TIB behaviour
Eelkhoorn opened this issue · 4 comments
When TIB is linked in dictionary (by adapting inc/defconf.inc: UNLINK_TIB = 0 ) TIB returns the address of the terminal input buffer, as expected.
When TIB is linked afterwords with "#include TIB" TIB returns a pointer to the address of TIB. This is confusing.
I think this has changed somewhere between release 23 and 28 and breaks code written for earlier releases using TIB.
I am afraid it does not. This is out/STM8L051F3/target/TIB from STM8eForth 2.2.28:
$8C46 CONSTANT TIB \ NVM STM8L051F3: addr. const. Terminal Input Buffer
CORRECTION. I checked with release 28 from april 5th. I just did a fresh clone and now it is solved:
$ cat out/MINDEV/target/TIB
$ $0350 CONSTANT TIB \ STM8L051F3: "TIB" Term. Input Buf. TIBLENGTH between SPPLOC and RPP
My apologies. This can be closed.
The good thing is that this bug has been identified not only once but twice. Open source quality control works! Apologies for the bug and thanks for reporting it!
