PRL File Generation
B. 1 PRL Format
A Page Relocatable Program has an origin offset of 100H bytes that is stored on
disk as a file of type PRL. The format is shown in Table B-1.
Table B-1. PRL File Format
Address Contents
000 1-0002H Program size
0004-0005H Minimum buffer requirements (additional memory)
0006-00FFH Currently unused, reserved for future allocation
0100 + Program size = Start of bit map
The bit map is a string of bits identifying those bytes in the source code that
require relocation. There is one byte in the bit map for every 8 bytes of source code.
The most significant bit, bit 7, of the first byte of the bit map indicates whether or
not the first byte of the source code requires relocation. If the bit is on, it indicates
that relocation is required. The next bit, bit 6, of the first byte corresponds to the
second byte of the source code, and so forth.
