I’ve run into trouble with b?branch not working as expected by the nVidia Option Rom Fcode.
What Openbios does now for b?branch is:
From fcode.fs: === \ b?branch ( continue? -- ) \ Conditional branch FCode. Followed by FCode-offset.
: b?branch fcode-offset 0< if \ if we jump backwards, we can forsee where it goes ['] do?branch , resolve-dest execute-tmp-comp else setup-tmp-comp ['] do?branch , here 0 0 , then- ; immediate ===
I fond some code from SLOF that may work a little better:
: b?branch ( flag -- ) ?compile-mode IF read-fcode-offset ?negative IF dest-on-top postpone until ELSE postpone if THEN ELSE ( flag ) IF fcode-offset jump-n-ip \ Skip over offset value ELSE read-fcode-offset ?jump-direction jump-n-ip THEN THEN ; immediate
Unfortunately it’s not just a simple copy and paste, I get errors when trying to compile Openbios with this code.
When you have time, could you help me step though it and figure out where it is failing, and how to fix it, I’m just not very good at C and could really use some help from someone that understands what the code is trying to do, and what I need to port over from SLOF to get it to compile.
Thanks, James
