#define BANK ( VARNAME ) ( (uint8_t) & __bank_ ## VARNAME )

Obtains the bank number of VARNAME

Parameters

VARNAME Name of the variable which has a __bank_VARNAME companion symbol which is adjusted by bankpack

Use this to obtain the bank number from a bank reference created with BANKREF().

See also: BANKREF_EXTERN(), BANKREF()

◆ BANKREF

#define BANKREF ( VARNAME )

Value:

void __func_ ## VARNAME(void) __banked __naked { \
__asm \
    .local b___func_ ## VARNAME \
    ___bank_ ## VARNAME = b___func_ ## VARNAME \
    .globl ___bank_ ## VARNAME \
__endasm; \
}

Creates a reference for retrieving the bank number of a variable or function

Parameters

VARNAME Variable name to use, which may be an existing identifier

See also: BANK() for obtaining the bank number of the included data.

More than one BANKREF() may be created per file, but each call should always use a unique VARNAME.

Use BANKREF_EXTERN() within another source file to make the variable and it's data accesible there.

◆ BANKREF_EXTERN

#define BANKREF_EXTERN ( VARNAME ) extern const void __bank_ ## VARNAME;

Creates extern references for accessing a BANKREF() generated variable.

Parameters

VARNAME Name of the variable used with BANKREF()

This makes a BANKREF() reference in another source file accessible in the current file for use with BANK().

See also: BANKREF(), BANK()

◆ SWITCH_ROM

#define SWITCH_ROM ( b ) (_current_bank = (b), rROMB0 = (b))

Makes default platform MBC switch the active ROM bank

Parameters

b	ROM bank to switch to (max 255)

When used with MBC1 the max bank is Bank 31 (512K).
When used with MBC5 the max bank is Bank 255 (4MB).
To use the full 8MB size of MBC5 see SWITCH_ROM_MBC5_8M().

For MBC1 some banks in it's range are unavailable (typically 0x20, 0x40, 0x60).

Note: Using SWITCH_ROM_MBC5_8M() should not be mixed with using SWITCH_ROM_MBC5() and SWITCH_ROM().

See also: SWITCH_ROM_MBC1, SWITCH_ROM_MBC5, SWITCH_ROM_MEGADUCK

◆ SWITCH_RAM

#define SWITCH_RAM ( b ) (rRAMB = (b))

◆ ENABLE_RAM

#define ENABLE_RAM (rRAMG = 0x0A)

◆ DISABLE_RAM

#define DISABLE_RAM (rRAMG = 0x00)

◆ SWITCH_ROM_MEGADUCK

#define SWITCH_ROM_MEGADUCK ( b ) SWITCH_ROM(b)

Function Documentation

◆ remove_VBL()

void remove_VBL ( int_handler h )

The remove functions will remove any interrupt handler.

A handler of NULL will cause bad things to happen if the given interrupt is enabled.

Removes the VBL interrupt handler.

See also: add_VBL()

Removes the VBL interrupt handler.

See also: add_VBL()

◆ remove_LCD()

void remove_LCD ( int_handler h )

Removes the LCD interrupt handler.

See also: add_LCD(), remove_VBL()

◆ remove_TIM()

void remove_TIM ( int_handler h )

Removes the TIM interrupt handler.

See also: add_TIM(), remove_VBL()

◆ remove_SIO()

void remove_SIO ( int_handler h )

Removes the Serial Link / SIO interrupt handler.

See also: add_SIO(),; remove_VBL()

The default SIO ISR gets installed automatically if any of the standard SIO calls are used. These calls include add_SIO(), remove_SIO(), send_byte(), receive_byte().

The default SIO ISR cannot be removed once installed. Only secondary chained SIO ISRs (added with add_SIO() ) can be removed.

◆ remove_JOY()

void remove_JOY ( int_handler h )

Removes the JOY interrupt handler.

See also: add_JOY(), remove_VBL()

◆ add_VBL()

void add_VBL ( int_handler h )

Adds a Vertical Blanking interrupt handler.

Parameters

h	The handler to be called whenever a V-blank interrupt occurs.

Up to 4 handlers may be added, with the last added being called last.

Do not use the function definition attributes CRITICAL and INTERRUPT when declaring ISR functions added via add_VBL() (or LCD, etc). Those attributes are only required when constructing a bare jump from the interrupt vector itself (such as with ISR_VECTOR()).

ISR handlers added using add_VBL()/etc are instead called via the GBDK ISR dispatcher which makes the extra function attributes unecessary.

Note: The default GBDK VBL is installed automatically.

See also: ISR_VECTOR()

Adds a V-blank interrupt handler.

◆ add_LCD()

void add_LCD ( int_handler h )

Adds a LCD interrupt handler.

