BYTEX

SUNDB86x Only

The BYTEX compiler directive allows the insertion of 8-bit values that represent machine code instructions within PL/B source code. These values perform instructions normally unavailable in PL/B. The instruction uses one of the following formats:

(1)	[label]	BYTEX	{code}
(2)	[label]	BYTEX	{code}:
			{code}:
			...etc.

Where:

label

Optional. A Program Execution Label.

code

Required. One or more control literals (binary, decimal, hex, or octal) containing 8-bit absolute machine code, Data Definition Labels, or a VARLIST of valid Data Definition Labels that are inserted into the PL/B object code.

Flags Affected: NONE

Note the following:

A Program Execution Label may be a {code} item that references an execution address. The compiler automatically inserts the address of the label, in correct byte order, in place of the referenced label.
All other rules pertaining to BYTE apply.
