Frame Allocations
mvBase
currently has 1023 frames available for use by system and 3rd
party software. The ‘modes’ (object code) for the software are
loaded into the ‘ABS’ frames (or absolute address).
Certain
frame number ranges are in use by, or reserved for, mvBase itself;
others are reserved for use by 3rd party products. These latter
frames are known as ‘User Frames’ for use by ‘User modes’ -
mvBase will never use these, although other 3rd party
products may.
We
do not reserve any of these user frames for a specific product.
3rd party developers are free to use any combination of them.
To avoid conflict with other 3rd party products, it may prudent
to make 3rd party products’ code relocatable.
Frames
reserved for USER modes
430-548 Except 489 There
are several other blocks of frames used by Mentor Software products.
If these will never be in concurrent use with a particular
3rd party product then they are also available:
549-575
Mentor/Link
620-660
CompuSheet
The
first choice for frame numbers to use should be the USER reserved
areas mentioned above.
