MEGA65-libc

Simple C library for the MEGA65

Using the library

• CC65: Include the .c and .s files from the src/ directory that you need.
• Clang: Either use the provided CMake setup as detailed below, or include the .c and .h files you need.
• KickC: Support will be coming soon (or sooner, if someone would like to port the routines :-)

Development and building

CC65

1. Install CC65 with e.g. brew install cc65 or apt install cc65.
2. Build with

cd mega65-libc
ln -s Makefile_cc65 Makefile # or `make -f Makefile_cc65` below
export USE_LOCAL_CC65=1
make
make test                    # if `xmega65` (Xemu) is in your path

Clang

1. Install llvm-mos-sdk. This e.g. downloads for linux and unpacks into $HOME/llvm-mos:

wget https://github.com/llvm-mos/llvm-mos-sdk/releases/latest/download/llvm-mos-linux.tar.xz 
tar xf llvm-mos-linux.tar.xz -C $HOME

2. Configure and make with:

cd mega65-libc
cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$HOME/llvm-mos -B build
make
make test # if `xmega65` (Xemu) was in your path when running cmake

Dependent projects

It's trivial to write a classic Makefile for clang using CC=mos-mega65-clang. For dependent CMake based projects, CMakeLists.txt could look like this:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)
set(LLVM_MOS_PLATFORM mega65)
find_package(llvm-mos-sdk REQUIRED)
project(myproject LANGUAGES C)
find_package(mega65libc REQUIRED)
add_compile_options(-Os -Wall -Wextra -Wconversion)
add_executable(main main.c)
target_link_libraries(main mega65libc::mega65libc)
set_target_properties(main PROPERTIES OUTPUT_NAME main.prg)

See more here.

CPM.cmake dependency manager

If using CPM.cmake, mega65libc can be easily added and automatically downloaded to your project with:

CPMAddPackage(NAME mega65libc GITHUB_REPOSITORY mega65/mega65-libc GIT_TAG master)
target_link_libraries(<mytarget> mega65libc)

API Documentation

Building the docs requires doxygen; install with e.g. apt install doxygen or brew install doxygen.

make doc # outputs to html, latex, xml in doc/

For use with the MEGA65 User Guide, the XML output can be converted to custom LaTeX:

pip install xmltodict
make guide # outputs to doc/api-*.tex

Contributing

Contributions are most welcome; please make a pull-request on github. To help with formatting, a .clang-format file is provide. It's highly recommended to install our pre-commit hooks which will format/lint upon git commit:

pip install pre-commit
cd mega65-libc/
pre-commit install

Function descriptions

FAT32 File Access

void closeall(void);
unsigned char open(char *filename);
void close(unsigned char fd);
unsigned short read512(unsigned char fd,unsigned char *buffer);

To use these functions you must include fileio.h

FAT32 Directory Access

Functions similar to the POSIX equivalents are provided. Key differences are that unsigned char * is used instead of DIR * for the directory handle, and readdir() returns a pointer to a m65_dirent struct, instead of direntstruct.

As file handle support is still partial in the hypervisor, only one directory or file can be safely open at any point in time, and it is wise to call closeall() before opening any file or directory.

opendir() currently takes no path as input, as the Hypervisor can only work on a single directory at the moment. Support for sub-directories will come in the fullness of time.

unsigned char *opendir(void);
m65_dirent *readdir(unsigned char *dir_handle);
void closedir(unsigned char *dir_handle);

To use these functions you must include dirent.h

Clock Access

getrtc(struct m65_tm *) and setrtc(struct struct m65_tm *) allow retrieval and setting of the real-time-clock (RTC) using structures broadly similar to the posix tm structure. These routines abstract the different model RTCs that exist on different MEGA65 hardware targets.

To use these functions you must include time.h

Full Colour Mode I/O

The fcio portion of the mega65-libc takes care of displaying text and images in full colour & super-extended character modes. It has its own tutorial, located here.

Text Console I/O

The conio.h file is projected to support all MEGA65 text features in the future.

Keep in mind!

1. Use conioinit() to initialize internal state.
2. no bounds checking is done in any function due to lazyness and/or performance reasons. Be careful.

    Escape strings can be used to modify attributes, move cursor,etc,
    similar to PRINT in CBM BASIC. Available escape codes:
   
    Cursor positioning 

    \t           Go to next tab position (multiple of 8s)
    \r           Return
    \n           New-line (assume \r like in C printf)
