table entries are all exactly 8 bytes the additional length needed for the name list is the number of items (the number of bytes containing the length of the following name) plus the total number of bytes in all the additional names.
Definition List
defs dc.w procnum ; Number of procedures (roughly) ; Then for each procedure dc.w proutine-* ; Relative pointer to routine dc.b proclen ; Length of procedure name dc.b procname ; Procedure name ; Followed by: dc.w 0 ; Signals end of procedures dc.w funcnum ; Number of functions (roughly) ; Then for each function dc.w froutine-* ; Relative pointer to routine dc.b funclen ; Length of function name dc.b funcname ; Function name ; Followed by: dc.w 0 ; Signals end of functions
