Jasmin-2.4 is a java assembler, it can be down loaded here....https://sourceforge.net/projects/jasmin/.....

1. cd to the jasmin directory (jasmin-2.4 the directory that contains the jasmin.jar file)

2. see the examples in the examples subdirectory

3. Use example HelloWorld.j from your Canvas Announcements. (The HelloWorld.j in the jasmin examples directory doesn't work). Modify the first line of code to be .class public HelloWorld (this will cause the class file to be put in the jasmin-2.4 directory instead of the examples subdirectory)

Don't let your editor save the file with a .txt suffix!

4.open a cmd window

5. Issue the command set CLASSPATH= directory> (this step should only need to be done one time per session)

6. To assemble the HelloWorld.j example:

java -jar jasmin.jar examples\HelloWorld.j

7. To run the HelloWorld example: java HelloWorld

Assignment:

See the Count.j example for how to print integers, then modify the HelloWorld.j example to write a jasmin program to display today's date in the following format:

Today is Month day, year........................ I need to edit code to run in command prompt and show the current month, day and year

heres the file that need to be modified

; Demo how to print ints and strings ; Prints "Hello 1 World!" ;

.class public HelloWorld .super java/lang/Object

; ; standard initializer .method public ()V aload_0 invokenonvirtual java/lang/Object/()V return .end method

.method public static main([Ljava/lang/String;)V .limit stack 2 .limit locals 2 ; 1 - the PrintStream object held in java.lang.System.out getstatic java/lang/System/out Ljava/io/PrintStream; astore_1 ldc "Hello " aload_1 swap invokevirtual java/io/PrintStream/print(Ljava/lang/String;)V bipush 1 invokestatic java/lang/String/valueOf(I)Ljava/lang/String; aload_1 swap invokevirtual java/io/PrintStream/print(Ljava/lang/String;)V

aload_1 ldc " World!" invokevirtual java/io/PrintStream/println(Ljava/lang/String;)V return

.end method

..................................................This is the count.j file.................................................

.class public examples/Count .super java/lang/Object

; ; standard initializer .method public ()V aload_0 invokenonvirtual java/lang/Object/()V return .end method

.method public static main([Ljava/lang/String;)V ; set limits used by this method .limit locals 4 .limit stack 3

; setup local variables:

; 1 - the PrintStream object held in java.lang.System.out getstatic java/lang/System/out Ljava/io/PrintStream; astore_1

; 2 - the integer 10 - the counter used in the loop bipush 10 istore_2

; now loop 10 times printing out a number

Loop:

; compute 10 - ... bipush 10 iload_2 isub invokestatic java/lang/String/valueOf(I)Ljava/lang/String; astore_3 ; ... and print it aload_1 ; push the PrintStream object aload_3 ; push the string we just created - then ... invokevirtual java/io/PrintStream/println(Ljava/lang/String;)V

; decrement the counter and loop iinc 2 -1 iload_2 ifne Loop

; done return

.end method
