Coerce raw or named list to an AmigaBasicBMAP class object

Coerce raw or named list to an AmigaBasicBMAP() class object

Usage

as.AmigaBasicBMAP(x)

Arguments

x

When x is a vector of raw data, it needs to be structured as it would be when stored in a binary file (see read.AmigaBasicBMAP()). x can also be a named list, where the name of each element corresponds with a routine in the library. Each element should than consist of a list with 2 elements: The first should be named libraryVectorOffset' and should hold the numericoffset of the routine in the library (see details). The second element should be namedregisters' and should contain a vector of raw values refering to CPU registers used by the routine (see details).

Value

Returns a AmigaBasicBMAP() based on x

Details

An Amiga Basic BMAP file maps the offset of routines in Amiga libraries. This function converts the raw format in which it would be stored as a file into a comprehensive S3 class object. It can also convert a named list into an S3 class object. See Arguments' and Examples' sections on how to format this list.

Examples

## For the dos.library, the start of the bmap list would look like:
dos.list <- list(
  xOpen = list(
    libraryVectorOffset = -30,
    registers = as.raw(2:3)
  ),
  xClose = list(
    libraryVectorOffset = -36,
    registers = as.raw(2)
  ),
  xRead = list(
    libraryVectorOffset = -42,
    registers = as.raw(2:4)
  )
)

## Note that the list above is incomplete, the dos.library holds more routines than shown here.
## This merely serves as an example.
## This list can be converted to an S3 class as follows:
dos.bmap <- as.AmigaBasicBMAP(dos.list)
