Short: Exec look-a-like for embedded systems. Author: wjm@magmacom.com (W. John Malone) Uploader: wjm@magmacom.com (W. John Malone) Version: V3R2 Type: dev/cross Replaces: dev/cross/AmiExec* $Id: ReadMe,v 3.2 1997/02/16 08:56:36 wjm Exp $ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ AmiExec ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ AmiExec is a real-time, multi-tasking microkernel, the core of which is an implementation of exec.library. AmiExec can be used for automation, process control, or other embedded systems based on 68K family CPUs and microcontrollers. Software development for AmiExec can be done on Amigas with Amiga development tools. Cheers! W. John Malone. e-mail: wjm@magmacom.com web page: http://www.magma.ca/~wjm/dynachrome.html ----------------------------- Last Minute Info ------------------------------- rexxdossupport.library is used by some of the ARexx utility scripts. It can be fetched from the util/rexx directory of Aminet. ------------------------------- Release V3R2 --------------------------------- exec.library 3.18 ----------------- Additions: Support for non-zero VBR. Support for pseudo-VBR scheme for 68000 systems with ROM vector tables. Added SetExceptVect procedure for VBR aware vector table manipulation. BootEvent callback. Specified in the BootTable this callback is invoked at the beginning of ROMTag scanning, as ROMTags are found, and as ROMTags are processed. Useful for debugging a system encountering difficulties very early in the boot process, before debug.library becomes available. Changes: BootTable now passed as a parameter to Exec entry point instead of being at known offset from entry point. Increases "re-targetability" of AmiExec. debug.library 3.11 ------------------ Additions: One shot breakpoint command. Trace command. Tag stepping. If specified in the BootTable (TagStep == TRUE) the system is paused at each BootMsg as the resident modules initialize. Hitting CTRL-C enters debug for system inspection, hitting RETURN contines booting with no more pausing, any other key steps to the next BootMsg. cpu.resource ------------ Additions: New documents - cpu.resource.guide, cpu.resource.ag, and cpu.resource.ad. Tools ----- Changed: MemTag - Removed MUI interface. There was a bug, it was the only MUI client in the distribution, and I find it just as easy to simply edit the tool-types anyway. Sysgen.rexx - Command line arguments have changed. Easier support of different ROM monitors on the target system. ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 1233 598 51.5% 16-Feb-97 09:06:56 +.info 436 260 40.3% 29-Oct-93 20:40:10 +SCOPTIONS.nb 2364 917 61.2% 16-Feb-97 09:05:46 +Contents 511 252 50.6% 16-Feb-97 09:32:48 +Contents.info 1233 601 51.2% 16-Feb-97 09:32:48 +Docs.info 17993 5585 68.9% 15-Feb-97 08:15:28 +AmiExec.guide 1835 692 62.2% 16-Feb-97 09:12:14 +AmiExec.guide.info 16194 6477 60.0% 24-Jul-95 16:01:48 +AmiExec.iff 5781 1301 77.4% 26-Jan-97 15:10:54 +cpu.resource.ad 1395 530 62.0% 16-Feb-97 09:12:14 +cpu.resource.ad.info 