heap functions
|
|
|
|
The heap is an area of memory that is written from the bottom up. These
|
|
are a few convenience functions to do that writing.
|
|
|
|
There is a global short called "heap" that must be written to before using
|
|
these functions, otherwise the zero page and program memory could be
|
|
overwritten.
|
|
|
|
A simple program could use all unallocated memory for the heap like so:
|
|
|
|
|0100 @reset
|
|
;my-heap ;heap STA2
|
|
|
|
(the rest of your code)
|
|
|
|
@my-heap
|
|
|
|
Note that if there is a risk that the heap may overflow its bounds, it is
|
|
strongly recommended to check where it is writing to. ";heap LDA2" will
|
|
tell you where the next byte is written.