Called when the LCD interrupt occurs, which is normally when LY_REG == LYC_REG.

Up to 3 handlers may be added, with the last added being called last.

There are various reasons for this interrupt to occur as described by the STAT_REG register ($FF41). One very popular reason is to indicate to the user when the video hardware is about to redraw a given LCD line. This can be useful for dynamically controlling the SCX_REG / SCY_REG registers ($FF43/$FF42) to perform special video effects.

Do not use the function definition attributes CRITICAL and INTERRUPT when declaring ISR functions added via add_VBL() (or LCD, etc). Those attributes are only required when constructing a bare jump from the interrupt vector itself (such as with ISR_VECTOR()).

ISR handlers added using add_VBL()/etc are instead called via the GBDK ISR dispatcher which makes the extra function attributes unecessary.

If this ISR is to be called once per each scanline then make sure that the time it takes to execute is less than the duration of a scanline.

See also: add_VBL, nowait_int_handler, ISR_VECTOR()

Adds a LCD interrupt handler.

◆ add_TIM()

void add_TIM ( int_handler h )

Adds a timer interrupt handler.

Can not be used together with add_low_priority_TIM

This interrupt occurs when the TIMA_REG register ($FF05) changes from $FF to $00.

Up to 4 handlers may be added, with the last added being called last.

See also: add_VBL; set_interrupts() with TIM_IFLAG, ISR_VECTOR()

◆ add_low_priority_TIM()

void add_low_priority_TIM ( int_handler h )

Adds a timer interrupt handler, that could be interrupted by the other interrupts, as well as itself, if it runs too slow.

Can not be used together with add_TIM

This interrupt occurs when the TIMA_REG register ($FF05) changes from $FF to $00.

Up to 4 handlers may be added, with the last added being called last.

See also: add_VBL; set_interrupts() with TIM_IFLAG, ISR_VECTOR()

◆ add_SIO()

void add_SIO ( int_handler h )

Adds a Serial Link transmit complete interrupt handler.

This interrupt occurs when a serial transfer has completed on the game link port.

Up to 4 handlers may be added, with the last added being called last.

See also: send_byte, receive_byte(), add_VBL(); set_interrupts() with SIO_IFLAG

◆ add_JOY()

void add_JOY ( int_handler h )

Adds a joypad button change interrupt handler.

This interrupt occurs on a transition of any of the keypad input lines from high to low. Due to the fact that keypad "bounce" is virtually always present, software should expect this interrupt to occur one or more times for every button press and one or more times for every button release.

Up to 4 handlers may be added, with the last added being called last.

See also: joypad(), add_VBL()

◆ nowait_int_handler()

void nowait_int_handler ( void )

Interrupt handler chain terminator that does not wait for .STAT

You must add this handler last in every interrupt handler chain if you want to change the default interrupt handler behaviour that waits for LCD controller mode to become 1 or 0 before return from the interrupt.

Example:

CRITICAL {
    add_SIO(nowait_int_handler); // Disable wait on VRAM state before returning from SIO interrupt
}

See also: wait_int_handler()

◆ wait_int_handler()

void wait_int_handler ( void )

Default Interrupt handler chain terminator that waits for

See also: STAT_REG and only returns at the BEGINNING of either Mode 0 or Mode 1.

Used by default at the end of interrupt chains to help prevent graphical glitches. The glitches are caused when an ISR interrupts a graphics operation in one mode but returns in a different mode for which that graphics operation is not allowed.

See also: nowait_int_handler()

When testing for multiple different buttons, it's best to read the joypad state once into a variable and then test using that variable.

See also: J_START, J_SELECT, J_A, J_B, J_UP, J_DOWN, J_LEFT, J_RIGHT

◆ waitpad()

uint8_t waitpad ( uint8_t mask )

Note: Checks in a loop that doesn't HALT at all, so the CPU will be maxed out until this call returns.

See also: joypad; J_START, J_SELECT, J_A, J_B, J_UP, J_DOWN, J_LEFT, J_RIGHT

◆ waitpadup()

void waitpadup ( void )

Note: Use CRITICAL {...} instead for creating a block of of code which should execute with interrupts temporarily turned off.

See also: disable_interrupts, set_interrupts, CRITICAL

◆ disable_interrupts()

void disable_interrupts ( void )

inline

Disables interrupts

Note: Use CRITICAL {...} instead for creating a block of of code which should execute with interrupts temporarily turned off.

See also: enable_interrupts, set_interrupts, CRITICAL

◆ set_interrupts()

void set_interrupts ( uint8_t flags )

Clears any pending interrupts and sets the interrupt mask register IO to flags.

Parameters

flags A logical OR of *_IFLAGS

Note: : This disables and then re-enables interrupts so it must be used outside of a critical section.