6355 1458 77.0% 26-Jan-97 15:11:20 +cpu.resource.ag 1835 963 47.5% 16-Feb-97 09:12:14 +cpu.resource.ag.info 6830 2077 69.5% 15-Feb-97 21:55:00 +cpu.resource.guide 1835 696 62.0% 16-Feb-97 09:12:14 +cpu.resource.guide.info 65719 21820 66.7% 07-Feb-97 06:36:44 +exec.library.guide 1835 694 62.1% 16-Feb-97 09:12:14 +exec.library.guide.info 15822 2007 87.3% 12-Aug-95 09:54:46 +ExecDevice.iff 15356 4769 68.9% 15-Feb-97 07:49:50 +Tools.ad 1395 532 61.8% 16-Feb-97 09:12:14 +Tools.ad.info 15690 4903 68.7% 15-Feb-97 07:50:30 +Tools.ag 1871 988 47.1% 16-Feb-97 09:12:14 +Tools.ag.info 751 334 55.5% 18-Dec-94 11:26:58 +cpu_protos.h 605 254 58.0% 18-Dec-94 11:22:22 +debug_protos.h 1090 470 56.8% 18-Dec-94 11:32:52 +serial.h 3455 1078 68.7% 29-Dec-94 09:35:22 +timer.h 1362 417 69.3% 18-Dec-94 11:41:52 +ascii.h 2175 947 56.4% 01-Feb-97 08:16:14 +boottable.h 1815 803 55.7% 01-Feb-97 08:16:16 +boottable.i 3461 1386 59.9% 11-Jan-97 14:05:34 +exec.h 2358 885 62.4% 18-Dec-94 11:43:34 +exec.i 563 272 51.6% 18-Dec-94 12:03:08 +startup.h 640 270 57.8% 18-Dec-94 11:53:16 +version.h 672 289 56.9% 18-Dec-94 11:53:20 +version.i 485 241 50.3% 19-Dec-94 10:10:18 +cpu.fd 367 231 37.0% 19-Dec-94 10:08:22 +debug.fd 3156 1236 60.8% 02-Feb-97 09:50:38 +debug.h 563 243 56.8% 19-Dec-94 12:49:54 +cpu_pragmas.h 519 221 57.4% 19-Dec-94 12:48:00 +debug_pragmas.h 849 420 50.5% 19-Dec-94 13:20:20 +cpu.h 2456 678 72.3% 19-Dec-94 13:20:36 +serial.h 2361 712 69.8% 16-Feb-97 07:57:02 +Install 711 359 49.5% 16-Feb-97 09:32:48 +Install.info 616 364 40.9% 16-Feb-97 07:27:02 +Legal 322 220 31.6% 16-Feb-97 09:32:48 +Legal.info 1140 590 48.2% 19-Dec-94 19:58:00 +aminb.lib 1368 627 54.1% 27-Dec-94 19:48:28 +c_lib.o 1360 631 53.6% 27-Dec-94 19:48:30 +c_task.o 36492 16366 55.1% 01-Jan-97 09:57:12 +extnb.lib 3185 1219 61.7% 27-Dec-94 19:48:16 +c_lib.c 3390 1322 61.0% 27-Dec-94 19:48:18 +c_task.c 11544 5547 51.9% 01-Feb-97 08:28:44 +vmenb.lib 19240 10909 43.3% 03-Feb-97 20:06:48 +debug.library 26188 13626 47.9% 01-Feb-97 15:08:02 +exec.020.library 26068 13595 47.8% 03-Feb-97 20:06:26 +exec.library 10448 5787 44.6% 01-Nov-93 21:38:18 +garbagecollector.library 2438 1152 52.7% 16-Feb-97 08:56:46 +Readme 511 252 50.6% 16-Feb-97 09:32:48 +Readme.info 2491 540 78.3% 19-Dec-94 19:56:10 +DirPart.ext 3310 902 72.7% 02-Nov-96 17:02:34 +Download.dos 4172 1334 68.0% 02-Nov-96 15:37:08 +Download.term 2339 487 79.1% 19-Dec-94 19:56:10 +FilePart.ext 29456 7780 73.5% 03-Nov-96 09:39:44 +Sysgen.rexx 2397 510 78.7% 19-Dec-94 19:56:10 +TackOn.ext 1233 599 51.4% 16-Feb-97 09:32:48 +Tools.info 17768 9850 44.5% 10-Dec-93 13:04:14 +GarbagePrefs 1202 520 56.7% 16-Feb-97 09:12:58 +GarbagePrefs.info 16248 8258 49.1% 10-Dec-93 13:04:18 +GCStat 1242 424 65.8% 16-Feb-97 09:12:58 +GCStat.info 27168 12290 54.7% 09-Nov-93 22:03:52 +Locate 39760 16253 59.1% 15-Feb-97 07:13:02 +MemTag 1585 949 40.1% 16-Feb-97 09:12:58 +MemTag.info 1233 592 51.9% 16-Feb-97 09:32:48 AmiExec.info -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 509846 203361 60.1% 20-Feb-97 11:17:54 72 files
