CALL / RET ... is that implemented ?

[oscarys]

Hi,

I try to compile perfectly valid code with a procedure call, but I get this weird message:

Syntax Error at 27:0 : call f1 : 'call' can be only used with procedures, f1 is not a procedure

I wonder how does the emulator determines that 'f1' is not a procedure, when it is a valid label in my code:

f1: 
push bp
mov  bp, sp
mov ax, ax
pop bp
ret

Moreover, I note that in the web app, bp is not syntax-highlighted, which is strange and makes me think of some implementation lacking.

Any clarifications are highly appreciated.

Oh,never mind .... I should have read syntax.md instead of assuming things. If anyone falls with this stone, this the way to declare a procedure:

def f1{
push bp
mov bp, sp
mov ax, ax
pop bp
ret}

Hey @oscarys , Apologies for not replying earlier 😓
As you have already found out, the way to write procedures is intentionally different. You cannot simply CALL any label, instead it needs to be defined as a procedure using def.

As for the syntax highlighting of bp, we are simply using react-syntax-highlighter and react-ace packages with their defaults for assembly. I'll try to work out if this is any issue from our side in setting them up, but if not, we can't really do much about it 😅

Again, apologies for late reply.
Thanks!
