Error message in compilig.

[moducity]

During complitation of a file in FSSC I get the message :
Error in macro file line xxxx - destination ":" is out or range, source line 33.
My questions are :
a. meaning of error;
b. where I can read the line 33

Hi Filippo,

In general this means that the API macro you are using has a jump that is bigger than the size that Jump command can bridge. So the best thing you can do is open the API macro and look for line 33 in the file.

If there is a Jump command on that line, you could try to replace it with a Jump32 command (that command can bridge a greater distance). If that is not the case you might have to do some more tweaking, but that is hard for me to tell without seeing the total source.

Hi Arno and tks 4 yr attention.
Often I got the message :

Error in macro file D:\FSSCEN~1\Macros\SN3329~1.API line 2089
-> EndA
-> destination ":" out of range (34232), source line 33
Scasm compilation status: error(s) 1
-----------------------------------
So, I'm not able to find the file SN3329....API (anywhere in the HD) and of course the line 2089; where I can modify the Jump command as suggested by U ?

I think, that's not the problem, but:

Every file which will compiled by SCASM has a buffer size; try to change it to a greater value, like 32000 instead of 16000 and so on...

Hi, and wellcome to my "Via crucis" with FSSC.
Pls explain step by step in wich way I have to change the parameter, in wich file and by what program.

I'm not sure if you mean Schiratti Control Center with FSSC...

But THERE you have the parameter "Buffer size" (or something like that) in the "Design Properties... or Preferences?".

Size value is usually equal to a 2^x value (2, 4, 8, 16, 32...), I believe it is usually 16000. So just test it with 32000, 64000 and so on... there is anywhere a logical end, but I don't know for which value.

If you mean another tool with "FSSC", then I don't know where, but then you should find anywhere a "buffer size" property...

FSSC by Derek Young (continue for problems)

In this scenery creator I didn't find any menu to set the Buffer size parameter. Scenery properties is available but not that parameter.
Scams has been loaded as a part of FSSC, so may be that my version of it (SCAMS) is uncomplete.

Is FSSC = Schiratti Control Center ?

(If NOT, I don't know the program.)

(If NOT, I don't know the program.)

------------------------------------------------------------------------
As I said the FSSC in my hands is created by Derek Young.
I will invetigate abt the Schiratti version.
Thank you 4 yr attention.
All the best, Filippo (LIBD)

Hi Filippo,

I think it is not a setting in FSSC that causes this problem. It is something in your API, so you do not have to change anything in FSSC.

Can you attach the API macro to your next post? Then someone will probably be able to indicate the tweaks needed.

PS. If you can't find the file, that is because the SN3329~1.API name is the short 8 character version of your API macro.

That's not correct! Of course, if he will make the API smaller, then it will work, but he can also change the Buffer-Size parameter to make the compilation possible... but I don't know how to do this with FSSC...

 

[arno]

Ys, but that buffer can also be set in the API itself. It is not something that has to be set in the FSSC SCA file. FSSC never knows the size needed for the API, so it should be set in the API itself, so it can be used anywhere without trouble.

But this error does not look like a buffer size problem. The problem is that is jump is made over a piece of code that is bigger than 32 kB and that is not possible. So it will probably require a big restructuring of the jumps.

 

[mcq]

I know it from SCC, that you can adjust the buffer size for the whole scm-file...

But that's with the 32K-Jump is also an interesting aspect...
