Is anybody using !Cross32 ?

In 1991, I bought a copy of !Cross32 from Baildon Electronics. This is a RISC OS version of an existing well-established cross-assembler from another platform. It was originally a command-line program but Dave Prossor wrote a desktop front end allowing an assembler source file to be dragged to the icon bar icon and then the object and listing files would be created in the same directory. |

Try running the cross-assembler program with no input/parameters, or something like -h as the parameter. Maybe there will be an option in there that might help? |

If you can’t find a way to trigger built-in functionality, it can probably be forced on the program through the use of a devious code variable. |

Is the front end compiled or is it written in BASIC? If the latter, one of us might be able to help you; but trying to decompile an app is very difficult. If you’re repeatedly assembling the same file, you might well be able to invoke the assembler from an Obey or TaskObey file with the command line that you need. |

Baildon Electronics was Dave Hitchens and Dave Prosser IIRC. Dave Hitchens is still active in the Stardot forums, maybe try to ask there? |

Perhaps this stardot thread is the place to ask. :-) |

Textile beat your attempt, but hovering over the link gives you something you can work with to give a working link |

With thanks to everyone who has responded so far. What is so frustrating is that the syntax must have been available to me before so why cannot I find it now? |

That’s much too low a number to be a extension module, since it’s in the Operating System SWI range but they’ve only got as high as &280. It could be self modifying code failing, if your Risc PC is a StrongARM. Try *Cache offand then run it, or put in an ARM6 or 7. |
