Where can i get any 6502 compiler or binary files? I want to test my emulator and don't want to wirite my own compiler for that purpouse...

Go to http://www.6502.org.

Click on "Development Tools".

Click on "Compilers and Languages".

Toshi

yea, right, but i just cannot get any working on my win7

Please just give me any compiler working on win7. I can't find any.

Can you use a virtual XP under 7? Use under that environment...

anyway, wich one will work? I see majority of 6502 compillers were written for DOS

The Kowalski simulator works on Windows 7 Enterprise at my office. It has a built in assembler, if that is what you mean by compiler.

It can be downloaded from here:
http://exifpro.com/utils.html

SCRATCH THAT - The Save Code button caused the program to abort. It will assemble it but it does not allow you to save the object code.

TASS (a 6502/65c02 assembler) is a DOS program but does run under Windows 7 Enterprise. It supports macros which allows you to add 65816 support as well.

Tass can be downloaded from my website:
http://sbc.rictor.org/download/6502tass.zip

Please note, I made it available on my site but I am not the author. Please respect the author's notices.

Edit - Fixed misspelled name. Sorry about that!

Roger that. Same problem occurs on Windows 7 professional (32 bit). I don't see any obvious workaround. Without this feature you won't be able to burn EPROMs.

Try setting the properties of the executable to "Run as Administrator"?

Tell Michal, he's always been good about fixing things in the past.

Lee.

I'm always the administrator on any Windows machine I control, so Windows isn't preventing the simulator executable from writing on the filesystem.

when i tried compiling with that i got txt file with opcodes... not stright binary file but numbers visible for man. Or maybe i was compiling it wrong way?

I'm not familiar with the Kowalski simulator or its built-in assembler, but the usual output of assemblers is a hex file, whether Intel Hex, Motorola S19 format, or something like that, which are text files with things at the beginning of each line telling what kind of line it is, the beginning address, and having a checksum at the end, etc..

There is an option to create a list file output, that is in text.

For the object code:
After you load your source and press F7 (Assemble) or click the Assemble icon, you go to File - Save Code

That opens a dialog box. The default type is Intel Hex. If you change the type to Binary Image, you will get a pure object code file. You have to use the "Options" button to set the start and end address to save.

However, when I tested this at work on Windows 7, it crashed the program. If it crashes on your platform, try TASS (link in an earlier post).

thanks for answers. I will try TASS when i have a bit more time. (Maybe tomorrow). My 6502 emulator is almost done, and now i have much work connected with documenting it.
