Small IRA Tutorial

[kamelito]

The Vampire V4 support Emutos so I guess one could write an Atari app that hit the Amiga hardware is that also disabled?

[phx]

Yes. When IRA detects an Atari executable it will disable Amiga hardware symbols.

Theoretically I could make that an option, but who would ever seriously write Atari software, which only runs under EmuTOS on Amiga hardware?

[jotd]

IRA often detects wrongly Atari executables, ... then deletes the binary file probably because noone should use Atari.

[phx]

Fixed long ago. The -binary option always has priority now.

I'll grab your changes when I get some time and check you haven't broken Amiga

I may consider a quick look into Atari support for Aira if it would be of use to anyone in the community. I know nothing about the platform though, other than 68000 + AY chip + something called TOS!

I can only see a single "P" in the first three CODE boxes unfortunately. Browsing in Windows 10 Chrome.

It shouldn't be too much work. Call vasm with

-Ftos

instead of

-Fhunkexe

to generate the output. Autodetection of OS functions should be even easier, as you have a definite

trap

vector for BIOS, XBIOS and GEMDOS calls. The top word on the stack is the function code.

The single character was intended, because otherwise the code-block, which I used to separate paragraphs, would disappear.

It's a Firefox problem with Preview Post.

@Hop, Atari support would be great.

@PHX it looks like that IRA does not support disassembly of *.library (I suppose then that its the same for devices) I tried directly into Airforce not the command line is that right? if yes why not?
