Hi
I have a lot of ASM snippets and I am in the process of trying to recode most of them to C. It is a long and tedious process it seems to make sure they are identical and function identically.
Is there any scripts or tooling that can automate this process to rebuild the structural syntax and I relabel the global and local defines as needed after the process completes?
Did you write the assembler part?
Why did you write in assembler in the first place, if you don't have space or timing requirements to use assembler?
I wrote it in assembly because the design I used was mirrored from a fully functional smart chip semicoductor control system. My buddy gave me the schematics of the design and the rom files. He wrote the handlers and system constructs for the machine and he have me the source code so I could learn the system.
I used that baseline in asm to write my older code. They didn't use C on that design, so I had no reason to write in such. That was in 1992. I've recently pulled this system from the ashes since it has a new goal for a project that someone has asked me to get off the ground. Just trying to make life a bit easier......and I don't think I even knew about Keil back in the day.
Seems like I'm going backwards, but it will pay off in the long run, so hence the push for me to rewrite my functional existing code to something I'm alot more comfortable with.
