Assemblers

• New assembler listings supported: "sjasmplus".
• Better support for z88dk-z80asm.
• New parameters "asm" and "srcDirs".
• '-eval' now evaluates also label names with a starting "_".
• Dropped support for label files. The labels are extracted anyway from the list file.
• Watches allow now more complex expressions not only labels. Now e.g. "dlistw+3" is supported.
• Changed appearance of memory viewer: Added a column header and a legend for the register colors.

Small improvements

• Requires ZEsarUX 7.2.
• Debugging can now start immediately after loading the snapshot file.
• Setting breakpoints from vscode without interrupting a running program.
• "startAutomatically" launch option working now.
• Option "loadSnap" replaced by "load". "load" allows for loading .sna and .tap files.
• "wpmem"/"assert" now disabled by default. It can be turned on manually or in the launch.json.
• ASSERTs now work similar to WPMEM. They are not combined with vscode breakpoints anymore.
• log configuration moved to the launch settings.
• socketTimeout configurable.

Fixed Event-Stream vulnerability

• Fixed Event-Stream vulnerability.
• Added breakpoint conditions that are translated into the ZEsarUX condition syntax.
• Added parsing for ASSERTs.
• New commands: "ASSERT enable|disable|status" (still experimental)
• "state save" now persistent.

z80dismblr

The z80dismblr has now been fully taken into use. z80-debug now treats memory areas without source code differently. It is not necessary anymore to advise z80-debug to do a disassembly in the launch.json file.
Therefore the "disassemblies" property has been removed.
Instead z80-debug now disassembles the code on the fly if necessary.

Sprites And Patterns

• Uses new (ZEsarUX 7.1) and fast memory breakpoints for WPMEM watchpoints, see https://github.com/maziac/z80-debug/blob/master/documentation/Usage.md#wpmem
• Use of z80dismblr for disassembly.
• Improved disconnection handling.
• New command "-sprites" displays the sprites in a new window.
• New command "-patterns" displays the sprite patterns in a new window.
• New option for "-exec": "-view" redirects the output from console to a new view.
• Experimental implementation for "-state save|restore".

Bug fixes (disassembly, breakpoints)

• Corrected setting of unverified breakpoints.
• Fixed error when fetching disassemblies.

Basic support for z88dk and others

• Settings cleaned up.
• Changing the program counter is now directly reflected in the UI.
• Memory viewer got an additional ASCII field.
• New debug command "-label" to output the number for a label.
• Labels and constants are now also extracted from the asm files. I.e. in most cases it shouldn't be required to add a labels file anymore.
• Formatting distinguishes now between 'small values' and 'big values'.
• Basic support for z88dk z80asm.
• Improved documentation of the list files.

Program Counter

Program Counter can be changed via menu.
Some smaller bugfixes.
Readme and Usage separated.

First release to market place.

Nothing else added.

Memory viewer/editor

• WPMEM: Persistent memory watchpoints added.
• Watches: now the size and type can be manually added.
• A memory viewer/editory has been added.
• console command to evaluate expressions/labels.
