Synopsis

Structured VAX Assembly Language Programming, Second Edition,provides a complete, up-to-date introduction to VAX programming and the fundamentals of VAX architecture. The book emphasizes sound, structured programming techniques that are modelled in a number of new program examples. The text also features complete chapters on RMS, and the VAX VMS-debugger, including a new discussion of using the debugger in the screen mode. This is a comprehensive, well-organized text and reference for both students and professional programmers.Features * A complete chapter on RMS including the VMS sub-system used in high-level VAX languages for input and output. * Expanded chapter on the VAX-VMS debugger that shows how to use commands efficiently to moniter program execution, and how to use the debugger in screen mode. * Expanded coverage of VAX architecture fundamentals. * A structured approach to assembly language programming that reinforces structured programming concepts. * Many new program examples. This site also contains the two macro files formerly available at ftp://happy.uccs.colorado.edu/macro.
