Bug in Binutils 2.15 for the H8/300H ?


Hi,

>.h8300h		;directive for h8300h code
>.equ NUMBER, 0x80
>.equ NUMBER2, 0x70

>; 1st error:
>    AND.B	 #~NUMBER, r3l   ; this causes: "Error: invalid operands"

This is because in binutils 2.15 operand's size checking has become more stringent.
As per programming manual, with "and.b" instruction immediate value in the range 
+127 to -128 is required. The number ~0x80 results in the out of range. 
So assembler gives error.

You can try using following instruction.

    AND.B	 #~NUMBER:8, r3l
