rombuild only

A standard executable file that +is loaded by the kernel; this is the file server. All subsequent files +can be loaded through the file server.

As with all standard +executable files, this is loaded, relocated and stripped of its relocation +information.

section

rombuild only

ROMs can be sectioned into two +parts allowing the upper part of the ROM to be switched for language +variations and file patching. This is independent of the extension +ROM mechanism.

This keyword appears at the point in the obey +file where the ROM to be split. All files before this line appear +in the first (constant) section: Files after appear in the second +(patch/language) section.

SECTION2 SECTION2 <anything>

BUILDROM only

Provides support for rombuild's capability to create ROMs divided into two sections.

The +two sections are termed the upper and lower section. The upper section +can be replaced without needing to change the lower section. This +facility is most often used to put localised resource files into the +upper section. This keyword provides BUILDROM's support +for gathering marked obey source lines and placing them in the upper +section of the ROM.

All lines beginning with the SECTION2 keyword are removed from the .iby file and +are placed into a separate list with the SECTION2 keyword removed. When BUILDROM encounters the section keyword, the accumulated SECTION2 list is inserted after the section line, and subsequent SECTION2 keywords +are removed as they occur. If no section keyword is found the accumulated SECTION2 list is emitted after the end of the input file(s).

For +example:

LANGUAGE_CODE 01 +LANGUAGE_CODE 10 +DEFAULT_LANGUAGE 10 +file=sourcedir\myapp.dll destdir\myapp.dll +SECTION2 REM bitmaps for myapp +SECTION2 bitmap=MULTI_LINGUIFY( MBM sourcedir\myapp destdir\myapp ) +file=sourcedir\myengine.dll destdir\myengine.dll +section 0x800000 +file=sourcedir\example destdir\example +SECTION2 data=sourcedir\example2 destdir\example2 +

becomes:

file=sourcedir\myapp.dll destdir\myapp.dll +file=sourcedir\myengine.dll destdir\myengine.dll + +section 0x800000 +REM bitmaps for myapp +data=sourcedir\myapp.M01_rom destdir\myapp.M01 +data=sourcedir\myapp.M10_rom destdir\myapp.MBM + +file=sourcedir\example destdir\example +data=sourcedir\example2 destdir\example2 +
