I downloaded the source to Java 3.6a and tried to compile it. I
created a new project called java36a and included only a single file:
java.s

When I compile this, I get a few errors that are fixable. However, I
cannot seem to fix the following errors:

SLOAD. : 0: /SLOAD: Duplicate entry "CONTEXT" in modules
java36a.o and Suprom48.O
SLOAD. : 0: /SLOAD: Duplicate entry "USEROB" in modules
java36a.o and Suprom48.O
java.s: 227: *** ERROR: Illegal mnemonic ***
ExitVLM No Freaking space...
since initshit couldn't get 1 $
java.s: 468: *** ERROR: Illegal mnemonic ***
skipembed before actual string
java.s: 1060: *** ERROR: Illegal mnemonic ***
key1_sub write values for type 1
java.s: 1069: *** ERROR: Illegal mnemonic ***
key2_sub write values for type 2

ExitVLM can be found in the decom/decomp.s file and is a local label
within a CODE object. Somehow, Debug4x things its some sort of
mnemonic. I thought perhaps it may have thought that the comment
following the label might be the problem, so I added an '*' and yet I
still cannot get these errors to go away. I have tried a fresh install
of Debug4x with no changes in the errors.

Can anyone verify if this is a Debug4x problem vs a problem with my
own setup?

Hello,

Could you make your project public available ?
( That would save the time to set up the project. )
Or otherwise you could mail the dircetory to me and I would have a
look.

In SASM syntax you cannot have a comment on the label line.

HTH,

This is the problem. I went ahead and moved the comments and it
worked. Thanks!

Anyone else interested in tinkering with the Java source may want to
edit gentries.a and comment out
CONTEXT and USEROB, and add in an equate for OVER#2+UNROLL
