It still gets written to the object file, generating Valgrind warnings about using uninitialized memory. To silence those errors, and make output more reproducible, init the line no to a dummy (0) value.
RGBDS ===== RGBDS (Rednex Game Boy Development System) is a free assembler/linker package for the Game Boy and Game Boy Color. It consists of: - rgbasm (assembler) - rgblink (linker) - rgbfix (checksum/header fixer) - rgbgfx (PNG‐to‐Game Boy graphics converter) This is a fork of the original RGBDS which aims to make the programs more like other UNIX tools. This toolchain is maintained on `GitHub <https://github.com/rednex/rgbds>`__. The documentation of this toolchain can be viewed online `here <https://rgbds.gbdev.io/docs/>`__, it is generated from the man pages found in this repository. 1. Installing RGBDS ------------------- The `installation procedure <https://rgbds.gbdev.io/install>`__ is available online for various platforms. `Building from source <https://rgbds.gbdev.io/install/source>`__ is possible using ``make`` or ``cmake``; follow the link for more detailed instructions. .. code:: sh make sudo make install .. code:: sh cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release cmake --build build cmake --install build 2. RGBDS Folder Organization ---------------------------- The RGBDS source code file structure somewhat resembles the following: :: . ├── .github/ │ ├── actions/ │ │ └── ... │ └── workflows/ │ └── ... ├── contrib/ │ ├── zsh_compl/ │ │ └── ... │ └── ... ├── include/ │ └── ... ├── src/ │ ├── asm/ │ │ └── ... │ ├── extern/ │ │ └── ... │ ├── fix/ │ │ └── ... │ ├── gfx/ │ │ └── ... │ ├── link/ │ │ └── ... │ ├── CMakeLists.txt │ └── ... ├── test/ │ ├── ... │ └── run-tests.sh ├── CMakeLists.txt ├── Makefile └── README.rst - ``.github/`` - files and scripts related to the integration of the RGBDS codebase with GitHub. - ``contrib/`` - scripts and other resources which may be useful to users and developers of RGBDS. * ``zsh_compl`` contains tab completion scripts for use with zsh. Put them somewhere in your ``fpath``, and they should auto-load. - ``include/`` - header files for each respective C files in `src`. - ``src/`` - source code and manual pages for RGBDS. * Note that the code unique to each RGBDS tool is stored in its respective subdirectory (rgbasm -> ``src/asm/``, for example). ``src/extern/`` contains code imported from external sources. - ``test/`` - testing framework used to verify that changes to the code don't break or modify the behavior of RGBDS. 3. History ---------- - Around 1997, Carsten Sørensen (AKA SurfSmurf) writes ASMotor as a general-purpose assembler/linker system for DOS/Win32 - Around 1999, Justin Lloyd (AKA Otaku no Zoku) adapts ASMotor to read and produce GBZ80 assembly/machine code, and releases this version as RGBDS. - 2009, Vegard Nossum adapts the code to be more UNIX-like and releases this version as rgbds-linux on `GitHub <https://github.com/vegard/rgbds-linux>`__. - 2010, Anthony J. Bentley forks that repository. The fork becomes the reference implementation of rgbds. - 2017, Bentley's repository is moved to a neutral name. - 2018, codebase relicensed under the MIT license. - 2020, repository is moved to the `gbdev <https://github.com/gbdev>`__ organisation. The `rgbds.gbdev.io <https://rgbds.gbdev.io>`__ website serving documentation and downloads is created.