◆ reset()

void reset ( void )

Performs a warm reset by reloading the CPU value then jumping to the start of crt0 (0x0150)

◆ vsync()

void vsync ( void )

HALTs the CPU and waits for the vertical blank interrupt and then returns when all registered VBL ISRs have completed.

This is often used in main loops to idle the CPU at low power until it's time to start the next frame. It's also useful for syncing animation with the screen re-draw.

Warning: If the VBL interrupt is disabled, this function will never return. If the screen is off this function returns immediately.

◆ set_bkg_submap()

void set_bkg_submap	(	uint8_t	x,
		uint8_t	y,
		uint8_t	w,
		uint8_t	h,
		const uint8_t *	map,
		uint8_t	map_w
	)

inline

Sets a rectangular area of the Background Tile Map using a sub-region from a source tile map. Useful for scrolling implementations of maps larger than 32 x 32 tiles.

Parameters

x	X Start position in both the Source Tile Map and hardware Background Map tile coordinates. Range 0 - 255
y	Y Start position in both the Source Tile Map and hardware Background Map tile coordinates. Range 0 - 255
w	Width of area to set in tiles. Range 1 - 255
h	Height of area to set in tiles. Range 1 - 255
map	Pointer to source tile map data
map_w	Width of source tile map in tiles. Range 1 - 255

Entries are copied from map to the Background Tile Map starting at x, y writing across for w tiles and down for h tiles, using map_w as the rowstride for the source tile map.

The x and y parameters are in Source Tile Map tile coordinates. The location tiles will be written to on the hardware Background Map is derived from those, but only uses the lower 5 bits of each axis, for range of 0-31 (they are bit-masked: x & 0x1F and y & 0x1F). As a result the two coordinate systems are aligned together.

In order to transfer tile map data in a way where the coordinate systems are not aligned, an offset from the Source Tile Map pointer can be passed in: (map_ptr + x + (y * map_width)).

For example, if you want the tile id at 1,2 from the source map to show up at 0,0 on the hardware Background Map (instead of at 1,2) then modify the pointer address that is passed in: map_ptr + 1 + (2 * map_width)

Use this instead of set_bkg_tiles when the source map is wider than 32 tiles or when writing a width that does not match the source map width.

One byte per source tile map entry.

Writes that exceed coordinate 31 on the x or y axis will wrap around to the Left and Top edges.

◆ set_bkg_submap_attributes()

void set_bkg_submap_attributes	(	uint8_t	x,
		uint8_t	y,
		uint8_t	w,
		uint8_t	h,
		const uint8_t *	map,
		uint8_t	map_w
	)

inline

Sets a rectangular area of the Background Tile Map Attributes using a sub-region from a source tile attribute map. Useful for scrolling implementations of maps larger than 32 x 32 tiles.

Parameters

x	X Start position in both the Source Tile Map and hardware Background Map tile coordinates. Range 0 - 255
y	Y Start position in both the Source Tile Map and hardware Background Map tile coordinates. Range 0 - 255
w	Width of area to set in tiles. Range 1 - 255
h	Height of area to set in tiles. Range 1 - 255
map	Pointer to source tile map attribute data
map_w	Width of source tile map in tiles. Range 1 - 255

Entries are copied from map to the Background Tile Map starting at x, y writing across for w tiles and down for h tiles, using map_w as the rowstride for the source tile map.

The x and y parameters are in Source Tile Map tile coordinates. The location tiles will be written to on the hardware Background Map is derived from those, but only uses the lower 5 bits of each axis, for range of 0-31 (they are bit-masked: x & 0x1F and y & 0x1F). As a result the two coordinate systems are aligned together.

In order to transfer tile map data in a way where the coordinate systems are not aligned, an offset from the Source Tile Map pointer can be passed in: (map_ptr + x + (y * map_width)).

For example, if you want the tile id at 1,2 from the source map to show up at 0,0 on the hardware Background Map (instead of at 1,2) then modify the pointer address that is passed in: map_ptr + 1 + (2 * map_width)

Use this instead of set_bkg_tiles when the source map is wider than 32 tiles or when writing a width that does not match the source map width.

One byte per source tile map entry.

Writes that exceed coordinate 31 on the x or y axis will wrap around to the Left and Top edges.

inline

Sets VRAM Tile Pattern data in the native format

Parameters

first_tile	Index of the first tile to write (0 - 511)
nb_tiles	Number of tiles to write
data	Pointer to source Tile Pattern data.

When first_tile is larger than 256 on the GB/AP, it will write to sprite data instead of background data.

The bit depth of the source Tile Pattern data depends on which console is being used:

Game Boy/Analogue Pocket: loads 2bpp tiles data
SMS/GG: loads 4bpp tile data
