CPU history (HH) not working?

Hi,

I have tried to enable it, but winuae (latest beta) always gives me the last instruction, no history.
Too bad as this could be a very powerful feature.

Works for me. Did you enable at least one normal breakpoint (f)? JIT must be also off.

Yes it works when you enable a breakpoint. Thanks.

Hi again,

Works fine and I could find a nasty bug in some game I was debugging thanks to it.

Now, I'm investigating a problem with Black Tiger WHDLoad slave. For some reason, A6 becomes corrupt and takes value $4A790000. I tried H and I was very surprised not to find why

Code:

-1 57FDD6D6 4ef8 0004                JMP $00000004

-1 00000004 57fc                     TRAPEQ  == $00000000 (T)

at 57FDD6CA we see that A6 is properly set. Yet, at 57FDD6CE A6 is corrupt
(also happened on a real Amiga BTW)

Do you have any explanation?
I have a workaround that works: if A6 is $4Asomething, I just reset it to the proper static value and retry: fixed the problem but that's dirty.

Is that really supposed to be valid instruction? (second word has high byte set but it is only byte wide instruction)

But 57FDD6CA will modify A6. (from b6e8). Or what did I miss? :)

From or To value? Strange fact is: if I re-set the correct A6 value and retry, it works eventually, thus avoiding the bug.

Forget that crap. I fixed some other strange SMC fix code and the problem disappear. Mysterious global problem, but not worth spending too much time, specially on average/poor US Gold port of this cool game.
