Syntax error on a rept inside a macro.

Version Information

V3.5.1

Details

The compiler gives a syntax error on the invocation of a macro, which invokes a repetition. The

syntax error appears if the end of the rept block and the end of the macro are not immediate.

Example:

In the following test file, blank lines are inserted between endr and endm to demonstrate the

problem, but it may be replaced with actual code or comments with the same effect.

test.s:

.macro INCREMENT

add 1,r6

.endm

.macro COUNT

.rept 2

INCREMENT

.endr

mov r6,r10

.endm

.text

.org 0x0

mov 0,r6

loop: COUNT

jr loop

Command Sequence
